Nuwaubian Nation

The "Tama-Re" compound as it stood in 2002, as seen from the air.

The Nuwaubian Nation or Nuwaubian movement is a religious organization founded and led by Dwight York. York began founding Black Muslim groups in New York in 1967, and has changed his teachings and the names of his groups many times. In the late 1980s, he abandoned the Muslim theology of his movement in favor of Ancient Egypt and extraterrestrial themes, in 1993 leaving Brooklyn for Eatonton, Putnam County, Georgia, where he built an ancient Egypt-themed compound called Tama-Re.[1]

By 2000, the "United Nuwaubian Nation of Moors" had some 500 adherents,[2] and drew as many as 5,000 visitors attending "Savior's Day" (York's birthday). Adherence declined steeply after York was sentenced to 135 years in federal prison in April 2004, and the Tama-Re compound was sold under government forfeiture and demolished in 2005.

The term "Nuwaubu" is found in "The Holy Tablets", a 1,700-page document published by York in 1996, as the term for "the way of life" of "supreme beings".[3] Nuwaubian teachings are sometimes also referred to as Nuwaubu/Nuwaupu, Wu-Nuwaubu, "Right Knowledge", "Sound Right Reasoning", "Overstanding", "Blackosophy" or "Factology". It is classified as a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center.[4][5][6][7]

Founder

Main article: Dwight York

The Nuwaubian Nation was centered exclusively on the person of the founder, Malachi (Dwight) York, who legally changed his name several times, and has used dozens of aliases.

York was born on June 26, 1935 (also reported as 1945[8]).[9] His ministry began in the late 1960s, from 1967 preaching to the Pan-African "Nubians" (viz. African Americans) in Brooklyn.

York founded numerous esoteric or quasi-religious fraternal orders under various names during the 1970s and 1980s, at first along pseudo-Islamic lines, later moving to a loose Afrocentric ancient Egypt theme, eclectically mixing ideas taken from Black nationalism, cryptozoological and UFO religions and popular conspiracy theory. During the 1980s, he was also active as a musician, as "Dr. York" publishing under the "Passion Records" label.

York published some 450 booklets (dubbed "scrolls") under numerous pseudonyms. During the late 1990s, he styled himself a messianic founder-prophet of his movement, sometimes claiming divine status or extraterrestrial origin, appearing on his Savior's Day celebrations at Tama-Re.

York was arrested in May 2002, and in 2004 convicted to a 135-year sentence for transporting minors across state lines in the course of sexually molesting them, racketeering, and financial reporting charges. His convictions were upheld on appeal.[10] York's case was reported as the largest prosecution for child molestation ever directed at a single person in the history of the United States, both in terms of number of victims and number of incidents. The case was described in the book Ungodly: A True Story of Unprecedented Evil (2007) by Bill Osinski, a reporter who had covered the Nuwaubians in Georgia during the late 1990s.

York is denounced by orthodox Black Muslims as a fake Muslim, a "Mahdi pretender" and "blasphemer". But some factions of the Black supremacist subculture in the United States appear to continue to support York, portraying his conviction as a conspiracy by the "White Power Structure". Malik Zulu Shabazz, chairman of the New Black Panther Party and York's lawyer, described York as "a great leader of our people [… and] victim of an open conspiracy by our enemy."[11]

There have been a wide range of terms used to describe the group, including Ansaru Allah Community, Holy Tabernacle Ministries, United Nuwaubian Nation of Moors, Yamassee Native American Moors of the Creek Nation, and Nuwaubian Nation of Moors.

History

The following is an overview of the development of the group over the period 1967–2000 based on the Religious Movements Homepage Project at the University of Virginia[12]

Year Group Name York's preferred alias Comments
1967 Ansaar Pure Sufi Amunnnubi Rooakhptah Styled as a Sufi order, the group wore a uniform of black tunics
1968 Nubian Islamic Hebrews They now exchanged the tunics for African robes. York travelled to Sudan in 1970–1972
1972 Ansaru Allah Community Issa al Haadi al Mahdi Now purporting to follow orthodox Islam, the group changed its dress to traditional Islamic garb.
1993 United Nuwaubian Nation of Moors Malachi York Move to Putnam County, Georgia and construction of the Tama-Re compound
1999 Ancient Egiptian Order Amunnubi Rooahkptah/ NETER A'aferti Atum-Re Fraternity/Sorority-Sacred Society;A return to teachings originally presented in 'Behind the Nine Ball' and 'Liberation Information' after "Giving them what they wanted (Religion) until they learn to want what I have to give (Nuwaupu)".

The group was called the "Ansaaru Allah Community" (AAC) during the 1970s and 1980s, headquartered in Brooklyn, New York ("Ansar" was the name of a 19th-century militant messianic movement in Sudan). The AAC was a messianic, millennialist, purportedly Muslim group that was well known among Black nationalists and Black Muslims at the time.

During the 1970s, the group expanded its sphere of influence beyond New York, setting up chapters in Trinidad, Baltimore and Washington. According to former follower Saadik Redd, York had between 2,000 and 3,000 followers during the 1970s. Their headquarters was at Bushwick, Brooklyn, until 1983, when they moved to Sullivan County, New York, to a site they called Camp Jazzir Abba. A Muslim cleric, Bilal Phillips, in 1988 published The Ansar Cult in America, denouncing the movement as un-Islamic. Phillips relied heavily on testimonies of former adherents.[13]

In the late 1980s, York shed the Muslim flavor of his movement and moved on to a more eclectic approach that would result in the "Nuwaubian" movement. York now styled his movement in a mixture of Ancient Egypt and Native American themes. In keeping with this change of focus, York changed his legal name again, from "Issa Al Haadi Al Mahdi" to "Malachi York", effective March 12, 1993.[14]

In 1996, under the name "Nayya: Malachi Zodok York-El" he published The Holy Tablets (a.k.a. the "Nuwaubian Bible"),[15] for which he claims divine inspiration, and in which he styles himself as a messiah figure, expounding on a UFO religion surrounding the "planet Rizq", according to which, he himself as well as pharaoh Ramesses II were extraterrestrials.

The Tama-Re complex in Eatonton, Georgia became the movement's new headquarters in 1993. The Nuwaubians now presented a narrative borrowed from that of the Washitaw Nation (a Louisiana Black separatist group led by an eccentric 'empress'), according to which they were Yamasee (a historical confederation of Native American nations in the Georgia area) as well as "Moors", based on a claim of prehistoric migration to America "before the continents drifted apart". At this point, the group called itself "Yamassee Native American Moors of the Creek Nation".[16] During the early 2000s, York presided Tama-Re styled as "Our Own Pharoah NETER A'aferti Atum-Re", leader and chief mystagogue of "The Ancient Egiptian Order."[17]

Reception

Political influence in Georgia

The Nuwaubian gained some local political influence in Putnam County during the early 2000s (decade). In 2001, they put up their own candidates, associated with the Republican Party, for public office, including sheriff.[18]

In conjunction with a Nuwaubian Nation parade held in Augusta, Georgia in February 2001, the office of Augusta mayor Bob Young (1999–2005) published a proclamation written by the Nuwaubian organization stating the group's beliefs, such as "the Nuwbuns were the dark, brown-to-black-skin, wooly-hair original Eygyptians" and "the Black race's greatness has been accepted in America and many books as people of Timbuktu Africa or the Olmecians from Uganda, Africa, who migrated and walked here to North and South America to set up colonies way before the continental drift."

In an interview with an Augusta Chronicle reporter, Young stated that he had not personally read the statement prior to its release. He explained that his office customarily releases proclamations drafted and submitted for publication by civic groups without subjecting them to substantial content review, implying that such proclamations do not necessarily constitute official positions of the mayor's office or statements of the mayor's views:

"Augusta Mayor Bob Young said he has had limited interaction with local Nuwaubians. 'The Nuwaubian people—whoever they are—they contacted us, they made arrangements to have a parade in Augusta, and then they asked for a proclamation to recognize their parade,' he said. … Mayor Young said it is not unusual for groups to write their own proclamation. 'Typically, the organization or individual that's asking for the proclamation will write up the information, and then what my staff does is put it into the proper format,' he said."[19]

In 2004, seven officers of the Macon, Georgia police department resigned from their jobs in protest against the prosecution of York. Five of those officers were later hired by the Clarke County jail as guards. Four of them were fired in 2006 (the fifth resigned) in the wake of charges that they were smuggling Nuwaubianist literature into the jail, corresponding with the prisoner York, encouraging inmates to rebel against white guards, and showing favoritism to Nuwaubian prisoners. The jail commander was fired after he began an investigation of Nuwaubianist influence at the jail and has said he believes that his decision to investigate triggered his being fired.[20]

Influence upon hip-hop

As Dr. York, he was active as a vocalist and music producer in Brooklyn before he was forced to leave New York for Georgia in 1993. During this time, his Nuwaubian teachings had an effect upon hip hop and Black culture in New York. Among the hip hop artists influenced by York listed by Heimlich were Jay-Z, Jaz-O, Doug E. Fresh, Afrika Bambaataa, Posdnuos from De La Soul, Prodigy from Mobb Deep, and MF Doom. Heimlich reviewed some of York's books in 2000 and wrote the following:

A partial list, from my notes, of places I'd encountered Nuwaubian notions before includes Chariots of the Gods and the Rael's embellishments on that book, conspiracy lit, UFO lit, the human potential movement, Buddhism and new-age, astrology, theosophy and Blavatsky, Leonard Jeffries and other Afrocentrics, Cayce, LaRouche, alternative medicine, self-help lit, Satanism, the Atkins diet, numerology and yoga. Many of these York mentions by name. There are also extensive discourses on the Torah, Gospels and Koran, as well as on Rastafarianism, the Nation of Islam and the Five Percent Nation.[21]

Afrika Bambaataa donated a red fez with the legend Proud Nuwaubian to the Smithsonian for their upcoming Hip-Hop Won't Stop: The Beat, the Rhymes, the Life exhibit at Washington's National Museum of American History.[22]

Among the indie hip hop ranks, there are Nuwaubians who perform what they call Nu-wop, such as Daddi Kuwsh, Twinity, Nefu Amun Hotep, 9thScientist, Scienz of Life, Ntelek, Jedi Mind Tricks, and The Lost Children of Babylon.[23]

Other artists influenced by York during the 1990s (while already based in Georgia) Da Bush Babees, Roboctopus and the reggae group Born Jamericans, Erykah Badu, both members of OutKast, and Khujo of Goodie Mob, Common, Nas, Prodigy of Mobb Deep, Lisa "Left-Eye" Lopes, India.Arie, and Musiq. The latter spent his early adolescence in the Putnam County area, and pictures of York can be seen pinned to his jacket in the video of his 2002 single "Don't Change". Underground hip hop artist and Wu-Tang Clan affiliate Killah Priest also dedicated a mixtape to York.

In an article for Honor Nation, A. L. JakeAl Reum speculated that the controversial Native American kitsch costumes and props from OutKast's 2004 Grammy Awards performance were inspired by the Nuwaubian belief about the Native Americans being "Moors" in origin.[24]

Teachings

Status of founder

Some of York's followers considered him to be a living god.[25] At times he has encouraged this interpretation,[26] and at other times, York has suggested that he is merely channeling the divine through various personalities.[27] He has also identified himself as Al-Khidr ("the green one") and as Melchizedek (who York says is also the archangel Michael).[28]

In later years York dismissed bodily worship of himself in a preface that was published within all of his books:

I am not the Lord Adonai, Jesus Messiah "The Christ"; nor am I a holy man, nor a preacher. I am a Master Teacher, a guide.[29]

"The spell of Leviathan"

Much of the purpose of Nuwaubian doctrine and practice is to counteract what they call "the spell of Leviathan" or "the spell of Kingu." In Nuwaubian mythology, Leviathan is a god associated with the Moon, sex, and spirit – also known as Lucifer, Sin, Set, Thoth, Hermes, Poseidon and the biblical serpent.[30]

Nuwaubians believe that the Spell of Leviathan was cast by the devil thousands of years ago to hypnotize Black people into "spiritual ignorance and racial indifference"[31] through such media as the Bible and certain elements of popular culture.[32]

Leviathan has many aliases:

Sam is short for one of his titles, SamaEl meaning "poison those of EL." He knows his name. He calls himself Uncle Sam or Dr. Seuss (Zues) with his famous statement, "Sam I Am, I Am Sam." This is what they teach the children; not ours however, for they will get right knowledge.[33]

Racial doctrine

Some of the Nuwaubian racial doctrine borrows from Moorish Science and the Nation of Islam. York's racial philosophy explicitly indicates that certain blacks – "Nubians" or "Melanites" – are of a superior race in fact as well as in descent.

Periodically Nuwaubians will claim not to belong to a racist belief system, for instance quoting York's statement: "We accept as fact that no one race of people is better than the other. In fact no one wins the race in racism."[34]

However, this is difficult to reconcile with other statements from York and his followers, and requires nuance. For instance, in one lecture York said: "White people are the devil. They say the Nuwaubians are not racist—bullcrap! I am. He might not be; that's his prerogative. I am. White people are devils—always was, always will be."[35]

We must realize that when a people is trying to make themselves look bigger than others, they may take the main characters and heroes of a false or true story in religion and/or mythology and build their own story around the heroes and characters, and this means that the story may be greatly changed to suit the purpose of those rewriting it.
Rakhptah, Amunubi (Malachi York), Bible Interpretations and Explanations booklet one (1967), p. 22

While race is a centrally important concept in Nuwaubian thought, York's teachings include many different racial origin myths that are difficult to reconcile. One version has the Mongoloid and Caucasoid races descending as inferior mutant versions of the original Negroes, with the Caucasians suffering from genetic albinism as evidence that they are at "the end of their genes."[36] The Nuwaubians claim that "Most whites are not really Caucasian, but are Negroid Mulattos or "coloreds". It is only those with blond hair and blue eyes who are Aryan Caucasians".[37]

White people

White people (sometimes also referred to as "Amorites", "Hyksos", "Canaanites", "Tamahu", or "Mankind") are said in one Nuwaubian belief to have been originally created as a race of killers to serve blacks as a slave army, but this plan went awry:

The Caucasian has not been chosen to lead the world. They lack true emotions in their creation. We never intended them to be peaceful. They were bred to be killers, with low reproduction levels and a short life span. What you call Negroid was to live 1,000 years each and the other humans 120 years. But the warrior seed of Caucasians only 60 years. They were only created to fight other invading races, to protect the God race Negroids. But they went insane, lost control when they were left unattended. They were never to taste blood. They did, and their true nature came out.… Because their reproduction levels were cut short, their sexual organs were made the smallest so that the female of their race will want to breed with Negroids to breed themselves out of existence after 6,000 years. It took 600 years to breed them, part man and part beast.[38]

Another Nuwaubian explanation of racial difference has various human types evolving from various primate species, with some Caucasians deriving from cross-breeding the baboon and orangutan, Pygmys from the chimpanzee and gibbon, and so forth.[39]

A recent belief is that the Christian term "rapture" really refers to the returning of raptors (dinosaurs) who will dine on the now ripe white flesh.

Their rapture or is it rapturs has come for the supper of the lambs. Or as the Anunnaki called them Lulu Amelu. Worker lambs, goats. Sad but true they were always being bread for food. Just as they did the wild boar to the domestic pig. They were grafted with simian = homo simians you can see it in their face and ears. As well as canine = homo canine you also see this with their body fur and canine teeth and love of red meat and the sow = homo-sow you see this is colour of skin and many other traits.[40]

Other Nuwaubian explanations of racial differences draw on the Hebrew creation myths from Genesis: "Nubians are Hamites through the sons of Ham and Mizraim (Genesis 10:6). The paleman is a Hamite through Ham's fourth son, Libana (Canaan) whose descendants inherited his curse of leprosy (Genesis 10:15–18)."[41] (See also: Sons of Noah: Theories regarding racial classifications) Another explanation has Caucasians descended from Cain: "Adam and Eve were sent to the Aegean Islands between Asia and Europe, where they started having children, and each couple's first born child was an Albino and those Albinos are called Cain in the Bible, and Cain is short for Caucasian." (See also: Curse and mark of Cain: Interpretations based on race)

The pale man originated from the Caucasus Mountains, where there was very little plant life and not much means for salt. This condition forced him to rob the Nubian female of her chastity in order to keep his seed alive, it's called integration. The Caucasian woman who was left in the mountains, resorted to lying with and having sex with beasts: such as the jackal, which is an ancestor of today's dog. The phrase "dog is man's best friend" came from this situation. The dog would lick the festered sores of the leper and clean them for him. His seed was kept alive because the Caucasian woman and the jackal mated. This is where you get people who possess an animalistic nature.[42]

Other racial views

Nubians are said to be only accidentally a "brown" race – they have rusted in Earth's atmosphere from their original green color because the magnesium in their melanin has been replaced by iron. The original, supreme, "Ether 9 beings" in Nuwaubian mythology were also green because of chlorophyll in their skin.[43]

Some human varieties are explained by variations in extra-terrestrial descent: Morbidly obese people, for instance, may be descended from the grotesque and elephant-nosed Deros (see also: Richard Sharpe Shaver); people with Down's Syndrome may be descended from the 48-chromosomed Teros. (Some Teros are said to live underground on Earth today, with some resembling humans so much that they can come to the surface and mingle with us without being noticed.)[44]

Nuwaubians believe that miscegenation is causing a new race to develop, the "Neutranoids", who are of no discernible distinct race and are being encouraged and exploited by sinister forces who are against "right racism" and humanity's natural diversity.[45]

In Nuwaubian doctrine, there is a moral law that people are required to respect vis a vis each other, and also a moral law that races are required to respect vis a vis each other. The "Code of Races" requires that a person not do something wrong to another person because they are of a different race ("unless justice requires it"), and also requires that people be loyal to their own race.

During a 6,000-year "moon cycle", people are said to be freed to violate these moral laws—but the consequences of this are not avoided but only deferred, and may fall upon the children of the wrong-doer, or their children. We are said to be currently at the end of this cycle and the guilty people and guilty races are due to meet their just punishment in an Armageddon in which only the innocent will survive.[46]

York once explained the "Tamahus" (whites) this way: "[They] have an unlit solar plexus sun, they only have a moon or lunar plexus. It reflects your sun light as they take your soul (sun)." White people with their "thin yellow or opaque hair" reflect the sun, and so "the sun's energy can't keep them charged with sol (soul)."

The Tam'a-hu's Time Is Over And They Are Falling Out Daily Because They Are Not Sun People. They Are Moon People, And The Moon Cycle Is Over. They Are Dying of Cancer And Diseases Caused by the Intense Heat And Rays of the Sun's Ultraviolet Rays That's Depleting The Ozone Layer. The Luciferian Which Means "Light Bearer" Is Using His Same Tactic of Depleting The Ozone Layer on This Planet Like He Did On Rizq.[47]

Cosmology

York has claimed to be an extraterrestrial master teacher from the planet Rizq. York wrote, "We have been coming to this planet before it had your life form on it. … My incarnation as an Ilah Mutajassid or Avatara was originally in the year 1945 A.D. In order to get here I travelled by one of the smaller passenger crafts called SHAM out of a Motherplane called Merkabah or NIBIRU."[48] This version of York came to Earth on March 16, 1970. (Comet Bennett, which was visible on that date, is said to have really been York's spacecraft).

York taught that the Motherplane/NIBIRU would launch the Crystal City or New Jerusalem (see: Book of Revelation 21:2) to our solar system from its position in Orion. A 40-year process of taking the 144,000 Chosen Few (see: Book of Revelation 14:1) – 12,000 each from the Twelve Tribes of Israel—into the Planet Craft NIBIRU began on August 12, 2003 and will end on August 12, 2043.

These Chosen Few will be groomed for 1,000 years and returned to Earth for the final battle against the Luciferians and also to redeem man from the 6,000-year rulership of the Devil and his seed. Though August 12, 2003, the beginning of this process, passed without incident, it has been taught that August 14, 2003 blackout of the Eastern United States and Canada marked the beginning of this Rapture-like event. The superficial similarity of these beliefs to those of the Heaven's Gate cult led to some worried newspaper articles after that cult's mass suicide during the appearance of Comet Hale–Bopp in 1997, in which the cult was reported to have said that a spacecraft was following the comet.[49]

York told his followers that in 1952, grotesque extraterrestrial Andromedeans that resembled the Predator met with and frightened U.S. President Harry S. Truman.[50] Other extraterrestrials have been trading with Earth since the Eisenhower administration, and are responsible for giving us technologies ranging from the polio vaccine to the hula hoop.[51] Earth is said to still be visited by extraterrestrials, some of which prey on human children.[52]

Currently, there are said to be over 70 different species of "Grey" and 16 different species of "Reptilians" on Earth. Human fetuses are said to go through Reptilian and Grey stages during their development (and if they are born prematurely, they will remain Reptilians or Greys).[53]

Among the reasons why these things are not widely acknowledged, according to York, is that extraterrestrials plant ideas and images in the minds of the makers of Hollywood movies about extraterrestrials so that these fictional stories can be used to discredit people who know the truth.[54] Examples of movies with such encoded content about the reality of aliens among us are those in the Star Wars series:

Yoda … is short for Judah. Freemasons are inspired by one entity and that is a grey, by the name of Yoda. Yoda guides Freemasonry back to Judah, with the ancient Israel masonry. The British "Covenant of Man" symbolizes the empire striking back. America is the empire fighting to overthrow Europe. … The word Yoda is not an English word as you have been led to believe. Its root word yawdaw appears 111 times in the Old Testament, means "to give thanks or praise, throw down, cast, shoot." The word Yadah meaning, to "to praise, give thanks" stems from the root word Yawdaw and appears only two times in the Old Testament (Daniel 2:23, Daniel 6:10). Not to mention the fact Yoda played in [the film] Return of the Jedi, and the word jedi is the same as yeti, it's just a matter of a letter, it's really the same word. Yeti is the name of Sasquatch (Bigfoot), also called Seti which is equivalent to the Extraterrestrials called the Seirians[55]

Language

"Nuwaubic" (sometimes "Nubic", "Meroitic", "Nuwaupic", "Nuwaupik", or "Napata"), is a constructed language and alphabet used by the students of Dwight York.

Nuwaubians try to discover the hidden meanings of words by using a method called "psonix", in which words are decomposed into syllables and phrases are created using similar-sounding syllables, so that for instance caucasian becomes "carcass-asian", extraterrestrials becomes "extra-terra-astrals",[56] gospel becomes "ghost spell",[57] Jesus becomes "Jah+Zeus",[58] planet becomes "plan E.T.",[59] and television becomes "tell lie vision."

York has also taught a number of "revealing" pseudo-etymologies of English words, for instance:

believe
be-lie-eve: to lie to Eve's children.
caucasian
from "Carcass-Asian" meaning "Degenerated Asian"
dyslexia
from the Greek "dys" (hard, difficult or against) and the Latin "lexia" (law), meaning "to go against the law"[60]
god
from the Hebrew letters Gomar, Oz, Dubar, signifying "wisdom – strength – beauty";[61] alternately, this word comes from reversing the letters of "dog"[62]
honkie
"It was against the law for Europeans to have sex with 'blacks.' According to the Act of 1705 AD, which states in part: '… whatsoever white man or woman being free shall intermarry with a Negro shall be committed to prison for six months without bail, and pay 10 pounds to the use of the parish. Ministers marrying such persons shall pay 10,000 pounds of tobacco.' At the time, certain European men that wanted to disobey the law would come into black neighborhoods and honk their horns. Back then car horns made a honk sound, not a beep sound. Thus, the black neighbors would say, 'the honkies are here,' in reference to the European men who would pay the 'black women' to have sex with them."[63]
Jesus
a combination of the words "Jah" and "Zeus"[58]
U.S.A.
from the Egyptian word "usa" meaning "eye"[21]

Extra sensory perception

In Nuwaubian mythology, the barathary gland (sometimes seen as "baradjedi", "barithary" or "barathory") was initially a gland of the human brain that was later maimed by the Anunna (those who came down in sets of 50) in the creation(s) of mankind. This gland provided four higher senses 1. telepathy, 2. clairvoyance, 3. intuition, and 4. psychometry, enabling direct communication to the Annunaqi/Elohim/Neteru.

Nuwaubian leader Dwight York says that humans (other than York himself),[64] are missing an important part of their brains, the "barathary gland", which once enabled various forms of extra-sensory perception, or, as he would have it, normal sensory perception that is currently disabled in humans.[65]

York wrote that he visited a spacecraft that is preparing to rescue loyal Nuwaubians, and that on this spacecraft he saw representations of barathary glands:

They showed me these little what looked like glass round balls about the size of a pool ball with 1 green light inside and names written on them, floating in this room around this big one about the size of a small car maybe 9x9 it glowed violet and rays of light would touch each green ball, it would turn yellow then blue then red. I knew them to be barithary glands that would need to be replaced if you can visit other worlds.[66]

According to York, just as with our missing barathary glands we have lost our ability to sense many things, our relationship to time has also degraded and restricted our ability to see certain dimensions:

The time and space relationship is linked to the human and Earth's bio-rhythms, and that determines how many dimensions for a world, which in your case is a third-dimension reality, are up for grabs. This is dealing with the extra space we have in our time. Let me explain. The clocks on Earth used to have a "tick" and a "tock." Now there is only the "tick". So time has been changed, and that missing "tock" is up for grabs that can be utilized by extraterrestrial beings who overstand this "altered time", and they can come in and out of this dimension at will.[67]

Clothing

"The Ourstory (history) of the Holy Tabernacle Ministries!"[68] is mostly an explanation for why York's clothing-related taboos and requirements changed so radically throughout the years, and why this is not an indication of the instability of the Nuwaubian doctrine.

… in nineteen sixty and seven A. D. … [o]ur official garb at this time was a black tunic, we called a budlah and black loose fitting pants, with a tarbush and shoes which became known as Romeos. … Then the dress changed to African robes and the people, we called ourselves Nubians.
In nineteen sixty and nine A. D. … the dress changed to a more elaborate style of dashiki, a black fez and a small bone in the left ear for those who wished to wear it and a ring in the right nostril.
We donned black tarbushes and our symbol was simply a crescent, a six-pointed star and an ankh
At this point we were wearing what had been established as the international garb of the Ansaaru Allah Community, which consisted of the thawb, dress and khimar, face veil for the female. This face veil which was not apart of the Sudanese original dress was introduced by the women of the community who mostly left immediately after and went back to wearing western attire leaving the devoted women behind veiled. I told them the day would come when his veil would have to be removed while living in the West, and it has. And the jallaabiyya, a long white garment and bantaluwn, loose fitting pants and immah, head covering for the male with an azzaba.
Then on into adulthood, our code of dress changed from time to time, to suit the time we were in. Our garb had mutated again in the year nineteen ninety and two A. D., to the kathnuwth, tunic and bantaluwn, loose fitting pants with a sash around the waist in various colors for the male, and the budlah nubi of the female which also consists of a tunic and bantaluwn and a shawl as a head covering of many colors.
The dress then changed to western attire in order to get everybody away from doing their own thing; those that truly followed the Lamb wherever he may lead them, trusted in him and wore western clothes and even listen to country western music…
Now you are ready to move on toward the next level, and ready to accept what I was giving you originally… So we are at the beginning again with Sufi and fezes.

Other

According to York:

Clones are in tune with each other unconsciously and linked etherically, which means anything that happens to you the cloned counterparts of you feels also. For instance you may feel a sharp pain, for no apparent reason like your hand may feel like it has been cut and that is because your clones hand may have been. You can have an emotional break down out of the "clear blue sky" because one of your counterparts did. For instance me, I have had smoke come out of my mouth, it was a strange tobacco, for no apparent reason. It turned out my duplicate in Tibet smokes and the smoke came through me. I do not smoke anything.[81]

Just as Mary of 2,000 years ago was chosen by the MOST HIGH, ANU … to breed the holy thing called Yashu'a or Jesus. … So too The Banaat will breed the Savior of this day and time; I YAANUWN, have come to save the children of the ELOHEEM (ANNUNAQI) from being killed as you bring your planet near to what could be its total destruction."

That is what makes me different from most people. I Am Not A Religious Man. I Am Just A Teacher.… ¶ I possessed a number of eight distinctive personalities, There are others.

  32. York-El, M.Z. The Bride of Christ—"These so-called holy books [Bible and Koran] that you hold in your hand today, were plagiarized and taken from ancient tablets such as the Enuma Elish (which can be found in The Holy Tablets), as a guide for you by Tammuz, one of the Eloheem (Elo-Heem, Aramic/Hebrew—these beings) assigned to you. Originally, the Torah was produced. Then humans came up with the New Testament, subsequently, the Koran. Each copy was getting further away from the original written truth. Zuen, also known as Shakar (whom you are calling the Devil …), 6,000 years ago cast Spell of Kingu called Leviathan aka The Spell of Sleep. The text was manipulated and used to help enforce the Spell of Kingu. Thus, the scriptures that you hold in your hand today are not divinely inspired (and are spellbinding)."

  36. York, Malachi Z. Was Adam Black or White?: "There is no longer a question of which race was on the planet first. All are in agreement that Negroes are the oldest race on the planet with five fingers and five toes, having wooly lamb's hair, also melanin, and that all others—Mongoloid and Caucasoid come out of the original Negroid gene. They are our children; we are their parents and that's why it hurt so much when we found out that they were evil continually (Genesis 6:5). The last string of a defected [sic] gene is the albino as they have recently found the albino gorilla, alligator, buffalo, snake, and many other creatures who have reached the end of their genes. So it is with the human race and the albino of the human race because the Caucasians are at the last strand of their genes, who have no place in history"
  37. Nuwaubian Moors Newsletter September 28, 1997 : "Most of the so-called Europeans of today are not really Caucasians. They are Mulattos. The pure Caucasian stock are those people with blond hair and blue eyes. If you were to snatch the hood off most KKK, you would not find blond haired, blue eyed Aryans (nobles). You would find dark haired, dark eyed mulattos, who think that they are white. Most skinheads do not have blond hair and blue eyes, nor did the German Chancellor Adolph Hitler [sic]. Unbeknown to them, they are a part of the Negroid race. They are the coloreds."

    See also Amunnubi Raakhptah's 9 Principles in the Human Being where he writes (p. 33): "The First Thing That All Nubuns Or Their Offspring Nubian Must Know Is That The Caucasoids Did Not And Still Don't Produce Any Data on Negroids. Nothing You Read About in the Medical Field Applied To Negroids. It All Pertains to the Chemical Make Up of the Caucasoid Bodies. Nothing in the Mental Field of the Psychiatrist Pertains to the Negroids. The Caucasoids Cannot Evaluate Our Mental Stability, Or Try To Decipher Why We Do What We Do Because We Do Not Think Or Feel The Way They Do. Nor Do The Caucasoids Know Anything About Us Spiritually. The Caucasoids Are Carnivorous Mammals, Who Are Flesh Eating Killers By Nature. Mongoloids And Others Are Human, Also Mammals Because They Are Mixed. Some Are Carnivores And Some Are Herbivores By Nature. And We Are Deities, Herbivores By Nature Who Are Their Mothers And Fathers. The Caucasoid Were All Grafted From Us, And Mixed With Other Beast To Make Their Beast Like Nature."
  39. York, Malachi Z. A Wake Up Call (video)"[Baboons are] very aggressive killers. Their human descendants stalk schools and shoot innocent people. Also they drag people from the back of trucks.… Among the different species of Apeman you have the black-haired Lar. This is where you get the word 'lord,' or master from. The Lares, plural for Lar, were recognized for their intelligence. These Lares were the head monkeys or spiritual monkeys, well known. This is where the word 'monks' comes from. Certain beings used the species known as the Baboon (part hyena, jackal and monkey) together with Orangutans for breeding. This resulted in your Behaymaw (called the beast of the field) type of carnivorous man called Mankind, one of the many species of Caucasians. You have the red-haired, light-green eyed, yellow-haired, blue-eyed, brown-haired, grey-eyed and many others. While on the other hand, certain beings used the Chimpanzee and the Gibbon, which are an offshoot of the Lares, for breeding. The Chimpanzee and Gibbon evolved into Humins, and they became your Nubuns, the original Pygmy tribe."
