Question

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VAc9Kjyne98

Answer 1

I admire Minister Farrakhan as an intellectual, but do not agree with him on many things. He is right where he talks about the negative images perpetuated about Blacks and Historically how our enemys happened to be nations that were economically opposed to us. However, I want to see what his views are regarding terrorists murdering people. As for the rhetoric he uses to say the patriarchs and kings and Jesus did not use the proper nouns of Judiasm or Christianity to define their beliefs. However, the practiced their faith in accordance with words handed down by God...regardless of what it was called, it left the legacies of Judiasm, Christianity and Islam...you can refer to these religions by whatever name you want, but a rose is a rose is a rose....Love these stimulating conversations, thanks for this clip, it is really food for thought.

Answer 2

Farrakhan makes some good points

Answer 3

Sorry I have a slow internet con I couldn't hear most of what Farrakhan said. I think he causes trouble with a lot of what he says. Maybe not in this example but I have heard other of his speaches. Did he talk about the MOTHER SHIP this time????

Answer 4

For the record, I am white and I want to comment on this. I only listened to the first minute and a half of the video. But I understand and agree with what he is saying when it comes to gangsta rap. I love hip hop more when it was about breakdance battles and not gang-banging.

Answer 5

I don't know a single person that I would want to consider my "leader". Why do people follow other people's belief systems anyway. Why do you need a leader? Can't you think for yourselves?

Answer 6

Why is this question only for Black People?

Answer 7

What a freak.

Answer 8

Sometimes he is.
