I saw the picture of her and Bobby with Sharon. The clothing, more like costumes, they were wearing looked more Nation of Islam than Jewish. Farrakan hates Jews. Why would he be close to a group which claims to be a lost tribe?

The real African Jews believed to be a lost tribe are still in Africa. I've read a couple of stories about them. It's very interesting.

Do you mean the Ethiopian Jews? They were flown out of that country by the Israeli government (it was a difficult operation because surrounding countries are very hostile to Israel) and brought to live in Israel. They do face some racism, but their lives are much better than in Ethiopia.

Are you talking about the Beta Israel? They are the Ethiopian Jews who were rescued to Israel and I think their tradition is that they are the tribe of Dan.
