An Ethiopian Jew or even a black Jewish convert is no less worthy than a vanilla Jew, but that’s not to say that chazal don’t attribute certain characteristics to various races. Chazal very much believe in “stereotypes” – ie: Yishamel being violent, Yisrael being kshei oref, bnei Canaan being better suited for subservience, etc…
