	Zionism and Slavery in Sudan - Palestine Solidarity Review
		In claiming to be against slavery, Zionism supports the purchase of slaves and their assimilation into “free” society, which in reality is a racist society with its own contemporary forms of race and class-based oppression.
		Zionism's position towards slavery in Africa is an empty ruse that many progressives get caught in because of their shared notions with other ideologies.
		Zionism, without the broader context of U.S. empire and white supremacy, abstracts itself from all political discussion and avoids the real consequences of its role in maintaining these institutions.

	Magic and religion - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It is at this stage of development that highly codified and elaborate rituals, setting the stage for formal religions, began to emerge, such as the funeral rites of the Egyptians and the sacrifice rituals of the Babylonians, Persians, Aztecs and Maya civilizations.
		Some religions believe in transferring holiness to objects and places; this is often seen in even simple things like "christening" ceremonies for a new boat.
		One of the more controversial practices in magic and religion both, this involves a sacrifice to a supernatural being, such as a god, angel, or demon, who is asked to intervene on behalf of the person performing the sacrifice.

		Religion is mapped onto ethnicity in the construction of the figure of Moses.
		Religion is tied to ethnicity, for Moses’ continual respect for the Hebrews—as well as all others who are “different”—and his advocacy of fairness and equal treatment stand in stark contrast to the views of all other Egyptians portrayed in the film.
		Religion is a fixed and natural ethnic identity, and recognizing that identity is the springboard for liberation.

		The racism of political Zionism is a perfectly coherent system which inspires all the laws and all the practices of the State of Israel.
		In fact, to be a decent Jew one has to be opposed to the political programme of zionism and be therefore anti-zionist precisely in the sense that in order to be a decent South African Christian one had to be anti-apartheid and that being anti-apartheid did not mean being anti-Christian or pro-devil or anti-White.

	Oriental Zionism of Arab-born Jews, One thousand years before Theodore Herzl
		Zionism was in the Arab countries with every prayer we uttered for millennia before Herzl.
		Not only were the Sephardic Jews "numerous" in the Holy Land, but their Language, Hebrew, was popularly used "in the ordinary affairs of life" long before the "new Jewish immigration of the early eighteen-eighties."[61] In 1839 British Consul Young, in Jerusalem, reported that "the mode of conducting Jewish affairs among themselves...
		But this wistful turning to the lovely scenes of their native lands, their joy in the colorful traditions they knew in their youth, and the universal, perhaps healthier tendency to prefer recollection of the sweet moments of life rather than the bitter, should not obscure the actualities.

		States of health, for example, have been shaped by changes in farming (which led to alterations in the distribution of disease-bearing insects and also in the foods that children eat), and by changes in migration and urbanization (leading to the movement of diseases from place to place along with the movement of people).
		The practical application of African survival-knowledge was subject to government control, to laws that dictated where people might live and how they might cultivate -- that attempted to put European knowledge and practice into the place of the African forms.
		The complexity of this story makes it a difficult one to grasp, for it is built on the history of local African religions and of biological processes, of diverse child- rearing practices and of farming patterns, of divination techniques and of health bureaucracies.

		Zionism, as envisioned by its founder and as practiced by many of its subsequent adherents, was an anti-racist movement - neither an ideology of racial superiority nor one of racial exclusivity.
		At the same time, it is also important for those who condemn Zionism, especially on the left, to understand what they are condemning - to realize that Zionism is a force that can inspire social justice and equality, and that Zionists who are racist are that way despite their Zionism rather than because of it.

		With the rise of nationalism in the 19th century, and the rise of Zionism, Hanukkah assumed a new significance.

		Proto-Zionist groups such as Hibbat Zion in Russia and Eastern Europe emphasized the celebration of Hanukkah as a holiday of national liberation and as a means of bringing children closer to their heritage, and making Judaism meaningful for those who were not strictly observant.
