The New Black Antisemitism

We have already seen how Black Lives Matters activists have been expressing solidarity with the palestinian cause by identifying with palestinians, and in doing so have also demonstrated antisemitic views.

What may not be known to many is how there are also BLM activists who actually identify as the true Israelites.

Take this recent video for example, filmed at a recent Black Lives Matter March.

The guy who posted the video goes by the Hebrew-sounding name of Yisreael Ben Yehudah – although the name associated with his Facebook page is Tracy Allen.

But it is not enough for “Yisreal” to post how his people are the true Israelites – he needs to show how us Jews are somehow fakes. And in doing so posts outright Jew hatred.

Here is just a sample.

Needless to say, he seems batshit crazy.

He has also posted a number of videos of Black Hebrews from Dimona, Israel, including this one of Amare Stoudemire’s recent visit to the town.

This all raises the following questions for me:

  • How pervasive are these antisemitic views within the Black Lives Matter movement?
  • Are these also the views of the Black Hebrews who live in Israel? Do they also believe we are the synagogue of Satan?

  1. this isnt new
    you have the black hebrews living in israel.
    for years israel tried to expel them…but gave up
    while they dont appear as radical as their bros in the usa…they in fact are
    they are a dangerous cult
    and yes, they all hate jews
    i guess its ok that stoudamire thinks he is a hebrew (note, he never calls himself a jew…he isnt) and he has yet to voice jew hating views….but all black hebrews, all their different sects and camps…hate jews
    ever wonder why even the black hebrews who live in israel, while they are able to speak fluent hebrew for the most part, have trouble pronouncing biblical hebrew? they dont…they believe that is the correct pronounciation

  2. Why so much hate for the people who follow Judaism? They’re not preventing him from believing what he wants to believe.

      You mean for Jews? Because Yisreal Ben whoever and his buddies are following something, allright, but it ain’t Judaism. Or did you mean the hate that he is expressing toward Jews?

  3. This is simply history repeating itself. Many Jews were prominent in the Civil Rights movement in the 1940’s up until the mid-1960’s. A famous example is Stanley Levinson, who was close to Martin Luther King. We all remember the famous photo of Abraham Joshua Heschel marching with King in Selma, Alabama. However, by the mi-1960, the radicals, like Stokely Carmichael and others took over the movement and the Jews were pushed out.
    The same is happening today. Many young Jews want to be associated with Black LIves Matter and other such groups, but, again, they are being pushed out. The best example is the recent film made about the Selma march in which Heschel is neither shown or mentioned. Heschel’s daughter even complained publicly about it, but it won’t help. Jews are going to have to realize they are not wanted in the various radical movements exiting today.

    1. Which will definitely turn out to be a stroke of luck. It seems to take all the power of Heaven to keep “idealistic” young secular Jews from walking straight into hell with eyes wide open….
