You're right. My fault, I looked it up and don't know where that came from but the evidence doesn't seem to exist at all and I'm not sure why I remembered that as being a thing.
Oh, phew! I thought I was about to get bombarded by hate replies from Black Israelites or something (no relation to the actual country). Thanks for the grace.
