KhalidMuhammad #NationOfIslam #BlackHistory Khallid Abdul Muhammad 1948–2001Activist, former Nation of Islam ministerKhallid Abdul Muhammad called himself a “truth terrorist” and a “knowledge gangsta,” and he was clearly at war with the status quo. A spokesman allied with the Nation of Islam, Muhammad ignited a storm of controversy through his dynamic, emotional speechmaking. Having attacked Jews, homosexuals, the Pope, and white South Africans, Muhammad was labeled a dangerous racist and anti-Semite. To his followers, however, he was a force for positive change, empowerment, and cultural pride in the African-American community who simply told the truth as he saw it. According to Rogers Worthington in the Chicago Tribune, Muhammad “can be entertaining one moment, and chilling the next. He’ll talk of the need for black self-love, self-help, discipline and independence in one breath, and in the next he’ll launch into a fiery anti-white, anti Semitic diatribe assigning blame for all of black America’s ills.”After 1992 Muhammad took his message all across the country, to colleges and lecture halls, attempting to reach troubled young African Americans. He has clashed— though not seriously—with Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan, who noted in Emerge: “Brother Khallid is like a stallion, a beautiful black stallion. And it takes God to ride such a gifted horse. He will buck, that’s his spirit, he’s a warrior. His spirit is his love for his people.”#khalidmuhammad #malcolmx #fredhampton #bobbyhemmitt #blackpower #marcusgarvey #elijahmuhammad #blackexcellence #panafrican #blacklove #louisfarrakhan #assatashakur #angeladavis #hueypnewton #dramoswilson #blackhistory #panafricanism #drfrancescresswelsing #blacklivesmatter #malcomx #shahrazadali #farrakhan #muhammadali #thomassankara #georgefloyd #blackconsciousness #blackrevolutionary #neelyfullerjr #drmalachizyork #drkhalidmuhammad
