Brandy and David invite David E. Bernstein, professor of law at the George Mason University School of Law and author of "Classified: The Untold Story of Racial Classification in America," to the podcast. We will discuss the proposed new 'Middle Eastern and North African' (MENA) classification to be included in the US Census pushed by Arab American groups. What would this mean for the American Jewish community? Will Israeli Americans be considered part of a new MENA classification? Can Mizrahi Jews claim this distinction? What of Ashkenazi Jews who may feel closer to their Middle Eastern heritage than to a European one? And how could this new classification play out for those seeking a legal victim status?
