BA - 25-18253 REFERENCE advised that he 1s Of the Moorish Science Terple of Whose Illinois. EL said that the men who oontrol the ganization are Chicago EL 1h w EL. EL continued by saying that the dominant nis organization was to teach members of the. colored race who joined the Temple that their true national- ity was Moorish-American, their true race, the Asiatic race and their type religion, s set forth in the Holy Koran. He explained this further by saying that there are only two true races, the European race which is light skinned and the Asiatic race which is dark skinned. The dark continent as slaves in the l8th Century were actually Moors from Morocco, Africa and were drawn from two tribes, the EL tribe and the Bey tribe. After being sold into captivity, the Moors were separated, the family groups broken up, their tribal names taken away and their captor's names forced upon them. The Moors also lost their religion. and had the Christian religion forced upon them. When a. man joins the Moorish Seience Temple, the Divine Minister. determines whether he came from the EL tribe or the Bey. tribe orizinally and gives him hack his true name, thus becomes -EL since his an- cestor f the EL tribe. His religion which is drawn fromthe Holy Koran, is likewise restored to him.. EL said that in registering for the draft and in. serving with the Armed Forces, some members of the Moorish Science Temple had been "classified" as negroes. This was. not only incorrect since the men so described were actually. Moorish-Americans but also wrong morally since the word. "Negro" means slave and does not describe a man's nationality
