Yep:

And why is this Hebrew shown with blue eyes?









Don't know. But here is a kid with blue eyes.

"Yesterday afternoon I was doing a shoot in East Harlem and this young girl came up to me with her mother. This girl had the most amazing blue eyes. I have never seen a African-American dark skinned girl with eyes like that before, I was in awe. And even stranger than that, her mother has one BLUE eye and one BROWN eye!"

hang around for more confirmation.
However, I'm not AA, so are you trying to change your cursed definition?
i thought you started off pointing out how your people are the cursed of the earth.


I will.

Nope. They fit biblical Prophecy as many other events do. I know non-AA's will never comprehend it and would rather avoid these parts in the bible than to study them. Then again they'd probably interpret it as jews and the holocaust or "Your" current problems.

I did. I mean didn't you bring up the blue eyes?

Ok. If you look at the picture only one man out of the four has those blue eyes. So a rarity? Yes. Kind of like those two kids I posted.

I was simply agreeing with you. Blacks rarely have blue eyes. Although, like the pics I posted, there are exceptions.

Vanessa Williams has blue eyes because both her parent's are mixed race, so it's not that rare. Plus the Egyptians probably painted the guys eye's blue because they saw it was an unusual thing among the mixed race people and it stuck out in the artists mind. Are we missing that the Canaanites are purposefully/obviously painted darker than the Libyans? And the fact that Hitler used the Hebrews mixed identity against the Jews should say something (Hitler did a lot of research).

Yes he did. Research is good. Even though those jews looked just like him. Um most mixed people are darker than whites. Going by what the guy said on the site. The Canaanite women had a light complexion and were very pretty. Not to take away from anyone else, but the most beautiful people in the world physically are mixed.

AA Isrealites?
AA Jews?

ewooo Undecided
anything but Africa huh?
seriously, what is an african and what would one have to be or do to fit in?
and would that fit the ancestors of AA's
who is the father or progenitor of the african and y is this not or never been a famous knowledge with other civilizations? meaning aksum has been mentioned by greeks. nubia by the romans, songhai, mali and ghana by themselves and mulatto and arabized arabs. yoruba, nupe,and hausa by the fulani jihad. never heared of the africans with the exception of the yemeni arabs who came with the tubba ifriqish who gave birth to (afariqah)and settled what is 2 day the hinterland of n africa. then the romans took and adopted the name (africanus) just like the greeks with ityopia.

lol@ the black Israelite claims. That stuff has been heavily debunked. Anyways even a mild familiarity with actual Jewish history would show there is far too much depth in that culture for them to be pretending or impersonating anything,

@FowardEast

My advice to you is to research into history and also research on the History of the books in the Bible, ie who wrote it, the time is was written and why it was written.
The verses that you posted, the same verses that the alleged Black Hebrew Israelites post have nothing to do with trans-Atlantic slave trade. Deuteronomy was prophesying the Jews captivity in Babylon. Also stay away from those allaged black Hebrew Israelites, they are very anti African and anti women.
Their theories are born out of hatrad to Africans; all their theories are completely unbiblical. The Bible never said such things; even the verse you posted did not support your theory.
People usually loose their identity when they are sold into slavery; it is not peculiar with AA's. People go through similar experiences; the slavery experience is generally similar irrespective of who goes through it. If one people(people A) describe their experience, it may sound similar to the experience of another people(people B) since both peoples have been enslaved. It doesn't mean that the book written about the experiences of people A is talking about people B.

The hallmark of good literature is to unite with the readers experience. When you read a good book, you may wonder wheather the author was writing about you. But He was not! The bible is a wonderful book; it unites all human experiences. Any body, people or group would find their experience in the pages of the bible. It do sent mean that the bible was specifically talking about them.

The same can be said rearding "american" culture, which is relativley new, Only time will tell.

There hasn't been peace in israel yet, so what does that say?
