The film “uncovers the true identity of the Children of Israel” and unearths “what Islam, Judaism and Christianity has covered up for centuries in regards to the true biblical identity of the so-called ‘Negro’ in this movie packed with tons of research.”

The book also notes that “Since the European and Arab slave traders stepped foot into Africa, blacks have been told lies about their heritage.”

A Nets spokesperson told the New York Post: “The Brooklyn Nets strongly condemn and have no tolerance for the promotion of any form of hate speech. We believe that in these situations, our first action must be open, honest dialogue. We thank those, including the ADL [Anti-Defamation League], who have been supportive during this time.” 

According to The Rolling Stone, the film is based on the 2015 book of the same name, and several passages of the book have been proven false.

Tsai wrote the following on Twitter:

“I’m disappointed that Kyrie appears to support a film based on a book full of anti-semitic disinformation. I want to sit down and make sure he understands this is hurtful to all of us, and as a man of faith, it is wrong to promote hate based on race, ethnicity or religion.”

The Nets issued the following statement: “The Brooklyn Nets strongly condemn and have no tolerance for the promotion of any form of hate speech. “We believe that in these situations, our first action must be open, honest dialogue. We thank those, including the ADL (Anti-Defamation League), who have been supportive during this time.”

“Hebrews to Negroes: Wake Up Black America” is a 2015 book by Ronald Dalton Jr. which was made into a film by the author in 2018.

According to Amazon’s description, “The Movie ‘Hebrews to Negroes: Wake Up Black America” uncovers the true identity of the Children of Israel by proving the true ethnicity of Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob, the Sons of Ham, Shem & Japheth. Find out what Islam, Judaism and Christianity has covered up for centuries in regards to the true biblical identity of the so-called “Negro” in this movie packed with tons of research.’”
