“...all who are found believing in the devils will be destroyed Be cn
with the devils." fa
Muhammad, Los Angeles
September 17, 1959 |
4. White Man Has Enslaved the Black Man
“The white race went to Africa, robbed her of some of her native
sons and daughters to bring to America to slave for them. These
(the so-called Negroes) were cut completely off from contact with
their native people for 300 years; these blacks the white man has
robbed so completely of his teachings and trainings, that now he
can use one against the other."
Muhammad, Los Angeles Herald-Dispatch, 7
April 7, 1960 .
"In 1555 our mothers and fathers were taken from their homes
by some Christian white men and taken to this country in chains.
Our mothers and fathers would not submit willingly to slavery 80
they were allowed to have children. When the children came
forth they were taken away from their mothers so that they would
not acquire any knowledge of themselves. Our mothers and
fathers were killed by the white man and we, the children, had
no one to tell us who we are. No one to tell us where we came .
from and most of all no one to tell us that our God's name is
Aljiah."
NOI minister, New York, December 18, 1959
“The Negroes have been blind, deaf and dumb to the knowledge of
themselves for the past 400 years. A man cannot have respect
for himself unless he has a knowledge of himself. This is why
our slavemasters kept our history away from us. How could they
use us if we had known that we are the best people on earth?"
NOY minister, New York, September 7° °"79
