Are black Hebrew Israelites aware that they are mixed with some white, most of the times?

Or with ay other race..

They make it sound like they are pure black.

Do they believe that?

What do they do or say when they find out that there was a white or Asian great-grandmother?

    > but they claim that their DNA shows that they are from Israel!

    how is that possible?

    (I think they only test the DNA at a specific place..so, that place must be a hoax?!?

    Its not possible.

    Its pure BS.

    Consider this way --

    They claim to be the only "real Israelites" while all the communities of Jews worldwide are fake.

    So -- whose DNA would they be comparing to??

    =========

    Let me give you a counter example --

    there is a tribe in Africa -- Black Christian people.

    The Lemba.

    They have a tribal story that they originally were refugees who came from Israel.

    The way their tradition was authenticated was that their DNA was compared to Jews --the white and brown and ...beige Jews who live all over the world.

    And the Lemba were proven to have Israeli roots because the DNA matched with all of these "white" and "brown" and "beige" Jews --

    the same Jews that the "Hebrew Israelites" cult claims to be fake.

    If they are mixed with some white, then it's likely from an ancestor rather than an immediate family member. Regardless, the vast majority, if not all people in society would still view them and treat them as fully black. Having non-black ancestry dating from centuries ago doesn't change anything.

    Their DNA is "mixed" but they probably have no recent white ancestors
