The article “Curse of Ham” includes the following reference to a completely unreliable and non-scholarly web site:
9. Factology, Nubian & Pale Hamites. Retrieved May 28, 2008. http://www.factology.com/front5_27_00.htm
The site is sponsored by the followers of Dr. Malachi Z.York, described thus on the web site referenced in the New World Encyclopedia article on Curs of Ham:
“Our Savior, Dr. Malachi Z. York-El, let’s unite in the facts he constantly receives, writes & speaks. He is the author of the scrolls mentioned on this website, unless noted otherwise. He’s not claiming to be “Christ,†and even wrote a book entitled, I Don’t Claim To Be (it’s out of print).
They said cult he said culture. They said believe, he said be lying to Eve’s seed. They said theology he said factology.
He’s been teaching for over 30 years by writing over 360 books on every subject under and over the Sun (think about that). Tapes of his lectures called “True Light†have broadcast all over the country and books have been translated for others worldwide. Undisputable Facts!
How right does a man have to be before you accept his divinity?”

Thank you for your comment. Indeed the Factology website is non-scholarly. However, the purpose of the citation is that the Nuwaubian teachings of Dr. Malachi York state that the “curse of Ham” should be interpreted as leprosy that whitened the skin of Ham’s fourth son, Canaan. A reference to York’s writing ”What Race was Jesus?” has been added, but it appears to be out of print. If you know of a more scholarly work that could be used as a reference for this Nuwaubian belief please let us know. Thank you again for your support of New World Encyclopedia.
