Black Israelite Answer
Moses was born a Hebrew - Israelite from the tribe of Levi (Exodus 2:1-3). He spent 40 years in the House of Pharaoh (Acts 7:23) and from the time he was an infant, passed as the Pharaoh's grandson (Exodus 2: 6, 10). This was during the same time that Pharaoh ordered all Hebrew males under the age of two to be killed. So, if Pharaoh, was a black-skinned descendant of Khawm / Ham, which he was, it would of course follow that Moses was black-skinned also. Ham (Khawm) in Hebrew means BLACK, HOT AND BURNT. All four of Ham's sons and their descendants settled in and around the Continent of Africa. This includes the so called "Middle East" that is also a part of the Continent of Africa.
Let us begin with the story of Jacob's second Youngest son Joseph, and his time in Egypt. Joseph was one of the twelve sons of Jacob (Yaaqob in Hebrew). Jacob sired Joseph in his old age, and he was clearly his favorite son. This caused Joseph's brothers to become jealous of him. Ultimately, their jealousy resulted in Joseph being sold by Arab merchants as a slave to Egyptians. Over the course of time Joseph became Viceroy of Egypt and was second in command to Pharaoh in authority. There was a famine in Canaan, where Jacob and his sons lived. (Pharaoh had a dream which Joseph interpreted. His dream told of the forthcoming famine and gave Egypt an opportunity to prepare by storing food.) So, Jacob sent his ten sons to Egypt to buy bread. When Joseph's ten brothers came into Egypt they were brought before him. Joseph recognized his brothers, but they didn't recognize him (Genesis 42:1-8). Since the biblical Egyptians were a black-skinned people, Joseph had to be black-skinned also. If he were white skinned, as over half the world's Jews are today, his brothers would have recognized him easily among the black- skinned Egyptians, or they would have been very curious as to why this white-skinned Hebrew was ruling in Egypt. But his brothers just thought Joseph was another Egyptian. The ancient Egyptians of Joseph time were indeed what we know today as black skinned. This is a fact attested to by many.
The Israelites did not "mix" (have sexual relations) with the Egyptians (Rashi commentary, Numbers ch.26).
DNA studies have shown that Africans are not related to Jews.
Nowhere does it state that Pharaoh was Black. Egypt has been ruled by non-Blacks too, such as the Hyksos.
Nowhere does it state that Moses was thought of as Pharaoh's physical progeny. Everyone knew that Pharaoh's daughter had adopted him.
Not all of Ham's descendants settled around the Horn of Africa. Concerning Canaan it states explicitly that some of them spread far afield (Genesis ch.10).
Joseph was not recognized because, for the first time, his brothers saw him with a full beard (Talmud, Ketubot 27b). Additionally, most Egyptians were olive skin-toned just as they are today. Even assuming that the Egyptians were Black, the presence of a non-Black in Egypt would not have been surprising since the land was at that time inundated with foreigners (Genesis 41:57). Also, Joseph spoke Egyptian and was dressed in the Egyptian manner.
So we see how easily the "proofs" in the first Answer fall apart.
Now back to the Question:
DNA testing of Jewish communities worldwide has shown that they are all interrelated and of Middle Eastern genetics, comparable to the Sephardim today (not African or Egyptian).
In 2000, the analysis of a report by Nicholas Wade "provided genetic witness that Jewish communities have, to a remarkable extent, retained their biological identity separate from their host populations, evidence of relatively little intermarriage or conversion into Judaism over the centuries. The results accord with Jewish history and tradition." Meaning, unsurprisingly, that the Jews are who they say they are, present and past.
The only exception to this is the Ethiopian Black Jews, who show only a trace of DNA connection to other Jewish communities. Western ethnologists today hold the view that the Jews of Gondar (Ethiopia) either emerged from a Judaizing strain among Ethiopian Christians, or were converted by Yemeni Jews who crossed the Red Sea. A study by Professors Lucotte and Smets has shown that the genetic father of Beta Israel (Ethiopian Jews) was close to the Ethiopian non-Jewish populations. This is consistent with the theory that Beta Israel are descendants of ancient inhabitants of Ethiopia, not the Middle East. Hammer et al. in 2000, and the team of Shen in 2004, arrive at similar conclusions, namely that the DNA of the Ethiopian Jews probably indicates a conversion of local populations.
It has been estimated that this happened some 2,000 years ago.
And in America:
The beliefs and practices of Black Hebrew groups vary considerably. The differences are so great that historian James Tinney has suggested the classification of the organizations into three quite distinct groups.
Some of these groups are actually Christians, or part-Christians in their beliefs and practices. They have names such as Church of the Living God, the Church of God and Saints of Christ, and the Israelite Church of God in Jesus Christ. Others profess beliefs closer to Judaism, such as the Commandment Keepers.
As Judaism sees it, the issue with their claims is that they can produce no generally-accepted evidence of actual Semitic ancestry. These groups created themselves spontaneously within recent history, from within the wider African-American population.
Any African-Americans who do choose to become Jewish through proper conversion are accepted into Judaism.
Jews range from fair-skinned to dark (such as the Yemeni Jews and others). And by the way, to which "Hebrews" do you refer?
No. She was olive skinned like many Hebrews/Jews in the middle east.
Your Hella Dense. Negra's Are Black, Colored People [Brown Skinned] Rednecks Are White People [white skinned]
He was actually Black. He was a light-skinned French Creole.
They will have been Olive skinned; similar to present day Egyptians and other Arabic peoples
------------------------ The original Hebrews were a West Semitic people, closely related to the Canaanites. They wee therefore brown skinned, with black hair, much like the Palestinians and Sephardic Jews of today.
no because the black mom could have had the child before she married the white man
Mattie Shaw, the mother of musician Prince, is black.
It is believed that dark skinned black girls are mean to lighter skinned black girls because they do not think they are black enough. Some girls are just mean and would be mean no matter their skin color.
That is how they distinguish people in spain. They use this to classify the color of the skin literally. They call the fairer skinned spanish people white, where as they call the darker skinned people black. Its not like in America when we use these words to classify race.
A "shabine" is a light-skinned, black person. Basically someone of Negro roots who has light/white skin. However not to be mistaken with an albino.
Zebra ipotanes are dark-skinned humanoids with black and white-striped hair and the hind legs of a zebra.
