This book was released on 2019-09-05 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this title is to debunk the white supremacist narrative of Europe's Middle Ages. It begins by revealing that the first Europeans were migrants from Africa in antiquity followed by soldiers recruited by the Roman Empire, Christian evangelists from both north and northeastern Africa (today's Middle East) than populated by blacks. They and their progeny were the center of European history through the Middle Ages. That progeny became Europe's nobles, royals, bourgeoisie, and leading clerics of the Catholic Church. They were known as "blue-bloods" because they were fair or very light-skinned blacks whose veins appeared to be blue as seen through the skin. They have chapters or krewes that claim to be connected to Europe's monarchial rulers. According to the Economist (2016), there are the blue-blood organizations-"krewes," in New Orleans's Mardi Gras parlance-that have been parading since the late 1800s, when the festival was introduced to the city by French Catholic settlers who were attesting to lineage to the European aristocracy that ruled through the Middle Ages. This group in both the Old and New Worlds were recognized as Moors because their ancient lineage can be traced to Mauritania, in West Africa, and Kemet along the Nile Valley in East Africa.The Moors are Black Africans. They once constituted Rome's finest soldiers, numerous emperors. Their prodigy served as renowned knights during the Middle Ages that saved Europe from pagan violence, pillage, and chaos. In addition, they and prodigy were the founders and evangelist of Christianity. As learned men, they conveyed ancient Kemet philosophy and science transcribed by Greco-Latin and Islamic scholars. That knowledge would give birth to the Renaissance and Modern Era's ingenuity and invention.Black and brown complexioned, they were leaders among Europe's nobles and bourgeoisie that arose in number after the 12th century when trade and commerce was triggered by trading settlements and routs established in the holy lands by virtue of the Crusades. Intermarriage thrived to enhance hegemony and lineage. The African lineage as displayed on the "coat of arms" depicts one or more Black Africans as father(s) or seeder(s) of the family as bestowed by kings and/or emperors. The idolized images of Virgin Mary and Jesus the Savior of Our Souls and God in human form were depicted as black. Statutes to blacks who fought for Christianity are found throughout Europe and Russia.Black Africans had god-like status until their capture and enslavement in the continent beginning in the 16th and 17th centuries to extract agricultural and mining wealth from the New World. This book shatters the "white supremacist paradigm" accorded to the Middle Ages as a triumph of white chivalry in a quest to save Eurocentric Christianity, civilization, and white womanhood from all these Islamic, swarthy, savage, Othello-like, infidels standing in the way of human progress. Mainstream history was rewritten to falsely proclaim that blacks had no meaningful presence in human history prior to their enslavement and conversion to humble Christian servants. To ensure this myth is believed, the black and brown portraits and sculptures of the ruling class had to be either whitened or remodeled to appear idealistically Caucasian or Nordic. The book unravels the mainstream narrative from the so-called white Roman occupation to the Renaissance. It looks at key figures, knightly order, royals and emperors that were either black, brown, or blue blood prodigies who fought off intruders from Asia, particularly from Central Russia, Turkey's Ottoman Empire, and Islamic Africa. The case and evidence that they served as saviors of Europe's civilization and human progress that would be free to pursue a rebirth and reconnection to Africa's philosophy and science from its ancient past.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jerzy Lukowski shows the pressures and tensions, both from below and from governments, which increasingly challenged traditional ruling groups in Europe during the century before the French Revolution. The position of the nobility depended on a stable world which accepted their authority; but that world was becoming fractured as a result of social and economic developments and new ideas. Lukowski explains the basic mechanisms of noble existence and examines how the European nobility sought to preserve a sense of solidarity in the midst of widespread change.

Download or read book When Blacks Ruled Greece and Rome written by Rufus O Jimerson and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-04-08 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this book is to resurrect the truth regarding the original black founders and developers of Greek and Roman Civilizations from being buries by whitewashing which falsely accredited Indo-Europeans. The book, in doing so, examines the extent of the Global African Civilization which was plagiarized by Aryan Greeks and Romans. It dispels the myth that these foundations of Western Civilization were homogenous and white. They were multiracial and multicultural societies until their identities were transformed by the hordes of white barbarians who became a majority in Rome and Athens by the 4th century of the Christian Era (CE) or After the Death of Christ (AD). Black migrants from Africa brought Kemetian civilization from the Nile Valley out of Kush and Nubia (Modern day Sudan, Ethiopia, Somali, and Egypt) to establish Athens, other Greek city-states, and Rome on the Italian peninsula. The focal point of the growth of civilization in the Mediterrean region that would reach all continents was trade, commerce, and ensuing acquisition of wealth accrued by African maritime empires and that of Kemet (Early Egypt), both of which grew from colonies established by Kush. The latter empire mined gold used to finance ship building, exploration, building cities, employing mercenaries, and promoting reading and writing to cultivate invention, as well as record and codify business transactions and laws. The pattern for growth and spread of civilization began with trade between trading posts and empires with the latter their becoming colonies. These colonies would become independent city-states and grow into empires themselves by establishing markets for trade and turning them into colonies. The cyclical pattern of development was ruled by Black Africans and their direct descendants for more than 3,000 years before the onset of the Aryan-dominated Christian Era. The focus of this book is antiquity prior to the Aryan invasion of civilization which initiated the Middle Ages or Dark Ages and setbacks in the West that lasted a millennium until the Renaissance was built on rediscovery of the African Mystery System.The research unveiled demonstrates that Greece and Rome were multiracial societies. Their identity was stolen by Eurasian barbarians who flooded the empire during the era when Serapis was transformed from Horus to Jesus Christ and Christianity became the state religion of the Roman empire. This transformation at the end of this book began with the Council of Nicaea. This book focuses on antiquity beginning about 3,000 B.C., when Ancient African Empires ruled civilization on all continents building markets, trading goods, accruing wealth, spreading literacy, and building pyramids.

Two additional concise chapters provide a focused analysis of the construction of specific dynasties (the Golden Horde and the Habsburgs) and narratives of kingship found in fiction throughout Eurasia. The contributors and editors, authorities in their fields, systematically bring together specialised literature on numerous Eurasian kingdoms and empires. This book is a careful and thought-provoking experiment in the global, comparative and connected history of rulers and elites.

Book excerpt: Why is it that encyclopedias assert the Vikings, or Norsemen, landed in parts of North America, yet the Vikings have never been credited with its discovery? Historians bestow this honor on Christopher Columbus, who ventured here five hundred years after the Vikings, having never set foot on the continent! True Myth: Black Vikings of the Middle Ages takes the reader where he or she has never been before. We have always been told that Vikings, or Norsemen, were tall, blond, white and blue-eyedan image that has been presented to us in books and films. Now comes a book that challenges this centuries-old assertion, presenting evidence that these vaunted warriors were not the people popular historians have told us they were. The author presents evidence that white-skinned peoples in England, Ireland, and Wales referred to Vikings as black pagans and black devils. The extent of their dominance in Europe is examinedin fact, the author presents a reassessment of Europe that some readers will find difficult to believe, beginning with mans migrations into the continent and examining a number of black-skinned peoples who called Europe home from very ancient times almost to the present. The reader has never read a book like thisfilled with quotations from noted historians as well as from several Icelandic sagasthat will take the reader on a journey he or she has never imagined! A more accurate picture of Europe has never been presented before. The writer revisits the last ice age, presents evidence of the heavy presence of blacks in ancient Europe, and revisits ancient Greece, Rome, and areas of Asia, discussing the presence of black-skinned peoples in them before arriving in Viking-age Scandinavia when Norsemen embarked on a three-century-long assault on the continent and began migrating to Iceland and other areas of North America. Once the reader has completed True Myth: Black Vikings of the Middle Ages, he or she will have to question what he or she has been taught, historians once thought to be trustworthy, and the notion that the races were strictly divided and had never intermingled. There has never been a truer picture of Europe written, and the reader now has the opportunity to embark on the most thrilling journey he or she will ever take.

Download or read book Triumph written by H.W. Crocker III and published by Crown. This book was released on 2009-02-25 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For 2,000 years, Catholicism—the largest religion in the world and in the United States—has shaped global history on a scale unequaled by any other institution. But until now, Catholics interested in their faith have been hard-pressed to find an accessible, affirmative, and exciting history of the Church. Triumph is that history. Inside, you'll discover the spectacular story of the Church from Biblical times and the early days of St. Peter—the first pope—to the twilight years of John Paul II. It is a sweeping drama of Roman legions, great crusades, epic battles, toppled empires, heroic saints, and enduring faith. And, there are stormy controversies: Dark Age skullduggery, the Inquistition, the Renaissance popes, the Reformation, the Church's refusal to accept sexual liberation and contemporary allegations like those made in Hitler's Pope and Papal Sin. A brawling, colorful history full of inspiring pageantry and spirited polemic, Triumph will exhilarate, amuse, and infuriate as it extols the glories of Catholic history and the gripping stories of its greatest men and women.
