minister farrakhan books: In the Name of Elijah Muhammad Mattias Gardell, 1996-10-07 In the Name of Elijah Muhammad tells the story of the Nation of Islam—its rise in northern inner-city ghettos during the Great Depression through its decline following the death of Elijah Muhammad in 1975 to its rejuvenation under the leadership of Louis Farrakhan. Mattias Gardell sets this story within the context of African American social history, the legacy of black nationalism, and the long but hidden Islamic presence in North America. He presents with insight and balance a detailed view of one of the most controversial yet least explored organizations in the United States—and its current leader. Beginning with Master Farad Muhammad, believed to be God in Person, Gardell examines the origins of the Nation. His research on the period of Elijah Muhammad’s long leadership draws on previously unreleased FBI files that reveal a clear picture of the bureau’s attempts to neutralize the Nation of Islam. In addition, they shed new light on the circumstances surrounding the murder of Malcolm X. With the main part of the book focused on the fortunes of the Nation after Elijah Muhammad’s death, Gardell then turns to the figure of Minister Farrakhan. From his emergence as the dominant voice of the radical black Islamic community to his leadership of the Million Man March, Farrakhan has often been portrayed as a demagogue, bigot, racist, and anti-Semite. Gardell balances the media’s view of the Nation and Farrakhan with the Nation’s own views and with the perspectives of the black community in which the organization actively works. His investigation, based on field research, taped lectures, and interviews, leads to the fullest account yet of the Nation of Islam’s ideology and theology, and its complicated relations with mainstream Islam, the black church, the Jewish community, extremist white nationalists, and the urban culture of black American youth, particularly the hip-hop movement and gangs. |

minister farrakhan books: Prophet Of Rage Arthur Magida, 1997-05-29 He preaches a dynamic message of African-American empowerment and self-reliance, offering discipline and hope to those most in need. At the same time, he outrages mainstream America with his fiery rhetoric and unrestrained criticism of whites, Jews, and Catholics, whom he blames for the ongoing oppression of blacks. He is the Reverend Louis Farrakhan, leader of the Nation of Islam, and his voice shakes the nation.Prophet of Rage penetrates the rhetoric that surrounds this enigmatic figure to reveal his personal story, tracing his life from his birth as Eugene Walcott in the Bronx through his childhood in Boston's Roxbury neighborhood, his training as a classical violinist, and his career as a calypso singer. It then follows his remarkable political career, recounting his indoctrination into the Nation of Islam, during which time he took the name “Louis X”; explaining his involvement with the assassination of Malcolm X; and chronicling his rise to power as a powerful orator, political leader, and self-proclaimed prophet. |

minister farrakhan books: Little X Sonsyrea Tate, 1997 In Little X, Sonsyrea Tate reveals, through the acute vision and engaging voice of a curious child, the practices and policies of the mysterious organization most know only through media portrayals of its controversial leaders Elijah Muhammad, Malcolm X, and Louis Farrakhan. First published in 1997, Little X chronicles the multigenerational experience of Tate's family, who broke from the traditional black church in the 1950s to join the radical Nation of Islam, then struggled to remain intact through disillusionment, shifting loyalties, and forays into Orthodox Islam. Little X is also an absorbing story of a little girl whose strict Muslim education filled her with pride, confidence, and a longing for freedom, of a teenager in an ankle-length dress and headwrap struggling to fit in with non-Muslim peers, and of a young woman whose growing disillusionment with the Nation finally led to her break with the Muslim religion. Little X offers a rare glimpse into the everyday experience of the Nation of Islam, and into a little-understood part of America's history and heritage. Sonsyrea Tate-Montgomery has been a staff writer for the Virginian Pilot, Chicago Tribune, and the Washington Post. The recipient of four coveted Echoes of Excellence awards from the National Association of Black Journalists, Tate has also worked as assistant to Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton. She currently works as a political reporter for The Gazette, a Post-Newsweek publication. |

minister farrakhan books: The Messenger Karl Evanzz, 2001-01-09 Drawn from recently declassified FBI files, and interviews with family members and former apostles, The Messenger renders a daring portrait of one of African-American history's most controversial leaders. In this explosive biography, investigative journalist Karl Evanzz recounts the multidimensional life of a semiliterate refugee from the Jim Crow South who became the influential founder of the Nation of Islam. Considered the Prophet by his followers and a threat to national security by J. Edgar Hoover, Elijah Muhammad moved four million African Americans to convert to his heterodox version of Islam, and inspired the lives of Malcolm X, Muhammad Ali, Jesse Jackson, and Louis Farrakhan. But his increasingly insatiable hunger for power ultimately led Elijah Muhammad down a path of corruption, ultimately betraying his teachings and his devoted believers by womanizing, fathering thirteen illegitimate children, and abetting in the murders of those who criticized him, not least of whom, his chief disciple, Malcolm X. |

minister farrakhan books: Message to the Blackman in America Elijah Muhammad, 1973-11-07 According to countless mainstream news organs, Elijah Muhammad, by far, was the most powerful black man in America.

minister farrakhan books: UFOs and the Nation of Islam Ilia Rashad Muhammad, 2013-09-17 UFOs were identified and answered before the public had any concerns or questions about them! This research puts forth challenging arguments that offer substantial proof and documented evidence regarding the Nation of Islam's (NOI) inherent relationship to the modern UFO phenomena. This compendium of data answers what academics, researchers, and even UFOlogists have deliberately avoided. How did the Honorable Elijah Muhammad know so much about UFOs before there were any public concerns or investigations? Why did the U.S. Government arrest him after they encountered a huge circular UFO in 1942? How is it that Elijah Muhammad and Minister Louis Farrakhan have boldly challenged the world to disprove their connection to these wheel-like crafts and no one has challenged them? UFOS AND THE NATION OF ISLAM addresses these and several more questions about the UFO Phenomenon that other researchers cannot answer with verity. Unlike other researchers, theorists, pundits, and skeptics, this book uses the most reliable primary sources regarding this topic-sources that others have deliberately omitted. With over 450 footnotes for ease of verification, this book challenges and debunks common misperceptions about UFOs, leaving no room for even the staunchest critics to doubt. While scientific, religious, and educational schools of thought are afraid to publicly address the UFO phenomenon at its core, this research demystifies and exposes the propaganda, the pundits, and virtually all major UFO related publications that disregard the most reliable and authoritative source on this topic-the Nation of Islam. The UFO cover-up is not simply to hide the fact that such objects exist; instead, the cover-up is to prevent the public from knowing the source of power behind these crafts. |

minister farrakhan books: A History of the Nation of Islam Dawn-Marie Gibson, 2012-04-23 This book provides a fascinating, unparalleled look at the Nation of Islam, including its history, the complexity of its views towards orthodox Muslims, women, and other minorities, and the trajectory of the group after the 1995 Million Man March. The release of the Federal Bureau of Investigation's extensive archive of surveillance files, interviews, and firsthand accounts has made it possible to reveal the truth behind the myths and misperceptions about the Nation of Islam. This comprehensive resource catalogues the times, places, and people that shaped the philosophies from its formative years through to its present incarnation. The definitive source on the subject, A History of The Nation of Islam: Race, Islam, and the Quest for Freedom draws on over a dozen interviews, along with archival and rarely-used sources. The book departs from the usual Malcolm X-centric treatment of the subject, and instead examines the early leadership of Fard Muhammad, challenges conventional views on Malcolm X, and explores the present day internal politics of the movement post Louis Farrakhan's retirement. |

Yes, for the first time we have character witness testimonies giving birth to a new picture; a clearer picture; a true picture of Minister Farrakhan that puts his heroic and principled leadership on display.This record and thoroughly documented source-book exists as a seminal work and is a tribute to the divine intervention that must be credited with helping The Minister to escape and overcome a prison of public opinion-the vestiges of which are still extant.
