This blockbuster documentary, "The Judaic Role in the Black Slave Trade" by Tony Martin, Professor of African History at Wellesley College, has cost Mr. Martin a steep price for his failure to toe the party line on the Trans-Atlantic slave trade. Thought vastly more qualified and erudite than the likes of Henry Louis Gates and Thomas Sowell, Martin has been blacklisted and boycotted and kept off blue ribbon civil rights symposia both in the US and Britain, PBS broadcasts and syndicated columns. The Establishment's directive is ― silence Tony Martin! This obtains for both the Left and the Right wings of the Cryptocracy.

His offense? Courageously bearing witness to embarrassing truths about Judaism, which testify to a significant and in the case of the Caribbean and South America ― massive Judaic role in the black slave trade. Prof. Martin compounds this dangerous 'blasphemy' with heresy, by pointing to the sacred rabbinic texts and  halacha (Judaic law)as the basis for the racist justification for black chattel servitude. Martin correctly points to the two major Judaic sources of this institutionalized anti-black contempt: the Midrash, a collection of rabbinic fairy tales alleged by prominent writers (Joseph Telushkin,James L. Kugel), to offer brilliant insights into obscure and enigmatic passages of the Old Testament; and the "Guide of the Perplexed"(in the Shlomo Pines translation--all other English
versions are redacted), by Judaism's foremost rabbinic legal "codifier", the famous Rabbi Moses Maimonides, a.k.a. the "Rambam"(sounds like a parody of a Flintstones' character, but that's his moniker in Orthodox Judaism). →
