This is an exploration of the interaction between African American religions and Jewish traditions, beliefs, and spaces. The collection's argument is that religion is the missing piece of the cultural jigsaw, and black-Jewish relations need the religious roots of their problem illuminated.

A glimpse into the diverse stories of Black Jews in the United States What makes a Jew? This book traces the history of Jews of African descent in America and the counter-narratives they have put forward as they stake their claims to Jewishness. The Soul of Judaism offers the first exploration of the full diversity of Black Jews, including bi-racial Jews of both matrilineal and patrilineal descent; adoptees; black converts to Judaism; and Black Hebrews and Israelites, who trace their Jewish roots to Africa and challenge the dominant western paradigm of Jews as white and of European descent. Blending historical analysis and oral history, Haynes showcases the lives of Black Jews within the Orthodox, Conservative, Reconstruction and Reform movements, as well as the religious approaches that push the boundaries of the common forms of Judaism we know today. He illuminates how in the quest to claim whiteness, American Jews of European descent gained the freedom to express their identity fluidly while African Americans have continued to be seen as a fixed racial group. This book demonstrates that racial ascription has been shaping Jewish selfhood for centuries. Pushing us to reassess the boundaries between race and ethnicity, it offers insight into how Black Jewish individuals strive to assert their dual identities and find acceptance within their respective communities. Putting to rest the simplistic notion that Jews are white and that Black Jews are therefore a contradiction, the volume argues that we can no longer pigeonhole Black Hebrews and Israelites as exotic, militant, and nationalistic sects outside the boundaries of mainstream Jewish thought and community life. The volume spurs us to consider the significance of the growing population of self-identified Black Jews and its implications for the future of American Jewry.

In 1997, M. E. R. Mathivha, an elder of the black Jewish Lemba people of South Africa, announced to the Lemba Cultural Association that a recent DNA study substantiated their ancestral connections to Jews. Lemba people subsequently leveraged their genetic test results to seek recognition from the post-apartheid government as indigenous Africans with rights to traditional leadership and land, retheorizing genetic ancestry in the process. In Genetic Afterlives, Noah Tamarkin illustrates how Lemba people give their own meanings to the results of DNA tests and employ them to manage competing claims of Jewish ethnic and religious identity, African indigeneity, and South African citizenship. Tamarkin turns away from genetics researchers' results that defined a single story of Lemba peoples' “true” origins and toward Lemba understandings of their own genealogy as multivalent. Guided by Lemba people’s negotiations of their belonging as diasporic Jews, South African citizens, and indigenous Africans, Tamarkin considers new ways to think about belonging that can acknowledge the importance of historical and sacred ties to land without valorizing autochthony, borders, or other technologies of exclusion.

The development of Afrocentric historical writing is explored in this study which traces this recording of history from the Hellenistic-Roman period to the 19th century. Afrocentric writers are depicted as searching for the unique primary source of "culture" from one period to the next. Such passing on of cultural traits from the "ancient model" from the classical period to the origin of culture in Egypt and Africa is shown as being a product purely of creative history.

Black Jews in Africa and the Americas tells the fascinating story of how the Ashanti, Tutsi, Igbo, Zulu, Beta Israel, Maasai, and many other African peoples came to think of themselves as descendants of the ancient tribes of Israel. Pursuing medieval and modern European race narratives over a millennium in which not only were Jews cast as black but black Africans were cast as Jews, Tudor Parfitt reveals a complex history of the interaction between religious and racial labels and their political uses. For centuries, colonialists, travelers, and missionaries, in an attempt to explain and understand the strange people they encountered on the colonial frontier, labeled an astonishing array of African tribes, languages, and cultures as Hebrew, Jewish, or Israelite. Africans themselves came to adopt these identities as their own, invoking their shared histories of oppression, imagined blood-lines, and common traditional practices as proof of a racial relationship to Jews. Beginning in the post-slavery era, contacts between black Jews in America and their counterparts in Africa created powerful and ever-growing networks of black Jews who struggled against racism and colonialism. A community whose claims are denied by many, black Jews have developed a strong sense of who they are as a unique people. In Parfitt’s telling, forces of prejudice and the desire for new racial, redemptive identities converge, illuminating Jewish and black history alike in novel and unexplored ways.

Biblical Heritage Awakening, is an exhortation to all Non-Awakened Black African people, nations, tongues, exiles, etc. throughout the world (which do not know Yahavah their Yaheem), who, have not as yet, considered, who they are (Black African Hebrews of the Nation Yisrael, of the BRHAL)? Where they are (still in exile bondage, of the Biblical Black African Hebrew Slave Trade)? And, Where there inheritance lies (promised Motherland of Africa/Yisrael)? Now, without the acceptance of this knowledge, the Non-Awakened Black African Nation (presently, known, and called, throughout the world by false byword lie terms, for their identity, as, So-Negroes, Blacks, Afros, Colored People, exiles, etc.), will always be, still dead to own heritage identity, lost without inspirational directions, without consideration for own inheritance, beliefs, and customs. Now, in order for the Non-Awakened Black African Nation of Yisrael, to become mentally sane, and physically free, they must go back to the basic, of accepting being descendants of their Black African Hebrew Ancestors, of the Biblical Black African Hebrew Slave Trade, and rejecting all falsehood lies and cursed byword terms for their identity, and proudly accept who they really are, Black African Hebrews of the Nation Yisrael, those that are awakened and not dead.

This book has a two-fold purpose; to demonstrate to Black and White Hebrews and Jews their undeniable kinship and to encourage a better relationship among Israelites through understanding of that kinship. In this seminal work, Dr. Malcioln attempts to answer the fundamental question of the relationship between Africa and the Hebrews or Jews. This historical study will show the contributions made before and after certain periods of Jewish dispersion from Africa.

"This book presents, one by one, the different groups of Black Jews in Western central, eastern, and southern Africa and the ways in which they have used and imagined their oral history and traditional customs to construct a distinct Jewish identity. It explores the ways in which Africans have interacted with the ancient mythological sub-strata of both western and African ideas of Judaism."--Résumé de l'éditeur.

Negro Hebrew Heritage and Enslavement By: Anthony J. Vance HAIL ALL YISRA’EL: THE AWAKENING OF THE HEBREW YISRA’ELITE IS AT HAND. Yehuwdah (Judah): the Negros; and Yisra’el: the Haitians, West Indians, Dominicans, Guatemalans to Panama, Puerto Ricans, Cubans, North American Indians, Seminole Indians, Colombia to Uruguay, Argentina to Chile, and Mexicans: THE TWELVE TRIBES OF YISRA’EL. It is time out for expecting anyone, anywhere, to do anything to help us out of our BONDAGE and OPPRESSION. The system we have been detained in for nearly 400 years is not the system that will set us at LIBERTY; our FREEDOM Yisra’el comes from the Most High. The system that teaches you THEIR HISTORY of WHITE SUPREMACY RACISM is not the system that will TEACH YOU HEBREW YISRA’ELITE HISTORY: PROSCRIBED EDUCATION has kept them in power and riches and has kept us powerless and poor. We, the Hebrew Yisra’elites, must teach our own children, in our own schools, and raise them up according to TORAH; if not, our children will continue to be incarcerated and used as FREE LABOR for the OLIGARCHS and the PLUTOCRATS. We must write our own BOOKS, using our own style of writing and language, not writing according to the dictates of an exclusionary system of INJUSTICE, a system steeped in HATRED. YISRA’EL, it is time to WAKE UP and realize who we are, and to WHOM we belong: we are the children of Abraham, Yitzhaq (Isaac), and Ya’aqov (Jacob). Shalom and Ahmein.
