Hello and welcome to my website We Thought They Were White. My
name is Dontell Jackson, and like many African-Americans, I was brought
up in a culture deeply infused with propaganda designed to lay the blame
for all of the black race's ills on the white man. It was not until I began
looking into the actual history of blacks, whites, and other races in
America, that I came to realize that many if not most of the resentment
that African-Americans harbor regarding our long history of abuse and
exploitation has been intentionally misdirected by those who are most
responsible for it, to shift the blame away from themselves as a people
onto the white race who they regard as their enemies.
The reality is that the white race had little to do with the slave trade that
took our ancestors away from Africa and sold them into bondage in the
New World. That crime was committed not by White Europeans, but by
Jews who were engaged in transatlantic commerce between the Old
World and the Americas where they hoped to establish a New Jerusalem from which to rule the world by way of
exploiting all races who were not members of their tribe of "chosen people." In their efforts to accomplish that
goal, the white race has been hoodwinked and manipulated as unsuspecting pawns almost as much as the black
race has been.
Blacks have been purposely misled by the Jewish people who, in previous centuries, built their fortunes in the
transatlantic slave trade, and who continue to manipulate and exploit us even today. Because most black people
make no distinction between Jews and whites, it is easy for the Jews to evade justice and escape the blame for
the wrongs that they have inflicted on our people for centuries by convincing blacks that it was the white man
who did it. In most cases the vast majority of the white race had nothing to do with slavery or other crimes that
have been committed against our people. Whites were and continue to be exploited and manipulated by the
Jews, the same as blacks, and their race is even more hated by the Jew, where blacks are simply disregarded by
the Jews with indifference, as are other races. We are all simply pawns to the Jews who have no other use for us
beyond being a source of profit to them and a weapon that can be used to help destroy whites, who they see as
their sworn enemies, by encouraging us to breed with them until there are no longer any whites left.
I would like to invite all of my black brothers and sisters to join me in untangling the lies, deceptions and half-
truths that have been foisted upon us as a race, and to explore the true history of what has been done to us as a
people by those who were more than happy to encourage us to think these wrongs were committed against us
by whites, when in reality those crimes were carried out by Jews.
Please feel free to share the information that I have presented on this site with as many of your friends, relatives,
and associates as possible, so that we as a people can gain greater freedom through knowledge of the truth
which is the only thing that can set us free from the state of subjugation, manipulation, and exploitation at the
hands of those who have and who continue to deceive us. Let us educate ourselves as a people by sharing this
knowledge of the truth among all of our race so that we can at last break free of the bondage of the lies and
superstition that have enslaved our minds and our spirits.
WHO ARE THE
JEWS?
A race of merchants and traders, like the ancient Phoenicians who
preceded them in their occupation of Canaan and their establishment of
trade throughout the Mediterranean, the Jews traveled far and wide in
search of wealth and exotic riches. Long before the first white man set
foot in sub-Saharan Africa, Jews living in Sena, Yemen, are known to
have come to Ethiopia as early as 500 BC in search of gold,
intermarrying with African women, and becoming the ancestors of the
Lemba tribe, whose descendants continued to practice Judaism and
went on to build Great Zimbabwe, a medieval stone fortress whose
construction began as early as the 11th century.
Many people today consider the Jews to be members of the white race,
since centuries of exile and intermarriage with Europeans has lightened
their complexion to a certain extent, but in reality the Jews are members
of the Semitic race that is native to the Arabian sub-continent and they
are Afro-Asiatic in origin, like their close cousins the Palestinians, the
Lebanese, the Jordanians, the Saudis, the Syrians, and other Arabic
tribes.
The Ethiopian Bible is one of the few written texts, outside of the Dead Sea Scrolls, which includes the Book of Enoch, an ancient Hebrew
text that relates how a group of angels disobeyed the prohibition against intermarrying with mortal women, and how they spawned a race of
cannibalistic giants who wrecked havoc on earth devouring both man and beast, which ultimately had to be destroyed in the time of Noah by
the flood. The book of Enoch also reveals that the fallen angel who was singled out for punishment for his part in this disaster was named
Azazel, who was imprisoned under the earth to remain there until the Day of Judgement when he would finally be destroyed along with death
and the grave, a legend which seems to be the origin of the Christian belief in the devil.
IRAN
Judea, the land from which the Jews take their name, was located in the Levant in what is today the present state of Israel on the
Mediterranean coast that lies beyond Jordan, along the western edge of Arabia, bordering on Egypt in northeastern Africa. There the Jews
lived for nearly 1000 years until they were eventually expelled and driven into exile by the Romans against whose rule the Jewish people
repeatedly rebelled. In consequence of these rebellions, the Roman Empire crushed the Jewish uprisings, destroying their most sacred site,
the temple in Jerusalem in 70 AD, and driving the Jews out of Judea, sending them wandering throughout other parts of the Roman Empire.
The Roman siege of Jerusalem and the destruction of the temple in 70 AD
Once the Jews had been driven out of Jerusalem, they soon re-established their former trade connections and set themselves up as
merchants and traders operating throughout the Roman Empire and abroad, continuing to practice their native religion of Judaism and
refusing to assimilate into the societies that they settled in and profited from. They also brought with them the recently formed Jewish cult of
Christianity which soon spread outside of the Jewish diaspora and was adopted by many members of the slave class in ancient Roman
society who found Christianity's doctrine of equality and brotherhood as appealing as the Christian admonishment condemning those who
sought to increase their worldly riches and power over others. Christianity was brought to Ethiopia by Frumentius, a Lebanese-born
Christian who became the first Bishop of Axum, and saw Christianity become the state religion of Ethiopia in the year 330 AD.

of Roads and Kingdoms. Other trade routes of the period shown in purple
Wherever the Jews settled they soon garnered the animosity of those who they lived among, owing to their unscrupulous business practices
and usury. Writing in the first century, the Roman geographer Strabo said of them: "These Jem have penetrated into every city, and it would
be difficult to find a single place in the inhabited world that has not received this race, and vtfiere it has not become master. "
The first century Roman historian Tacitus also held a similarly unfavorable opinion of them, saying: "The practices of the Jem are
malevolent and despicable, and have entrenched themselves by their very degeneracy. Deviants of the most depraved kind vtfio had no
use for the religion of their predecessors, they took to collecting dues and contributions in order to smll the Jewsh treasury; and other
reasons for their increasing malth may be found in their unrelenting loyalty and eager nepotism tomrds fellow Jem. But all the rest of
the world they hold in contempt with the hatred reserved for enemies. They will not feed or intermarry with gentiles. Despite being overtly
lustful as a race, the Jem shun carnal dealings with women foreign to their tribe. Among their own kind however, nothing is forbidden.
They have adopted the practice of circumcision to show that they are different from others. Those seeking to convert to Judaism adopt
the same practices, and the very first lesson they are taught is to despise the gods, shed all feelings of patriotism, and consider parents,
children and brothers as readily expendable. Homver, the Jem make certain that their population increases."
According to the 9th century Persian geographer, Ibn Khordadbeh in his The Book of
Roads and Kingdoms, Jewish merchants embarking from the ports of southern
France, would carry cargoes of slaves, brocades, and furs to the markets of
Constantinople, Alexandria, and Damascus. The more venturesome would then
proceed by caravan across the Fertile Crescent and sail from the Persian Gulf as far
as India and China, to return with "musk, aloe, wood, camphor, cinnamon, and other
products of the eastern countries" for distribution in the lands to the West.
Long before Christianity was introduced to Europe by the religion's Jewish founders,
Jews from Israel had already established themselves in parts of what was the ancient
Roman Empire, as merchants, money-lenders, traders, actors, and entertainers; often
traveling from village to village plying their trade and accumulating wealth. With the
adoption of Christianity as the official state religion of the Roman Empire in the 4th
century AD, the Jews who had migrated to Europe emerged as the principle source of
financing, as the Christian Church strictly forbid Christians from charging interest on loans; but the Jews were exempt from this prohibition
and were allowed to freely engage in usury, accumulating vast fortunes through the interest they charged on the money they lent.
In many cases even the crowned heads of European royalty found themselves deeply indebted to the Jews due to their borrowing money to
finance their frequent wars and the lavish courtly lifestyle. This led to the Jews sometimes acquiring high ranking positions of political power
and influence in the courts of European government, but it also led to the Jews being repeatedly banished from nearly every country in
Europe by rulers who found themselves too deeply in debt to their Jewish financiers.
Following the expulsion of the Jews from Spain in 1492, and from Portugal in 1497, many Sephardic Jews living in those countries sought to
avoid expulsion under the pretext of ostensibly converting to Catholicism and becoming known as "conversos" or "marranos", while others
emigrated to the Dutch Republic. There they called themselves gente del linaje ("People of the (Jewish) lineage"), or homens da nagao,
("Men of the (Jewish-Portuguese) Nation"). The Netherlands gained independence from Spain in 1648 as a result of the Eighty Years War,
during which time a considerable number of Marrano merchants settled in London and formed there a secret congregation, at the head of
which was Antonio Fernandez Carvajal. They conducted a large business with the Levant, East and West Indies, Canary Islands, and Brazil,
and above all with the Netherlands, Spain, and Portugal. The Dutch West India Company, a corporation invested in by a number of wealthy
Jewish shareholders, sent 200 Jews to colonize Brazil in 1642. By the mid-1640s, approximately fifteen hundred Jewish inhabitants resided
in the areas of northeastern Brazil controlled by the Dutch, where they established two congregations and employed the first rabbi in the
Americas.
By the late Middle Ages Jews in Europe had set up trade guilds, which functioned as cartels to control and regulate the practice different
trades in a particular city. These guilds were similar to unions in that they existed to direct business to those who belonged to them, while
directing business away from those who were not members. This allowed the Jews to organize themselves and work together to undermine
their competition - gentile business owners. When moving to a new city, Jews would seek out the guild representing their particular
profession (whether it was silver or gold smithing, wine and spirits, the garment industry, stationers and printers, or whatever trade that they
made their living at), and the other Jews in the guild would decide whether or not they would allow them to join the guild. If they determined
that the person seeking to join the guild was a Jew, then they were welcomed as members by their fellow Jews. If they were gentiles
however, they were usually blackballed and kept out of the guild unless the Jews had a reason for wanting them to join their guild - i.e. if they
had connections that would be useful to the Jews.
By the early 1600s, there had been several attempts to establish a permanent British colony in North America for the purpose of securing
material riches from the New World. The first of these, the Roanoke colony, chartered by Sir Walter Raleigh in what is now North Carolina in
1584, failed, as had the Popham colony which was established in New England in what is now Maine in 1607 by the Plymouth Company,
while the Jamestown Colony, also established in 1607 by the London Company in Virginia survived. Because of the failure of the Popham
colony in New England, which had been abandoned by 1608, the shares of the Plymouth Company held by its stockholders had plummeted
in value. This situation did not go unnoticed by a certain group of financial opportunists who called themselves the Company of Merchant
Adventurers, which by that time had become heavily infiltrated by Jewish speculators operating a trade cartel which covered much of Europe
and extended overseas.
It was to the Company of Merchant Adventurers that the group of religious dissenters known as the Pilgrims went looking for financial
backing, indenturing themselves to them as colonial laborers in return for the Merchant Adventurers covering the cost of their chartered
passage to the New World, where the Pilgrims hoped to settle on a tract of land that they had obtained a charter for in Virginia from the
London Company. Having at their disposal a group of earnest and willing laborers who had indentured themselves as colonists, the
Company of Merchant Adventurers saw the opportunity to buy up stock in the failed Plymouth Company of New England at a bargain, and
then develop a colony in New England by using the Pilgrims as the colony's laborers, which meant that the Pilgrims ended up being settled
not in their intended destination on the warm and fertile shores of Virginia, but hundreds of miles to the north on the cold and stony shores of
Massachusetts. Thus New England was established by means of the unscrupulous conniving and deception of ruthless, manipulative,
Jewish financial speculators.
In 1621 a Jew by the name of Elias Legarde arrived in Jamestown, Virginia, aboard the ship Abigail, having been brought over from France
by Anthonie Bonall to assist in the wine-making industry begun by some of the early colonists of Virginia. In 1649 a Sephardic Jew named
Solomon Franco arrived in Massachusetts from the Netherlands as an agent for Immanuel Perada, a Jewish merchant based in Holland.
Franco had been sent to Boston to deliver supplies ordered by Edward Gibbons, a major general in the Massachusetts militia. When
Franco attempted to collect payment from Gibbons for delivering the ordered goods, Gibbons refused saying that he had already paid
Franco's employer, Immanuel Perada, for both the merchandise and the cost of shipping. The Massachusetts General Court ruled on May 6,
1649 that Franco was to be expelled from the colony, granting him "six shillings per week out of the Treasury for ten weeks, for sustenance,
till he can get his passage to Holland."
Apart from their involvement in the Company of Merchant Adventurers, Jews owned controlling stock in the Dutch West India Company,
which sent 200 Jews to colonize Brazil in 1642. By 1646, approximately fifteen hundred Jewish inhabitants resided in the areas of
northeastern Brazil controlled by the Dutch, where they established two congregations and employed the first rabbi in the Americas. Among
the members of the governing body of the Dutch West India Company were a number of wealthy Sephardic Jewish merchants who had
become shareholders in the venture, having contributed more than thirty-six thousand guilders to the colony's initial capital. By 1658 these
included: Abram Isaac Perera, Andres Cristoffel Nunes, Abrara Isaac Bueno, Bento Osorio, Joseph d'Acosta, Louys Rodrigues de Sousa,
and Ferdinando Dias de Britto. By April 1658 they were joined by their fellow Jews: Francisco Vazde Crasto, Francisco lopo Henriques,
Balth'r Alvares Naugera, Josepho de los Bios, Ruij Gommes Frontiera, Aron Chamis Vaz, Dionis Jennis, Diego Vaz de Sousa. The
foregoing names are indicated as Jewish by a different style of writing than the other names in the lists, the 1656 list having the word
"Jooden" or "Joode" opposite the names of Perera, Nunnes, Bueno and Osorio, and a later list in 1671 mentioning some of the other
names as those of Jews. For March 1671 the following names occur under the heading of "Hebreen," or "Hebrews": Abraham Isaac Perera,
Simon Louis Rodrigues de Souza, Aaron Chamiz Vaz, Jacob de Pinto, Jeronimo Nunes da Costa, Jacomo Fernando Ozorio, and Abraham
Cohen.
When their colony in Recife, Brazil, fell to the Portuguese, the Jews fled from the Portuguese Inquisition in Brazil and headed for the Dutch
West India Company's colony of New Amsterdam in what is now New York, in 1655. The Dutch governor of New Amsterdam wrote to the
board of Directors asking for permission to expel the Jews from the New Amsterdam colony because of their unscrupulous trade practices
which were hurting gentile-owned businesses in the colony, and the directors of the Dutch West India Company told Stuyvesant that there
was nothing they could do, that the Jews were to be allowed to stay there because the Dutch West India Company was controlled by Jewish
stock-holders.
Having been prevented by ordinances issued by Governor Stuyvesant from engaging in the domestic economy, the Jews quickly discovered
that the territory inhabited by the Indians would be a fertile field. There were no laws preventing the Jews from trading with the Indians. In
1656 a Sephardic Jew named Jacob Lumbrozo arrived in Maryland and established himself as a plantation-owner, merchant, Indian-trader,
and a medical doctor. By 1661 Asser Levy, a Dutch Jew who arrived in New Amsterdam in
JEWS AND THE SLAVE
TRADE
According to an interview given by Orthodox Rabbi Lody van de Kamp to the Jewish Telegraphic Agency newspaper on December 26,
201 3: “Money was earned by Jewsh communities in South America, partly through slavery, and went to Holland, vtfiere Jewsh bankers
handled it.. ..In one area ofvtfiat used to be Dutch Guyana, 40 Jewsh-owied plantations i^ere home to a total population of at least 5,000
slaves,” he says. “Known as the Jodensavanne, or Jewsh Savannah, the area had a Jewsh community of several hundred before its
destruction in a slave uprising in 1832. Nearly all of them immigrated to Holland, bringing their accumulated wealth with them."
They came with ships carrying African blacks to be sold as slaves. The traffic in slaves was a royal monopoly, and the Jews were often
appointed as agents for the Crown in their sale. They were the largest ship chandlers in the entire Caribbean region, where the shipping
business was mainly a Jewish enterprise. The ships were not only owned by Jews, but were manned by Jewish crews and sailed under the
command of Jewish captains

become shareholders in the venture, having contributed more than thirty-six thousand guilders to the colony's initial capital. By 1658 these
included: Abram Isaac Perera, Andres Cristoffel Nunes, Abrara Isaac Bueno, Bento Osorio, Joseph d'Acosta, Louys Rodrigues de Sousa,
and Ferdinando Dias de Britto. By April 1658 they were joined by their fellow Jews: Francisco Vazde Crasto, Francisco lopo Henriques,
Balth'r Alvares Naugera, Josepho de los Bios, Ruij Gommes Frontiera, Aron Chamis Vaz, Dionis Jennis, Diego Vaz de Sousa. The
foregoing names are indicated as Jewish by a different style of writing than the other names in the lists, the 1656 list having the word
"Jooden" or "Joode" opposite the names of Perera, Nunnes, Bueno and Osorio, and a later list in 1671 mentioning some of the other
names as those of Jews. For March 1671 the following names occur under the heading of "Hebreen," or "Hebrews": Abraham Isaac Perera,
Simon Louis Rodrigues de Souza, Aaron Chamiz Vaz, Jacob de Pinto, Jeronimo Nunes da Costa, Jacomo Fernando Ozorio, and Abraham
Cohen.
When their colony in Recife, Brazil, fell to the Portuguese, the Jews fled from the Portuguese Inquisition in Brazil and headed for the Dutch
West India Company's colony of New Amsterdam in what is now New York, in 1655. The Dutch governor of New Amsterdam wrote to the
board of Directors asking for permission to expel the Jews from the New Amsterdam colony because of their unscrupulous trade practices
which were hurting gentile-owned businesses in the colony, and the directors of the Dutch West India Company told Stuyvesant that there
was nothing they could do, that the Jews were to be allowed to stay there because the Dutch West India Company was controlled by Jewish
stock-holders.
Having been prevented by ordinances issued by Governor Stuyvesant from engaging in the domestic economy, the Jews quickly discovered
that the territory inhabited by the Indians would be a fertile field. There were no laws preventing the Jews from trading with the Indians. In
1656 a Sephardic Jew named Jacob Lumbrozo arrived in Maryland and established himself as a plantation-owner, merchant, Indian-trader,
and a medical doctor. By 1661 Asser Levy, a Dutch Jew who arrived in New Amsterdam in

handled it.. ..In one area ofvtfiat used to be Dutch Guyana, 40 Jewsh-owied plantations i^ere home to a total population of at least 5,000

They came with ships carrying African blacks to be sold as slaves. The traffic in slaves was a royal monopoly, and the Jews were often
