The Jewish Golden Age Continues Part I: American Law
...Various congressional sub-committees and the Civil Rights Act put the spotlight on alleged Ivy League WASP Anti-Semitism after WWII, wiping away any vestige of such a practice. By 1971, at least 25% of Ivy League students and faculty were Jewish.
A cursory look at other Harvard Departments in the Social Sciences, Medicine, etc reveals that Jews remain roughly a quarter of the faculty. But in law, perhaps the most politically powerful discipline, they approach almost half of the professorship in many cases.
One 2017 study by Sepehr Shahshahani and Lawrence J. Liu found that 19% of all federal appellate judges officially professed the Jewish religion, showing massively outsized influence. By comparison, 45% of federal appellate judges listed their religion as Protestant, while 28% were Catholic, roughly in proportion with the prominence of these faiths among the US population.
Though many would dismiss the suggestion that Jewish judges could systematically exercise biases perhaps out of line with the general American population as anti-Semitism, a 2017 Cornell Law paper by Jeffrey Rachlinski and Andrew Wistrich found exactly that...

In 2019, it was found that 43% of “white” Harvard students were non-meritocratic admissions, such as the children of staff members or members of the “Dean’s Interest List,” where family members of students make large financial contributions to the school in exchange for their children being admitted...
Whether the Jewish community is happy with the current state of the American empire or not, there is no evidence that they are being excluded or persecuted in Ivy League schools or that Jewish involvement in US law is declining. While elite campuses and judgeships have become more racially diverse, it appears that this rise of minority representation has largely occurred at the expense of white Gentile representation. With no clear ethno-cultural majority in opposition, the more organized large Jewish minority suddenly becomes a plurality, exercising power more freely and authoritatively today than ever before...MORE...
