- Well, here's my 2 cents:
-
- I'm down with the N.O.I. in and muslims with a lot of their teachings. But, I
- don't agree with there treatment of women. I am married to the most beautiful
- and strong Nubian Queen on Earth and I refuse to allow her to be oppressed by
- any organization or myself. The N.O.I. spends too much time attacking the
- African-American mother for the problems with the African-American family.
- Not necessarily in the raising of African males but in the male picking up
- femine traits. These feminine traits are supposedly quick and violent tempers.
- I totally disagree with this! But the Nation does do a lot of positive things
- for the community.
- As far as the 5% 'ers I don't even think Farrakhan is really down with them.
- Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't that Wallace's off-chute of Islam after
- he left the Nation when Farrakhan took over?
-
- Telling the truth is not Anti-semitism. Period! If most of the managers who
- "ganked" African-American entertainers were Jews and you make mention of that
- you're not an Anti-semite your just stating a fact. If you mention that many
- of the large slave traders were Jews you're stating a fact. Now if you refer
- to white people as "devils" then whatever but even Farrakhan doesn`t use that
- terminology anymore. Refering to whites as "devils" is like referring to
- Africans as "Niggers," basically a bigotted insult.
-
- My advice to all of you is to explore all forms of religions....take from each
- what you feel is worthy and develop your own form of beliefs. All religions
- have knowledge in them if you only explore.
-
- I can't understand why the Jews and the Muslims fight so much when they are
- of the same seed, Abraham, maybe they're like competing siblings. Don't know!
-
-
- Go See X!!!!!
-
- We (all of us) have to support this. If this movie were to bomb, yeah right,
- it would set artistic expression back 20 years. We all know it's going to
- be crazy phat though 8)
-
- BTW, I guess this means I'm back from alt.rap limbo now, huh?
-
-
- Peace.
