Brief
Description of Workshops
WORKSHOP:
"People of Color In The Bible"
ABSTRACT
Many white and non-white Biblical scholars agree with author and lecturer
William Emanuel that Jesus could not have been white! The Emanuel's
shows that most Biblical personalities were People Of Color. They
show that awareness of this heightens self-esteem among People Of
Color and helps to improve race relations. They will share enlightening
facts they uncovered in they extensive research. They will reveal
evidence pointing to the ethnicity of Adam, Eve, and other prominent
Biblical personalities, including Jesus! They discovered that an acceptance
of the issue of People Of Color In The Bible offers great benefits
to all: self-esteem is heightened, racism is honestly addressed, drugs
and violence are effectively countered.
