Jews are an "underrepresented" group in Hollywood and must be labeled a "protected class" under the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences' new DEI standards, Jewish entertainment figures argued in an open letter to the Academy on Tuesday.
The entertainers, organized by Jew in the City's Hollywood Bureau for Jewish Representation, said that they support the Academy's goal of discriminating against whites but argued Jews should not be considered white because they have a separate "genetic identity."
Though some Jews are "white-passing," that's only because they "carry the DNA of their foremothers' oppressors," the group claimed.
"The absence of Jews from 'under-represented' groupings implies that Jews are over-represented in films, which is simply untrue," they stated. "There are very few films about Jews, aside from ones about the Holocaust."
