A point that I feel is being missed is that racism in the frum communities is not only against gentiles. The racism that I have witnessed has largely been directed against fellow Jews who look different than the “norm.” There are Jews of all colors and shades. I would love to see a frum world where parents and teachers tell their children not to stare, mouth agape, at others who look different than them and that “Jewish-looking” does not necessarily mean white.
