Abstract EN
Exile, slavery and persecution were tense and often challenging themes in African and Jewish history.
for the Jews, the desire of return to Jerusalem was a response to the desperate plight encountered worldwide as well as a need to fulfill a religious prophecy.
for Africans, repatriation to Africa meant an escape from the high amount of institutional racism and whiteabuses in the churches of the united states.
this study tries to expose thenature of the African and Jewish questions from the standpoint of edwardwilmot blyden.
through a close reading of blyden's thoughts, the article reveals that blyden saw that the Jewish situation resembled that of Africa as both were harassed and stigmatized.
yet, he confirmed that the Jewish caseis different in the sense that Jews' long for repatriation was completely religious much more than racial or political.
Abstract FRE
L'exil, l'esclavage et la persécution étaient des thèmes tendus et souvent difficiles dans l'histoire africaine et juive.
Pour les Juifs, le désir de retourner à Jérusalem était une réponse à la situation désespérée rencontrée dans le monde entier ainsi qu'un besoin d'accomplir une prophétie religieuse.
Pour les Africains, le rapatriement en Afrique signifiait une échappatoire au racisme institutionnel et aux abus des blancs dans les Églises des États-Unis.
À travers une lecture attentive des pensées de Blyden, l'article révèle que Blyden a vu que la situation juive ressemblait à celle de l'Afrique car les deux étaient harcelés et stigmatisés.
Pourtant, il a confirmé que le cas juif est différent dans le sens où le désir de rapatriement des Juifs était complètement religieux bien plus que racial ou politique.
