Jews are culturally isolated enough to effectively count as their own race.

Race is generally a misused concept because 99% of the time people actually mean culture, as anyone from any race can be part of a culture.

Right, when people are talking about white people being disproportionately represented (or under-represented) in high paying corporate jobs, they're definitely looking into the cultural background of those people and determining which ones fit "non-Jewish white" rather than looking at the black guy and putting him in the "not white" category based on appearance....

In my experience, you wouldn't know most Jews are Jews unless you start quizzing them about their religious practices.
