And here be comes. He i8 actually ELIJAH POOLE
of Georgia. During World War II, MUHAMMAD was
arrested and charged with sedition and draft
dodging. The Department of Justice finally dropped
the charge that he advocated defeat of the white
democracy and victory for the colored Japanese,
but MUHAMMAD and his followers did serve time in
the federal penitentiary for refusing to register
for the draft.
Here you will hear ELIJAH MUHAMMAD
introduced by Minister MALCOLM X, the MuSlims*
New York leader ard ambassador at large for the
movement. The good news that Minister MALCOLM X
will talk about here is the coming rise of the
black man and the fall of the white man.
MALCOLM: (film clip)
Everyone who is here today realizes that
we are now living in the fulfillment of prophesy.
We have come to hear and to see the greatest and
wisest, the most fearless black man in America

“Good News, the Chariot is coming." Is that right

ruler of the universe. The bad news for the white
man is that his long and wicked reign will shortly
be over. Then ELIJAH MUHAMMAD spoke.
