Hey #raceb4race I heard your conference was wonderfully stimulating and wish I could have attended! Is there any room for scholars who work on early modern Jews and antisemitism in your conversation? Asking for a friend (but I am also interested to know).
As someone who works on premodern Jews and Race, I really do not understand this question.Are there those who identify as Jews of color who work on race in the early modern period or those who identify as BIPOC who work on Jews as racialized in early modern?

or those who work on Jews as racialized in early modern who work on critical race theory.

(Outside of BIPOC, how would you define a Jew of Color? Does ashkenazic genealogy negate Latin American heritage? My Mexican husband says yes; his brother says no. & N. african, ethiopian, yemenite, iraqi jews? Victims of racism in Israel. Depends where you live, no?)

This has already been theorized in Jewish Studies. So I am unsure why we are discussing specifics here. If you are black but an Ashkenazi Jew you are a Jew of color. If you are Mizrahi you are a Jew of color. Etc.
