Black people, white people, nor the Church replaced Israel. God has covenant with Israel and God has a covenant with His Church.
We are in Christ and are not under the Curse of the Law. We are not of the works of the law. We are of faith. What African-Americans went through is not because they did not keep the law. To insinuate so is devilish and an open door to a trap.
The Table of Nations of Genesis 10 are the families / nations God spoke about in Gen 12 and Gal 3.

seasons - moed - an appointed time, a fixed time, a set time
God sets appointed times, He gives fixed times, God has moeds.
God sets appointed times, He gives fixed times, God has moeds.
feasts - moeds
David Baron - This chapter may well be styled the Sacred Calendar of the History of Redemption for not only are each of the appointed seasons of meeting between the Lord and His people, considered seperately, full of emblematic and spiritual teaching, but taken together they form a series of striking symbolic prophecies, some fulfilled, some yet to be fulfilled and thus foretell as well as set forth the Great Plan of Redemption. There feasts (moeds) are not of man's origination, but appointed and ordered by His who is infiinte knowledge, and who knows the end from the beginning. - These are all predictions of those things they typified. Their fulfillment is equally certain. The very order in which stand in the sacred calendar is significant as setting forth the order of sequence in which the various stages of God's great redemption scheme were to unfold themselves in the courses of the ages.
7 Feasts, the 7 Moeds
These moeds were connected to harvests. Each moed has a historical event, a harvest, and a fulfillment.
The Sacred Calendar
Passover begins and sets and motion the following moeds and events
Passover - fulfillment - Jesus crucified and offered as our substitute
Feast of Unleavened Bread -
1Cor. 5:6-8… Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump?
Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us: Therefore let us keep the feast (of unleavened bread), not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the
unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.
“Cause and effect…if the paschal lamb sets forth Christ our Passover slain in order to bring us pardon, peace, and new life, the feast of unleavened bread was designed to prefigure the holiness of the new life, and the fellowship with God which must characterize the redeemed."
The Presentation Sheaf of First Fruits
1Cor. 15:20
But now Christ has been raised from the dead, the first fruits of those who are asleep
Shavout/ Pentecost
The fulfillment of Shavuot/ Pentecost took place in Acts 2, which records the Baptism in the Holy Spirit on the Day of Pentecost.
The Interval Between the Fulfilled and Unfulfilled Moeds
David Baron, Types, Psalms and Prophecies, pages 44, 46
"So far we have dealt with prophetic types which have already received their fulfillment in the Christian dispensation... We come now to that part of the Sacred Calendar in the History of Redemption, the fulfillment of which is, as I believe, yet in the future ... From Pentecost ... on the 6th of the month Sivan, till the 1st of Tishri, a period of nearly four months out of the seven, the sacred calendar is (with the exception of the celebrations of the New Moons) a blank."
Could this be a hint to us of the space between Pentecost and the fulfillment of the Unfulfilled Moeds?
The Unfulfilled Moeds
The Feast of Trumpets, the start of the Civil Year, sets in motion the following moeds and events.
Rosh Hashanah - The Feast of Trumpets - fulfilled at the Rapture of the Church
Yom Kippur - Day of Atonement - Christ is our Atonement, but the full fulfillment of the Day of Atonement is when Israel turns as a nation to their Messiah
The Feast of Tabernacles - What every moed was leading to - God dwelling with man - the last and great day of the feast - the feast of all feasts, the moed of all moeds
Note:
The seventy bullocks sacrificed on the Feast of Tabernacles were offered to atone for the seventy nations.
Time and the Number Seven
Creation: The Creator created for six days and rested on the seventh.
Adam: He was given a six–day workweek for the development of earth
Seven days = One Week.
The Jews’ law of Sabbath. Six–day workweek. The Sabbath
(seventh) rest.
Moeds that are seven–day festivals: Pesach (Passover), Sukkot (Tabernacles).
Jewish Weddings: Marriages are celebrated for one full week.
Death: Families sit shivah for seven days of mourning.
Shmittah is a seven year cycle. The Shmittah year begins on Rosh HaShanah, the 1st of the month of Tishrei, and ends the next year at that time.
