jewish is not a color

according to the many voices project, being jewish does not make a playwright of color. as I hang up with the staff to clarify my ethnicity (and be rejected from consideration), I turn on Charlie Rose where he is interviewing Michael Steinhardt who endowed the Jewish Life Network and has written "Judaism is in danger of becoming obsolete". A self described atheist, Steinhardt sees Judaism as a people not a religion. a dying breed indeed.

there is probably some grant that was received to fund the many voices project, where those of African, Latin, Caribbean, Pacific Island, Asian, East Indian, Arab, and Native American descent are considered, so I can't be too upset. it makes one want to have his voice heard.

thanks for listening.
