Rastafari

The Royal Parchment Scroll of Black Supremacy

by Fitz Balintine Pettersburg

A visionary pamphlet by a Jamaican preacher, published in the mid-1920s, that speaks of a King Alpha and Queen Omega and of the coming redemption of Black people. Historians have shown that Leonard Howell's The Promised Key copies long passages from it, making it a direct ancestor of early Rastafari writing.
