I dont just mean black people who converted to judaism, i mean genetically related to jews who fled isreal. I was researching my tribal roots, i am igbo and i was wondering why my tribe practiced male circumscision prior to christianity and i also found out that even our religious practices, where similiar to judeo-christian ones. Like the fact that we believe there is one god called chukwu, who created all things and man included. There are also some minor gods, who chukwu created to help him guide man, these could be interpreted as ark angels and according to our customs where to be thanked and not worshipped and finally every one had a chi, a gaurdian spirit given to you by chukwu to guide you and protect you, this could be gaurdian angels that where mentioned in the bible. I asked my parents and was told that a lot of igbos believe that we where descended from jews and also our language has some similiarities with the lemba or lembe people of kenya who also believe themselves to be jews.
