About this audiobook
“The most the startling book of the year...its research is unanswerable.” -Literary Digest
Abernethy’s 1910 book “The Jew a Negro” has been analyzed by numerous modern authors studying race relations in earlier times in America.
Arthur Talmage Abernethy, PH. D., (1872 –1956) was a professor, Methodist pastor in New York and North Carolina, and a Democratic candidate for congress in North Carolina. He was a gifted speaker and author a score of historical books, as well as being the youngest son of the founder of Rutherford College. He was elected to the American Association for the Advancement of Science and became the poet laureate of North Carolina.
Abernethy’s 1910 book “The Jew a Negro” has been analyzed by numerous modern authors studying race relations in earlier times in America.
For example, the 2006 “Jewish Roots in Southern Soil: A New History” notes:
“One southern writer, the North Carolina minister Arthur T. Abernethy, published an entire book arguing that ‘the Jew of to-day is essentially Negro in habits, physical peculiarities and tendencies." In rare cases, ... Jews were ... grouped with blacks.’”
The 2006 book “The Price of Whiteness: Jews, Race, and American Identity” states:
“Published in 1910 by the North Carolina minister and professor Arthur T. Abernethy, The Jew a Negro argued that ancient Jews had thoroughly mixed with neighboring African peoples, leaving little significant difference between the Jewish and Negro types. As the Jews migrated to more temperate climes, their skin lightened and they became successful, but their essential racial similarity to blacks remained unaltered."

The Black Hebrew Israelites are African Americans who think they are the "Biblical Jews". There is not one shred of evidence to suggest this conspiracy theory is true. No Jews ever crossed the Saharan Desert. Genetic science proves that African Americans have zero Levantine ancestry. The thing with all these "black hebrew israelite" books is that the authors never cite any legitimate historical evidence for their colorful (fabricated) fairytales. This is a book of intricate lies about the Jews.

The Hebrews and Jews were always white…they were never black. Blacks want desperately to believe that they are the Hebrew Israelites of the Bible but in fact they are not. Blacks do not fulfill any covenant promises or blessings of God to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Where is the great black nation? There is none. Whites on the other hand fulfill all the Bible promises and blessings of God to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Blacks tend to misunderstand and misinterpret bible verses and this is what leads them to believe they are the Israelites but their history proves them wrong. “Her Nazarites (Israelites) were purer than snow, they were WHITER than milk, they were more RUDDY (Red, to blush) IN BODY than rubies, their polishing was of sapphire:” Lamentations 4:7 KJV
