I do love history from the Middle Ages and I am from Murcia was well, so I cannot thank you enough for doing this video!!!! Long live the Wolf King and your channel! Gracias, amigos. : )

Really appreciate this channel… this probably is the only channel outside of any considered Afrocentric channels that keep its real history without the whitewashing of it and keeping it factual

I would be surprised if El lobo was black as he is impersonated here. Speaking about whitewashing our Afro-centric.

Watching this makes we want to learn more about the Reconquista, and Spanish/Iberian history in general! Thank you for posting this.

Another wonderful episode and another awesome historical figure, thank you.

There’s really nothing new under the sun! I’m surprised this ain’t getting a lot of views.This like a movie name, but a true history story

I love Dr. Lincoln’s interviews because you only have to ask him one question and he gives an entire lecture 😂👍🏽 keep up the good work 👍🏽👍🏽

I missed the first 40 minutes... so I will come back tomorrow. But thanks for doing it live!

Brilliant episode and what a fascinating person the Wolf King was.

Me costó encontrar el tiempo para mirar el video completo, pero valió cada minuto. Como siempre felicitaciones!!

Awesome

I guess all my ancestors are black now, like I get it there’s black moors, but not every Muslim in Spain was sub Saharan African, el rey lobo was an muwallad Iberian

No one said that look at the art in the intro at the 0:21 the Moors there are depicted as white pf lighter skinned. The guy in this video is a Member of HAMAA (Historical African Martial Arts Association), he researches Moorish and other North African Martial arts, HAMAA has North African members too. I'm member we don't claim Moors were all black but there were ofcourse black Moors that's all. HAMAA acknowledges and celebrates the diverse Martial arts of all Africans.

Very interesting would love a biographical movie on this man’s life who wouldn’t see a movie called the Wolf King?

From what I've learned in this video and by the medieval standards I would say so far he appears to me as a hero 100%. He has a cool nickname, he improves the prospects of his territory while successfully resisting the ever encoraching Al Mohads, he is not driven by zealousy but rather what is best for the realm. I don't think you can get much better than that in the middle ages.

Isnt "hero" and "villian" , not just an objective point of view but highly subjective as well? European Christians have benefited and made Heroes of ppl who have committed actual and real Genocide against Nations all over the World on Several Continents. While the victims of such unbelievable atrocities would think they are beyond Villians

@@theonlygoodlookinghabsburg2081 I disagree, while I agree most things are subjective or culturally and religiously relative, I think there are some things that are definitely Human Universals. That's why I think the "Silver Rule" is a better rule to follow (Do not do to others, that which you wouldn't want done to yourself) rather than the "Golden rule" (do to others, which you would want done to you) - we see how that worked with European Colonialism (i.e. Christian and Liberal Tyranny and Genocide). Because lets be Frank, there is nothing subjective about not liking Genocide, having one's family murdered, raped or harmed, being treated unjustly, starvation, etc. Throughout History around the World, these things are all Timelessly, Universally and Objectively seen as Bad, and not a subjective opinion. If you disagree, I challenge you not to drink or eat for 5 days straight

I liked your videos so much your channel is my favourite in KZread your videos are so much knowledgeful and educative your channel is a inspiration for other history KZread channels I get various Knowledge from your videos I am your old supporter and subscriber from 5k so I have a humble request for you can you make a video on Skanderbeg please please

Thanks, Great documentary, from a subdito from Wolf king. The biggest Taifa, with currency and from Gerona to Sevilla. Much black history about him from christians. Congrats.

I would love to see an episode on Yahia ben Rabbi. The history behind him is fascinating. Imagine, a Jew who helped in the independence of the County of Portugal, after it became independent of Leon & Castille; resulting in the new Kingdom of Portugal, & the founding of the Ibn Yahya Family.

As historian an citizen of Murcia i am ASHAMED of our historiography. I had never been talk about him in highschool or Masters in History, when he should be a symbolf of integration of the 3 cultures.

Fun fact, Ibn Mardanis literally means "Son of Martinez" cause he descended from a family of hispanians conversed to islam

Dr Kyle said poop🥺lol

Excuse me but why the SubSaharan guy pretending to be the guy? The guy family was most likely a converted Spanish family or Arabic from the Judham, non of those people looked like that

This was an informative video, however I must say that I was completely and negatively thrown off when the presenter suddenly started repeatedly screaming the word "poop" in English, Spanish, Latin and Arabic.

Oh ho ho ... There were more gray areas then, than many modern Americans assume. A humanlike mish mosh of alliances all over the place 'on both sides' ... Who. Knew?! 😁😂

Why there is a sub-saharan actor to play him?. Have ever seen an Arab or a Berber?. And By the way the word Muwa'ly means his mother is Spanish and his father is an Arab.

Why depicting El Rey Lobo as a sub-saharan African? The Muslims that invaded the Peninsula were Arabs and Maghrebi and there were no black people among the ruling classes as far as we know. In fact, the rulers often took Christian wives and concubines and their offsprings occasionally became heirs, as in the case of Abd al-Rahman III (890-961), the Umayyad Emir and first Caliph of Cordoba, son of a Christian princess and described as having ‘white skin, blue eyes and light color beard that he dyed black to gain respect among the nobles’.

No. Murcia was a kingdom in the SE of the Iberian peninsula, the territory now occupied by Spain and Portugal. Since these two countries did not exist as such yet, we must refer to the region as Iberia or Iberian peninsula.

10:25 Ibn Tumart is very interesting, one of the most successful false prophets ever. He went to the Middle East and studied theology and then came back and led the movement by pretending to be Al Mahdi (muslims believe Jesus and Al Mahdi will both come at the end of times -- not all of them do but yea). He was an important figure in a movement that was in large parts faith related while being a charlatan himself.

What a disgrace and disrespect to the true fact depicting him as a sub saharan African . He was an Iberian muslim convert stop depicting Muslims in Iberia as blacks or semitic Arabs. They were caucadoid north west Africans and iberiran and visgoths muslim converts.

1That's doesn't look like a king it looks like a Pig. 2And Arab are not black. And 3 a Lion will always destroy a Wolf. There is no room for a Wolf in the real wild.

Shalom, the so-called black man Aboriginal to the planet. He's not African nor any other. He is literally the father of us all ,and it is only racism that prevents most of the world from acknowledging this. The so-called black man is Human History. If you know of any other race of men who are responsible for human civilization and progress ,please point that out. I ask this because I am a world class historian and when I go looking for the beginning of literally everything. The only man I find is him. Please read Anacalypsis by G. Higgins. Ruins of empire by volney.. I only cite so-called white people due to the fact of white supremacist thinking about History. To prove my bona fides let state boldly that every civilization in the past was a so-called black civilization. And history tells us that the indoasiatic invaded the black lands and literally stole his history, identities, lands, and achievements. If I lie, prove me wrong or shut the hell up. But on a deeper level, what is it about whiteness that prevents most of you from accepting the truth?
