Is there any credence to the claim made by Moorish-Americans that black Americans are descendants of the Moors who traveled to North America hundreds of years ago and lived there ever since?

I have come across a person who has fanatical belief in this. After a bit of researching I found that there are actually quite a few people that base their entire reality on these claims. I am just wondering if anyone knows more about their beliefs, how they came to the conclusions that they did and if there is any truth to them?
