Hybrid Hate is the first book to study the conflation of
anti-Semitism and anti-Black racism. As objects of racism, Jews and
Blacks have been linked together for centuries as peoples apart
from the general run of humanity. In this book, Tudor Parfitt
investigates the development of anti-Semitism, anti-Black racism,
and race theory in the West from the Renaissance to the Second
World War. Parfitt explains how Jews were often perceived as Black
in medieval Europe, and the conflation of Jews and Blacks continued
throughout the period of the Enlightenment. With the discovery of a
community of Black Jews in Loango in West Africa in 1777, and later
of Black Jews in India, the Middle East, and other parts of Africa,
the notion of multiracial Jews was born. Over the following
centuries, the figure of the hybrid Black Jew was drawn into the
maelstrom of evolving theories about race hierarchies and
taxonomies. Parfitt analyses how Jews and Blacks were increasingly
conflated in a racist discourse from the mid-nineteenth century to
the period of the Third Reich, as the two fundamental prejudices of
the West were combined. Hybrid Hate offers a new interpretation of
the rise of anti-Semitism and anti-Black racism in Europe, and
casts light on contemporary racist discourses in the United States
and Europe.
