Black History Studies presents the Sankofa Sunday Screening of ‘Out of Darkness Heavy is the Crown’ by Amadeuz Christ.
Heavy is the Crown (2022) explores the African origins of the world’s major religions by examining the “original mythological stories” that have served not only as the basis for spiritual systems across the planet, but for many of the foundational concepts of “western civilization” itself. In addition to bringing to life the story of the Ausarian Drama, this first volume of Heavy is the Crown details how the original spiritual traditions of Ancient Kemet, most particularly the “Judgement Scene” found in the Book of the Coming Forth by Day, have laid the foundation for modern-day western religion. Starring Tony Browder, Kaba Kamene, David Banner, and Prof. James Small.
