Zionism and The Black Church: Why Standing with Israel Will be a Defining Issue for Christians of Color in the 21st Century

by Dumisani Washington

Zionism & the Black Why Standing with Israel will be a Defining Issue for Christians of Color in the 21st Century is a discussion of Africa’s ancient connection to Israel and the Jewish people, and the historic Black-Jewish synergy in America. It explains the foundation of spiritual Zionism among Black people, and why that foundation will always inform Black support for Israel. It uncovers the origins of an anti-Israel ideology that targeted the Black and African communities beginning in the 1960s, and how that strategy became a mainstay in school curriculum and political policy. Finally, Zionism & the Black Church gives reasons why there is a bright future in the Africa-Israel, Black-Jewish relationship, and charts a clear path forward.
