NOW MAKE AL QUIT:
Farrakhan tells his followers in Britain to rise against 'Satanic' colonial powers (Matthew Beard, 23 December 2002, Independent uk)
......."What is it about Louis Farrakhan that the Government fears? Great Britain has ruled and dominated the world. It has imposed government, jurisprudence, education and social norms in every country it has conquered ... and been colonial master.
"Why should you fear anything coming from the mouth of a black man from America if you've told your people the truth?''
To whoops of delight and cries of "make it plain, black man'', he then told the audience the mentality of the British slave traders Sir John Hawkins and Willie Lynch was still affecting Britain. He said: "As long as we have to look to Europe as our masters we are still under the tutelage of former colonial masters.'' Mr Farrakhan then compared the enduring influence of colonial powers to a skunk urinating on its victim.
To cries of "Farrakhan! Farrakhan!'' He continued: "That is why you have to wash from the stench of having intercourse with Satan.''
He said the fight for black people had changed and the battle was among themselves after five decades fighting the British Establishment. He said: "Your enemy is right next door to you. Selling crack cocaine to your babies, committing drive-by shootings, turning communities into war zones and turning girls into prostitutes. This is not an accident but absolutely by design.''.......
It's time for Democrats to stand up and be counted on their own troubling tendency to flirt with racism. Though I'm personally supportive of the social works that the Nation of Islam does in the black community, there's little question that much of its ideology and leadership is racist and has been since its founding. Louis Farrakhan was even implicated, both directly and indirectly, in the assassination of Malcom X, after Brother Malcolm returned from Mecca a changed man, one who repudiated the Nation's racism.
Despite this history, the Democrats, particularly folks like the Reverend Jesse Jackson and the Reverend Al Sharpton have maintained cordial relations with Minister Farrakhan and his group (even Bill Clinton praised the Nation's Million Man March and refused to criticize Farrakhan by name). Unless one paternalistically condescends to blacks because of their race, there seems no coherent reason not to hold these Democrat leaders to the same standard as Trent Lott was held. In particular, just as Mr. Lott's comments and past relations with groups like the Council of Conservative Citizens were deemed to make him unworthy of leading the GOP and the US Senate, so must Al Sharpton--who besides his relationship with the Nation has a personal
history of fomenting race riots, leading segregationist boycotts, campaigning on behalf of anti-Semites, and perpetrating race-baiting hoaxes--now be declared unworthy to lead the Democrats, and perhaps the nation, in 2004. We eagerly await the Democrats' morally consistent repudiations of these men and the demands that Rev. Sharpton bow out of the presidential campaign.
