“The most the startling book of the year...its research is unanswerable.” —Literary Digest.

Abernethy’s 1910 book “The Jew a Negro” has been analyzed by numerous modern authors studying race relations in earlier times in America.

Arthur Talmage Abernethy, PH. D., (1872 –1956) was a professor, Methodist pastor in New York and North Carolina, and a Democratic candidate for congress in North Carolina. He was a gifted speaker and author a score of historical books, as well as being the youngest son of the founder of Rutherford College. He was elected to the American Association for the Advancement of Science and became the poet laureate of North Carolina.

Abernethy’s 1910 book “The Jew a Negro” has been analyzed by numerous modern authors studying race relations in earlier times in America.

For example, the 2006 “Jewish Roots in Southern Soil: A New History” notes:

“One southern writer, the North Carolina minister Arthur T. Abernethy, published an entire book arguing that ‘the Jew of to-day is essentially Negro in habits, physical peculiarities and tendencies." In rare cases, ... Jews were ... grouped with blacks.’”

The 2006 book “The Price of Whiteness: Jews, Race, and American Identity” states:

“Published in 1910 by the North Carolina minister and professor Arthur T. Abernethy, The Jew a Negro argued that ancient Jews had thoroughly mixed with neighboring African peoples, leaving little significant difference between the Jewish and Negro types. As the Jews migrated to more temperate climes, their skin lightened and they became successful, but their essential racial similarity to blacks remained unaltered."

Reviews for The Jew a Negro

[Serene Victoria · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

It's only racist when it's not against black people at the end of the day.

[Serena · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

Interesting ..... especially the first chapters linking such familiar terms with actual persons such as 'Boaz' and I liked the content as it confirms my own conclusions that the Jews are a mix of all races but primarily negroid and I have read at least one account of the mixing with Ethiopians: his conclusions are fair. if harsh, as well - however unpalatable in light of intense propaganda to the contrary. The influence of these nomads with the West has been extreme degeneration of the natives to the extent they cannot psychologically, morally, intellectually or spiritually be considered 'one people' any longer: the general 'working class' contains a high contingent of damaged people by intentional design of hostile enemy invaders - the parasitic non-working types who've cast their web as a trap around the world.

Somebody claims made in his book on nothing short of racist.

[E. Harris · Rating: 2 out of 5 stars]

Though the author claims to be impartial, he is quite partial and RACIST in his conclusions. While some of his information is correct,It's too bad that much of his theological and historical musings are only rooted in his own vein imaginations.
