Barack Obama vs the Black Hebrew Israelites: A Definitive Guide to 1West Hebrew Israelism
In 2016, NetFlix released 'Barry', a film chronicling young Barack Obama's stay at Columbia University in New York City. One scene shows the man who would later become the President of the United States debating a religious proselytizer on the street. This man was a "Black Hebrew Israelite." The "Hebrew Israelite" movement began in 1969 and was headquartered at 1 West 125th St. in Harlem (near Obama's apartment on W 109th between Amsterdam and Columbus). Christian apologist and researcher VOCAB MALONE creatively uses this mini-debate as a launching pad to explore this militant and mysterious sect. The timing is just right; this faith is been spreading like wildfire in most major city centers across the US. This book fills a void, as there are no major works on 1West Hebrew Israelism. Now a primer exists in 'BARACK OBAMA vs the BLACK HEBREW ISRAELITES' by Vocab Malone.
