Jews & Slavery: Three Books by the Nation of Islam
(abridged by henrymakow.com)
This
now-famous book, relying primarily upon the works of mainstream
Jewish scholars, demonstrates in meticulous detail and with
formidable documentation that Jews were at the very center of the
trans-Atlantic slave trade as merchants, financiers, shippers, and
insurers. They also sold the products of slave labor on international
markets.
The
credibility of this underground classic speaks for itself. It relates
a fascinating, previously invisible story that every educated
American should know about.
According
to the Nation of Islam (NOI,) it is a “persistent but mythological claim that Jews
were either co-sufferers or innocent bystanders” during the
slaveholding era.
The
first third of Secret Relationship surveys the role of Jews in
colonial slavery in South America and the Caribbean, the middle third
that of slavery in colonial North America and the antebellum South.
The final 100 pages consists of an alphabetical list and capsule
biographies with extensive footnotes of dozens and dozens of
prominent Jews involved in slavery.
Their
role was not small. Jews were particularly active outside the present
borders of the US in Brazil and the Caribbean.
North
American Jews owned black servants and Jewish plantation owners in
the South worked their lands with black slaves.
“In
1820,” historian Jacob Rader Marcus wrote in 1989, “over 75
percent of Jewish families in Charleston, Richmond, and Savannah
owned slaves, employed as domestic servants; almost 40 percent of all
Jewish householders in the United States owned one slave or more.”
Refuting
arguments that US census records confirm only a “modest” level of
slaveholding among Jews, the authors point out that Jews were twice
as likely as white Americans to own slaves.
In
addition, Jewish merchants sold dozens, even hundreds, of slaves at
auction, turning over their chattel inventory as rapidly as possible
to maximize profits. Brief ownership by slave merchants of this kind
is not captured in census records.
Not
only were there no protests against slavery by Southern Jews, but
very few Jews anywhere in the United States protested slavery on
moral grounds.

Today,
the Nation of Islam writes, The Secret Relationship Between Blacks
and Jews “can be found in the collections of every major academic
library, including those of every Ivy League college and university.”
JEWISH REACTION
Since
its publication, the book has given the Jews fits. The ADL devoted a
lengthy hit piece to it, and no less than three book-length attacks
by Jewish authors have been “laundered” through mainstream
publishers including New York University Press and Transaction
Publishers. Hostile articles were also planted in scholarly journals.
Supportive
white academics like Yale philo-Semite and convert to Judaism David
Brion Davis were enlisted in the cause, as was Harvard University’s
resident Uncle Tom, Henry Louis Gates, Jr.
In
a degrading act of self-delegitimation, the American Historical
Association (AHA) issued a public statement at the behest of three
influential Jewish members condemning any historical account
“alleging that Jews played a disproportionate role in the Atlantic
slave trade.” The AHA statement is frequently cited as “authority”
to undermine the legitimacy of the book. In
the conventional slavery narrative of academia and the AHA, the Jews
of history vanish, replaced solely by Christian and European
evildoers….
It
is strange that prior to the Nation of Islam’s research, those who
had studied history and this critical aspect of the impact of the
trans-Atlantic slave trade on American society were perfectly content
allowing the blame to fall squarely on the shoulders of the White
Anglo Saxon Protestants in the South.
JEWS PROMOTED RACISM/SEGREGATION
The
primary purpose of volume two is to elucidate the hidden political,
economic, and social influence of Jews in the post-Civil War South
between roughly 1860 and 1925.
Their
influence was amazingly extensive. A
list of Jewish public officials by state, compiled from numerous
scholarly sources, covers 9 pages in small print.
Jews
were elected to office in the South in surprisingly large numbers.
Jewish officeholders helped create and enforce segregation laws.
An
abbreviated list of Jewish bankers in the south covers 8 pages. The
authors note that the Jewish banking network was not limited to the
South, but extended to every region of the continent where Jews
settled and opened businesses.
(Judah Benjamin’s face appeared on Confederate currency.)
There
is extensive discussion of both the Ku Klux Klan and white racist
Southern politicians, the attitudes of both toward Jews, and the
substantial Jewish role in Southern racism.
This
analysis raises intriguing questions about the structure of white
racialism.
For
example, it is well-known that the original Ku Klux Klan was
Freemasonic, philo-Semitic, and welcomed Jews as members. But a
persuasive case is made that even the second Klan of the 1920s was
not anti-Jewish.
Similarly,
several noted racist white politicians are shown to have been either
philo-Semites or indifferent to Jewish power (most were
philo-Semitic).
Such
individuals included US Sen. “Cotton Ed” Smith (D.-S.C.), US Sen.
Robert Reynolds (D.-N.C.), Eugene and Herman Talmadge of Georgia,
Sen. Theodore Bilbo (D.-Miss.), Democrat Josephus Daniels (anti-black
and repulsively philo-Semitic), Sen. Tom Watson (D.-Ga.), Sen.
“Pitchfork Ben” Tillman (D.-S.C.), and others.
George
Wallace is not mentioned because he falls outside the time period
covered by the book, but I am very familiar with his career. He, too,
was characteristically anti-black (prior to being crippled by an
assassin’s bullet) and philo-Semitic.
Clearly,
not all white “racists” are necessarily valuable assets to the
anti-genocidal cause.
Could
such a persistent pattern signify a fundamental divide in the
collective consciousness of white people? Perhaps it is fallacious to
assume that generic “racism” that warmly embraces (or ignores)
Jews on the one hand, and opposition to Jewish power on the other,
bear a deep or necessary relationship to one another. They may even
work at cross-purposes.
Finally,
a major theme of the book is that liens, sharecropping, and other
aspects of commercial law in the South facilitated Jewish (and white)
economic exploitation of blacks. These, it is maintained, were
adaptations of age-old Jewish laws found in the Talmud, which is
described as a “business manual for the Jewish people.”
At
the very least, the economic exploitation of Southern blacks after
the Civil War was ruthless and unscrupulous in the extreme.
JEWS SELLING BLACKS
Jews
Selling Blacks: Slave Sale Advertising by American Jews [14] (n.p.:
Historical Research Department of the Nation of Islam, 2010), 144 pp.
This
companion volume to The Secret Relationship Between Blacks and Jews,
billed as “the largest collection of Jewish slave-sale ads ever
published,” is an illustrated collection of 283 ads from American
newspapers spanning more than one hundred years.
It
shows Jews seeking to buy hundreds of blacks; Jews selling blacks
with warranties, bank financing, chasing runaways, selling “wenches,”
“families,” “gangs,” “infants”; and Jews selling entire
plantations, slaves and all. The Jews in question were leaders of
synagogues and upstanding founding fathers of today’s American
Jewish community.
A
brief YouTube promo for the book notes that “The
largest Gentile slave dealer was Franklin & Armfield . . . but
they only operated in the South for 8 years. Jewish slave dealers
operated in every place slavery existed . . . North America, South
America, the Caribbean, Europe, Africa–for 400 years.”
The
black scholars who wrote these invaluable books, while not friends of
the white man and partisans of their own people, for the most part
display admirable objectivity, coupled with a determination to view
the historical record in its entirety and full complexity. They could
easily have taken the safe, conventional route of repeating
anti-white slurs and ignoring the Jewish role entirely. But they did
not.
These
fascinating works bring to light facts about Jews and blacks that are
necessary for non-Jews to understand in order to view this key facet
of history in proper perspective.
The
books are partial antidotes to prevailing academic and media lies–and
corking good reads besides!
