The '''Khazar myth''' (officially the '''Khazar hypothesis of Ashkenazi ancestry''') claims that Ashkenazi Jews (i.e., those descended from an Eastern European bloodline) are not [[Judaism#Minhagim and ethnic groups| ethnically Jewish]] at all, but descend from the inhabitants of the medieval Turkic Khazar Empire. Myth-makers often harness this idea in attempts to discredit [[Zionism]] and/or to explain why the [[British Israelism|British]]/[[Christian Identity|Aryans]]/[[Black Hebrew Israelites|Blacks]]/[[Arab supremacy|Arab]]s/insert race here, and not the Jews, are the REAL "chosen people" of the [[Bible]]. Anti-Zionists, on the [[alt-right]] and elsewhere, often deploy the Khazar myth in an attempt to delegitimize Ashkenazi claims to being Jewish, and by extension Jewish claims to ancestral Israel.<ref>[https://archive.is/wip/B0i2t FYI, there is nothing semetic about israel or israelis. they are decended from Khazar.

Additionally there is the question of gene mixing which would inevitably occur when two populations lived close together. No matter how stringent social or religious constraints might be against either, mixed marriages and extramarital [[sex]] are still going to happen. An excellent example of this are [[African American]]s that have a much lighter skin-tone than is common in the West-African home of their ancestors. This is of course due to widespread marital and extramarital mixture with non-black populations in the US, and [[slaves]] often didn't [[Rape|have a say in the matter]]. [[Thomas Jefferson]] and his children are just one well-known example of this. In the case of Thomas Jefferson and Sally Hemmings, what often gets left out is that Sally Hemmings was Jefferson's wife's half-sister and was 3/4 white. She was a slave by accident of birth, and her six children with Jefferson were 7/8 white yet born into slavery, highlighting the whole absurdity and cruelty of the practice. [[Obama]]'s ''mother'' is another good example; it turns out that one of her ancestors happened to be among the first Africans in the colonies and arguably the first slave.<ref>Family of Barack Obama</ref> And this was a result of — at best — four centuries of living side-by-side, not twelve centuries as would be the case with the Khazars.
