I wonder if other ethnic groups have this feeling.

It is certainly an issue for some Jews (including myself). There is an internal debate going on within the community as to whether it is appropriate to be concerned about how we appear to the mainstream, or whether we should just go about our business and not worry about how the mainstream may interpret our actions.
I'm of the first school of thought -- plenty of ignorant people are talking/acting in the name of all Jews, and I want the world to know that they don't speak for me.
