There really can be no peace without justice. There can be no justice without truth. And there can be no truth, unless someone rises up to tell you the truth.
From Louis Farrakhan
I believe that for the small numbers of Jewish people in the United States, they exercise a tremendous amount of influence on the affairs of government.
As a result of that, America desires a moderate Islam; an Islam that America can control; an Islam that America can give direction to and give orders to its leaders.
Naturally, when one makes progressive steps, there may be some who see it as a betrayal of their goals and interests.
I loved Elijah Muhammad with a love that I can't adequately describe.
But if I thought on it, I would like to be remembered as a brother who loved his people and did everything that I knew to fight for them, the liberation of our people.
A brother who recognizes that we have shortcomings, we, in the struggle, have faults, and that he wanted to reconcile differences.
Overall, the challenge of leadership is both moral and one of developing the characteristics that make us respected by one another.
Black leadership has to recognize that principles more than speech, character more than a claim, is greater in advancing the cause of our liberation than what has transpired thus far.
Because as a youngster I longed to see the Black man free and I longed to see anyone stand up for us.
