First Black Jesus Movie Aims To Unite Blacks And Jews 2006-05-31 -- WDC MEDIA NEWS (LOS ANGELES) -- "Color of the Cross," a Nu-Lite Entertainment production, is an independent, biblically charged religious biopic based on the last 48 hours of Christ’s life and stands to be the most controversial depiction of Jesus to date. In this gripping, two-hour epic, Jesus is portrayed as a black Jew. This retelling of the biblical story from a black perspective seeks to repair the anti-Semitism that has been associated with the story of Christ. The inclusion of Black Jews during Passover in the film makes a clear statement toward the shared history of African and the Middle Eastern cultures without being offensive. Unlike "Passion of the Christ," "Color of the Cross" chose not to focus on the bloody torture of Christ’s crucifixion. Instead the film focuses on the human pain and suffering that Christ, the Disciples, and Christ’s family endured. "Color of the Cross" reaches across a cultural divide to inspire and challenge its viewers intellectually. According to the film’s director, Jean Claude LaMarre, "To watch a black man on screen, being referred to as rabbi, or to see him partaking in a Seder meal and observing Passover really blurs the lines that divide blacks and Jews in this country. We are part of the same history." "Color of the Cross" seeks to stimulate and awaken peace and unity between all races of people. Recent programs such as the History Channel’s "Warriors of the Bible" clearly shows the diversity of cultures as they existed in the geographical region where the Bible stories occurred. And like many of the recent programs flooding the media such as the Book of Judas, Ron Howard’s "The Da Vinci Code," etc, "Color of the Cross" also bases its story not just on scriptural interpretation but other historical data with many interpretations pointing to the fact that Christ very well may have been dark skinned. The film will have a theatrical release in October 2006. Revealing clips and exclusive information can be found at: http://www.colorofthecross.com/ Note to the Editors -- The film is a Nu-Lite Entertainment production, and producers are Rev. Cecil "Chip" Murray, Jessie Levostre, Kenneth Halsband, Executive Producers Lila Aviv, Paul Noe, Edy Lahens, Marc Porterfield, Michele Gonda and Co-producer Marcello Thedford.

Po' dumb darkies. The mean average IQ of Africans is 70; for American blacks, 85. Tell them that Jesus was black and they'll believe it. It just makes it easier to others to lead them around by their noses.
This rediculous crap is Storm Front BS, Negroes are just as good as any other part of the human race. Where did you hear this nonsense, Storm Front?
A "nazi" site based out of West Palm Beach has the stink of gefilte fish all over it.
It is one of Don Black's sites, and he is anything but Jewish. Sorry Charlie, but your big lie attempt has all the stink of rotting tuna.
I know. I've never been a fan of Don Black and became even more suspicious of him when I found out this "Nazi" lives in and works in one of the most Jewish sections of America.
Where he lives means almost zero compared to the volumes of hateful crap he is responsible for putting on the Internet and for all the networking of Jew hating and racist creeps he has done. You are going to have to come up with more then a tidbit of questionable circumstantial evidence before I would believe anything as dumb as the notion that Don Black is Jewish or works for anything but and for haters and baiters.
Black isn't Jewish. He works for the ADL, et. al. as a Judas goat. An old friend of mine, Eustace Mullins, told me that in the mid-1950's the ADL approached him and offered him a good chunk of change in exchange for advanced copies of his work and for information on who he was working with. The alternative , they told him, was that he would never be published in mainstream outlets. He turned them down flat. Willis Carto is another Judas goat according to Mullin. Carto was living pretty high on the hog.
Nonsense. Looking at the networking, information accumulation and accelerating growth of Storm Front, your portraying a deadly disease as an ADL inoculation against such political efficacy and the organizing of it is disingenuous at best. Storm Front is a serious and malignant problem on the Internet as it organizes and spreads hatred and fascism anywhere it can do so. You have no convincing evidence to counter the overwhelming evidence you are wrong. Yours sounds more like the sort of conflicting clap trap that that site's E activism section advises be posted to defuse and neutralize criticism of that site to allow it's cancer cover and breathing room to get allot worse as a presence on the net then it already is. Black is a Nazi, a racist and a Jew baiter. If you have incontrovertible evidence that can counter the overwhelming evidence sowing this is so, let's see it. Hearsay circumstantial evidence is meaningless, and not convincing.
It just so happens I have met the man. He is nothing of the sort. He has strong convictions and principles. Got to get off here for now. Chat later.
So did Hitler. you are lying when you say he is nothing of the sort to contridict me. I repeat so you get the full impact of my words, you are a willful liar.
This makes no sense whatever. Why would I lie about that? It's simply my impression of the man. I'm a fairly good judge of charcter and I'm seldom wrong. Unless you have proof that I am lying about what I have said, you should not be casting such aspersions as this. It is scurrilous and contemptible behavior.

It does make sense. It was a retort to this bizarre statement of yours' defending Don Black: "He is nothing of the sort. He has strong convictions and principles." Why would you defend someone like Don Black unless you shared his views? Indeed, why would you even want to meet such a person? This is so bizarre considering how unAmerican and evil Black is how could you expect me to accept such a testimonial from you without at best wonder about your sanity for doing so? You are the one who met with the notorious Don Black, not me. You are the one defending the character of a hateful sociopath who idolizes Hitler and other fascist, murderous, and war mongering criminals, not me. I agree I should have with held this opinion and let lurkers decide for themselves. But any friend, associate or defender of Don Black who is an enemy of this country is going to get a strong reaction concerning any association with Black. That is a given.

Replies to Comment # 29. I said - so did Hitler, to which you responded; "This makes no sense whatever."
