Farrakhan: The Divine Value of the Female
Farrakhan: The Divine Value of the Female
Time for women to take divine place as mothers of new civilization
CHICAGO (FinalCall.com) - The enemy's aim has been to devalue the woman transforming her into a sexual plaything instead of treating her with the reverence and honor she deserves as a serious co-creator with God, said The Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan in an important and sobering message delivered at Mosque Maryam, the international headquarters of the Nation of Islam.“No matter what your race, color or ethnicity, you have never looked at yourself as a part of The Divine. That will change today,” Min. Farrakhan told the packed auditorium and those viewing live Sept. 11 via internet webcast.Minister Farrakhan's special message wrapped up three days of spiritual and physical renewal for young women of the Nation of Islam as Muslim women and girls from all across the United States and as far away as Montreal, Canada attended the three-day 2011 National Vanguard Retreat at the beautiful Indian Lakes Resort in Bloomingdale, Illinois and included a meeting and visit at the Minister's farm in Michigan.
Uniformed sisters of the MGT & GCC Vanguard—a specialized unit composed of Muslim females age 16-35—filled the entire sanctuary of Mosque Maryam and the lower level prayer room to hear guidance from the Minister on the divine nature and value of women.“We live in the creation of God and whatever God creates is of himself, and if God is the author and source of divinity, how could He create a universe and that universe not be divine? You can't improve on anything that he created. He created it perfect,” said Min. Farrakhan.Human beings are the only things created after God's image and likeness, said the Minister even though some Muslim scholars do not want to accept the fact that humans can reflect God's qualities. Minister Farrakhan dispatched their position with two questions.
“How could you be in his image and after his likeness and not have his divine nature? Why are you justified in wearing the attributes of God if you cannot reflect those attributes that are divine?” he asked.
Speaking to the few men in the sanctuary and those who filled the gymnasium of Muhammad University of Islam adjacent to the mosque, Minister Farrakhan said aspects of this special message were for men; however the focus on the day would be on women.
“God cannot make us the head if the woman is not lifted. If God does not lift the woman, the man will never come up, so if God is going to make a new world and a better world, He is going to make that world coming through a woman,” said Min. Farrakhan.
Prophecy fulfilledIn brief opening remarks prior to the Minister's arrival, Mother Tynnetta Muhammad, world traveler, researcher and wife of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad, added to the special significance of the three-day retreat by telling the audience about “Table Talks” discovered by his great-grandson, Sultan Rahman Muhammad, in which Mr. Muhammad—talking to a gathering of Nation of Islam Muslim Girls Training and General Civilization Class officials—saw women coming together in the future “in large numbers to form a convention of women, thousands and thousands together.”She said the Honorable Elijah Muhammad envisioned women in all fields of endeavor representing the highest levels of the divine word of God. The date of this table talk conversation was Sept. 11, 1973. Thirty-eight years later, Minister Farrakhan, as he has so many times before, walked directly into the fulfillment of his teacher's desires.
Mother Tynnetta Muhammad said her husband looked to leadership to take on the “great responsibility of raising our young women as the leaders of a New World Order walking beside our men that the Honorable Elijah Muhammad said that he could make us so beautiful and so well trained that he could send us out to the world in committees, with that training and the world's attention would be on our women. Whether it was in China—these are his words from those table talks—or any part of the world and the people would come and say ‘who is this?' and want to know where did we come from and they would recognize us by our expression of love, joy, etiquette, cleanliness, good manners, having the knowledge like a bright star in our heads,” said Mother Tynnetta Muhammad. “As you are so beautiful in outward appearance, let us shine up the inside of the house. Let our hearts be as beautiful—or more beautiful—than our outside appearance, and walk with our men into heavenly paradise, the light of the Hereafter.”
A celestial sign follows a strong messageMinister Farrakhan reflected on the stern tone of the message he delivered just one day earlier on Sept. 10 to the women who visited his farm in Michigan for a special Saturday meeting as part of their retreat. The Minister, like a strong and caring leader and father, delivered loving yet firm words that drew cheers and applause from the audience that packed a huge tent set up for the day's activities. (See photos pages 16 and 17.) More acknowledgment of the Minister's divine message came later that evening as dozens of aircraft (commonly called UFOs) appeared in the sky above his farm in New Buffalo, Mich., as a sign after the retreat participants had left the property.“It was like an exclamation point to my talk to you, and it was as though God was smiling on you for accepting the role of a woman and accepting righteousness as your way of life. There will never be a righteous kingdom until and unless there is a righteous woman. Where there are no decent women, there are no decent men for the woman—the Honorable Elijah Muhammad teaches—the Black woman in particular is the mother of civilization,” he said to the audience at Mosque Maryam.Scriptural foundationThe Minister pointed out that the Holy Qur'an has an entire chapter dedicated to women. Chapter 4 is titled, “Al-Nisa: The Women.” Additionally, Chapter 19 is named after the mother of Jesus—Maryam, which is the Arabic form of Mary. Mary according to the Holy Qur'an was referred to as “the best of women” and the angels were in dispute as to who would have charge of her. She is an example for all women, he said. Despite the critics who claim Islam oppresses women, there is nothing equivalent in the Holy Bible, though there are great women mentioned in the Bible.
“She (Mary) was not an unchaste woman even though the Jews charged her with fornication and even referred to her offspring as an illegitimate child,” Min. Farrakhan explained. “She had to be secretly put away because the Jews at that time, immersed in the Law of Moses, if they saw the woman pregnant and no man, they would have charged her and killed her, so God protected her and the Qur'an says ‘Jesus and his mother were a sign.' A sign is pointing to something bigger than itself.”
Minister Farrakhan defined character as “the mental and moral qualities distinctive to that individual.” He then defined essence as “the intrinsic nature or indispensable quality of that thing, especially something abstract that determines its character.”
Speaking to men and women he asked, “What happened to us that our morals are not where God wants them to be, our mental qualities have been curtailed, brought down, even killed?”
Men and women in society have fallen so low, they no longer represent what God intends for them to be, Min. Farrakhan continued. The Minister said the essence of man and woman is God Himself and the essence that determines character is the strength of their connection to The Creator.
In the book of Genesis in the Bible, Minister Farrakhan pointed out that God created male and female and “called their name Adam,” showing that there is no man without a woman. God then gave man and woman assignments emanating from the very nature of His creation “to be fruitful and multiply.” God then gave them dominion giving them the very knowledge needed with which to rule.
“You can't be stupid and rule! He (God) never intended for a woman to be ignorant; he never intended for a woman to be unlearned and uneducated because if you are unlearned and uneducated, you cannot fulfill your destiny,” said Minister Farrakhan. “The enemy wanted you dumb. The enemy wants you to think nothing of yourself, so the enemy strips you of your real nature. He has denatured the female and the male and anytime somebody denatures you, they have devalued you. So right now as a woman or as a Black man, you are not valued, and the worst part of that is, you don't value yourself.”Men and women are so devalued in this society that the word “b---h” is a commonly used expression by men and women to refer to women. Women have now been turned into “toxic denatured females” and sex objects stripped of their clothes in order to stimulate men and to be considered “sexy” by this world's standards, he said.“You have made yourself a dog and you are bringing the dog out of men!” added Minister Farrakhan. “Everything the enemy puts before you is to make you sexually attractive to a man, and that's why you are in so much pain because you attracted a dog! You attracted a man that acts like a dog and he made a b---h out of you!”
Speaking of popular female entertainers such as Rhianna, Beyonce and Nicki Minaj, Min. Farrakhan said women in general, and Black women in particular, are portrayed as sexual playthings. This reduces the mother of civilization to a degraded state in which the shape of her body determines her worth and creates a society of degenerates, he explained.
“What in the world are we thinking about that we measure the value of a woman by the shape of her backside? Is this who you are? Is this what you want to be or do you want something better?” he asked.
The Divine wombMinister Farrakhan said God gives the woman a womb that resembles the darkness of space out of which He created everything. Referring to the womb as “the workshop of God,” Min. Farrakhan lamented the way women give up their virtue and chastity to men without a commitment or proof the men are worthy.“You are so valuable that a man should never have you just to have you. He's got to be worthy of you or he's not worth having you!” said the Minister. “There is hardly a man out here that's worthy of you giving away yourself to him. Now there are some out there worthy, but if you are not looking for worthy you will get what you get and you do not look for somebody worthy of you because you have no self-worth—so any man that looks or talks good gets you to lie down with him.”
The act of sex is an act of responsibility. Many women have now become “party mammas” allowing anyone to impregnate them giving birth to children that are raised by grandparents, who pay for the irresponsible actions of their own children. The womb is a “sacred passageway” that should not be easily accessible, said the Minister.
“The chamber to the womb is a sacred chamber that must be guarded,” he stressed.
Using an example from geopolitics, Minister Farrakhan described how much money is spent by nations to defend access to channels and strategic waterways between land masses.
“These geopolitically (canals) are so valuable that they fight for the advantage to be in those places so they can govern, monitor, control and even keep ships they don't like from using those waterways. That's how valuable channels are. The channel to the womb is a sacred channel that must be guarded. The Qur'an says ‘guard your chastity.' ”
A new economic realityAnother critical area Minister Farrakhan outlined was the central role of women in the creation of a new economic and social reality. “Did you know Elijah Muhammad said that the woman is the field through which we produce our Nation? He describes you as earth. Earth is fundamental in everything and so are you,” said Min. Farrakhan. “You are the earth; you are the foundation of civilization.”
Women used to be taught home economics classes which gave them fundamental knowledge of how to sew clothes and cook. This base knowledge not only helped save money because women knew how to make their own clothes, but the knowledge of what type of food to buy and how to properly prepare it resulted in saving money, and healthier people.
He told the audience how Master Fard Muhammad, the Great Mahdi and teacher of the Hon. Elijah Muhammad, emptied out the medicine cabinets of his early followers, saying “your kitchen is your hospital.” Grandmothers and great-grandmothers used simple things from the garden to treat ailments, said Min. Farrakhan.
“The earth itself has everything in it that we need,” said Min. Farrakhan. “They studied the nature of what was around them and when we got sick there was no hospital, they went into the field and picked something up and came in and made some tea for us and we got well. We've lost that power!”
The Jewish people should be studied and used as an example of how a people working together in unity, with a common goal can become powerful, rich and influential, the Minister said.
“In the Babylonian Talmud, Jews are all told ‘you must acquire land.' So Jewish people, no matter where they are in the world, you'll always find them having land, real estate, and cash that they invest,” said Min. Farrakhan.
Their acquisition of land opened the way to embark on trade and commerce and banking and now, the entire world has to go through them.
Black people suffering “indescribable pain” through sharecropping were misused and kept in perpetual debt. Fleeing the skillfully deceptive merchants of the South and the arduous work, many sharecroppers left Southern farms for Northern factories. They did not know, however, that the people who owned factories up North were connected to those running farms down South. Ultimately, this abusive and painful experience diminished the collective Black desire for land ownership.
Cotton comes from the land then is made into clothing that is sold on the market for revenue. Vegetables come from the land and can be eaten and sold for revenue as well. It is a simple formula, essential to the teachings of the Hon. Elijah Muhammad, that has worked for others in the past, the present and can work for the collective Black nation now and in the future.
“Today, you will know that I have a teacher that I am a student of, who loves you so much that he will absolutely train us and is training us to protect you with our lives,” Minister Farrakhan told the women in the audience.

‘Planking' craze reminds some of slavery
‘Planking' craze reminds some of slavery
(NNPA) - A fad entitled “planking” has recently emerged that calls for participants to find the most difficult place in which to lie face down with palms to the side and feet pointed to the floor. It was originated by two men in Australia.
Some say the fad reminds them too much of African slaves who had to lie in the same position for months during the “Middle Passage.”
The game is said to have been by started by Aussies Gary Clarkson and Christian Langdon 14 years ago, according to The Sydney Morning Herald. As children, they performed in public places, reveling in amusement from onlookers. But they had no idea their practice would one day garner worldwide attention, with “plankers” sharing their pictures on social media.
“It was just a really stupid, random thing to do,” Mr. Clarkson told the Australian newspaper. Other Australian kids took up the practice and, in 2007, a Facebook group was created. Plankers from Europe and America started to share their planking pictures on the group and as it gained followers, the practice received worldwide attention.
But, participants found more risky places to lie face down, culminating in the death of a 20-year-old who tried to plank off a balcony. The negative media attention from that incident increased as some began to link the game to slavery.
“If you look at the pictures of the ships used in the ‘Middle Passage,' slaves used the planks as beds,” a report on news web site The Black Urban Times stated. According to the news site, plank collars, or wooden planks with five openings, were used as holding collars for five slaves. Commentator Daja Robinson on entertainment web site thisis50.com called the game a cruel reminder of the past. “This ‘game' is another way to remind us that no matter how far we've come, we will always be a slave to our past,” Ms. Robinson said. “Not that deep to you? Just a game? Well ask your grandparents how they feel about lying face down with their hands to their sides while you take a picture to laugh with your friends and post on Twitter for views.”
In the book “The Slave Ship: A Human History,” author Marcus Rediker detailed the workings of British and American slave ships during the 18th century.
“Vessels in the slave trade needed to be sturdy and durable, so (the buyer) insisted both vessels be built with heavy ‘2 ½ and 3-inch plank with good substantial bends or Whales,” Mr. Rediker wrote.
The author described Oladuh Equiano's Middle Passage as a “pageant of cruelty, degradation and death.”
“The enslaved were spooned together in close quarters, each with about as much room as a corpse in a coffin,” he wrote.
While the current practice of planking did not stem from undertones of slavery, Camillo Smith, a columnist with The Grio called the position a “humiliation and confinement for African people during the Middle Passage” and referenced a passage from, “Upon these Shores: Themes in the African-American Experience, 1600 to the Present.”
“Some ships had tiny bunks, really nothing more than shelves, on which slaves could recline; in others, the slaves lay side by side on the planking, rolling with the ship, bodies virtually touching, for weeks on end,” the book states.
So do you still want to plank?
Petition to make Black History Curriculum Mandatory in grades K-12!
U.S. CONGRESS and Obama Administration: Make it MANDATORY that the History of the Black Experience, including the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade, be taught in all K-12 curricula, and that it be funded through the U.S. Department of Education PetitionTo: U.S. Congress and Obama AdministrationWe, the undersigned, demand that our nation’s lawmakers—the Barrack Obama administration and Congress—establish the history of the African Experience—including the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade—in the curricula of the nation’s public schools, and that it be treated with the same importance as the Jewish Holocaust and Heritage. The Jewish people were victims of a brutal experience under Adolf Hitler’s Nazi Germany, and all Americans have been expected to support the legal, educational, and humanitarian requirement to study this history in our schools to ensure that the history of the Jewish experience is never forgotten and never repeated. Wide knowledge of this history has aided and motivated the Jewish people to accomplish and overcome this difficult past, so that today the Jewish people stand as examples and leaders in many areas of endeavor from culture, to science, to business.
The Africans’ Experience and the African Slave Trade must be treated with the same importance as the Jewish Experience, to ensure that this tragic history never takes place again in the history of man.
Furthermore, we, the undersigned, believe that at the root of our Black community’s tragic degradation is the vast knowledge gap between our past accomplishments and the problems of the present generation. After the Civil War, the newly emancipated slaves set up dozens of independent, self-governing “Black towns,” and they established schools, farms, and businesses for their own communities, yet more than a century and a half later Black communities across the nation face an increase in high school drop-out rates, increases in incarceration rates, and increased poverty, to name a few of the chronic social ills. Instead of declaring a national emergency and mobilizing nationally to find permanent solutions, America has made calculated efforts to remove Black history from textbooks and school curricula. This kind of destructive targeting of Jewish history would never be tolerated.
We, the undersigned, demand that our elected federal, state, and local officials, and especially our school boards, support this petition and act strongly to bring official attention to this crisis and to the history that preceded it. The greatness of the United States of America and the creation of its vast industrial complex are a direct result of the expertise, ingenuity, hard work, raw talent, and bloodshed of Black Americans over hundreds of years. The extent of their contribution is a well-kept secret to most Americans. The descendants of the enslaved, and the descendants of their enslavers, have all been deceived and purposely misled about this critical connection to the past.
We, the undersigned, believe that the books The Secret Relationship Between Blacks and Jews: Vols. 1 & 2, provide the critical knowledge link in the study of the American Slavery Experience. These books, published by the Nation of Islam, and based primarily on the research of Jewish historians, extensively document and properly interpret the Black experience in slavery and Jim Crow, and they reveal the very source of America’s current economic and political infrastructure. Also, Blacks and others have been taught that Jewish people “suffered like black people,” but this new information finally corrects our vision as to the true reason for today’s vast disparity in the social, political, and economic position of Black people as compared with their White and Jewish counterparts.
Therefore, we, the undersigned, join our Jewish counterparts in their commitment to “never again” allow the oppression and degradation of any people. We believe that only through requiring the accurate teaching of the great history of the Black Experience—just as the Jewish experience is taught to us—can America achieve the true greatness that has been denied to her. The survival of the Nation now depends on its knowledge and understanding of the rich history and heritage of the same people whose blood, sweat, and tears built everything that the United States prides itself on. Our nation’s leaders, from President Barrack Obama to our local school boards, must now mandate this curriculum change. This may very well be America’s final call to true change.Sincerely,

Hard Work or Hardly Working? How White People Got So Rich Part 4
Hard Work or Hardly Working? How White People Got So Rich Part 4
*Hard Work or Hardly Working? How White People Got So Rich Part 1
*Hard Work or Hardly Working? How White People Got So Rich Part 2
*Hard Work or Hardly Working? How White People Got So Rich Part 3The world that we live in desires first of all to hide the truth to keep the Black man who is made blind, deaf and dumb by the scientific tricknology of the white race, so that the white race can continue to carry on the same deceiving and wickedness that they have been practicing. —The Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad, The Fall of America
FOUR-PART FINALCALL.COM SERIES
Within this four-part Final Call series, we see every sector of American society implementing profoundly racist policies and programs that are respected and enforced by every other sector. The executive, judicial, and legislative branches of government, private industry, the media, the labor movement, religious institutions, and the corporate world—ALL have agreed on one thing: White Supremacy must prevail. Here are the “nuts and bolts” of this wicked and racist system.
***
Government Sabotage: FBI's COINTELPRO
The FBI took hundreds of known actions against Black advancement organizations during the “civil rights era,” including the use of agent provocateurs, saboteurs, wiretapping, the planting of false rumors and disinformation, and the murders of key leaders and activists. The FBI's own files reveal that the most surveilled, infiltrated, and investigated group of Americans are Black Americans; and of those, the Nation of Islam has garnered more “security index files” than any other organization, including the Communist Party and the Ku Klux Klan. This nefarious activity has only increased with the passage of the 2001 “Patriot Act” after the American/Israeli false flag operation of 9/11. The uncountable agencies formed under the auspices of the Nazi-esque “Homeland Security” have simply moved Blacks into the category of “terrorism” and carried out the malevolent mandate of the legendary racist and cross-dressing FBI director J. Edgar Hoover. They have also farmed out many of their former governmental functions to private firms like Blackwater, Southern Poverty Law Center, or the Anti-Defamation League.
Affirmative Action
The presidential executive orders of the 1960s known as “affirmative action” were only intended to address government employment discrimination or discrimination by private businesses that received government contracts. Other private businesses were not covered and most simply refused to hire Blacks. In 1970, the majority of Black college graduates were government employees—the only entity forced by law to take them. Unions were not covered, and at one point a major national union had but 50 Black apprentices—just one for every state!
The civil rights movement held great “affirmative action” benefits for Jews, women, and gays, however. All stood in the background whilst Blacks took the beatings, water hoses, lynchings, and insults to pry open the doors to America's inner sanctum. Legislation for which Blacks suffered and died included language that erased barriers for every other “minority” group. These groups then used the civil rights laws to secure their own place in the corporate world, for which they also acted as gatekeepers, refusing entry to Blacks.
Corporate Welfare
The phrase “corporate welfare” describes government tax breaks and subsidies awarded by the federal government to American businesses for which the public receives no goods or services. Moderate estimates say that these giveaway programs bestowed overwhelmingly on wealthy White businesses cost all Americans from $100 to $150 billion a year. Whites obscure this hand-out by pointing to social welfare programs like AFDC (Aid to Families with Dependent Children), which amounts to a comparatively trivial $20 billion a year, with Blacks representing just 4 in 10 of the recipients—and 100 percent of that money is ultimately routed to the White businesses that provide the goods and services. Corporations with their mouths full of “gimme” and their hands full of “much obliged” include Boeing, Xerox, IBM, Motorola, Dow Chemical, and General Electric. Also considered welfare are the recent bank bailouts and the zero-interest loans from the Federal Reserve to financial institutions such as JP Morgan Chase, Citigroup, Wells Fargo and Bank of America. Unaccounted for in this giveaway of American tax money is the massive expense for unnecessary weapons programs for the unjustifiable military campaigns America has waged around the world. This is yet another major form of welfare and make-work job creation for White people for which Blacks receive a perpetual bill every April.
Policing of Blacks
The policing of Black America is a function that has direct roots in plantation slavery. The task of hunting down and instilling fear into innocent enslaved Black people fell to the newest European immigrants, primarily the Irish, who took on the role with a special fervor. Even today, the ceremonies and funerals of both the military and police forces across America include an Irish bagpipe band, testifying to a role that was once exclusively theirs.
Blacks are tolerated in an urban setting because they are the blue-collar labor force that turns on the city early every morning, flips the burgers, bags the groceries, carts the people and products in and out, delivers the mail, turns the hotel bed sheets, mammies the little White babies, and then mops up in the evening. But they must, absolutely must, return to their designated geographic confines in the city shadows at the end of every business day.
Thus, the role of police is that of containment of the Black population and protection of the White—firmly and violently keeping Blacks within their prescribed boundaries, and protecting the merchants as they move in and around the inner cities. This is why a police SWAT team will unhesitatingly hunt a Black petty thief to the far corners of the slums, but has no jurisdiction, no power, no authority to gaze in the direction of the billion-dollar gangsters on America's Wall Streets.
War on Drugs
Under the Anti-Drug Abuse Act of 1986, the mostly White powder-cocaine users would have to be caught in possession of 100 times the amount of “crack” cocaine, used by mostly inner-city Blacks, to suffer the same legal penalties.
This legislation (with the ignorant support of several negro legislators) engineered the wholesale population shift of Black men into the increasingly privatized prison camps of White America. By 1990, the proportion of Blacks admitted to state and federal prisons rose from 39 to 53 percent. Blacks accounted for 88.3 percent of crack distribution convictions even though the majority of crack users, by this time, were White. Felony convictions and plea bargains eliminated voting rights for thousands and limited all future job opportunities. In 2011, there are more Black men in prison or jail, on probation or parole than were enslaved in 1850. This created and now sustains a highly profitable private prison industry and a captive Black workforce that serves White corporate America for pennies an hour—slaves yet again. Whites use more drugs, and more varied drugs, in higher amounts, and are a much higher percentage of the population, yet Blacks are far more likely to be stopped, searched, arrested, prosecuted, convicted and incarcerated for drug law violations than are Whites.
Citizenship & Immigration
In Message to the Blackman, The Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad wrote: “An American according to the dictionary ‘is a citizen of the United States or of the earlier British Colonies; one not belonging to one of the aboriginal races.' We belong to the aboriginal nation of the earth; the White or European race is not aboriginal.” Citizenship includes the right to vote and own land, but citizenship was not open to all races until 1952—and even then it was severely limited by immigration quotas. All Whites were allowed citizenship by the late 1770s, but Blacks, Indians, and Latinos have always been considered “second-class citizens.”
***
These are just a few of the entrenched benefits that comprise what The Hon. Minister Louis Farrakhan calls the “Architecture of American White Supremacy.” This dizzying array of programs, policies, and institutional behaviors constitutes the nuts and bolts of White privilege and accounts for the incredible wealth advantage Whites have over Blacks, an advantage that has now reached 20-1. No, the claimed “hard work” or “nose-to-the-grindstone” method is pure Euro-mythology and yet another psychic trick to suggest that Black poverty is merely a sign of Black laziness and inferiority. There is a reason why White people constructed thousands of ships and sailed thousands of miles across a treacherous ocean to attack and steal millions of people from Africa—and it is not because those people are lazy. Indeed, they are the most productive and industrious people who ever lived.
These behaviors are not random acts of renegade Caucasians, but the highly efficient tactical operation of a sociopathic people acting on the perfected Yakubian principle of racial domination. Whites feign ignorance of these extraordinary injustices when they make their ludicrous claims about their “HARD WORK” and when they prescribe “solutions” for the children of their former slaves.
This is their playbook (their real bible)—the sum and substance of the one book of mathematics Allah permitted them to have—and they have no other. From the infamous Compromise of 1877 onward, all programs and policies were duty-bound to conform to the sacred objective of White supremacy. And since this is the behavior of American Caucasians toward their own citizens, their foreign policy can only be a species of this devious master plan. The Messenger was clear and probably accurate:“They have no respect for people who want to be at peace with them. They have no respect for the laws of justice. They have made trouble all over the world with people who were at peace among themselves until the white shadows of the troublemakers spread out over them. We have history that they, themselves, have written of self, bearing witness to what I am teaching today. What must be done since we cannot get along with them in peace?”
As our great Brother Minister Louis Farrakhan has established beyond the shadow of a doubt, Whites have absolutely no intention of ever returning their ill-gotten gains to their victims, or even admitting they have committed any evil at all. Indeed, these are intrinsic, unalterable, programmed behaviors that have brought them near total success. Appealing to their sense of “fair play” is a pitifully useless enterprise—it can never bear (and has borne no) fruit at all. The only appeal we now can make is to Allah, and to Him alone. The Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad pointed to a clear, concise program of righteous Separation from the most evil regime ever devised. He said: “We want our people in America whose parents or grandparents were descendants from slaves, to be allowed to establish a separate state or territory of their own—either on this continent or elsewhere.” And as his greatest Apostle has plainly stated, “Pharaoh has let us go.”
The Messenger prescribes “hard work in a collective manner”—unity—for our people, action that we MUST take, but we are not alone. Minister Farrakhan has made so many REAL friends for us around the world, with whom we can unite and form true and mutually beneficial alliances. Let us resist any further investment in a failed society and pool our resources to establish our own Nation based on freedom, justice, and equality. It will indeed be “hard work” to separate from a people whose perception of justice is exactly opposite that of Almighty God, Allah. But in reality, we have no other choice.

—The Messenger of Allah, The Most Honorable Elijah MuhammadFOUR-PART FINALCALL.COM SERIES
There is nothing mystical or mysterious about how White people established their superior position in America and the world—and it had absolutely nothing to do with either merit or “hard work.” The list of benefits that Whites granted to themselves—mostly by gangster force and wily deception—is the untold reality behind the building of their vast portfolios of plunder. Within this four-part Final Call series, we see every sector of American society implementing profoundly racist policies and programs that are respected and enforced by every other sector. The executive, judicial, and legislative branches of government, private industry, the media, the labor movement, religious institutions, and the corporate world—ALL have agreed on one thing: White supremacy must prevail.
Here is how they do it:
Building of American Cities
Hundreds of thousands of jobs were created by the massive public works projects launched throughout America, such as the building of New York City, the largest construction project since the building of the Great Wall of China (to protect the Chinese people from marauding Whites, by the way). Racist officials like New York city planner Robert Moses (a Jew) conspired with American labor unions to deny Blacks and Latinos these construction jobs. White ethnic immigrants got the lion's share of the jobs and learned the skills in these publicly funded projects that catapulted them into control of the construction trades today.
Public Housing
The U.S. government created massive racially segregated cities within cities that became known as “the projects.” Many of these developments were built as temporary housing for returning World War II veterans, until the G.I. Bill and other veteran benefit programs allowed Whites to move into single-family homes in racially exclusive suburbs. Black vets—with many fewer employment, education, and housing options than even the immigrants—were locked in these projects that became multi-generational Black slum sub-cultures.
The National Interstate and Defense Highways Act opened up the suburbs for White flight, while simultaneously providing millions of Whites-only construction jobs.
Sundown Towns
Hundreds of American towns (many of them in the North) passed ordinances prohibiting Blacks from living in them, or from being in the town after sundown (maids, gardeners, and sanitation workers were given time to leave at night). Some towns actually had bells or horns that would signal when Blacks were to leave. The largest builder of these segregated towns in the post–World War II era was William Levitt (a Jew), whose leases for his massive Levittown cities in the North forbade the very presence of “any person other than members of the Caucasian race.”
Social Security
Social Security was created in 1935 to send support payments to Americans in their senior years, yet its benefits were specifically denied to agricultural and domestic workers because the vast majority of those jobs were held by “non-Whites.” Racial legislation often targets its victims by occupation and not explicitly by race, though the effect is the same. Social Security benefits for the White elderly allow their working-age children to pay for college for their children, and to pass more money down through inheritance, down payments on cars and houses, et cetera. Meanwhile, Blacks who were prevented from receiving this government benefit had to use their already depressed wages to support their elderly parents and had far fewer resources to help their own children. White families and communities were strengthened and stabilized through this program.
Unemployment Insurance
Unemployment insurance, which gives workers an income bridge between jobs, originally did not apply to domestic workers or farm workers, the vast majority of whom were “non-White.”
National Recovery Act (NRA)
The NRA was enacted in 1933 and set American wages at $12 a week, but most jobs Blacks held were not covered by the law, so employers reduced Blacks' wages in order to raise the pay of White workers to meet the NRA wage requirement. Blacks covered by the higher wage laws were often fired and replaced with Whites. Some called the NRA the “Negro Removal Act.” According to Georgia peanut farmer and U.S. president Jimmy Carter: “By law, the average black family got only $8 [a week] because the presumption was that they could live more cheaply.”
Minimum Wage Law
The 1938 Minimum Wage law originally did not extend to workers in laundries, hotels, hairdressing shops, restaurants, domestic service, or farm work, where, again, Blacks were concentrated. At least half of all Black workers in the South were excluded. It outlawed child labor for White, but not Black, children. By 1943 the average Black family in the rural South made only a third of what POOR White families made. In the city Blacks made $635 a year, while Whites made $2,019. (The basic cost of subsistence was $1,200.)
Home Owners' Loan Corporation (HOLC)
After the Great Depression of 1929, approximately one million loans were made to help homeowners retain their homes. Not a single penny intentionally went to a Black person, even though a greater proportion of Blacks lost their homes in the Depression.
Veterans Administration (VA) Mortgages
The VA mortgage program allowed five million White men to buy their first home. Between 1930 and 1960 only one percent of all these mortgages went to Blacks, and collateral was sometimes required for Blacks but not for Whites. In 1947, of 3,229 VA loans in Mississippi, only two went to Blacks.
The private market was just as atrocious with its unrestrained discrimination in the form of restrictive covenants and mortgage restrictions against “Negroes, Africans, and Ethiopians.” A publication of the National Association of Real Estate Boards advised realtors to be on guard against “a colored man of means who was giving his children a college education and thought they were entitled to live among Whites,” and it compared such a Black man to a bootlegger or pimp who wanted to hide his criminal activity by living in a better neighborhood.
The development of the suburbs was an almost entirely White phenomenon. One-fifth of the country went from renters to homeowners in the 15 years after World War II. Massive suburban home building projects like Levittown built homes at a rate of 30 a day, but Jewish developer William Levitt actually went to court to keep Blacks out. That WWII generation of homeowners is now willing their assets to their children in what is called the greatest transfer of wealth in history.
Federal Housing Administration (FHA)
Private American banks teamed up with the government, sat in front of a map, and drew big red lines around Black communities and refused mortgages, home insurance, financing, and loans to everyone inside—a practice called “red-lining.” This kept Blacks from the wealth-building benefits of home ownership and made them vulnerable to loan sharks, who, in many cases, were the predatory agents of the redlining banks.
In 1962, Pres. John F. Kennedy banned racial discrimination in federally owned or funded housing but less than 1 percent of all housing was covered. The 1964 Civil Rights Act banned discrimination but less than 20 percent of new housing was covered. It specifically exempted federal mortgage insurance programs from anti-discrimination laws. The Housing Act of 1968 (passed less than a week after Whites murdered Martin Luther King) covered over 80 percent of housing but provided little enforcement power and offered virtually no protection against the privatediscriminatory practices of realtors, banks, and zoning boards.
U.S. Housing Act (Urban Renewal)
Also known as “Negro Removal,” this series of federal laws destroyed 400,000 homes by 1960, but only 11,000 lower-rent replacement units were built. The Act allowed segregation and discrimination to intensify in outlying areas, forcing Blacks and Latinos into geographically concentrated areas in the “inner cities.” It also destroyed many Black businesses by the displacement of customers and the rerouting of traffic.
Aid to Families With Dependent Children (AFDC)
Originally designed for White women, AFDC became stigmatized as a program for unmarried, lazy, “loose” Black mothers. It was the only program with a “morals test” for recipients, terminating women with husbands (“men living in their homes”), effectively destroying Black families. In Georgia, one study found that 14 percent of eligible White families received benefits, but only 1.5 percent of eligible Black families did.
G.I. (Veterans) Bill— Job Placement
$95 billion was spent on the G.I. Bill from 1944 to 1971. But various methods were used to discriminate against Blacks. Those Blacks who could qualify were steered into menial jobs. In 1946, 86 percent of White vets were referred to professional jobs and 92 percent of Black vets were referred to unskilled service jobs. Refusing these jobs was grounds for denial of other benefits like unemployment insurance. [Note: To avoid using the language of racism, the federal government put the operation of these programs in the hands of local governments, which meant that racist White Southern officials determined who received the benefits—just as they determined who could and could not vote.]
G.I. Bill—Education
Two million WWII veterans attended college under the G.I. Bill, but eligible Blacks were excluded from White universities and the few small underfunded Black schools were swamped with tens of thousands more applicants than they were able to admit—55 percent were turned away. Whites obtained education and moved rapidly into the upper middle classes. Blacks who believed their military service would give them better opportunities were frustrated yet again.

FOUR-PART FINALCALL.COM SERIES
There is nothing mystical or mysterious about how White people established their superior position in America—and it had absolutely nothing to do with either merit or “hard work.” The list of benefits that Whites granted to themselves—mostly by gangster force and wily deception—is the untold reality behind the building of their vast portfolios of plunder. Within this four-partFinalCall.com News series, we see every sector of American society implementing profoundly racist policies and programs that are respected and enforced by every other sector. The executive, judicial, and legislative branches of government, private industry, the media, the labor movement, religious institutions, and the corporate world—ALL have agreed on one thing: White Supremacy must prevail. Here is how they do it:
Homestead Act
The Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan said that “Land is the basis of economic development, economic freedom, and business.” If this is true—and it is—the Homestead Act is probably the most rewarding affirmative action program American Whites have ever given themselves. Beginning in 1865, 250 million acres of land were given away to White families—many of whom had actually participated in the Southern Confederate rebellion against America—as much as 640 free acres for each White family (each acre being about the size of a football field). European immigrants were great beneficiaries of this “legal” land snatch, while the Black ex-slaves who had actually worked that land for generations—and the Indians who owned it—were kept far away from this unprecedented giveaway. Today, more than three-fourths of White families own a home. This important asset allows Whites to invest in their children's education, cars, marriages, businesses, and first-home down payments.
'Even before the Civil War, enslaved Blacks held a virtual monopoly of almost all labor, including the skilled crafts and trades. They were so dominant in the workforce that some of the most racist Whites, unable to compete, became abolitionists just to break up the Black labor monopoly.'
Labor Union MovementThe union movement of the late 1800s has probably done more to destroy Black progress than any other White affirmative action initiative, yet it is almost totally invisible in the written histories of Blacks in America. “The Secret Relationship Between Blacks and Jews, Vol. 2,” proves that the union
movement was specifically designed to remove Blacks from the skilled trades they dominated and install the European immigrants who were flooding in by the millions. Scholars attribute the rapid success of immigrant groups directly to the advantages they received through their union membership.
Even before the Civil War, enslaved Blacks held a virtual monopoly of almost all labor, including the skilled crafts and trades. They were so dominant in the workforce that some of the most racist Whites, unable to compete, became abolitionists just to break up the Black labor monopoly. Moreover, many of these Blacks were the major breadwinners for the families that enslaved them. Some states, seeking to give the White man an advantage, passed laws prohibiting the hiring of Blacks—slave or free—when a White man could be found to do the work. These were the first recorded affirmative action laws in American history, entirely for the benefit of the under-qualified, lower-skilled White man.
The most powerful union leader in America was Samuel Gompers (a Jew), who led the American Federation of Labor (AFL) in its earliest stages. Under Gompers, AFL unions systematically and violently forced Black workers out of the occupations they once dominated. He wrote: “Caucasian civilization will serve notice [to Blacks] that its uplifting process is not to be interfered with in any way.” A common union expression was “Never let a nigger pick up a tool.”
By the turn of the century, the Black man—once the predominant worker in America—was locked in the lowest wage labor or was totally jobless, forcing Black women into the job market as farm workers and domestics in White homes. The higher wages of the unionized White male relieved White women of hard labor, and provided them with the leisure time and financing for the development of art, literature, education, and culture.
Asian Exclusion Acts
In 1890, the U.S. government, pushed by the unions, passed a law excluding all Asians from coming to America! San Francisco congressman Julius Kahn (a Jew) authored the racist legislation, a.k.a. the Kahn Exclusion Act, telling Congress that “the duplicity and the trickery of the Chinese themselves made it necessary.” At the same time, Congress made European immigration much easier. By doing so Whites protected their commerce from superior competition and protected White workers from the more efficient and industrious Asians. White Europeans flooded into the American west coast to violently attack the Asians and to seize their place in the job market. Those Asians that remained were subject to a Jim Crow law and viciously racist propaganda tailored just for them.
'A landmark Supreme Court decision of 1896 reinforced the legitimacy of Jim Crow law, which remained the standard in U.S. law for the next century. Whites maintained full and complete superiority in all legal, political, economic, and social affairs. Understand the significance of this: Black business had no way of enforcing contracts and all criminal acts against them were legally invisible. Wealth could simply be stolen from Blacks at any time and for any reason and by anybody, with absolutely no recourse'.Plessy v. Ferguson
A landmark Supreme Court decision of 1896 reinforced the legitimacy of Jim Crow law, which remained the standard in U.S. law for the next century. Whites maintained full and complete superiority in all legal, political, economic, and social affairs. Understand the significance of this: Black business had no way of enforcing contracts and all criminal acts against them were legally invisible. Wealth could simply be stolen from Blacks at any time and for any reason and by anybody, with absolutely no recourse. One example of many is the Jewish-owned Moses Brothers Bank of Montgomery, Alabama, which had hundreds of Black customers with deposits amounting to as much as half a million dollars. When it abruptly closed, that money was never returned.
So, by design, there was no incentive for Blacks to keep, save, or invest money. Under such conditions Blacks prudently develop a spend-it-as-you-get-it culture that saves little and invests in nothing. Blacks work for low wages, and then on Friday they return it all to White retailers, because the system severely punishes any other Black fiscal behavior. In America, ruthless financial exploitation of the struggling ex-slave was actually the law of the land. And this made Blacks veritable sitting ducks for the immigrant retailers (many of them Jewish) who came to America not penniless—but with centuries of entrepreneurial experience and with the support of entrenched family business networks. This is what White immigrants mean when they say that in America, “the streets are paved with gold.” The economic targeting of Blacks became the most well-travelled route to White wealth—a method that is still very much in force today.
The Plessy v. Ferguson ruling also turbo-charged the so-called “White Supremacy” political movement that swept America which targeted “Negro domination” and approved every means necessary to keep Blacks from voting and from holding political office. In 1923, Sen. William C. Lankford of Georgia made the following remarks from the floor of Congress to great applause from his colleagues: “I truly believe in the supremacy of the White race. I believe the White race gave us the greatest possible form of government. No other race could have added to it. This government of the White man was not helped when the Negro began voting. He will not make it better in the future….I believe that when this planet was created the Almighty personally turned it over to the Whites.” This rhetoric, unashamedly spewed within the most hallowed halls of the U.S. government, confirmed that the philosophy of America's power structure was indistinguishable from the beliefs and mission of the Ku Klux Klan. Today in 2011 the U.S. senate is a veritable sea of Caucasians.
Pres. Woodrow Wilson
During his White House tenure from 1913 to 1921, Pres. Woodrow Wilson made racial segregation United States policy. This included the wholesale firing of Blacks in government positions throughout America and replacing them with Whites. One day in 1913, for instance, the Atlanta postmaster simply fired 50 Black messengers and gave their jobs to Whites. When questioned he said that the Whites had families to support, though he actually needed no reason at all. Between the unions and private sector discrimination, Wilson's ethnic cleansing of the government workforce further relegated Blacks to agricultural and domestic labor.
Public Education Policy
Having been president of Princeton University, Woodrow Wilson was the most intelligent of the U.S. presidents, but his public education policy was categorically wicked. He declared: “We want a class of persons to have a liberal education, and we want another class of persons, a very much larger class of necessity in every society, to forego the privilege of a liberal education and fit themselves to perform specific difficult manual tasks.” That “very much larger” class consisted of Blacks, whose public schooling over the last century ensured that Black students fulfilled this designated inferior role. The curriculum for Whites in the Birmingham, Alabama, public school system (beyond the three Rs) included Latin, history, geology, astronomy, rhetoric, physiology, and algebra, while education for Blacks focused solely on “manual training.” The city's “colored” school system, incidentally, was created and controlled by the city's rabbi, who was also a B'nai B'rith official.
Farmers Home Administration (FHA)
Even though Blacks were concentrated in agriculture, the FHA gave almost all of its farm subsidies to White farmers to make up for low cotton prices. Black-owned farms fell dramatically from about 900,000 in 1930 when the program was established, to 682,000 in 1939. Many of the Whites used the money to modernize by buying tractors and evicting Black sharecroppers. Congress amended the law to say that half the money should go to these tenant farmers, but the White farm owners simply stole their checks.
The federal government has only recently agreed to pay $1.2 billion to 70,000 Black farmers who were denied FHA loans that White farmers routinely received. The evidence of systematic racism was so overwhelming that the government did not even dispute it. Blacks suffered the massive loss of their agricultural sector, while giant White agribusinesses gobbled up the spoils. Thousands of Blacks lost land and were forced out of farming.
White Liberals' Mis-Guidance & Treachery
Even though Blacks had been socially engineered out of economic development, a White Jew named Joel Spingarn—the first chairman of the NAACP—created a philosophy specifically for Blacks that he called “non-economic liberalism,” which ultimately became known as the “civil rights movement.” Jews had built their entire community infrastructure through an economic strategy, yet their promotion of this anti-economic method for Blacks showed that the “help” that Jews offered was really just a “hypocritical trick” designed to keep Blacks forever on the consumer side of the American cash register. Jews became the richest single ethnic group in the history of America by targeting the Black dollar, whilst Blacks, following this Jewish liberal “friendship,” have become a “permanent underclass.”
'According to declassified documents, it turns out that Spingarn—the leader of the NAACP—was also a paid undercover agent for the United States Army. Joel Spingarn and “a small unit of undercover agents” were seeking “proof of subversion” and opened 100,000 pieces of mail a week and monitored the messages being promoted in Black publications. It is no mystery why the NAACP under Spingarn was at the forefront of the government attack on the Honorable Marcus M. Garvey, the great advocate of building a strong Black economy.'According to declassified documents, it turns out that Spingarn—the leader of the NAACP—was also a paid undercover agent for the United States Army.

It is no mystery why the NAACP under Spingarn was at the forefront of the government attack on the Honorable Marcus M. Garvey, the great advocate of building a strong Black economy. They actually ran and promoted a vicious campaign they called “Garvey Must Go!”
Hollywood and Racial Propaganda
The Negroes are shown as horrible brutes, given over to beastly excesses, defiant and criminal in their attitude towards the Whites, and lusting for White women. Some of the scenes are plainly morbid and repulsive. —a review of Birth of a Nation, in Moving Picture World, 1915
Hollywood produced a plethora of popular films that promoted White supremacy as the national creed and clearly articulated for European immigrants a common enemy—Blacks. The very first blockbuster movie, Birth of a Nation (1915), actually paid homage to the Ku Klux Klan. Financed and produced by Boston-based Jewish investors, it revived the terrorist organization, which grew to its largest size ever.
Arguably, much of the White resistance to Black rights is a reaction to the consistently negative and despicable Black images portrayed in film. The anti-Jewish propaganda films of Adolph Hitler are often cited as the method by which he won the support of the German people for the Jewish Holocaust. In America, the resurgent KKK used Birth of a Nation to recruit new members, and Louis B. Mayer (a Jew) started MGM with the profits he made from the film's distribution. He and others continued to produce a chain of demeaning anti-Black, anti-Indian, anti-Asian, anti-Arab, and anti-Latino films.

* Hard Work or Hardly Working? How White People Got So Rich Part 2
(FinalCall.com) - The foundation of American White supremacy sits tenuously on a rickety base of lies and deceptions about how Whites gained their wealth and status. A century and a half after slavery the median wealth of White families is $100,000; for Black families, it's $5,000. The belief that Whites achieved this 20-1 wealth advantage by HARD WORK is an absurd and a historical fantasy. Nonetheless, the airwaves are filled with the self-righteous pronouncements of Caucasian commentators anxious to “advise” Blacks to “work hard” and to “pull themselves up by their bootstraps” if they want to succeed in America. Not only do they seek to invent a fraudulent fairy tale that whitewashes a very bloody legacy, but they also aim to reaffirm the notion that “non-Whites” are naturally inferior and lazy and are thus responsible for having comparatively nothing. The truth is a whole lot nastier than that.The group that has always posed as the “best friends of Black people” is most fond of making this argument, yet the Jews are guilty of the worst abuses of the slavery and Jim Crow systems of White empowerment. Any reader of
The Secret Relationship Between Blacks and Jews, Vol. 2, will discover that Jewish wealth in America was so completely dependent on Black slavery that their incessant Jewish mantra of “hard work” will be forever consigned to mythology. The mechanisms of government and private industry that were constructed to specifically hamstring Black prospects for success after slavery are extraordinary. In harmony, government and private industry, and all sectors of American society, instituted a series of White Affirmative Action programs for the benefit of WHITE EURO-AMERICANS ONLY, programs which gave them material advantages that had nothing whatever to do with either merit or “hard work.”
The Messenger of Allah, The Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad—The Messiah—said: “Observe the operations of the white man. He is successful. He makes no excuses for his failures. He works hard in a collective manner. You do the same.”
This is the first of a four-part observation of the operations of the White man. It will take us on a journey through the reactive mind of the racial sociopaths who have worked hard in a collective manner to construct our Black American reality. And through this process we will examine just some of the acts and policies that are the nuts and bolts of the White man's dubious “superiority.”

Indian Land Grab
“God never intended that the people of the earth go about killing each other to rob each other of their homes. It was never done by anyone but the white race.” Ultimately, the Indian Holocaust netted for the White man 2.3 billion acres of free land.Right from the very start the European settlers were begging their British king to destroy the “savages” faster than he already was. It was one of the reasons they listed in their Declaration of Independence that caused them to want to SEPARATE from England. Merchants, many of them Jewish, supplied the British, French, and American armies to ethnically cleanse the indigenous Native Americans from their ancient lands. Once the bloody deed was done and the murderous armies retreated, it was those merchants who surveyed and divided the land into lots and began selling them to White settlers. This land “value” was created out of thin air and these property rights were then protected by the U.S. government. Legendary American “frontiersmen” like Daniel Boone were actually surveyors in the employ of these merchants, and some of Boone's receipts are actually in Yiddish.
Later, President Andrew Jackson's Indian Removal Act of 1830 initiated a series of massacres and wars against the Indian Nations, killing most and evicting the rest from their own land. This policy imprisoned the survivors on approximately 310 “reservations,” where they can be found today. The Messenger wrote that “The white man has left a remnant of that people for the sake of mockery and for his children to see the people their fathers conquered in taking this land of the Indians for their own land (as they call it today). God never intended that the people of the earth go about killing each other to rob each other of their homes. It was never done by anyone but the white race.” Ultimately, the Indian Holocaust netted for the White man 2.3 billion acres of free land.
Dawes Act
Massachusetts congressman Henry L. Dawes drafted federal legislation enacted in 1887 which ordered the “registering” of Indians so that they could receive an allotment of their own land! But to get on the “Dawes Rolls,” Native Americans had to anglicize their names. This allowed White officials to slip the names of their relatives and friends onto the Dawes Rolls and reap millions of acres of land. In one state alone, the 138 million acres of Indian-held land at the time of the Dawes Act in 1887 had been reduced to 47 million acres by 1934, when the Act was repealed.
'Everything you see in the western world—its cities, institutions, and wealth—is built on Black slavery.'Slavery
Everything you see in the western world—its cities, institutions, and wealth—is built on Black slavery. Paris, Rome, London, New York—name the place, and its riches are built on the backs of the Black man and woman. The Secret Relationship Between Blacks and Jews, Vols. 1 and 2, and the next ten thousand Final Call issues could only begin to elaborate on that statement but let us just take the most celebrated and iconic American—George Washington. At one point in his ignominious life, he held 216 Black Africans—92 of them children (this high ratio of children to adults indicates Washington was a slave-breeder). What could one do today with that many lifelong unpaid employees?
Jim Crow Laws
The so-called Jim Crow laws were simply reconstituted Slave Laws and they applied throughout America, in the South and North. Their aim was not to keep Blacks from “White” drinking fountains and toilets, or even to stop them from breaking the law—but to keep Blacks from accumulating property, starting businesses, engaging in trade and commerce, and establishing an independent economic base and to force them back to the cotton plantations. Whites, having “legally” eliminated all competition from the most productive people on earth, benefitted immensely from these repressive American racial restrictions.
Religious Policy: The Hamitic MythThe foundation for nearly all of America's most destructive acts and policies has been a religious one—from the “just wars” and “manifest destiny” used to justify the Holocaust against the Indians, to the cross-burning violence of the Christian Ku Klux Klan. Originally, in ancient times, slavery victimized all races and peoples, but Medieval Jewish rabbis, who sought to justify the targeting of African human beings, invented a racist embellishment of the Noah story which asserted that God cursed ALL BLACK PEOPLE with black skin, thereby marking them forevermore as permanent slaves to White people. All major religions adopted this racist motif and liberally used it to justify the most profitable Caucasian enterprise in the history of the planet—the African slave trade.
White Terrorism
The Ku Klux Klan was the generic name for literally hundreds of White terrorist groups set up to force the ex-slave back in “his place” on the plantation picking the commodity at the very center of the world economy—cotton. These Ku Kluxers were not errant outlaws—they comprised White government officials, businesses, and religious leaders. The Klan openly recruited in churches and synagogues and Masonic halls, and many communities held Ku Klux Klan country fairs. Armed, robed, and hooded, often by Jewish merchants, they burnt Black businesses, farms, schools, property, and human beings—with government sanction and participation.
Such government-sanctioned terrorism ensured that Blacks would be unable to accumulate wealth and pass it on to later generations. This is important to future White prosperity, because it has been estimated that up to 80 percent of lifetime wealth accumulation is attributable to gifts from ancestors.Such government-sanctioned terrorism ensured that Blacks would be unable to accumulate wealth and pass it on to later generations. This is important to future White prosperity, because it has been estimated that up to 80 percent of lifetime wealth accumulation is attributable to gifts from ancestors. The KKK only waned in its influence when the U.S. government, through executions and mass incarcerations carried out by its “justice system,” took over most of the KKK's main terrorist functions.
Sharecropping
Sharecropping is the Talmud-based economic system that was set up throughout the South to continue the benefits of Black slavery long after its legal end. The cotton profits generated by the extraordinary Black farmers called sharecroppers financed America's railroads, factories, mills, the building of the major cities, and the entire U.S. infrastructure. It is truthfully asserted that the major cities of America and the Western world were “built with bricks of cotton.” Noted scholar W.E.B. Du Bois concluded that in the 35 years after the end of slavery fully three-quarters of the wages due Black farmers had been simply stolen from them.
Compromise of 1877
The Compromise of 1877 is arguably the most devastating single event in the history of Blacks in America. That is when a group of politicians convened at the Wormley Hotel in Washington, D.C., to attempt to resolve the deadlocked presidential election of 1876 between Rutherford B. Hayes and Samuel Tilden. They agreed that if Hayes were awarded the presidency, he would remove the federal troops protecting the ex-slaves in the South, and the former Southern slaveholding class would be free to return to power and establish new forms of slavery without federal oversight or control. This is the exact point in American history when Whites determined that the Black man and woman would forever be a second-class citizen in all aspects of American society.
After twelve years of “emancipation” Blacks were returned to virtual slavery, and assigned to permanent political, social, and economic inferiority. A Jewish congressman from Louisiana, William M. Levy, gave the speech that convinced the lawmakers that this wicked act that scholars call “the Great Betrayal of the Negro people” was the best policy for America.
Blacks had made great strides in developing private businesses, but the Ku Klux Klan targeted these businesses for destruction as in Rosewood, Fla. and Tulsa (Black Wall Street), Okla. and many, many other lesser-known places. Blacks lost billions in investment dollars to Whites through these acts of terror. Black businesses were often uninsured because of the racist policies of American insurance companies, so the destruction of a Black business was totally unrecoverable. Whites had no such disabilities in growing their businesses.
The most profound part of this history, however, is that on THE SAME DAY that those White politicians decided to end Black progress forever, Allah decided that The Saviour to the Black man and woman would be born. Both events—the two MOST SIGNIFICANT IN THE HISTORY OF BLACK AMERICA—happened on February 26, 1877!
