A new look at the fascinating Jazz Age prophet, Noble Drew.
Looks great @jakedphd/@BeaconPressBks!
The story of Walter Brister’s transformations from the first Black child star on Broadway in 1893 to Noble Drew Ali is staggering! @JakeDphD brings it vividly to life in #ThePrincessAndTheProphet. #BlackHistory #Islam buff.ly/39DwdF8

What if I told you Islam is an African religion and that Africa and Africans impacted Islam from the earliest days of the faith?

Eva Brister, 1st Black woman lion tamer & “Hindoo” magician who performed in Wild West shows, played a vital role in helping Noble Drew Ali found the Moorish Science Temple of America. She's the princess of @JakeDphD's THE PRINCESS AND THE PROPHET. ➡️ buff.ly/2UDiFUq

“Walter Brister [aka Prophet Noble Drew Ali] was incongruously both the forerunner of the blond tap-dancing cherub Shirley Temple and of the militant Black Nationalist icon #MalcolmX.”—@JakeDphD #Islam #BlackHistory buff.ly/39DwdF8

Noble Drew Ali opened the door to #Islam as an avenue for African American nationalism. @JakeDphD traces the winding path of this man's rise to founder of the Moorish Science Temple of America in THE PRINCESS AND THE PROPHET. #BlackHistory buff.ly/3b7NvMp

In THE PRINCESS AND THE PROPHET, @JakeDphD recounts the strange history of The Moorish Science Temple of America, forerunner to the Nation of Islam, and the zeitgeist of the Gilded Age that led to its birth. #Islam #BlackHistory @QantaraEN buff.ly/3b7NvMp

During the Gilded Age, the circus was in the business of exhibiting and commercially exploiting human difference. It allowed Black Americans to not only impersonate Africans but to make good money doing so. @JakeDphD #ThePrincessAndTheProphet buff.ly/2Ugan55

Historians are great detectives. And we just nosy. #BlackHistory @JakeDphD
Thanks! Here's the website for anybody interested: princessandprophet.com It has lots of photos and primary sources so it will make a good teaching tool to demonstrate to students (and anybody) how historians unravel mysteries using census, marriage, & newspaper records. Peace!
