Well in regards to the Rev. Farrakan someone sent me this:
"A little history:
The guy is horrible. Even the Nation of Islam, formerly the Allah temple of islam (ati), and built on the moorish science temple of america (msta) is built on hate. The msta introduced elements of Islam and foretold the destruction of whites with Timothy Drew (Noble Drew Ali) as their prophet. David Fard (Wallace D. Fard), the head of ati, was condemned to a psychiatric ward after horrifying detroit officials with a ritual massacre. Conditional on his release from the ward was that he shut down the ati - instead he lied and changed the name to the nation of islam. His disciple, Elijah Muhammad, tried to take control of the noi but met opposition (they were going to kill him) and fled to the east coast preaching hate for whites. Muhammad loved to milk the noi for money (he wore a $150k jewel studded fez) and invited the head of the American Nazi party, George Rockwell, to his convention to get an endorsement (which he did). Muhammad's son said that his father had "been worshipped as the final prophet of God for so long that he had convinced himself that it was true." His successors were to be either his son, Farrakhan, or Malcolm X (who many believe was assasinated by Farrakhan). His son wallace took over and changed the group by selling assets, moving more towards islam, and dismantling the fruit of islam (so called "bodyguards"). Farrakhan, not liking the changes, created a new noi. Ever since Farrakhan has preached a message of hate against whites and a truly anti-semitic message. He did leave the noi but if you go to noi.org you will notice his name plastered all over indicating he is back.
Oh and here's the science fiction aspect of noi:
Blacks came into existence 78 trillion years ago, and through the eons they lived an advanced and righteous life. But their paradise ceased 6,000 years ago when a deviant black savant named Mr. Yakub, also known as "the big head scientist," rebelled against the black gods and set about creating the white race. When blacks learned what Mr. Yakub was doing, they exiled him to an island in the Aegean Sea, but he was able to continue his work and within 600 years had succeeded in bringing the white race into existence, with a mandate to reign over blacks for six millennia.
Yet according to most blacks, Farrakhan is prominent, the noi preaches that blacks should not drink or use drugs, and so Farrakhan must be a great man. He already is on record with congress for being a hate monger and is banned from Britain, but that adds even more to his attraction."
I'd have to say that as far as my particular definition of racist goes that would fit the bill.
