HEBREW ISRAELITE Camp List [+Orgs & People]
An active list of Hebrew Israelite groups compiled by independent researcher, Vocab Malone.
“HEBREW ISRAELITE”
CAMPS / ORGANIZATIONS
This HEBREW ISRAELITE CAMP, ORGANIZATIONS, & SIGNIFICANT PERSONS LIST is a work in progress. More additional and precise info will be added as its received.
Those listed have one thing in common: in some way they ascribe to Hebrew Israelism. Other than that, agreement is varied. This is not a One West list, although many One Westers are on the list. This is not a “black Judaism” list (although some of the groups listed are closer to that end of the Israelism spectrum). This is simply a list of Hebrew Israelite notable groups/persons.
The purpose of this list is at least threefold:
to raise awareness for bible-believing Christians
to equip Christian apologists in their apologetics ministry
to aid interested parties to better equip them in their research
Feel free to make suggestions in the comments section below, I will absolutely consider them.

APPENDIX
*YAP GANG (research group)
Notable Members: Yashub, Ivri, Othodox Moor
The YAP Gang is an independent study collective, not a Hebrew Israelite group proper. Some of its members don’t identify as Israelites (some do) and/or don’t think the majority of black Americans descend paternally from Jacob. Some members identify as “sojourners” and don’t consider themselves patrilineal descendants of Jacob at all. Also, they don’t all automatically embrace/promote a “denial” of all “mainstream Jews”.

Thank you for sharing this post! I really appreciate you and all those in the Urban Apologetic community. I've been really blessed your content and hope one day to share with my family members with confidence and boldness the Love and Gospel of Christ (they started off with holidays and stumbled into Stephen Darby's teaching then went on to follow GOCC's academy and now are into native american/aboriginal hebrew teachings... Just a true hodgepodge of beliefs and it's alarming.) Again, thank you!
Thanks for sharing this list, it’s extremely helpful. We are currently teaching an apologetics course at our church and about to delve into the Hebrew Israelites using a lot of your material. We appreciate all you do!
