S2 Ep. 9 - The Black Gods Pt. 3
Manage episode 316010577 series 3098753
In the previous episode, Specialist Ma'asehyahu Isra-Ul presented the premise that it was Marcus Mosiah Garvey who laid the groundwork for "Black Godism" in America. While there were others who presented themselves as "Gods" in black flesh (i.e. Father Divine), it was Garvey who defined the purpose and need for having a "Black God". In this part III, we delve into the history of the Five-Percenters and the Nubian Nation and how these organizations took Black Godism from the worship of an external deity into the "awakening" of being the embodiment of this deity. Welcome back as we continue this journey into black religion, identity and metaphysical liberation - compliments of "the Black Gods".
