A newspaper essay by Rabbi Jacob S. Minkin describes Black congregations in New York, Newark, Asbury Park, Chicago, Youngstown and Cleveland where 'the faith of Israel is being acknowledged and worshipped in the language of the Bible', with their own Hebrew schools/Talmud Torahs, orthodox-style dress and segregated seating, and Jewish members reminding converts they are of 'the seed of Abraham'. Minkin states that 'the nucleus of the Negro converts to Judaism in the United States came from the Abyssinian Jews in America, of whom there are at least 2000', directly connecting the American Black-Jewish congregational movement to the Abyssinian/Falasha strand this corpus otherwise tracks through individual itinerant claimants. The essay opens by noting the recent accession to power of Adolf Hitler as current news, giving it an approximate 1933 date; the rest of the page carries unrelated items on German Jewry's reaction to Hitler, a Union of Orthodox Jewish Congregations convention, the death of Cincinnati Israelite editor Leo Wise, and the birthplace of Esperanto founder Dr. Zamenhof. Names no individual traveller and makes no connection to Neville Goddard or Abda'llah Guillaume.
