Rise of the Black Pharaohs

This documentary delves into a pivotal yet often overlooked chapter of ancient history. It reveals how around 800 BC, Kush, a little-known subject state of Egypt, conquered the Egyptians and established its own Pharaohs. This rule lasted for nearly 100 years, challenging the traditional narratives surrounding ancient African civilizations.

Featuring insights from archaeologists Geoff Emberling and Tim Kendall, the film sheds light on the contributions of dark-skinned Africans to ancient history, a topic that has been historically marginalized. The documentary aims to bring the truth about the Black Pharaohs to a wider audience, highlighting their significance and the rich cultural legacy of Kush in the context of ancient Egypt.
