Hebrew Israelite

Hebrew Israelites, also known as Black Hebrew Israelites, are people, particularly among some African Americans, who believe they are descendants of the ancient Israelites. They hold that their lineage can be traced back to the biblical tribes of Israel. Their beliefs and practices vary widely, with some adhering to traditional Jewish laws and others combining elements of Judaism, Christianity, and other spiritual practices. Some groups identify as Jewish, while others do not. It's important to note that not all individuals or groups within this movement hold the same beliefs or follow the same practices.
