Gabriel Selassie I presents a biblical and theological exegesis of The Royal Parchment Scroll of Black Supremacy (RPS). The RPS was written during the 1920's by Fitz Balintine Pettersburg. The text is primarily of historical significance as a source of Black spiritual thought during the Third Great Awakening (1850-1960). For Rastafari, it is considered a revered spiritual root document along with R.A. Rogers' The Holy Piby. The RPS was the inspiration for early Rastafari preacher Leonard Howell's The Promised Key. Foremost, the RPS argues against the White colonial power structure that dominated world politics at the turn of the 20th century and the rise of the Kingdom of Ethiopia with Black men and women at its center. Today it is studied by Rastafari and Black biblical scholars worldwide.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eW.
