On this Black History Month edition of Rock Newman 2.0, we journey into the profound and often misunderstood legacy of The Moors with renowned scholar Dr. José V. Pimienta Bey, PhD, professor at Berea College, the same institution that counts Black History Month’s founder, Dr. Carter G. Woodson, among its distinguished alumni.
Dr. Pimienta Bey is widely respected for his research on Moorish history, identity, and the African presence in antiquity. His work explores how the Moors shaped global civilization—from science, mathematics, and architecture to law, navigation, and the preservation of classical knowledge during Europe’s Dark Ages. He also examines how Moorish identity has influenced African American cultural and political thought, including the rise of Moorish Science movements in the early 20th century.
In this two‑part interview, we unpack the origins of The Moors, who they were, and how their contributions reverberate across Africa, Europe, and the Americas. We also explore how their story has been distorted, erased, or oversimplified—and why reclaiming this history is essential to understanding their global impact.
This conversation promises to illuminate, challenge, and expand the narrative of world history during a month dedicated to honoring Black excellence.
