The Nation Speaks Again

I've been trying to write this blog for at least a couple of days now. I guess what I have to say basically amounts to an afterthought. I think the same thing now I have thought about the Nation Of Islam for many years now. I say Nation Of Islam when my focus is Louis Farrakahn. He is the nation. I think after his death the movement will die as well.He is a eloquent, charismatic speaker who set the pace for the likes of a Barack Obama and Jesse Jackson before him. But no one has been groomed in the Nation to take Louis Farakahn"s place. Between high level members converting to Christianity and the posturing that's bound to take place. The Nation can't afford another split.

I like many others have been listening but not paying attention. The ads tell you "keynote address Sunday at the Cook Convention Center to observe the Nation of Islam’s Holy Day of Atonement, which commemorates the 14th anniversary of the Million Man March in Washington." They don't lead you to expect anything new. Periodically Farrakahn shows up and talks about the same thing he mandated the last time he spoke. Since nothing ever materializes. Each speech lays the groundwork for the next one. Even though it's the same thing we've heard before. The Nation speaks again

Nation of Islam is in no way a form of Islam. It is only for the radical and racist black people and main stream Islam does not recognize it as a religion. Their religion purports that they (the black race) are pure and white people were genetically engineered by an evil scientist. Malcolm X was assassinated by the NOI because he wanted to embrace true Islam. Mohammad Ali did.

During his tenure as NOI leader, Farrakhan has set the tone for the organization's hostility toward non-blacks, particularly Jews. He has made many hateful references to the "white devils" and Jewish "bl__ds____rs" who purportedly decimate America's black community from coast to coast. He has referred to Judaism as "a gutter religion."

Splinter groups known as Five Percenters have established themselves as mortal gods within the group to lead the rest of the black people. Where they are being led is another question.

I would question Farrakhan’s wisdom, guidance and purpose in Memphis.
