Israelite School of Universal Practical Knowledge

Israelite School of Universal Practical Knowledge (ISUPK) is an American non-profit organization and black supremacist,[1][2][3] extremist religious sect[4] based in Upper Darby, Pennsylvania.

[3][4] The Southern Poverty Law Center has designated the ISUPK a hate group, citing its extremist ideology and black supremacist rhetoric.

It is a documentary by British journalist Harry Robinson covering the beliefs and practices of the ISUPK, focusing on the Oklahoma branch of the school.

[7] In 2023, media reported that a woman of Palestinian descent was arrested in Indianapolis after crashing her car into a building affiliated with ISUPK, having mistaken it for a school officially linked to the State of Israel.

[8] ISUPK has demonstrated many times at the corner of Seventh and H Streets in Washington, D.C., since 2004,[9] but residents complain that the group amplifies its open-air preaching to more than 90 decibels and that its message is offensive.
