The Disturbing Alien Pyramid Cult of Georgia | The Case of Niki Lopez & The Nuwaubian Nation | UNSEEN
“There’s a pyramid in the cow pasture”-In 1986, Niki Lopez lives with her family at 717 Bushwick Avenue, home to a secretive group called the Nuwaubian Nation in the heart of Brooklyn–alarmingly, in 1993, the whole community vanishes without a trace. Nearly ten years later, on May 8th, 2002, over 200 federal agents prepare to storm a seemingly “ancient Egyptian” compound in rural Putnam County, Georgia. Inside, nearly 200 families live under the control of Nuwaubian Nation leader, Dwight “Malachi” York. In order to get justice for all the victims before it’s too late, it’s up to Niki to escape, confront her past, and expose the truth behind one of the darkest cases in American history.Niki founded her organization “What’s Your Elephant”, which aims to empower individuals from all walks of life to use the arts to tell their stories: https://whatsyourelephant.org/-Written, directed & edited by Matthew RiceResearched by Bianca Yzabelle TanVoiceover by William AkanaProduced by Alexandra Salois & Salim Sader-SourcesThe Nuwaubian Nation, How I Escaped My Cult: Freeform, 2025United Nuwaubian Nation of Moors, People Magazine Investigates: Cults: MMXVIII Discovery Communications LLC, 2018Nuwaubian Nation, FOX5 Eyewitness News, 1998Waco: The Inside Story, Frontline PBS, 2018Mysteries Behind Closed Doors: The Dr. Malachi Z.
