I know they say sometimes two pretty people can make and ugly child and vice versa but that is rare. Not saying it doesn’t happen because Thandie Newtons parents look umm well id rather not say needles to say she is gorgeous. However, I expected nothing less of Zoe both of her paren’ts are freakin hot! Esp her father! Come on this wasn’t a surprise. Child looks like the both of them!

Jewish isn’t really a race. People just don’t bother to indicate the tribe of Jewish because there are Celtic, Spanish, French, Middle Eastern, North African, Israeli, Turkish, Ethiopian, etc. Jewish tribes. But in most cases in the U.S., people refer to the Ashkenazis(Celtic(White) Jews). That’s what Lenny and Lisa are mixed with.

The whole “Jewish” categorized under race confuses the heck out of me. Is Jewish a race or not? How are Jewish tribes differentiated?
Is someone identifying as “Black Jewish” the same as if someone were to identify as “Black Muslim”? To me it seems that’s indicating religious background, but I think because the religion has become such a big part of the person’s ethnic upbringing or identification as a person that the term is used more loosely?

Duh! Semites (i.e. Jews) are a race (DNA in common) not only a religion!
