Larry David Learns About His Jewish-Confederate Slave-Owner Great-Great-Grandfather

Comedian Larry David allowed Henry Louis Gates, Jr., host of “Finding Your Roots” on PBS, to do a little genealogical digging. On live T.V., Gates reveals to David that they traced his family line to Henry Bernstein of Mobile, Alabama, who was David’s great-great-grandfather back in the Civil War era. And, as it turns out, Bernstein was a slave owner.

Bernstein was also one of 3,000 Jewish Confederate soldiers. He owned two slaves, which seemed to blow David’s obviously conditioned mind. We think Gates, as a real historian, knew the hidden secret all along from doing other Jewish genealogies. He asks David, “What part of the Jewish experience is this?”

David says it’s part of a family history that no one ever talked about nor had ever mentioned this truth bomb to him. Of course faked self-depreciation is part of David’s schtick, so who knows.

To be perfectly fair to Larry David, his southern Jewish great-great grandfather was not an oddity or an outlier. Although not a large demographic, almost without exception Southern Jewry was very loyal to the Lost Cause. And many in the North were openly sympathetic or outright Copperheads.

In fact, as southern antebellum Jews go, his ancestor, poor ol’ Henry Bernstein, was a piker with only two slaves. Most southern Jews were active slave holders and traders with over a third owning five or more. One of the largest slave owners in all the South was Jacob Cohen of Georgetown, South Carolina with 294 slaves.

In contrast, I have census records for all my paternal great-great and great-great-great-grandparents. They were all gentile “cracker” southerners who fought for the Confederacy — and only one owned one slave. Too poor is my assumption – like most southerner whites.

David handled the revelation and outing stoically; but at minute 2:15, he exhibits his (and the universal) ignorance of true history by claiming “his people” were part of the battle against the South and slavery. In fact, besides being substantial slave owners, the Jews played almost no role in the Abolitionist Movement.  They were so disengaged that real abolitionists castigated them in frustration. In the North, Jews played key roles in cotton trading and textiles and were motivated to keep the product flowing.

Jewish Professor Salo Baron perceived no moral dilemma on the part of 19th-century Jews: “Jewish merchants, auctioneers, and commission agents in southern states continued to buy and sell slaves until the end of the Civil War. … At no time did Southern Jews feel tainted by the slave trade.”

Some, especially blacks, expected the moral lead in the abolition of slavery to be assumed by the “people of the Bible.” But many commentators during and since were puzzled by such fervent defense of a system out in which Jews presumably made their Biblical trek. The American and Foreign Anti-Slavery Society in their report of 1853 expressed their frustration. Excerpts from the report state:

The Jews of the United States have never taken any steps whatever with regard to the slavery question. As citizens, they deem it their policy to have every one choose which ever side he may deem best to promote his own interests and the welfare of his country. They [142] have no organization of an ecclesiastical body to represent their general views; no General Assembly, or its equivalent. The American Jews have two newspapers, but they do not interfere in any discussion which is not material to their religion. It cannot be said that the Jews have formed any denominational opinion on the subject of American slavery… The objects of so much mean prejudice and unrighteous oppression as the Jews have been for ages, surely they, it would seem, more than any other denomination, ought to be the enemies of caste, and friends of universal freedom. [Louis Ruchames, “Abolitionists and the Jews,” PAJHS, vol. 42 (1952), pp. 153-54]

Even the Jewish scholars can find but a few sentences of Jewish protest over the plight of the Black slave. It is now clear, writes Dr. Marcus, “that most antebellum Jews, those in the North as well as in the South, cared little about the moral issues of human bondage.

“Jews not only accepted this doctrine, Dr. Korn admits, but “some of them helped to formulate and circulate it …

Those Jews who stood against the institution were scorned and rebuked — most harshly by their own brethren in the synagogue. Even the anti-slavery Jews, opposed the spread of slavery not out of sympathy for the condition of Blacks, but because it was a threat to their jobs. [Robert Korn, “Jews and Negro Slavery,” p .215]

All 21 synagogues in the South were pro-Confederate; and of those in the North, there is no history of a rebuke of the slavocracy or support of emancipation. All southern synagogues excluded blacks from membership. In fact, instead, influential Jews pushed for Christianizing the slaves. Post Civil War, they were hard-line segregationists, at least until the end of the 19th century, when Eastern Europeans emerged on the political scene.

“The pursuit of wealth in slaves and usury not only violated Jewish ethics but destroyed the rough democracy imposed upon a people in exile. Initially, the Jews looked to their rabbis and scholars for guidance. Eventually, the aristocracy of learning gave way to the aristocracy of wealth. Leadership of the community passed from the wise man to the rich man, a curse of organizational Jewry even today.” [ Roberta Strauss Feuerlicht, The Fate of the Jews: A People Torn Between Israeli Power and Jewish Ethics, p. 39.]

The slavery debate raged across the country but no Jewish leaders of the Old South “ever expressed any reservations about the justice of slavery or the rightness of the southern position.”[ Abraham J. Karp, Haven and Home: A History of Jews in America. p. 29]

Jewish clergy did not even discuss black slavery until 1860, and then primarily in support of it. Jewish writer Arthur Hertzberg sums up their position [Hertzberg, The Jews in America: Four Centuries of an Uneasy Encounter]:

As was to be expected, the Jewish clergy in the South, without exception, endorsed the Confederacy. These preachers, most of whom were quite recent immigrants from Germany, summoned up great passion in their defense of states’ rights. They repeated the conventional platitudes of that day, that the black race was incapable of taking care of itself.

No event caused the forces of bondage to rejoice more than when Rabbi Morris Jacob Raphall of Congregation B’nai Ieshurun in New York issued a sermon that was to become known as the “Bible Defense of Slavery.” On Jan. 4, 1861, he preached the most publicized sermon ever delivered by an American Jew up to that time:

It remains a fact which cannot be gainsaid that in his own native home, and generally throughout the world, the unfortunate negro is indeed the meanest of slaves. Much had been said respecting the inferiority of his intellectual powers, and that no man of his race has ever inscribed his name on the Parthenon of human excellence, either mental or moral.

‘What he did,” Dr. Korn wrote, “was to place Judaism squarely in opposition to the philosophy of abolitionism… and insisted that… biblical tradition and law guaranteed the right to own slaves.” This critical confirmation of “God’s will” from a prominent and respected Jewish authority, indeed the highest paid American clergyman, gave the slavemaster all he needed to fight the righteous battle against the abolitionists. [Robert Korn, “The Civil War,” p. 17]

One lone Rabbi, David Einhorn, spoke out against the prevailing attitude, and was run out of his Baltimore congregation in 1861:

Of the moral condition: There are enough churches, synagogues and temples, but there is very little religion, little morality … here [among the Jews]. Everything is empty, everything is glimmer … Here, too, rules the golden eagle rather than the … Here, too, all feelings of the heart and dreams are concentrated only on acquiring [things] … There is only one thought: to make as much as possible. [Fein, Baltimore Jews]

The Jewish press weighed in with its opinion on the matter of black slavery and of the character of the African as well. Again, the abolitionists were bitterly disappointed. The Jewish Record of Jan. 23, 1863:

We know not how to speak in the same breath of the Negro and the Israelite. The very names have startlingly opposite sounds — one representing all that is debased and inferior in the hopeless barbarity and heathenism of six thousand years; the other, the days when Jehovah conferred on our fathers the glorious equality which led the Eternal to converse with them, and allow them to enjoy the communion of angels. Thus the abandoned fanatics insult the choice of God himself, in endeavoring to reverse the inferiority which he stamped on the African, to make him the compeer, even in bondage, of His chosen people.

There is no parallel between such races. Humanity from pole to pole would scout such a comparison. The Hebrew was originally free; and the charter of his liberty was inspired by his Creator. The Negro was never free; and his bondage in Africa was simply duplicated in a milder form when he was imported here … The judicious in all the earth agree that to proclaim the African equal to the surrounding races, would be a farce which would lead the civilized conservatism of the world to denounce the outrage. [ Hugh H. Smythe, Martin S. Price, “The American Jew and Negro Slavery,” The Midwest Journal, vol. 7, no. 4 (1955-56), p. 318]

29 Comments on Larry David Learns About His Jewish-Confederate Slave-Owner Great-Great-Grandfather

  1. Again, the war of northern aggression was never about human slaves, it was about making all southerner’s slaves through outrageous tariffs to be imposed on the south by the north.
    Jews did figure very heavily in the war for southern independence. Jew Judah P. Benjamin was Jefferson Davis right hand man and even had his picture on Confederate money. Some say it was Benjamin who cost the south the war by influencing Jefferson Davis decision to not pursue the north and take Washington D.C. early in the war at the first Battle of Bull(Yankee)Run.

    • Lincoln made EVERY American a slave to the Federal Government. one need only make even a cursory examination of his capricious violations of practically every aspect of the Constitution, up to and including introducing the Draft.
      .
      what “freedom” of association or thought or speech is there when the Feds can just waltz up and drag you off and send you to the front line of a war you never agreed with … and then if you show “Cowardice in the Face of the Enemy”, you can be executed? and then, post war, the Republicans passed an Amendment completely violating the integrity of every person of conscious by REQUIRING that a private business or any public institution could not choose whom they would refuse to do business with. that’s why today we have idiocy like churches being required to provide abortion services and ordination of women and perverts. it’s because you allowed the 13th Amendment.
      .
      you don’t like racism? that’s fine, refuse to do business with every establishment that has a Whites Only sign.

  2. Chance to check out the Houston school shooting on the ground? Take a good camera.

    Bunch of kids outside doing a drill when “shots were heard”

    Student: We assembled outside for a fire drill, then we heard gunshots

    A Santa Fe High School student described the moment they all heard gunshots.

    “So, it was just a normal-like class day. We all were doing our work in first period. And then all of a sudden like it’s a fire drill,” 14-year-old junior Angelica Martinez said.

    “So we followed the fire drill procedures. And then we went outside. Like we were all standing there, but not even five minutes later, we all start hearing gunshots.” That’s when everybody starts running, she said, despite teachers telling them to “stay put.”

    “But we’re all just running away.”

    • Santa Fe is a far Suburb (probably not even) of Houston and its actually closer to Galveston than anything. There’s a dairy 1 mile from the High School I frequent. Lower class area with not many industries or ‘planned communities’, could even be considered a farming community. Probably the last hold out of active KKK chapter in Texas as they are in the news often for ‘leaflet sightings’ once or more a year. 94% anglo/white community.

      I haven’t glanced at the feed yet but did see a note this morning and brushed it off as another ‘true crime’ related incident for the Houston metro-plex as we get a lot of loonies that are chased by police by schools or disgruntled employee types.

      Will look into it.

      • Has similarities to the Sutherland Springs incident. Small community outside a major city, small police force. I don’t imagine there are too many ‘bright’ minds within Santa Fe PD and would probably have called in back up to handle a situation like this.

      • Looking at the images on DailyMail, the students and parent pairs are legitimate people that would be living in Santa Fe, working class white families in cheaper clothing. I’d throw a red flag if I saw people with cleaner faces. Only footage I’m seeing now around the school is standard ‘muh authoritah’ pomp and circumstance by our militarized police for show of force/justify their budget kind of crap.

        Will have to see what the narrative is.

      • Photo of ‘alleged shooter Greek-American Dimitrios Pagourtzis’ with a headband sporting a gay-bisexual solidarity symbol

        Social media images include a ‘Born to Kill’ shirt, a jacket with German & USSR symbols including the German Iron Cross, and demons Baphomet and Cthulhu (latter from H P Lovecraft)

        And how’s this for satanic insider signalling – This school shooting happened just after a US military helicopter “dropped a whole box of ammunition on an elementary school in El Paso, Texas” … The name of that school was Parkland Elementary School … sharing a name with Parkland, Florida that was the site of the 14 February 2018 school shooting allegedly by ‘Nikolas Cruz’

    • I was having a chat with my brother last month stating that these hoaxes seem to have a 6 week cycle and back in April said lets see what happens around the 20th of May…Oops A Sunday so no school…So going forward 6 weeks …hey look!! July 4th is pretty close to that. My theory, The hoaxes are contracted to one group and as with government contracts, they usually are of a quantity and qualitative RFP. So lets see Blackwater gets 8-9 “events” for 2018 of which x are schools and why are ?…The BW Mini bus has left town and needs a few days off and then back to work….There may be some rats n mice little ones in the mix but If we ascribe to the Hoax theory, it is only prudent to suspect a single agent or agency is running them

      • The idea of a traveling troupe is also Ole Dammegard’s hypothesis.

        You notice that other than a few rolled out for interviews that you never see the faces of the players anymore. Besides telescopic lens filming and blurring they are covered with gear and helmets. In the video just released at Vegas you can’t clearly make out any of the police.

  3. We evaluate these events individually on their own merits. Your point about the Kentucky shooting is a straw man argument as we never examined that one, so please don’t overgeneralize. We aren’t claiming that every single school shooting is staged.

    Appeal to incredulity or avoiding views because they may be unpopular or not conventional wisdom is also a fallacious argument, having little to do with the truth on the matter.

  4. True, not about slavery at all. I think it was actually a new legalistic type of recolonization of the USA through the already corrupted northern states by England. Davis lost the war with the help of Benjamin (by Masonic design most likely imo). Confederate General and lifelong Davis enemy PGT Beauregard said as much.

    • Gen. Beauregard’s Masonic Walking Stick

      All those west point graduates were freemasons, and they are still so today. Here is an interesting blurb from wiki about Beauregard and Anderson, the two masons who started the War Between the Masonic Lodges:

      “Major Robert Anderson at Fort Sumter wrote to Washington, D.C., that Beauregard, who had been his student at West Point in 1837, would guarantee that South Carolina’s actions be exercised with “skill and sound judgment.” Beauregard wrote to the first Confederate capital of Montgomery, Alabama, that Anderson was a “most gallant officer”. He sent several cases of fine brandy and whiskey and boxes of cigars to Anderson and his officers at Sumter, but Anderson ordered that the gifts be returned.”

      Beauregard likely could have take Washington. So could have Jubal Early:

      “After the loss of these two railway executive positions, Beauregard spent time briefly at a variety of companies and civil engineering pursuits, but his personal wealth became assured when he was recruited as a supervisor of the Louisiana State Lottery Company in 1877. He and former Confederate general Jubal Early presided over lottery drawings and made numerous public appearances, lending the effort some respectability. For 15 years the two generals served in these positions, but the public became opposed to government-sponsored gambling and the lottery was closed down by the legislature.”

      Judah Benjamin absconded to England with then entire Treasury of the Confederacy and lived the rest of his life in prosperity as a ward of the Rothschilds.

      Of course Lee was always called the greatest general of the Masonic war, and he too was allowed to live the rest of his life in comfort. Early, who had Washington DC in his sites, ran the lottery with Beauregard.

      The American Revolution, the French Revolution, The Civil War, WWI, the Russian Revolution, WWII, the Korean war, and impending Second US civil war are all completely Masonic creations. The real truth has nothing to do with the lies Americans swallow hook, line and sinker.

      • Not all freemasons are bad guys in on the conspiracy. William Morgan wasn’t, and you wouldn’t have a clue about it without him blowing the whistle. Most masons are ignorant dupes in all this and still in the blue lodge. Jefferson Davis was also a mason, Beauregard hated him and considered Davis his enemy. He refused to eulogize Davis at the latter’s funeral, and said that he was glad Davis was gone, exclaiming that he wasn’t a hypocrite and wouldn’t pretend that he was Davis’ friend. You consistently paint with too broad of a brush when talking about groups of people and ignore the agency of the individual. You do it to black people in your comments consistently, yet we have Dontrell Jackson’s site to see you’re wrong about that. So please let me know what the real truth is, since you think you know. Of course the large majority of American blacks are living in ignorance right now. You could say the same about whites and freemasons. I know one thing- you’re wrong in your sweeping generalizations.

        • “Not all freemasons are bad guys in on the conspiracy.”

          Both my father and grandfather were masons, I have both their Masonic rings as proof. They were both US Air Force officers too, in WWI and the Korean war. Trust me, I want to believe that they were merely “ignorant dupes”. But that does not change the content of and their obedience to the secret oaths they took.

          Fast forward to today. A cop, or any city worker, who works for a corrupt modern US city or state is tainted by their participation. The same applies to any black who is “in for the struggle”. Actions have meaning.

          But this has nothing to do with the underlying malevolent purpose of these secret societies. Sure, many southerners rightfully fought for a confederacy of states and for states rights. But when we look back on history we have to recognize that all of them were useful idiots, on both sides, just like the Russian, English and American soldiers murdering and raping their way across Europe in order to genocide the Germans in the name of the new luciferian globalist world order.

          We do them no honor by pretending that their ignorance and manipulation was honorable or even innocent. The same applies to MBA’s working for banks and hedge funds in London and New York, the entire US military, and the entire US government.

          The fact the Beauregard, Early, Lee, and Pike ended up with not only with their skin intact, but with all that wealth after the war is a very strong indication that they was not mere “dupes”.

          • Nah, you’re painting too broad again, but your statement about actions mattering is correct. I judge William Morgan to be a good man, even though he was a mason, Beauregard also, and I formed that opinion by evaluating their actions. I hope your dad and grandpa were good men also. They certainly aren’t automatically guilty by association because they took an oath that they possibly knew little about. I hardly ever apply hanlons razor, but I do here in this instance. To assume that most masons join in because they’re enthusiastically in support of the conspiracy is as incorrect as assuming that they all joined for altruistic purposes. And I’m not trying to devalue the destructive spiritual meaning of their oath. My father and grandpa were members of a fraternal organization also and I sometimes wonder if swearing such an oath has a mental and physical toll, in addition to the spiritual.

  5. Here is good source who was behind slave trade. Jews and arabs dominated trade mark call slavery. There was far more white slaves sold by jews and Islamic parasites, compare to all races and nobody remember, because media are in hands of the perpetrators !!!

    https://christiansfortruth.com/jewish-dominance-of-the-african-slave-trade/

    Here is heartbreaking book, “White Gold”, forgotten story of ONE and Half million white slaves sold in north Africa.
    https://www.amazon.com/White-Gold-Giles-Milton/dp/0340794704/ref=sr_1_3?dchild=1&keywords=white+gold&qid=1592044440&sr=8-3

  6. 2:35: “You found it. I knew it, I knew it”. Typical lying jew. He claims that he didn’t know, but then comes the slip of the tongue. Yes, he did know it, and he has being lying about it his entire life. He knows a lot more than just that, likely he knows about the 6 gorillion too.

    2:50 “Slaves: one female age 4 mulatto. One female age 17 mulatto” Wow. So not only was this kike a child molester (17-4=13), but he kept his own daughter as a slave. Actually there is nothing surprising here, the Talmud says that every jew will have 3000 goyim slaves after they have completed Solomon’s third temple. Most jews are salivating at the lips waiting to collect their slaves. Perhaps this is why the Georgia Guidestones say “keep humanity at 500,000 souls”. Just enough for jews to fill their new-age prophesised plantations.

  7. Here’s another one. CNN Jewish news anchor Anderson Pooper Cooper learns that his slave-owning grandfather was beaten to death at 80 years old by a rebellious slave in 1860. Anderson has won awards for his ability to subtly feign shock and concern.

  8. The problem with any popular discussion of slavery today is that it occurs within the political context of the ‘legacy of slavery’, meaning the low SES (socioeconomic status) of Blacks — so it’s just more racial guilt mongering, trying to make Whites feel guilty about, and be responsible for (reparations), something they had nothing to do with, and affirming the victimhood of Blacks by giving them a scapegoat for the problems they have prospering in a high-functioning, first world society.

    No scholarly or academic investigation of slavery will ever be free of this context either.

    After more than 150 years, self-respecting Whites should make it clear they want nothing to do with any of that.
