As a non-American it’s strange to me that people with Middle Eastern/Mediterranean roots are considered “White”. Do they not face prejudice, then?

Where I’m from, people like Ethan, Hassan and AB are often judged based on their skin colour, cultural and religious backgrounds, language and/or accent… I feel like (but correct me if I’m wrong) the US has roughly 4 main “race” categories: White, Black, Hispanic and Asian. When you look at that from a US perspective, H3 is pretty homogenous. But it also prevents you from seeing the diversity that is already there. Also!! Love it when Hasan hammers home how much this shows that race is a construct.
