Book of Reveal: Hidden Sinsations:The Curse of Ham & Descendants of Sumeria
What Can Humanity's Past Teach Us About Today's Identity Suppression and Systemic Oppression? More than simply a history lesson, this book draws on various fields-from linguistics and etymology to anthropology, sociology, and religious studies-to expose hidden truths and unravel the tangled web of historical events, texts, and stories that contribute to contemporary ethnic cleansing and injustice. With a particular focus on the Bible's Curse of Ham as well as Sumerian and African history, Crawford dives into biblical and ancient civilizations and the enigmatic figures that define them. Drawing on a far-reaching and condensed examination of these theological, historical, and cultural underpinnings, Crawford spotlights the intricate connections that lie beneath the surface of the Abrahamic faiths (Christianity, Islam, and Judaism) and illuminates how these tropes have been used to justify horrific acts of oppression and violence against marginalized populations. Specifically, he demonstrates how this legacy has become ingrained within the foundations of United States documents and institutions, from the Constitution to the racist structures of the slave patrols. Through challenging conventional narratives that have guided society since the dawn of time, Crawford shows how the resistance and rejection of theological justifications for subjugation have always been and remain today of utmost importance.
