Our Black Classic Press co List P.O. Box 13414 Baltimore, MD 21203, A Young Press With Some Very Old Ideas We The Black Jews Foreword to the Black Classic Press Edition x mn ag ‘THE WORLD OF GENESIS ca, 1675 BCE ‘THE WORLD OF EXODUS ‘a, 1298 - 1232 BCE, c The two dates cited above, 1675 B.C.F.-1232 B.CE., are pri- marily related to the major dramas of Judaeo, Christian, and/or Islamic theosophy. Yet, these dates are much more recent than the “original belief and practice” of the Nile Valley High Culture (civilization). The revelation of this fact often causes religious zealots of Judaism to holler, “anti-Semitism,” and to place the word, “Black,” before the expression whenever an African Amer- i involved. Usually, the charge of anti-Semitism has brought fear to the minds of Africans in Africa, and those in the so-called diaspora. But this charge does not bring fear to most of us who are labeled imesponsible Negro (Black/colored/African American, etc.). And this response always results in the paranoic charge of Black/Negro anti-Semitism from European American Jews (white/caucasoid/semitic, etc.) in the United (racist) States of America. These charges, even against African American (Black/Africoid-hamitic, etc.) Jews, compelled me to write this new foreword to We The Black Jews: Witness To The “White Jewish Race” Myth, particularly because this myth has a solitary Purpose: “keeping the nigger” who refuses to be controlled “in his or her place”—as a slave, For as long as I can recall, white Jews in America have vehe- mently denied the existence of any legitimate African (Black/col- ored/Afro, etc.) Jews, recognizing only fellow Caucasian (Caucasoid/semitic) Euro-Jews from any place. Furthermore, white Jews have only conditionally accepted the Black Jews of North Africa and Southwest Asia. Thus, the so-called entry of Ethiop- jan/Aftican (or Black/Falasha, ete.) Jews into Israel under the nefarious terms, “Exodus” and “Moses,” fooled no one who is familiar with the history of the white Jews in Isracl and West Asia. From 1947 CE., white Jews, officially through Israel's Knesset (parliament), consistently denied “The Right of Retum” to Black Jews (so-called “Falashas"). Of course, white Jews from anywhere, everywhere on the planct carth, particularly from the former Soviet Union, were freely admitted, To add injury to insult, even the disgusting requirement that all Ethiopian (African/Black) Jews must be recircumcised (by Euro- pean/white Jews) in order to be accepted as Jews upon entering Israelis racist, To require all adult males ofthe Falasha community to have their “penis pricked,” symbolically or not, was and still is Jewish racism and religious bigotry. Such racist beliefS are no different than those inflicted upon European Jews by their fellow Caucasian Europeans, Christians, Muslims(Moslem) and athcists, ete., which eventually led to Europe's holocaust. On the other hand, not a solitary African (Black) woman, man, Oorchild of any religion was involved in any aspect of the genocide, holocaust and/or enslavement of Jews in Europe at any period, The opposite is true for European, Euro-English and Euro-American Jews who were committed to genocide, holocausts, and/or enslave- ‘ment of countless Afticans—Black Jews included. (See Joseph J. William's Hebrewisms of West Africa.) ; If“Iehovah (Ywh/God, ete.) is Truth,” then iis about time that ‘African (Falasha/Black, etc.) Jews tell the “truth” about the racism andor religious bigotry they (like myself) suffered from European (white/caucasoid/semitic, etc.) Jews, until the need for their phys ical presence as “buffer bait” was more than overbearing, thus, “Operation Exodus/Moses!” Now that the African American (not the “responsible Negro/A fro/colored”) community is aware of the fac that there are millions of Jews who are other than white in color, and also of different facial (physical) characteristics than the so-called Cauca- sian, it has become extremely necessary thatthe history of the Jews of both ancient and contemporary times be stated in a manner that includes African and Asian Jews. Itmust he noted that Judaism’s most important “revealer of God's (Jehovah's) truth” was, in fact, an African (or Egyptian) named “Moshe/Moses.” And most of what Moses knew about “Jehovah ‘vas in reality what he leamed from his fellow Africans of the Craft of Amun-Ra (“Mysteries System”) in Egypt, centered in the Grand ‘Temple (Lodge) at Waset (called “Thebes” by the Greck conquer- ors from ca. 332.B.C.E., and “Luxor” by the Arab conquerors, ca. 638-640 C.E. or ca, 18-20 A.H. See Second Book of Moses). ‘All of the sacred teachings originated within the minds of Black (African) men of the Nile (Blue/White) Valley and areas of the Great Lakes (Mwanza, Tanganyika, Malawi, ctc.). The “Golden Calf" was, in fact, Goddess Het-Heru (Hathor/Hator, etc.). Khnum, instead of Jehovah, was the first “creator of man and woman-God. ‘Amenhotep IV (or Akhen-Aten), rather than Moses, first pro- claimed the “one and only true God Aten.” These and so many ‘more of the sacred teachings which Moses learned from the priest- seribes of the Craft of Amun-Ra (“Mysteries System”) were re- corded before the I Dynasty, ca. 4100 B.C.E at ‘Sakhara, on agreat reserve of papyri. The best known of the sacred teachings is the Papyrus of Ami and Book of Coming Forth by Day and Night (or _ Book of the Dead, as translated into English by SirEmest A. Wallis Budge from the original Mdu Ntr (Medu Netcher) in 1895 CEVJAD). ‘The main tragedy of all this is that most of us cannot deal with “truth” other than that forced upon us by our past and present physical and mental slave masters and mistresses of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, those whose God we serve. How will all of the above, and more to follow in the main text of these combined two volumes, affect the current “curriculum of exclusion” and pending “curriculum of inclusion” in terms of Prayer in the schools, etc.? Will we be able to call any of these proven contradictions a lie, plagiarism, paraphrased information, stolen legacy, allegory, mythology, mere belief, pagan, heathen, devilishness, ctc.? Shall we particularly discredit those in the “sacred writings”of the former slave masters from Arabia (Asia), Europe, Euro-England, and Euro-America (north, central, and south), who are still in control of our minds by virtue of their descendants, who now preach about their own “chosen people” status to a “holy land,” here ar there? Judaism, Hebraism or whatever else anyone elects to call the practice of the current theosophy in the Holy Torah or Five Books of Moses (and Old Testament of the Judaco-Christians), must be ~ ready to face the 21st century CE, totally updated, minus the overthrows of Jewish racism and religious bigotry. Such practices ‘were inherited from the racists and religious bigots who wrote their sixth century CE. European version of the Babylonian Talmud, upon which all of the “anti-African (Black/Negro/colored/Afro, etc.) propaganda” seems to be based, In other words, the so-called “curse of Ham by his father Noah” was passed down for Canaan and all of his descendants to follow for eternity. Worse yet, the sign of the curse is the color Black! And all of this was sanctioned by God Jehovah! Thus, I, a former believing Gadite and son of a so-called “Falassa” (lately “Falasha") from Gonda Province, Ethiopia (Cush/Kush) East Aftica—one who must equally carry the so- called curse for my so-called negroid characteristics which alleg- edly make me a “Shankala” (native/A frican with Black skin, broad nose, thick lips, woolly hair, etc.) like those of Manen, the late Emperor Haile Selassie’s Empress—now repeat this so-called “curse”: ‘Now, I cannot beget the fourth son whose children I would have ordered to serve you and your brothers! ‘Therefore, it must be Canaan, your first born, whom they enslave, And since you have disabled me... doing ugly things in Blackness of night, Canaan's children shall be born ugly and Black! Moreover, because you twisted your head around to see my nakedness, your grandchildren’s hair shall be twisted into Kinks, and their eyes red; again because your lips jested at my misfortune, theirs shall swell; and because you ne-~ glected my nakedness, they shall go naked, and their male members shall be shamefully elongated! Men of this race are called Negroes, their forefather Canaan commanded them to love theft and fornication, to be banded together in hatred of their masters and never to tell the truth. In view of the above quote, 1, as a former practicing African (Ethiopian/Black or so-called “Falasha,” etc.) Jew ask: WHY HAVE WE CHANGED FROM RA AND OSIRIS TO ‘YWH/JEHOVAH AND/OR ALLAH? : Thave answered my question by assuring you that this volume contains only historical facts about African (Ethiopian/Falasha/Black) Jews. It is definitely not an endorsement of the theosophical teachings of Judaism (Hebraism, ete). Since Judaism is the first step from the Nile Valley Africans’ theosophical (spiritual) base of the so-called “Three Revealed Religions—Judaism, Judaco-Chris- tianity, and Judaco-Cristianity-Islam,” itis only rational to assume that they too must fall in line, For after all is said and done, there were and are “heaven” and “creation” concepts thousands of years before that of Iudaism (God Ywh/Yvh/Jehovah), Christianity (God Moshua Cristo Joshua the Anointed /Jesus the Christ) and Islam/Mohammedism (God /Al Tah).
