The Crisis, the magazine of National
Association for the Advancement
of Colored People (NAACP),
reports in its May 1952 edition:
NEGRO JEW
In a Jewish magazine I found a strange story about a Negro Jew who had had some bad experiences in Germany. His grandparents — who belonged to the tribe of colored Jews named Falashas — had moved from Ethiopa to the Gold Coast, and his parents had taken him to Germany when he was only two years old. In Berlin he married a Christian German who embraced the Jewish religion, and they had two children.After the Nazis came to power, the couple were thrown into a concentration camp. The unfortunate woman died there, but her husband lived to see the end of the Third Reich. He regained possession of his children, and the three emigrated to Palestine in the hope of finding peace at last.
