Farrakhan On Black Violence Epidemic: I’m Going To Lead The Nation Of Islam Into The Streets (1591 hits)

“When the Nation of Islam was strong, we were in the streets and when we were in the streets, the violence—we had it—but it was not like it is today, so Brother Farrakhan is going to lead the Fruit of Islam into the streets. We are going to help our people,” said Minister Farrakhan. “We have to take our teaching and our example to our people,” said Minister Farrakhan.
“It is a tremendous tragedy and a scourge on our community that after we have suffered so much from so many, for so long, that we would become the worst enemies of self. This is grievous. We are filled with self-hatred and I have to say to us as parents, we took our eyes off the prize,” he added.
Min. Farrakhan said that the FOI would be a powerful influence in the lives of young Black men who feel trapped in the cycle of violence. “The Million Man March” in Washington D.C., organized by Min. Farrakhan, was one of the most successful organized events in U.S. history, drawing more than 400,000 people.
(The NOI claims a much larger figure)
Despite the controversy behind the number of attendees, the march was a huge success because Black folks got together and remained peaceful. The NOI leader has also been influential in the hip hop community, helping to squash a 1990s beef between Ice Cube and Common.

Hello David,

Let us be honest with ourselves and face the facts. Minister Farrakhan by embracing the Arabian's religion it would be fair for me to say that Minister Farrakhan is sucking up to the Arabian people. If Minister Farrakhan was a significant divine leader he would know the permanent solution to Black America's problems. He would then be Black America's first genuine prophet and God would have given him our religion that would unite all Black Americans into one people. But, it was not Farrakhan or anyone else that God anointed. It was Harry Watley that God anointed.

I said all that to say this. Black Americans need to be led into sovereignty. Black Americans need a reasonable and fertile portion of this continent that we could call our very own country with borders that we would have our hands on the wheel of our own destiny. Black Americans need no less than what God did for the Children of Israel in the days of Moses.

Black Americans don't need to be led into the streets. Since Mr. Farrakhan feel the need to lead Black Americans into the streets and that the violence is now worse than when the Million Man March took place then apparently the Million Man March produce nothing.

I have been saying over and over that Islam cannot do anything for Black Americans because we are not Arabian people. Likewise, Judaism and Christianity can not do it anything for Black Americans either because we are not Jewish or European gentile people.

The stalemate is now broken since God anointed me as Black America's first genuine prophet and gave me the religion LIFE that would unite us and prepare us to receive our inheritance from our ancestors’ slave labor on this continent. Black Americans are going to divinely inherit a portion of this continent that we could call our very own country with borders. Am I making sense?

Black Americans need to have our own hands on the wheel of our own destiny. Black Americans do not want to be tied up in the destiny of White Americans.

Harry Watley

NO Harry Minister Farrakhan IS CONCERNED ABOUT THE BLACK RACE
he is talking about the root of the NOI the uplifting of his people not a religion !

If you know the history of the NOI it was always about lifting the black race and today the spirit of the NOI is still raising the the mindset of the black community to unity and stop killing each other !

Harry what have you done for the black race ,,what have you done for you own family ,,
lets forget about religion for a second and lets look at the NOI vs Harry Watley

The Nation of Islam aided in the progress of black people in two ways. The process of deconstruction and then the process of rebuilding. First they deconstructed many of the lies that had been propagated by the white man and the US government against black people for centuries. Then they rebuilt the psychology of the black man so that he no longer perceived himself as being inferior to the white man.

On top of that they built inroads between black Americans and their brothers in Africa and Asia; thus giving them an international perspective and bond that went beyond their history as slaves in America.

HARRY WATLEY hsa been kicked off the NOI ,FACEBOOK AND EVERY BLACK SOCIAL SITE FROM HERE TO JAPAN ,Harry has a history of calling black people ,*****s, dummies, etc and slandering all blacks leaders that doing the job of educating the black race ..

the NOI connect black entrepreneurs to funding
- connect black job seekers to the business that are looking for
them
- mentor-ship program for kids that dont have fathers
- real after school program that teach kids a trade that they make money off not just play basketball or sit on facebook
- free babysitting so single moms and go to school and get better jobs
- scholarships to kids who have to work and go to college.
- help fathers get back into their kids lives. help them find a job.
- sponsor or co-sign reformed ex-cons so business feel better about hiring them
- buying burned out buildings in the hood and converting to them commercial properties !

HARRY WHILE YOUR RUNNING YOU MOUTH ABOUT THE NOI ,,THEY ARE ON THE MOVE AND GETTING THE JOB DONE ,,,AND YOU HARRY WATLEY AINT DOING **** !

WHO IS THE REAL DUMMY ,,YOU DO THE MATH !

I don't why people are attacking Farrakhan over this. We need to help the brother with what ever resources we have.

The man has identified a need and is attempting to address it. At the very least, give the man some damn props for the desire to do such at 79 years of age.
