Yes, Richard Dawkins is Jewish. He was born into a Jewish family in Nairobi, Kenya, in 1941. His parents were both secular Jews, and Dawkins himself has said that he is an atheist. However, he has also said that he is proud of his Jewish heritage, and he has written extensively about the history and philosophy of Judaism.

In a 1998 interview, Dawkins said, "I was born Jewish, but I am an atheist. I don’t believe in God." He has also said that he is "not anti-religious, but I am anti-superstition."

Dawkins’s Jewish heritage has been a source of both strength and challenge for him. He has said that his Jewish heritage has given him a "strong sense of ethics" and a "love of learning." However, he has also said that he has struggled with the "burden of history" that comes with being Jewish.

Despite the challenges, Dawkins has said that he is grateful for his Jewish heritage. He has said that it has made him who he is, and he has encouraged others to embrace their own heritage, regardless of whether they are religious or not.
