| Video Discription | (18 Jan 1972) 7203/B: ISRAEL: THE BLACK HEBREWS In 1970 a group of eight black American families arrived in Israel from Chicago, by way of Liberia, where they had tried unsuccessfully to set up a religious community in the desert. Describing themselves as Black Hebrews, they claim to be the descendants of the ten lost tribes of Israel, and therefore had more right to be in Israel than the Jews. They were welcomed with humorous tolerance in the Negev Desert town of Dimona. The local Sephardic Jewish community gave them 12 new immigrant flats and work permits, privileges not normally afforded tourists. But last year things turned sour. The Black Hebrews, who had never disguised their intention to turn Israel into a black-run state, began inviting other members of their sect to join them. They arrived with tourist visas, but did not return to America when they expired; instead they moved into the flats on a permanent basis. There are now 400 Black Hebrews living in accommodation intended for 40, and the locals are protesting at the creation of slum conditions. Black Hebrews have been banned from entering Israel, although no action has been taken to expel the ones already there.
