In today's episode of Guided Greatness, we delve into Big Head Scientists by Aswad Nuur Ibn Afriqa, a compelling Black science fiction narrative rooted in the mythos of Yakub, as introduced by Elijah Muhammad in Message to the Blackman in America. This work expands upon the original tale, incorporating elements from Dr. Malachi York's The Holy Tablets and introducing the character Yashmal, envisioned as the redeemer of the Ebonoid Tribe .

The story presents a rich tapestry of speculative fiction, exploring themes of creation, identity, and redemption. It reimagines ancient narratives through a modern lens, offering readers a unique perspective on cultural mythology and its implications for contemporary society.

For those interested in exploring this thought-provoking work, Big Head Scientists is available for purchase as a digital download on Etsy: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1417188604/big-head-scientists-by-aswad-nuur-ibn.
