Dr. William Lucius Hunter, MD (1850-1915) was a physician and a clergyman of the African Methodist-Episcopal Church. For his 1901 book 'Jesus Christ Had Negro Blood in His Veins', he researched scripture in order to combat racial discrimination and abuse. He identifies the biblical Canaanites as having been black and argues that several important Jewish figures and ancestors of Jesus had children by this group of people. Showing that David and Solomon married black women, he contends that Jesus had black ancestry dating back to Ham, the son of Noah.
