Bio: Dr Michael T Miller works in Jewish Studies and Religious Studies, specialising in Jewish mysticism and philosophy, and more recently, Black Judaism. His current research looks at the Black Hebrew Israelite movement, an autonomous African American form of Judaism. In particular he works on the African Hebrew Israelites, a community that emigrated to Israel in 1969 and have developed their own syncretic religious lifestyle there. This work has led to an interest in African American religion generally, especially as it evolved during the twentieth century.-GIRES
