This country has a history of unjustly locking up Black men and women who dare critique, criticize, or point out the injustices perpetrated against our communities. While the U.S. government is often quick to point to other countries in its accusations of holding “political prisoners,” and others who have been incarcerated abroad, it fails to look in the mirror at its own injustices.

The Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad understood the wickedness of the U.S. government when it came to unjust imprisonment of Black people and spoke to this in “The Muslim Program,” which is published weekly on the inside back page of The Final Call.

Under “What The Muslims Want,” in Point No. 5 it states in part: “We want freedom for all Believers of Islam now held in federal prisons. We want freedom for all black men and women now under death sentence in innumerable prisons in the North as well as the South;”

and in Point No. 6, it states in part: “We believe that the Federal government should intercede to see that black men and women tried in white courts receive justice in accordance with the laws of the land—or allow us to build a new nation for ourselves, dedicated to justice, freedom and liberty.”

America has held many Black political prisoners who have languished behind bars for decades, have died while still incarcerated or after being released while sickly, in old age, and die soon after. Imam Jamil Al-Amin, Dr. Mutulu Shakur, Kamau Sadiki, and Sundiata Acoli are just a few of the names.

Also on this list is Mumia Abu Jamal. He and his supporters, including the Coalition to Free Mumia, have been fighting for his freedom for decades. This December will mark 45 years of his imprisonment. The former journalist, activist and Black Panther was convicted in 1981 of killing a Philadelphia police officer.

He and his supporters have always proclaimed his innocence. His trial was fraught with inconsistencies and observers argue he did not receive a fair trial. While behind bars, Mumia has suffered many health issues, but his resolve remains, despite these conditions.

He is serving time at Mahanoy Correctional Institution in Pennsylvania, on a life sentence with no chance of parole. His original death sentence was overturned in 2011 after federal courts ruled his original 1982 sentencing instructions were unconstitutional.

Amnesty International and other human rights organizations have appealed for his release or, at the very least, for a new trial. Recently, the UK-based, The Guardian reported that Mumia “is taking his claim that he has been subjected to arbitrary imprisonment for a crime that he did not commit to a new tribunal: the United Nations in Geneva.”

On July 28, according to theguardian.com, “… Abu-Jamal, 72, lodged a petition with the UN’s working group on arbitrary detention, a body within the Human Rights Council. It marks the latest attempt by the internationally renowned prisoner and prolific author of 15 books to seek relief, having exhausted all domestic channels through state and federal courts.”

The cruel and unusual punishment of Mumia’s incarceration speaks volumes about the U.S. “injustice system.” In the 20-page petition to the UN Working Group on Arbitrary Detention, it states:

“Mr. Abu-Jamal’s mandatory sentence of life without parole (LWOP), also known as Death by Incarceration (DBI), is inherently arbitrary because it is indefinite and contains no meaningful periodic review of necessity or reasonableness;

it is also unreasonable as applied to Mr. Abu-Jamal in light of his advanced age, declining health, and the lack of any risk he poses to the public, rendering his continued detention arbitrary under the Working Group’s Category I.

“Mr. Abu-Jamal has been continuously targeted for his political expression and associations, prior to his arrest, at trial, and over the course of his incarceration and appeals, raising questions as to violations of this Working Group’s Category II;

his judicial processes and the decades-long repression of his political speech have also been influenced by discrimination on the basis of race, raising questions as to violations of this Working Group’s Category V.”

The petition was submitted by the Abolitionist Law Center, American Civil Liberties Union, the California Coalition for Women Prisoners, Center for Constitutional Rights and the Release Aging People in Prison Campaign.

The fight to free Mumia is not over, and it is important that we continue to advocate for him and other brothers and sisters who continue sitting in prisons and jails in U.S. correctional facilities for crimes they did not commit.

The Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan has also been one of the strongest voices speaking out on Mumia’s plight and fight.

“My dear brothers and sisters, right now as we speak:  Mumia Abu Jamal is absolutely a prisoner of conscience.  A ‘prisoner,’ that if they get their way, they will sentence my brother, and order his death.  But in a hearing, they wanted to give him a new trial, where his attorneys could produce evidence that might lead to Mumia Abu Jamal’s freedom! 

But those that oppose it are seeking, now, to overturn the lower court ruling, and sentence my brother to death.  Mumia Abu Jamal is a political prisoner,” Minister Farrakhan stated, during part 24 of this 2013 lecture series, “The Time and What Must Be Done.”

“What is a ‘political prisoner?’  According to the American Heritage Dictionary, a ‘political prisoner’ is ‘a person who has been imprisoned for holding or advocating dissenting political views,’” Minister Farrakhan continued.

So, while the U.S. points its fingers at other countries for the treatment or mistreatment of their political prisoners, it is hypocritical for those in governmental authority to ignore what is happening in America’s own backyard.

We must not forget! Free Mumia Abu Jamal and all political prisoners unjustly locked up in the prison capital of the world!

Any critique or condemnation of the abuse, ethnic cleansing or killing of Palestinians in Gaza, the West Bank or other areas was and is quickly met with the familiar and typical charges or accusations of being “anti-Semitic.”

Any mere mention of pulling back or withholding of any portion of the billions of U.S. taxpayer dollars sent each year to Israel for its mistreatment of Palestinians was and is met with criticism.

Even having the nerve to express any sort of sympathy toward the suffering of the Palestinian people and their right to exist in their homeland was and is immediately met with scorn or is dismissed.

Every year, whether under the administration of a Democrat or Republican U.S. president, and regardless of which party holds the majority in the U.S. House of Representatives or Senate, one thing was and is constant—America’s checkbook for Israel remains open.

Israel is also the leading buyer of U.S. weapons. Since 1948, the U.S. has provided over $300 billion in total assistance to Israel. Constantly providing aid and resources to Israel was the one issue that seemed to always garner bipartisan support and agreement on “both sides of the aisle.”

There were very few outspoken voices of dissent among U.S. politicians. Those who dared to speak out, like Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.), a Muslim and Black woman of Somali descent, were immediately attacked, many times by their own party.

However, a shift is seemingly happening.

The Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan has warned America about how the rest of the world is viewing Israel and its actions in the Middle East. During an April 9, 2009, interview on WVON 1690 AM—The Talk of Chicago, with host Cliff Kelley, Minister Farrakhan provided divine insight then.

That is applicable today amid the renewed genocide by Israel of the Palestinians that has been ongoing since October 7, 2023. More than 73,000 people, mostly women and children, have been killed since then.

“America and Israel are supposedly ‘friends,’ but America has refused to say something to her friend. Israel, right now, is seen in the world as a ‘pariah state’; and America has lost influence in the world simply because she has looked the other way when the Israeli Defense Force has committed massacres against the Palestinian people. What happened in Lebanon and Gaza has damaged the image of Israel throughout the world,” the Minister said.

“America has leverage with Israel that she is afraid to use. And this goes to the strength of AIPAC (American Israel Public Affairs Committee), which is comprised of powerful men and women of influence. … Why don’t the members of Congress speak when they know that the things that Israel is doing will hurt them, and hurt America as well?

It is because they are afraid that if they go against what is seemed to be beneficial to Israel, they will lose their position? That means that these people are no longer the representatives of the American people. They are the representatives of the money interests that they fear; that control them,” Minister Farrakhan pointed out.

A recent vote in Congress could signal a change or shift on the horizon. More than half of the Democratic Caucus voted recently in Congress on an amendment introduced by GOP Rep. Thomas Massie of Kentucky that would have cut nearly $3.3 billion in funds for Israel currently allocated in the 2027 defense funding package.

Although the amendment was defeated in a vote of 314-104, it could be a sign that public sentiment toward Israel and its crimes against humanity is getting the attention of politicians who have been elected to represent and serve the will of their constituents. In the vote, 103 Democrats voted to cut aid.

“While the amendment did not pass, it put lawmakers on record on the issue after Israel joined the Trump administration in beginning a war with Iran and as its unpopular war in Gaza approaches the three-year mark in October.

At least two dozen people were killed in Israeli airstrikes in Gaza in the last two days, The Associated Press reported, despite a ceasefire,” according to NBCNews.com after the July 15 vote.

The outlet also noted that according to a Gallup tracking poll from earlier this year, “U.S. public opinion on the long-standing Middle East conflict is shifting.” The poll indicated that “Americans said for the first time that they were more sympathetic to Palestinians (41%) than Israelis (36%).”

While some are optimistic about the number of Congresspersons who voted to stop aid to Israel, the fact is, it still passed, and each passing day, Palestinians are continuing to be slaughtered and the poor in America, whose social safety net programs have been cut, are continuing to see their tax dollars flow out of the country to the Occupier State.

Whether members of Congress will continue pushing to vote to cut the purse strings to Israel remains to be seen. And others are not so sure those voting to cut the aid is because they have true sympathy for the suffering Palestinians and are raising questions about what could be their ultimate motives.

Dr. Stacey Patton, a college professor and author pointed out that after what she called, “decades of treating Israel like and untouchable sacred cow,” she hoped that despite the recent vote, that people “don’t think that these Dems should be getting courage medals.” She said that this is because tens of thousands of Palestinians have been killed.

The outspoken award-winning journalist posted on her Facebook page, “Israel is continuing the killing. Families have been starved, displaced, mutilated, and erased while Democrats kept on voting for the weapons, repeating the talking points, and hiding behind ‘Israel has a right to defend itself.’”

She continued, “They did not lead or act before the horror became politically inconvenient. They waited until the bodies piled so high that supporting the slaughter started costing them votes.”

She attributed the vote by some to the unexpected rise of New York’s mayor, who is young, Muslim and outspoken on Israel and Palestine.

“I also think they’re stunned by Zohran Mamdani. They watched Mamdani openly confront Israel, reject AIPAC’s politics, call the slaughter in Gaza what it is, and still win. Then they watched candidates he backed defeat establishment Democrats tied to the old pro-Israel consensus,” Dr. Patton continued.

“Mamdani is helping set a new trajectory inside the Democratic Party, and Palestine is central to it. These Democrats can see that the electorate, especially younger voters, is moving in a different direction. 

They understand that unconditional support for Israel may now cost them their seats. So this ain’t some moral awakening. What they’re doing is political self-preservation.”

While it may be too early to tell if this shift continues to the point of the U.S. cutting or stopping aid to Israel to continue is reign of terror and genocide, it is clear that many in America and the world are paying attention.

For Black children in America, this is a painful but daily reality. As noted by the Center For Policing Equity (CPE), “In this country, Black children do not get the luxury of having their innocence presumed and protected by the majority-White society in which they live.” The center references a 2014 study it conducted by co-founder and CEO Phillip Atiba Goff, called “The Essence of Innocence.”  

Their study “found that the period of time during which White youth are not expected to be fully responsible for their actions can extend well into their late 20s. By contrast, Black children are often treated as adults by age 13, if not well before, regularly perceived as older, less innocent, and more threatening than their White same-age peers.”

There have been several similar studies conducted over the years that have reached the same or very similar conclusion. As a result of this “adultification” of our Black youth, they are quite often not given the benefit of the doubt nor do they receive sympathy or empathy in the court of public opinion or in America’s so-called justice system.  

In the CPE study it also revealed that Black boys as young as 10 may not be viewed in the same light of childhood innocence as their White peers, but are instead more likely to be mistaken as older, be perceived as guilty and face police violence if accused of a crime.

“Children in most societies are considered to be in a distinct group with characteristics such as innocence and the need for protection. Our research found that Black boys can be seen as responsible for their actions at an age when White boys still benefit from the assumption that children are essentially innocent,” noted Mr. Goff.

“One alarmingly frequent outcome is that, in any interaction they may have with the country’s criminal legal systems, Black children are routinely held to adult standards, the study also reported.

History is full of examples that confirm what these various studies have concluded. And unfortunately for young, Black men and boys in America, this “adultification” has led to deadly results.

George Junius Stinney Jr. was wrongfully executed in 1944 in Columbia, South Carolina, at the age of 14 after being convicted, during an unfair trial, for the murders of two White girls. According to records, George was only 5 feet 1 inch tall and weighed 90–95 pounds.

But it did not matter that this young boy was not guilty. He received no due process and no benefit of the doubt. Young George was innocent, and decades later, his conviction was overturned.

Emmett Till, also innocent and also only 14. But the fact that he was a boy did not stop the racist, White thugs from kidnapping, torturing and killing him in Mississippi in 1955. There was no sympathy. He was not viewed as an innocent youngster.

Mike Brown Jr., just 18 years old when he was confronted, shot and killed by a police officer in Ferguson, Missouri in 2014. Mike Jr. was 6 feet 4 inches tall and weighed approximately 290 pounds, but he was still just a teen.

The officer who confronted and ultimately killed him, tried to use the excuse that because of the young, Black man’s size that he was intimidated and feared for his life. The officer himself was 6 feet 4 inches tall and weighed about 210 pounds.

Tamir Rice was only 12 years old and playing in a park with a toy airsoft “gun” in 2014, when someone called the police saying a “male, probably a juvenile,” had a gun. Police arrived and shot and killed him on site with no hesitation.

How Black youth are treated is not limited to engagements with law enforcement. Fast forward to today. Recently, a South Carolina jury acquitted convenience store owner Chikei Rick Chow of murder in the May 2023 fatal shooting of 14-year-old Cyrus Carmack-Belton.

Chow shot the unarmed Black teenager in the back after chasing him over a suspected water bottle theft after claiming he acted in self-defense. There was reportedly no evidence that Cyrus had taken anything from the store. But, the fact that this young brother, not even old enough to drive, did not matter to someone who saw him not as a child, but as a threat that had to be neutralized.

National Representative of the Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad, the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan, has consistently warned us that what we see happening in the targeting of our Black youth will continue to happen. He has explained that Black youth have been marked for death by the U.S. government and those who are enemies to their rise.

However, Minister Farrakhan and the Two who back him, have guided him with the solution, if we take heed and obey his guidance.

“The Honorable Elijah Muhammad taught us that one of the things that must be done, in this time, is that we must be separated from our former slave masters and their children—because time will prove that they will become more and more disagreeable to live with in peace,”

Minister Farrakhan said in part 39 in his 2013, 58-week lecture series, “The Time and What Must Be Done,” titled, “Can Black and White Live Together in Peace.”

“Unfortunately, race relations will continue to get worse because the government just cannot provide enough food, clothing, shelter and jobs, or justice, for us.  And as we sit around, waiting for somebody else to do this for us—and demanding what we feel are our basic rights as so-called citizens—we are making our former slave masters and their children more angry with us; and thus.

They are becoming more disagreeable to live with in peace. That’s why the Honorable Elijah Muhammad said, ‘We must be separated if we don’t want to continue to suffer great loss,’” Minister Farrakhan stated.

As days go by, what the Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad and the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan have revealed continues to come to pass. We cannot continue to think that our over 400-year enemy is going to do right by us or our children.

Our enemy does not view our children as having a right to exist, thrive and survive. White children can be children, Black children cannot. And as long as we continue to think that integration is the answer, the more our children will suffer.

In the words of Minister Farrakhan, “Separation will prove to be the only answer to the problem between the Black man and woman and the White people of America.”

Since our sojourn in America there have been efforts to dismantle those goals. While establishing relationships with other communities regardless of political, socio-economic, ethnic and religious affiliations is also worthwhile, those relationships must be established on truth, transparency and historical accuracy.

Members of the Jewish community met recently in Miami with several well-known Black leaders and organizers for the National Convening on the Black-Jewish Alliance.

The event was called, according to organizers “the first national gathering of its kind in more than 25 years, aimed at renewing one of the most consequential partnerships in American history.” The meeting, which reportedly drew “more than 100 leaders,” was held May 26-30.

According to reporting by The San Diego Voice & Viewpoint, “Hosted by the Exodus Leadership Forum and Redstone Family Foundation at EAST Hotel Miami, the convening brought together clergy, organizers, artists, philanthropists, educators, civic leaders and cultural figures.

The goals were to strengthen relationships; confront rising antisemitism and racism; and help shape a shared national strategy for Black-Jewish partnership in the years ahead.”

The gathering attracted Blacks, Jews and those who are members of both communities. The Exodus Leadership Forum is a non-profit established by former Obama administration advisor for Green Jobs and current political commentator Van Jones.

The reported goal of the forum is “to revitalize and strengthen the historic partnership between the Black and Jewish communities.” The Redstone Family Foundation is described as “a philanthropic organization”

And is headed by media executive Shari Redstone. Rev. Dr. Benjamin Chavis, longtime civil rights activist and president and CEO of the National Newspaper Publishers Association (the Black Press), also addressed the gathering. There are reportedly plans to make it an annual gathering.

The weekend included several goals and included “facilitated conversations around difficult ‘wedge issues,’” noted sdvoice.info. Coming out of the “historic gathering,” a draft of a National Strategy for Black and Jewish Partnership was crafted and included the following:

• Promoting Awareness and Historical Understanding
• Deepening Relationships and Building Trust
• Shaping a Public Narrative around Black-Jewish Allyship
• Coordinating Efforts Across the Field
• Expanding Partnerships for Collective Advocacy and Action

The above goals could be considered practical. However, before the rest of the points listed can be delved into, the first point, “Promoting Awareness and Historical Understanding,” must be addressed. And, there can be no awareness or understanding that is not based on truth and actual facts.

For decades, the National Representative of the Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad, the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan, has spoken the unadulterated truth about the historic and current relationship between Blacks and Jews.

He has been unfairly lied on, maligned and targeted by members of the Jewish community and many scared-to-death Black people who are unwilling or unable to face the real truth about the history of this “relationship.”

Before any sort of “alliance” can be considered, what the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan has presented and revealed must be part of the dialogue. Otherwise, no meaningful so-called alliance can be considered. And, if there is an alliance, what will it be based on?

Minister Farrakhan has called for a dialogue with members of the Jewish community, but he has been rebuffed due to his unwillingness to speak other than the truth. In his efforts to foster communication and understanding between the two communities, the Nation of Islam Research Department has produced several books, including:

“The Secret Relationship Between Blacks and Jews: The Jewish Role in the Enslavement of the African,” “The Secret Relationship Between Blacks and Jews: How Jews Gained Control of the Black American Economy,” “The Secret Relationship Between Blacks and Jews:

The Leo Frank Case, The Lynching of a Guilty Man,” and “Jews Selling Blacks.” There is also a comprehensive compilation of messages by the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan, titled, “Revealing the Truth & Exposing the Synagogue of Satan.”

Perhaps the dialogue around “difficult wedge” issues about “one of the most consequential partnerships in American history” can and should start with the reading and studying of these materials. Doing so would allow both groups to truly start a sincere dialogue that could lead toward an “alliance.”

Over the years, Minister Farrakhan has written letters to prominent Jewish groups and Black leaders and organizations to foster sincere and truthful dialogue based on understanding. He has sent the books from the N.O.I. Research Group to Black and Jewish leaders, accompanied by letters of divine guidance.

In an open letter to Jewish groups he wrote in 2010, Minister Farrakhan stated: “I have pleaded with you over the years for a sensible, intelligent dialogue.

You have rejected me, and some Rabbis have given me terms for friendship that any self-respecting person could never accept. So with this truth in our hands and yours, and soon in the hands of tens of thousands, I again ask you for a dialogue.”

The same year, Minister Farrakhan also emailed Black leadership, stating in part, “These books that the Historical Research Department of the Nation of Islam has published, “The Secret Relationship Between Blacks and Jews: How Jews Gained Control of the Black American Economy Volume 2”

And “Jews Selling Blacks” are being shared with our people to show us how we were completely undone and how others have benefited from what has happened and continues to happen to us. We cannot deal effectively with our so-called friends as men and women without this vital knowledge.”

He continued, “Whenever the Light of Truth has been shone on them, they reach for you to defend them against the Truth that uncovers the horror that has been done to us. They have always been successful pitting us against each other thus keeping them from facing the Truth of their real relationship with us.

As they call upon you to denounce me as an anti-Semite and, because of the favor you believe you owe them for what they have done to help make life comfortable for you; I am asking you to stand down. I am asking you to read this research and then discuss it with your Jewish friends.

Would you condemn me as an anti-Semite for exposing the research that shows them as being anti-Black? I am asking you to stand down and let them come out to me to defend their record and history of their relationship with us that we compiled from that which was written by their own scholars, historians, and Rabbis.”

For sincere alliances to be created, truth must be present. So, for the National Convening on the Black-Jewish Alliance, seek the guidance and wisdom that the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan has already shared, offered and made available.

The post An ‘alliance’ must be based on truth appeared first on Final Call News.

Because of these truths, he has been falsely called and labeled a hater, anti-Semitic, and an enemy of the American people. But speaking truth and warning of approaching danger, even if it hurts, are the characteristics of a true friend.

American presidents are fond of the word “patriot.” Past presidents have called on Americans to be “patriotic” citizens and respond to their drumbeats for war and invasion of other nations under the false pretenses of America under attack or threats of terrorism.

They call on “patriots” to perform their duties even when the presidents themselves and Congress knowingly lie to justify invading or bombing other nations to overthrow regimes or gain access to mineral wealth.

The lives of many American soldiers have been lost based on these lies. Lies pulled America into the Vietnam War. Lies pulled American soldiers into invading Iraq.

Tens of thousands of innocent civilian lives have been lost on the receiving end of U.S. bombs and American weaponry supplied to Israel in their genocidal attempt to exterminate the people of Palestine, Lebanon and other Muslim nations.

Today, America is involved in a war against Iran, a war that was not declared by the U.S. Congress. The war does, however, complete a larger strategy launched by so-called neoconservatives in the late 1990s and significantly impacted by the administration of President George W. Bush.

That strategy, which accelerated after the 9/11 attacks on America, was to destabilize the Middle East by overthrowing the governments of seven Muslim nations—Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Somalia, Sudan and Iran. 

At this writing, every one of those nations have been destabilized—except Iran.

The Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan has warned every U.S. president, from Ronald Reagan to Donald J. Trump, of the dangers of pulling the lynchpin into Armageddon, the war to end all wars spoken of in scripture.

He has repeated the forecast spoken by the Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad, the Eternal Leader of the Nation of Islam, that once this war starts there would be blood “and plenty of it.” 

Once Armageddon is in its full fury, the Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad told the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan that America would send their soldiers over in the tens of thousands, but they would come back in the fives and tens.

“I have been reading that the plans are already made for America to attack the Islamic Republic of Iran,” Minister Farrakhan said in an April 8, 2007, message at Mosque Maryam, referencing the 2003 bombing of Iraq to remove leader Saddam Hussein. “The United States can’t win a ground war in Iraq, and it can’t win a ground war in Iran,” he continued.

The only way for America to defeat Iran is to use nuclear force under the pretense that America is destroying Iran’s nuclear capabilities, while all the time killing civilians, the Minister forecasted.

Minister Farrakhan warned President Trump in his first term (2016-2020) that his character and thinking would be to the detriment of his administration, a warning manifested more fully in his second administration.

Mr. Trump’s second administration has drawn the distrust of America’s closest ally, Canada, by suggesting that the U.S. could annex its northern neighbor.

He has caused distrust among allied European nations by unilaterally applying exorbitant tariffs on their exports, called countries nasty names, ridiculed friendly leaders and threatened to withdraw from NATO.

An April Alliance of Democracies Foundation survey confirmed Minister Farrakhan’s warning, showing that “[G]lobal perceptions of the U.S. have deteriorated for a second consecutive year and are now worse than views of Russia.”

The Denmark-based foundation said the U.S. was also most frequently named in response to which country posed the greatest threat to ​the world, after Russia and Israel, Reuters reported.

Minister Farrakhan has warned that Mr. Trump’s plan for American dominance through fear is what is pushing smaller nations to want weapons of mass destruction. Mr. Trump invaded Venezuela and kidnapped its president, Nicolas Maduro and his wife, while also taking control of that nation’s oil exports and revenues.

Even as he pursues war in Iran, Mr. Trump has announced Cuba as his next target—announcing indictments on former Cuban President Raul Castro, increased the military presence in the Gulf, placed economic sanctions and an oil embargo that have caused near 24-hour power outages and Cuban suffering.

In the book “Closing The Gap” by Brother Jabril Muhammad, Minister Farrakhan said in answer to a question, that obtaining a nuclear weapon is a deterrent to American aggression.

“To make Syria afraid; to make Iran afraid; to make North Korea afraid; to make any little, small nation afraid is to say to them as the scripture says, ‘Wake up the mighty men of war.  And let them turn their plow shares and their pruning hooks into spears and swords’ because this is a time of global war.

“Their efforts for peace may be noble, but they will not come to pass until war has decimated the warmongers. And many, many, many, many millions of human lives will be lost,” he said.

To Muslim leaders in the Middle East, Minister Farrakhan warned in a Nov. 8, 2018, news conference in Tehran, Iran, that President Trump is  “making toxic the divisions between Sunni and Shia” Muslims and “openly saying they should reject their brother Iran.” He said new sanctions on Iran is the predicate for a new war.

“I am begging our president and the government that support him to be very, very careful because if  the trigger of war in the Middle East is pulled by you using your surrogates at the insistence of Israel, then the war will trigger another kind of war that would bring China, Russia, all of the nations into a war,” Minister Farrakhan said.

“It bothers me to say this to you, Mr. President, but the war will end America as we know it.  I am a warner to you.  I am a friend to America, not an enemy.  But if you do not heed the warning and correct your path, death will come.” —James G. Muhammad, Contributing Editor

When it comes to the U.S. government, the White power structure in this country and White people and their treatment of and toward Black people, what Ms. Angelou said has been proven true time and time again.

They have shown us who and what they are.  So, we must stop expecting something different. There is a plethora of historic and current examples of this; too many to keep track. But we only must look over the past few days to see even more examples.

The continued attack and dismantling of Black studies curricula on all levels of education is a deliberate strategy to attempt to erase the tremendous contributions our people have made and continue to make not only to America, but the world. 

They hate our very shadow, so what better strategy than to target academic institutions? A recent article published on The Nation, titled “Dismantling Black Studies,” examined this deliberate tactic.

The article listed several institutions of higher education that have either totally dismantled or watered down Black or African Studies departments, curricula or programs and also legislation that have targeted such programs. 

According to the article, Florida’s Senate Bill 266  stripped Black-studies courses of their general-education status and cut the research funding that faculty depend on and Kentucky’s House Bill 4  suspended the University of Louisville’s Pan-African Studies doctoral program and eliminated all graduate assistantships. 

“Black studies is where the attack has been the most deliberate, the most structural, and the most revealing of what is at stake.  In recent months, university leaders have dismantled departments and deliberately narrowed the pipeline producing the next generation of Black scholars. What is happening is not just a series of isolated bureaucratic decisions; it is a coordinated assault,” the article states.

This is just one example. Then there are deliberate targeting and attack on anything Black folks attempt to do “for us by us.”  A White dermatologist along with what is being described as a “conservative advocacy group” had the nerve to file a federal lawsuit against the online platform Find A Black Doctor. 

The lawsuit alleges racial discrimination because the directory limits its physician listings to Black doctors and dentists.  Statics have proven that Black patients received better care from Black healthcare professionals.  It is highly doubtful this White dermatologist has the desire to truly care for and treat Black patients.

White folks, who still control the wealth and levers of power in politics, business, academia and are dusting off  the tired, non-existent “reverse racism/reverse discrimination” card as a last resort to hold onto a power that they see they are losing their grip on. 

And, just like in the past, they are using the tools at their disposal in various levels of government to do their bidding to on to power. 

The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) has been actively soliciting White men to file workplace discrimination charges, if someone Black or non-White gets a position that in their arrogance, they think rightfully belongs to them.

As Allah (God) is breaking America and the Caucasian’s grip on power, their tactics become more desperate, and they are becoming more emboldened. 

As each day goes by, our open enemy continues to show us that they are disagreeable to live with in peace. The Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad told His National Representative.

The Honorable Minister Farrakhan, that when the children of Israel rebelled against Moses and Aaron and did not want to leave their slavemaster to build an independent nation of their own under the guidance of Allah (God) that He chastised them with fiery serpents and cockatrices. 

“The Honorable Elijah Muhammad asked me one day, ‘do you know what it means, fiery serpents?’ I said, ‘no sir.’  He said, ‘It means angry White people,’” Minister Farrakhan said during a May 9, 2017, interview on WVON 1690AM Talk of Chicago radio with host Cliff Kelley, during President Donald Trump’s first term in office.

“White people are getting more and more angry every day, and as I said on this same wonderful program before, Mr. Trump was elected that the mask of civility—like an onion peeling—is being peeled off.  Now naked hatred, not only in word but in deed, is being openly shown to us,” Minister Farrakhan said.

This naked hatred is increasing and like they always have, angry Whites are using the power of the U.S. government as a tool in their hatred.

Minister Farrakhan in answering a question from The Final Call, stated the following about the U.S. government during his Holy Day of Atonement Message in 2003: “this government of the United States is our worst enemy.”

“As long as the Children of Israel saw Pharaoh as a friend, they could not see Moses and Jehovah as their true friend. As they came into consciousness—by the wicked things that Pharaoh continued to do against them—that Pharaoh was indeed their enemy, then Moses and Jehovah’s call to them to separate from Pharaoh to build a nation of their own became a reality.

“As long as we see America and her wealth as something that we want, we will never leave Pharaoh. As God’s hand touched the wealth of Pharaoh, it is now touching the wealth of America. 

As the Black man and woman become more awakened to the wicked machinations of government, the aim is the same today: We should never be free of their influence and power.

“As Abraham Lincoln said, if there is to be a superior position, he would rather that superior position be assigned to the White race. That superior position must be protected by those who believe in White supremacy and they will do everything in their power to make sure that that position will always be throughout the generations,” Minister Farrakhan said.

He added, “So, our path is clear: We refuse to be inferior. We want to be exactly what Allah (God) has desired for us to be and we can’t be that in their house.  We either have to take over their house or go and build a house of our own.”

Like Minister Farrakhan said, our path is clear. The U.S. government and White folks have shown us who and what they are. The question for us is: Do we finally believe them?

The Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan, National Representative of the Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad, has referenced this illustration in several of his messages in describing what he calls “America’s errant foreign policy.”

In His book “Message to the Blackman in America,” on page 122, the Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad referenced scripture in describing the serpent.

“That old serpent, called the devil and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world (Rev. 12:19) is a person or persons whose characteristics are like that of a serpent (snake). Serpents or snakes of the grafted type cannot be trusted, for they will strike you when you are not expecting a strike.”

It was recently announced by the Trump administration that the U.S. and Nigeria reportedly carried out what is being called a “joint mission,” which targeted and killed Abu-Bilal al-Minuki, reportedly a key figure in the hierarchy of ISIL (Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant), also referred to as IS (Islamic State).

Nigerian President Bola Tinubu, in a statement, acknowledged the joint operation, which also reportedly killed several of al-Minuki’s “lieutenants.”

We have seen this scenario play out before in terms of America inserting itself into the affairs of sovereign countries, including those in Africa, and in the Arab and Muslim world, some of whom have opened themselves up to America.

According to several news sources, the U.S. currently has about 29 military bases across approximately 15 countries in Africa, and in the Middle East, the number is reportedly close to two dozen.

While the U.S. does not yet have a base in Nigeria, AFRICOM (U.S. Africa Command) is present, further embedding the U.S. on the continent and, one might argue, it is causing more problems.

“In the past 15 years, the U.S. government has quietly expanded its military footprint across the African continent, engaging in ‘special operations’ with African troops in the name of security. Since the 2007 establishment of the Africa Command (AFRICOM).

The defense department’s regional combatant command for Africa, the U.S. has adopted a military-first approach to securing its interests on the continent,” wrote Samar al-Bulushi in a 2023 article, “What Is AFRICOM? How the U.S. Military is Militarizing and Destabilizing Africa.”

“This has had disastrous effects. Whether it’s the seemingly endless (undeclared) war against the militant group Al-Shabaab in Somalia or the wave of coups (in many cases led by U.S.-trained officers), AFRICOM has contributed to the very instability it claims to address,” al-Bulushi noted.

Prior to this recent military operation in Nigeria, in November of 2025, President Donald Trump threatened to put boots on the ground in Nigeria under the guise of reportedly “protecting Christians” from being “persecuted” by Muslims.

Nigeria is a very diverse country and Africa’s most populous nation, with a population of 237.5 million. Nigeria is home to hundreds of tribes and people who speak multiple dialects and languages. Muslims and Christians reside there. It is also a mineral-rich country.

Despite the U.S. often using “democracy” and “fighting terrorism” as justification for engaging in military operations abroad, the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan has exposed the true motive, which is to cause brother to rise up against brother, thereby opening the door for America to take advantage and gain control of the wealth and resources that rightfully belong to that country.

In Part 34 of his 2013, 58- week lecture series “The Time and What Must Be Done,” Minister Farrakhan said, “America doesn’t care about ‘democracy’ if that democracy brings into power people that she does not want, that will not be amenable to her foreign-policy objectives and her national interest.

As a result of such planning, based on war mongering, the CIA (Central Intelligence Agency), the NSA (National Security Agency) and the government of the United States of America would engage, covertly, in creating and exploiting differences that naturally exist in all nations.

And put money behind these differences that would one day explode into possible civil war, fratricidal conflict, death and destruction—based on the lies of the mischief making of this Mischief Maker and Universal Blood Shedder.”

In his message, though, Minister Farrakhan was speaking at the time about Syria, a Muslim nation in the Middle East; America’s goals and objectives then are the same today. It enacts its modus operandi (method of operation) without hesitation and it has for decades.

“Every time there has been a so-called democratic election in the Muslim world, that brought so-called Islamists into political power, America worked to destroy that democratically elected government.

Which shows that America is not interested in a democratically elected government that produces a government that she is not in control of, and cannot have free access to the natural resources of that nation,” Minister Farrakhan added.

Additionally, in part 12 of that same lecture series, Minister Farrakhan warned America, citing the Holy Qur’an, that every nation has a fixed and limited term. He quotes Surah (Chapter 7), Ayat (Verse) 34, which states: “And every nation has a term; so when its term comes, they cannot remain behind the least while, nor can they precede (it).”

Like his teacher, the Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad, Minister Farrakhan has consistently and constantly warned that Allah (God) will judge and ultimately punish America for its misdeeds committed “at home” but also “abroad.”

“It is our Sacred Duty to warn America that the ‘term’—a fixed term—of her power to exercise authority and rule not only over her own citizens, but over the peoples of the Earth:  That term is fast coming to an end.”

The U.S. always presents itself as a benevolent and helpful ally and friend to the other nations of the world when it comes to fighting so-called terrorism or extremism. But as history has shown time and time again, America is the biggest terrorist of them all. There is an old saying: “Beware of a wolf in sheep’s clothing.”

The U.S. has functioned as a snake or serpent in its dealings, always swooping in under the guise of playing the hero for a chaotic situation it helped foster.

For Nigeria and other nations of the Earth, when America comes in extending its hand and offering its “support,” “friendship,” and “help,” be very careful, but more importantly, as the Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad forewarned, serpents cannot be trusted, and “Beware of false promises.”

The post Beware of false friendships and false promises appeared first on Final Call News.

The Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad, Eternal Leader of the Nation of Islam, causes and teaches us to understand that the mental, moral and even physical deterioration of our health is a result of the miseducation and mistreatment of the Black man and woman by the slave master and his children.

Psychological sciences testify to the effect that historical traumas have on the attitudes and, therefore, actions of our people. A study of epigenetics rewards our research.

Hatred of self was instilled in our ancestors for centuries as they suffered horrible abuse. Babies were separated from their parents and raised by our enemies;

Fear of the slave master was seared into the core of our being as we watched the rebellious ones among us tortured and brutally killed before our eyes. This created negative inbred attitudes and behaviors that we exhibit today.

That is a reason the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan pronounced the National Center—Mosque Maryam and Muhammad University of Islam—a center for retraining and re-education for the Black man and woman.

Some of us have been able to reach heights of success unimaginable by our ancestors. Nevertheless, as the Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad teaches, no single individual can rise above the condition of his or her people.

If your people are viewed as not worthy of respect, then the individual’s success and status in life isn’t really what it appears to be. Given the right circumstances, that individual would be told where his or her place is.

The Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad worked tirelessly for more than 40 years to liberate the Black man and woman physically and mentally from the chains of oppression of White society. He called for separation: “

Since we cannot get along with them [Whites] in peace and equality, after giving them 400 years of our sweat and blood and receiving in return some of the worst treatment human beings have ever experienced.

We believe our contributions to this land and the suffering forced upon us by White America, justifies our demand for complete separation in a state or territory of our own.”

He tries to reach our minds through His publications “Message to the Blackman in America,” “Our Saviour Has Arrived,” “The Fall of America,” “How to Eat to Live,” Books 1 & 2, and other writings.

He labeled White people as “the devil” and “the enemy.” Many of us thought he was name-calling, when, in fact, He was and is describing the nature and actions of Whites, past and present, toward not only Black people in the U.S., but around the world.

Blacks in Africa, South America, the Caribbean, and Asia cry out for the foot of colonialism to be lifted from their necks. Search every continent and you will find that, generally, Whites are in power or the lighter skin is placed higher in society than the darker. It’s a sickness.

America and Europe salivate over the mineral riches of Africa; the same ones whose boot has been on the necks of African rulers under colonialism and the slave trade. Today, they take a kinder, gentler approach to gain access to mineral wealth unless they are forced to threaten those nations with military options—examples are Venezuela and Cuba.

Why are Black leaders who seek independence for their people castigated and even killed for their ideas for liberation? The list includes Patrice Lumumba, Thomas Sankara, Kwame Nkrumah, Amilcar Cabral … even the great Nelson Mandela of South Africa was once labeled a “terrorist.”

Today’s threat to the White power structures in Africa comes from leaders like Ibrahim Traoré of Burkina Faso and others in the region who have kicked France out and are trying to empower the people based on terms of independence.

The enemy is very scientific. He knows he can’t assassinate or imprison a popular leader without first maligning their character and turning the people against the leader with lies.

The people backed the historical Jesus until his enemies branded him a threat despite the miracles he performed. He was crucified with criminals. The enemy’s pattern has not changed.

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Malcolm X, Harriett Tubman and others who fought for Black freedom have U.S. postage stamps with their faces on them. They are dead now and are no longer a threat to the power structure, except through their words.

But their images and ideas are controlled by a media that perpetuates the softer stance these leaders represented rather than their liberation messages.

Martin’s image today is as a “dreamer” rather than an opponent of the war in Vietnam and his fight for economic justice that he expressed toward the end of his life. He would be in opposition to the genocide in Palestine and the war with Iran if he were alive today.

Malcolm’s message from the Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad revolutionized the Black nationalist and later the Pan-African movements before his death. The U.S. government is at the root of their assassinations.

The Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad and Minister Farrakhan continue to preach that our unity is more powerful than an atomic or hydrogen bomb. That’s the kind of power that keeps an enemy at bay.

One reason the U.S. and Israel are at war with Iran is that they do not want Iran to have nuclear weapons, even though they both have them, and the U.S. is the only nation that has used an atomic weapon on a population.

The enemy does not want to see Black people unified because our unity is just that powerful!

Despite our over 400-year sojourn in America, our civil rights brothers and sisters’ tireless pursuit of integration into what the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. described as “a burning house” is increasingly futile with each passing day.

The U.S. economy is on the decline, at least for most of the population who are not wealthy, which includes the majority of Blacks, Latinos, and Indigenous populations.

The recent job numbers released in March by the U.S. government show that the unemployment rate for Black people is 7.1%. Much has been written about the reported 300,000 Black women who have lost jobs, many because of the DEI dismantling.

According to the Economic Policy Institute, “The Trump administration’s attacks on federal workers and DEI reveal its lack of concern for closing labor market disparities;

It is not surprising that the aggregate increase in unemployment masks large differences in impact across racial groups. Black workers saw the worst of the labor market slowdown through 2025, with college-educated Black women particularly impacted by job losses.”

The Center on Budget and Policy Priorities noted, in an article from August 2025, that there is a “triple threat to Black households’ economic well-being” being implemented by the current administration, including:

The elimination of food assistance and health benefits, the cutting of the federal workforce, and the current tariffs, which are leading to rising prices among other fallout.

“Taken together, this agenda hurts low- and moderate-income people, families, and communities of all races and Black people, families, and communities especially,” noted the center on its website, cbpp.org.

However, all that we see unfolding right before our eyes was prophesied and taught for decades by the Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad. Like ancient empires such as Babylon and Rome, America’s time is at hand, so teaches the Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad.

In His book, “The Fall of America,” in the chapter, “The Troubled America: No Peace,” the Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad writes in part, “America, in trying to hold her place as the greatest power among nations of earth, is one of the most troubled countries on earth today.”

Today, others are also seeing the writing on the wall.

“America is approaching its 250th birthday. That is no small achievement. Empires rarely last that long. It has been a remarkable run. But longevity doesn’t guarantee vitality.

What once powered American dominance—productive labor, demographic confidence, institutional trust, and cultural gravity—is steadily eroding,” wrote John Mac Ghlionn in an opinion piece published January 2, on The Hill, titled, “The American empire has entered its final act.”

A recent poll conducted by the University of Massachusetts Amherst revealed that fewer than one-quarter of Americans view the U.S. economy in a positive light and the nation heading in the right direction.

The poll surveyed 1,000 people of various backgrounds and was conducted in March. Sixty-five percent of those surveyed also said the country “is on the wrong track” which was an increase from 59% from July 2025.

There is an old adage that says, “When America gets or catches a cold, Black people get or catch the flu or pneumonia.” However, we have a Supreme Physician who has given us a Divine, spiritual medicine and teaching to prepare us in the midst of the fall and unraveling of a great nation.

The Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad not only warned us from Almighty God (Allah), Who Came in the Person of Master Fard Muhammad, of what was to come, but He also gave us the blueprint for what Black people must do to survive the fall.

Read, digest and study the wisdom outlined in the books of the Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad, including “Message to the Blackman in America,” “The Fall of America,” and “Our Saviour Has Arrived.”

If we view it properly, what is unfolding can be seen as a blessing. The Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad and his National Representative, the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan, have taught us of the “old world going out and a new world coming in.”

As the wicked world of the Caucasian continues to crumble and erode, the opposition to our success and rise will increase. However, the plans of our 400-year-old enemy will fail, as taught by the Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad and the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan.

In a message delivered on April 30, 2016, titled “Let Us Make Man: Uplifting Our Black and Hispanic Young Men,” Minister Farrakhan posed the question of why White people are in such opposition to the upliftment, resurrection and success of the Original Man.

“Why are they opposed to our rise?  Because the rise of the Black man means the fall of the White man—so he must keep you down in order for him to stay up,” he said. Minister Farrakhan continued, stating, “So, God has come to break that all the way up; no matter what kind of power he has, the White Man will never be able to stop our rise.”

The fall of America, as taught by the Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad, is upon us. However, we do not have to go down with it. Hold fast to the rope of Allah (God) and take heed to the Divine Wisdom and Teachings of the Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad and the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan, for these Divine Men hold the keys to our salvation. We would all be wise to pay attention, study and work for the rise of our people.

Our ancestors were jammed into the holds of ships and taken thousands of miles to the Caribbean, and North, Central, and South America, where generations of Black people were forced to do the bidding of White slave masters and build their “heaven on earth.”

The residual scars of this crime against humanity are still being felt by Black people today, regardless of where we live. What was done to our people is unimaginable, but it happened. No amount of trying to gloss over, erase or downplay what Black people have suffered will make us forget. We should never forget.

The Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad, Eternal Leader of the Nation of Islam, explained that the condition of Black people in America is a direct result of what we have suffered at the hands of the White slave master and their children.

“Our condition and lack of love for ourselves must be attributed to the slave-master. He has been our teacher until the coming of Almighty God, Allah. The slave-master has robbed my people of their God, religion, name, language and culture,” He writes on page 37 of “Message To The Blackman in America.”

He continues, “The worst kind of crime has been committed against us, for we were robbed of our desire to even want to think and do for ourselves.

We are often pictured by the slave-master as a lazy and trifling people who are without thoughts of advancement. I say, this is a condition which the slave-master very cleverly wanted and created within and among the so-called Negroes.”

The Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan, National Representative of the Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad, in speaking to a group of Black youth in 2015 in a message titled, “Love Yourself:

The Original People of The Earth,” told them, “… during the Transatlantic Slave Trade, a crime against humanity was committed, and our ancestors were brought not to America as immigrants seeking a better life, we came in the holds of ships as slaves; and for 310 years we were considered chattel slaves.

‘Chattel,’ meaning that as you owned horses or dogs or pigs, and you branded them so that others may know that you own them, the slave master named us after our owners.”

The United States and other European countries waxed rich off the blood, sweat and tears of enslaved Black people. Today, several corporations and wealthy White families owe their generational wealth to the backbreaking work Black bodies endured. Black people built the “wall” that is now named for Wall Street in New York.

An excerpt from “Shocking List of 10 Companies that Profited from the Slave Trade,” posted on Your Black World, noted, “It is no secret that slavery rests at the foundation of American capitalism and is often synonymous with the sugar, tobacco, and/or cotton plantations that fueled the Southern economy.

What many may not know is that slavery also rests at the foundation of many notable corporations. From New York Life to Bank of America, several companies have benefited from slavery.”

So, while the UN resolution acknowledged this historic wrong by the countries that voted “yes,” what will come of it remains to be seen. In the March 25 vote, 123 countries voted for the resolution and 52 countries abstained.

The 52 that abstained included the UK and all European Union member states. And it should come as no surprise that the U.S., Israel, and Argentina were the three countries that voted against the resolution.

The UN resolution was spearheaded by Ghana and other African Union member states, which is the largest regional bloc within the UN. Speaking at an event the day before the vote, Ghana’s President John Dramani Mahama said that “The entire Transatlantic Slave Trade was designed to deny African people their humanity.”

He also stated, “I speak these words today not only for Ghana, but also in solidarity with the rest of Africa, the Caribbean, Latin America, the wider Diaspora and, indeed, all people of good conscience throughout the world. This resolution is a pathway to healing and reparative justice. This resolution is a safeguard against forgetting.”

There have been many discussions, recommendations and suggestions about what this “repair” or “reparations” should be. There have been several of our people in America who love us and who have worked tirelessly in the reparations movement.

The late “Queen Mother” Audley Moore, Dr. Conrad Worrill, Representative John Conyers of Michigan and groups like N’COBRA (National Coalition of Blacks for Reparations in America), were proponents of reparations. Today, others have picked up that mantle.

The UN vote, while important, is non-binding. Analysts say the vote sends an “important message.” However, will it be more symbolism without substance?

The fact is, Black people, whether descendants of enslaved people in the U.S., Brazil, Haiti, Jamaica, or other countries, are owed true freedom, justice, and equality. Minister Farrakhan has taught that all who had a role in the enslavement of our people must be held accountable. But he has explained the role of “reparations,” and what it truly means.

“In order to gain reparations, one must appeal to a government that may or may not listen. But the Honorable Elijah Muhammad taught us that, when we lie down, justice lies down with us, and when we get up, justice gets up with us.

Justice is not concerned with the World Court or the International Criminal Court or the local judge or the local court,” Minister Farrakhan said in his Saviours’ Day 2004 message, “Reparations: What does America and Europe Owe? What does Allah (God) Promise?”

“The justice with which God has set the balance in the universe caused Jesus to say: ‘He who lives by the sword will die by the sword.’ ‘He who has led into captivity will go into captivity.’

‘A man shall reap what he sows.’ The Prophet Obadiah says, ‘As thou has done, so shall it be done unto you.’ These laws of justice have nothing to do with man’s courts; they have everything to do with the highest Court, the Universal Court of the Divine Supreme Being,” he said.

Regardless of UN resolutions, Allah (God) is our Patron and is with us and we must be with Him. The historic suffering of our people was and is not in vain.

Minister Farrakhan said it best, in another message, “A Case for Reparations: Add it Up!” delivered on April 28, 1990.

“The way God looks at this thing, the present generation of Whites, they didn’t do this to us. The present generation of Whites are innocent of what their grandfathers did, but they are in a privileged position because of what their fathers did; and we’re in a hell of a condition because of what their fathers did.

So, if you, the present generation of Whites, want to escape what is justly due, then they’ve got to do the right thing. They’ve got to do justice by the Black man.”

Allah (God) will see to it.
