COHANZIK: [http://www.jaegerkorps.org/blackhessian.html]
Not only was the Nanticoke-Lenape Moorish language lost but the ancient Cohen Priest Chiefs known as the Cohanzik were either killed, imprisoned and or driven away by the European Colonialists.
In regards to this history concerning the Cohanzik the word itself came to mean that which was taken out or taken away. However Allah is the Best of the Planners! It would be a granddaughter of Peter Staff who would marry a Moorish Sicilian man from the Scaletta family.
Scaletta means the ” Family of Ascension ” initially referring to the extended families of the Messiah Jesus Christ who along with those at Pentecoast received the Holy Spirit after the ascension of the Messiah. The union between Antonino and Catherine Scaletta produced a daughter Elizabeth who would marry a descendant of the Cohen Israelite tribe of Bani-Qaraiza from Medina in Arabia. From this union would emerge the High Priest of Israel (Amir) Ishaq D. Al-Sulaimani who is a DNA Proven Cohen Priest and the Great Great Grandson of Peter Staff.
The Cohanzik has now returned !! Welcome to the restored Nanticoke Lenape Nation of Moors. This is the long awaited time of the MOORISH ISRAELITES and the rebirth of the House of Joseph. IT IS A MANIFEST DESTINY!!!
*In (1840) the Moorish Nanticoke language which was a dialect of Mandingo (Nantego) became extinct with the death of its last speaker Lydia Clarke. However just 14 years later would be the beginning of redemption as the Moorish Nanticoke Lenape would unknowingly be saved by the miraculous sign of the return of Peter Staff in 1854.

– Denmark Vesey (also Telemaque) (ca. 1767 – July 2, 1822) A skilled carpenter and leader among African Americans in Charleston, South Carolina.
Accused and convicted of being the ringleader of “the rising,” a potential slave revolt planned for the city in June 1822; he was executed.
Likely born into slavery in St. Thomas, he served a master in Bermuda for some time before being brought to Charleston, where he gained his freedom.
Vesey won a lottery and purchased his freedom around the age of 32. He had a good business and a family, but was unable to buy his first wife Beck and their children out of slavery. Vesey became active in the Second Presbyterian Church; in 1818 he was among the founders of an independent African Methodist Episcopal (AME) Church in the city,[3] which had the support of white clergy. It rapidly attracted 1,848 members, making this the second-largest AME congregation in the nation after Mother Bethel in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

INFAMOUS BLACK SHILLS
From NEGUS Kings to daily Shame: The making of a new name for the “New Negro”
While it is well known the Kennedy’s shared compassion and a deep seated concern for Negroes in America but Notice how the smooth speaking James Baldwin said White this and White That, pejoratively and NEVER EVER EVER Any Bad thing about the Oppressive NYC Jew Slum Lords who effectively Harnessed and Commissioned this sexually compromised BLACK SHILL as his Patron Overlords to Systematically Pivot Blacks Away from any possible alliance with the Kennedy Legacy or WHITE CHRISTIANS who DARED To Help Emancipate Us.
In lies the reason the jewISH New Yorker Dan Borros RECONSTITUTED the Usurped KKK, an organization that got started to Dispense with Leo Frank who thought to blame his Black Worker for the Paedophilia Murder of a White Little Girl lured into his company. Bottom line, Rev 3:9 isREAL and it’s time God”s Chosen and Those of the Promise finally WAKE UP!!!!

-1960: Richard Benjamin Moore (9 August 1893 – 1978) was a Barbados-born African-Caribbean civil rights activist and prominent Socialist.
* Combined Jewish Philanthropies (CJP) forms with the merger of the Combined Jewish Appeal and Associated Jewish Philanthropies. First published in 1960 in a limited edition, The Name “Negro”: Its Origin and Evil Use is Richard B. Moore’s comprehensive study of the use and definition of the word, “Negro.” Connection its origins to the beginning of the African slave trade, Moore shows how the name, “Negro,” was used to separate people of African descent and confirm their supposed inferiority.
As an orator, writer, avid reader and Black bibliophile, Moore recognized he critical need for Black people to understand the use of language as a tool of prejudice, and more importantly, as an instrument of liberation.
In early 1960, following a series of lectures on African Religion Before Judaism and Christianity presented at a loft in Harlem that he designated as Moors Gallery, Moore advanced his analysis of the term “Negro.” He traced the association of the word to the beginnings and development of the slave trade and demonstrated how the term continually conveyed connotations of inferiority. As he explains in the forward of the fist edition, the members of the audience endorsed the suggestions to form the Committee To Present the Truth About the Name “Negro” and plans were made for the presentations of a formal lecture. “The name ‘Negro’– Its Origin, Purpose And Evil Use” was presented on May 29th by Moore at the United Mutual Life Insurance Company building. The Committee adopted a resolution introduced by Attorney Percy E. Sutton calling for a change of name. Moore was urged to publish an expanded, substantiated version. By the time the text was ready for publication, Moore had presented a second lecture at St. Leonard’s African Orthodox Church located in Brooklyn, New York on June 26th, launched publicity releases to the press including a special letter to the New York Times, and mounted a campaign to solicit support for the Committee. The two addressees and pertinent related documents were published by Moore under the incorporated name “AfroAmerican Publishers” before the end of the year. Both hardcover and softcover editions were issued.
