Presents: Black Pharaohs, Biblical Battles: Meet Taharqa

Description

Hey friend — quick Black History Month nugget: Taharqa was a Kushite pharaoh from Kemet (ancient Egypt) who even appears in the Bible as coming to Jerusalem’s rescue against the Assyrians. Pretty wild and powerful to think about. It’s a great little reminder that African history is central to ancient history, and why remembering these stories still matters. If you’re curious, go peek at the passages in Kings and Isaiah — I promise it’s worth the read.
