Because of slavery in America, separations occurred; fathers from families, mothers from daughters and sons -- Beatings, killings, tortures. Life for the Black man in America was suffering, shame and death.
The Emancipation Proclamation, after the Civil War brought about the Black man becoming a WILLING servant or slave for his former slavemaster, NOT a return to his name, language, country or God.
The Black man in America truly fitted the people described in Genesis Chapter 15:13:
%26quot;And He said unto Abraham, know of a surety that thy seed shall be a stranger in a land that is not theirs. And they shall serve them and they shall afflict them 400 years. And also that Nation whom they shall serve will I judge and afterwards shall they come out with great substance.%26quot;
After the Civil War, the Black began calling himself in the names of his slave master. Practicing the religion of the slavemaster, speaking the language of the slavemaster. He was given nothing by the slavemaster to go for self.
Slavery, suffering and death was, now, the lifestyle for the Blackman of America, now called; *****, ******, coon, pickininny, shine, boy, uncle, etc...
There was work from sun up to sun up. No pay! or very little pay. More suffering, more misery, and more death!
Those in the KKK and those out of the KKK kill the Black man for nothing other than the color of his skin being Black. Torturing and killing the Black man was a pleasurable thing --A SPORT--for the white man.
The Black man called our for relief. The Black man prayed to the mystery God for relief from his pain, misery, suffering, shame and death, but no relief came.
The NAACP was organized in the early 1900%26#039;s by a group of whites and blacks but still no relief for the Black man.
The Black man took up arms to fight for America in World War I, as he did in the Spanish-American War and the Civil War but, still, no relief for the Black man.
More lynchings and burnings. More work and no pay -- still no relief for the Black man.
In the 1920%26#039;s, Marcus Garvey organized the Universal ***** Improvement Association (UNIA), which attempted to instill Black pride and to return Blacks to Africa. Garvey was jailed and deported. No relief for the Black man.
Now the Black man hated himself. He hated his color. He hated being Black or even being called Black. He joked:
%26quot;If you%26#039;re white, you%26#039;re right; if you%26#039;re yellow, you%26#039;re mellow; if you%26#039;re brown, stick around; but if you%26#039;re Black, GET BACK!%26quot;
He began calling himself anything but Black; names such as: olive-colored, creole, bronze, chocolate, tan, Indian. He had no money, no clothing, nor even a home.
The Great Depression of 1929 arrived. Blacks lived, mainly in the South doing sharecropping, land-renting or even in bonded slavery. Some migrated to the North to seek improvement as janitors, porters, maids, cooks, mammies, mail carriers, street cleaners and to face even more slavery, suffering and death, as the brothers in the South.
No relief to their cries or prayers for justice until about 1930, when a man --A Saviour-Master W.D. Fard, began teaching and searching among Blacks in Detroit, Michigan for a man of the Black condition and experience to LEAD and TEACH the Black man in America and put him on the road to Freedom, Justice, and Equality.
Elijah%26#039;s Coming Foretold in the Bible!
It was written of and foretold by God in Deuteronomy 18:18:
%26quot;I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brotheren, like unto thee and I will put my words in his mouth and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him.%26quot;
As it was prophesied, now it was fulfilled and true.
In Malachi 4:2
%26quot;Behold I will send you ELIJAH - The Prophet - just before the coming of the Great and Dreadful day of the Lord, and he shall turn the hearts of the fathers to the children and children%26#039;s hearts to their father less I smite the Earth with a curse.%26quot;
Our Leader and Teacher, The Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad, The Last and Greatest Messenger of Allah, Who came in the Person of Master Fard Muhammad was born the second week of October, 1897 to William and Marie, who went in the name of their former slavemaster-Poole. They lived in an area near Sandersville, Georgia and Desoto, Georgia, which is about five miles into the woods, in a community known as Bold Springs, GA. Bold Springs was a 100 militia district of Washington County, Georgia.
The Messenger%26#039;s father, at that time, was a Baptist preacher and taught sometimes in his church. He sharecropped to earn money for his family, as a farmer.
The parents loved their children --eight sons and five daughters. But one son --ELIJAH-- even as a child was unusually different. He had a yearn for learning. He studied ways of nature. He would study the Bible and would practice on his Brothers and Sisters as a preacher. He was destined for the future.
In the back of the church his father preached in, is a family cemetery.
The family of Messenger Elijah Muhammad moved to Cordell, Georgia about the time when he was about six years old. There, the Honorable Elijah Muhammad worked in the fields, along with his brothers and sisters, planting and plowing behind a mule; reaping and harvesting, picking, planting and chopping crop.
Schooling was not a required thing for Elijah and the other Blacks in the South, only work, day and night -- night and day.
The family of our Leader and Teacher, moved to Cordell in the early 1900%26#039;s, in an area known as Winona, about five miles south of Cordell.
The Messenger%26#039;s family was very poor. They lived across the road from the train depot, where one train a day passed through, which they called: %26#039;The shoe-fly:.
Messenger Elijah Muhammad would walk down what was called: The Rock House Road: to visit Sister Clara Muhammad.
The Messenger and his family attended Zion Hope Baptist Church, which was located on old Highway 41 below Winona.
Messenger Elijah Muhammad met Sister Clara Muhammad, one of three daughters and two sons of the Evans family, in about 1915 at a church meeting house in the country.
Sister Clara Muhammad, the Messenger%26#039;s one and only wife, was born in Houston, County just outside of Unadilla, Georgia. Her father always rented land.
Sister Clara Muhammad%26#039;s sister, Rose, remembers the Messenger always coming to their house on a Sunday afternoon, just after church; around 6:00 pm; leaving around 9:00 pm because he had to work in the fields the next day. He always visited wearing a blue suit and tie, but never a hat. But he did wear a straw hat when plowing.
After two years of courtship, they were married (eloped) on May 2, 1917. Sister Clara%26#039;s father was furious because of their elopement. They lived in a rented room. Their first son, Emanuel was born February 3, 1921 in Sister Clara Muhammad%26#039;s parents home, as the Messenger left, going to Macon, GA, seeking better employment and higher wages to support his family.
The Messenger sent for his wife and their 1-1/2 month old son, to join him in Macon, Georgia, where he worked for the Cherokee Brick and Tile Company, as a section hand and for the Southern Railroad and other jobs.
At all of his jobs, his co-workers, themselves, chose him to be their spokesman or his employer chose him to supervise others.
Blacks were poor and suffering with no jobs or jobs with very little pay. The beatings, lynchings and tortures of Black people was a frequent and seemingly legal affair.
Segregation was a way of life. Some Blacks tried to escape by changing their color, using bleaching cream on their skin to lighten it and using lye, other chemicals and hot combs to straighten their hair.
Our Leader, Messenger Elijah Muhammad moved to Detroit, Michigan. There he worked at American Canning Factory, and Chevrolet and other places. Almost always being chosen by his co-workers or employers as a Leader of men -- to be foreman or supervisor.
He was always kind and considerate and concerned for his fellow brothers.
Blacks were still suffering all over America.
The Poole family, as our leader did not, yet, have the knowledge of his self, nor God, and was yet going in the slavemaster%26#039;s name. They were living at 8474 Manhattan Street in Hamtramck, an area surrounded by Detroit, Michigan with an outside toilet.
Why do people call Elijah Muhammad A Raciest for telling blacks to STOP WORSHIPING A MYSTERY SOOK GOD?
Because he was. One of the worst.
Let’s hear what this racist %26quot;prophet%26quot; says about white people:
“The Yakub made devils were really pale white, with really blue eyes; which we think are the ugliest of colors for a human eye. They were called Caucasian.”
According to Elijah Muhammad, this %26quot;Yakub%26quot; was a black scientist that created the white race in a laboratory by separating one of his own black germs; hence, all white people came from a black man.
Elijah adds,
“The black nation is only fooling themselves to take the Caucasian race otherwise. This is what Jesus learned to their history, before He gave up His work of trying to convert the Jews or white race to the religion of Islam. The Holy Quran (Surah 49:13-15) throws a great light on the truth of the creation of this pale, white race of devils. Black people have a heart of gold, love and mercy. Such a heart, nature did not give to the white race.”
Wow! This is religious science-fiction at it’s best folks. Makes Scientology look almost sane by comparison!!
Reply:I ASSURE YOU the ones spoken of in GENESIS
WAS NOT AND WILL NEVER BE AN AFRICAN DESCENTED AMERICAN
that was the JEWS that was in slavery to EGYPT
and if HIS NAME is Elijah Muhammed
HE ISNT ALL AFRICAN EITHER !!!
and ELIJAH the prophet the forerunner of CHRIST was
JOHN THE BAPTIST as it is written in GODS WORD
Reply:Frankly, I don%26#039;t understand the NOI as a whole and can%26#039;t see the logic it claims to offer. BUT I can be tolerant (i.e. respectful) and not understand at the same time. To me it does seem pretty racist to have a religion that only has black people and no other colors. Regliion isn%26#039;t about color. It%26#039;s about God. Seems that concept is lost in this case.
Reply:Elijah Muhammad taught that Whites were evil. In the 1950s I%26#039;m sure this was true overall, but times have changed. Racism is still a major issue in many societies, and it%26#039;s true that Blacks are still unrepresented minorities due to slavery, but preaching that all whites are evil is a bit extreme, don%26#039;t you think?
