Louis Farrakhan’s Nation of Islam, an unabashedly anti-Semitic group, has been banned from Twitter &#8212; but not for hatred against Jewish people.
The final straw for Twitter came when the Nation of Islam criticized vaccines, The Federalist <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2021/07/26/twitter-suspends-nation-of-islam-for-attacking-vaccines-but-not-attacking-jews/">reported</a>. Prior to that, however, the social media giant had repeatedly declined to ban or punish Farrakhan’s personal account or that of the Nation of Islam despite blatant harassment and anti-Semitism.
“Twitter moved to ban the <a href="https://twitter.com/OfficialNOI">account</a> last week after being targeted for promoting ‘misinformation.’ In reaction to the ban, a high-ranking member in the group <a href="https://twitter.com/BrotherQiyam/status/1417272961971728385?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1417272961971728385%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fsandrarose.com%2F2021%2F07%2Ftwitter-bans-nation-of-islam-for-criticizing-covid-19-vaccines%2F">tweeted</a>, ‘Unsurprisingly, Twitter, Inc. has suspended The Nation of Islam’s official account: @OfficialNOI,’” The Federalist reported. “A <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/jul/17/covid-misinformation-conspiracy-theories-ccdh-report">report</a> cited by the White House this month said that 12 Twitter accounts are responsible for 65 percent of supposed anti-vaccine content. One of the 12 listed was Rizza Islam, a Nation of Islam member. While Twitter took action against the group after perpetual mRNA vaccines criticism, it remained silent on its previous anti-semitism.”
The Twitter ban comes after the account was allowed to operate for a decade spreading anti-Semitic messages. In 2018, for example, Farrakhan said “the powerful Jews are my enemy” during a speech, adding, “white folks are going down. And Satan is going down. And Farrakhan, by God’s grace, has pulled the cover off of that Satanic Jew and I’m here to say your time is up, your world is through.”
That clip wasn’t shared to Twitter, but that same year, Farrakhan tweeted a clip of another speech where he compared Jews to termites. He captioned that video: “I’m not an anti-Semite. I’m anti-Termite.”
As The Federalist reported, Twitter has a policy against “dehumanizing” tweets but told BuzzFeed News at the time that Farrakhan’s account had posted that tweet before the policy went into place, so it could remain. And even though the Nation of Islam’s account was banned, Farrakhan’s account is still active.
Many attribute Twitter’s blind eye toward Farrakhan’s messages over the years to his Democratic support. Though many Democrats have since distanced themselves from Farrakhan within the last decade, they previously supported him publicly. House Majority Whip James Clyburn (D-SC), for example, joined Farrakhan on stage in 2011. In 2013, Sen. Raphael Warnock (D-GA) <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/warnock-praised-farrakhans-nation-of-islam-in-2013-an-important-voice">said</a> the Nation of Islam’s “voice has been important even for the development of Black theology.”
Warnock made the comments in response to an audience member’s question about the Baptist Church’s “relationship with the Nation of Islam and the Islamic movement.” Warnock, who was then the senior pastor of Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta, replied: “Well, the Nation of Islam is significant, but its numbers don’t come anywhere near the membership of our churches. Its voice has been important, and its voice has been important even for the development of black theology. Because it was the Black Muslims who challenged black preachers and said you’re promulgating, you know, they called, ‘the white man’s religion. And that’s a slave religion; you’re telling people to focus on heaven meanwhile they’re catching hell.’”
“And so we’ve needed the witness of the Nation of Islam, in a real sense, to put a fire under us and keep us honest about the meaning of the proclamation coming from our pulpit,” Warnock added.

As soon as media outlets and Leftists learned the identity of the suspect in Friday’s attack on U.S. Capitol Police, they quickly pivoted to discussing gun control rather than continuing their narrative that “white supremacy” was behind the attack.
As The Daily Wire previously <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/breaking-capitol-attack-suspect-identified-claimed-to-be-follower-of-farrakhan-admired-malcolm-x">reported</a> 25-year-old Noah Green, an African-American man who was a follower of Louis Farrakahn’s Nation of Islam, rammed two U.S. Capitol Police officers before getting out of his vehicle with a knife. Police shot and killed Green. One police officer, Billiy Evans, <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/capitol-police-identifies-officer-killed-following-car-attack">was killed</a> in the attack.
Green’s Facebook page, which has since been deleted, described himself as a “follower of Farrakhan,” The Daily Wire reported. From The Daily Wire:
<blockquote>Long posts detailed Green’s life struggles and religious views, which include his belief that Farrakhan is Jesus. “I am currently now unemployed after I left my job partly due to afflictions, but ultimately, in search of a spiritual journey,” he wrote in part.
“I haven’t had much to lean on in the past few months,” Green continued. “I’ve been faced with fear, hunger, loss of wealth, and diminution of fruit. My faith is one of the only things that has been able to carry me through these times and my faith is centered on the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan as Jesus, the Messiah, the final divine reminder in our midst.”
Green went on to describe Farrakhan as his “spiritual father,” without whose guidance he would have “been unable to continue.”
He signed his post as Noah X.</blockquote>
As The Daily Wire’s Ian Haworth reported on Saturday, numerous verified Twitter accounts initially <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/twitter-blue-checks-rush-to-assume-capitol-attack-suspect-was-a-white-trump-supporter-theres-just-one-problem">rushed to assume</a> the attack was carried out by a white supporter of former President Donald Trump. Once the suspect’s identity was released, many of these same people <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/ilhan-omar-other-leftists-distract-from-capitol-attack-by-focusing-on-gun-control-and-racism">started</a> talking about gun control and alleged systemic racism, allowing the Capitol attack to disappear from the news cycle.
The same tactic was used by the Left after a shooting at a grocery store in Boulder, Colorado, which left 10 people dead, including a police officer. As The Daily Wire previously <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/media-activists-assumed-colorado-shooter-was-white-delete-posts-pivot-when-his-identity-revealed">reported</a> at the time, numerous verified Twitter accounts reported, without evidence, that the shooter must be a “white supremacist” before deleting their tweets when the shooter’s identity was revealed. In that case, the shooter was shown to be of Syrian descent but who spent most of his life in the United States. The shooter in that case was previously “known to the FBI,” though the motive behind the shooting appears to have more to do with mental illness than anything else.
Just as with the recent Capitol attack, media outlets and Democrats shifted the narrative to discuss gun-control measures instead of the attack itself.
Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), for example tweeted that the “death toll would have been worse if the assailant had an AR-15 instead of a knife,” a bizarre attempt to push gun control.

Media Quickly Moves On From Man Who Killed Capitol Police Officer After Learning He Supported Louis Farrakhan

Capitol Police

Media Bias

Facebook quickly removed the profile page of a self-described &#8220;follower of Farrakhan&#8221; shortly after media identified him Friday as the assailant who was shot dead after driving into U.S. Capitol Police officers and lunging at them with a knife.
Describing himself on the since-deleted page as a follower of the Nation of Islam, the 25-year-old African American man from Indiana (name here removed per Daily Wire policy) effusively praised the radical Farrakhan and his predecessor, Elijah Muhammad, as incarnations of Jesus Christ whose teachings changed his life.
Explaining the social media&#8217;s company&#8217;s reason for the deletion, a spokesperson for Facebook told The Daily Wire: “After this horrific event, our thoughts are with the Capitol Police and their loved ones. We have designated the incident under our <a href="https://www.facebook.com/communitystandards/dangerous_individuals_organizations" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Dangerous Individuals and Organizations policy</a>, which means we have removed the suspect’s accounts from Facebook and Instagram, and are removing any content that praises, supports, or represents the attack or the suspect. We are in contact with law enforcement as they conduct their investigation.&#8221;
According to the policy the spokesperson cited, Facebook does not allow anyone, living or dead, to maintain a presence on the platform if they are a mass murderer or if they attempt mass murder. &#8220;We consider an attempted mass murder to be one where an individual uses a weapon or vehicle to attempt mass harm in a public space or against more than one person,&#8221; the policy says.
As The Daily Wire <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/breaking-capitol-attack-suspect-identified-claimed-to-be-follower-of-farrakhan-admired-malcolm-x" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">noted</a>, MSNBC’s Jesse Rodriguez tweeted reporting from NBC’s Pete Williams about the suspect&#8217;s identity at 3:43 p.m. Journalists Ian Miles Cheong and Andy Ngo scoured the suspect&#8217;s Facebook page almost immediately, taking screenshots and posting them to Twitter until 4:15 p.m., by which time Cheong reported that the page was gone. &#8220;Facebook just confirmed the identity of [the suspect] by yeeting his page,&#8221; Cheong <a href="https://twitter.com/stillgray/status/1378078621189898242?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1378078621189898242%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Feditorial.dailywire.com%2Fwp-admin%2Fpost.php%3Fpost%3D206645action%3Dedit">wrote</a>. &#8220;It&#8217;s gone.&#8221;
To &#8220;yeet&#8221; something is a slang term that means &#8220;to discard an item at high velocity,&#8221; according to <a href="https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Yeet" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Urban Dictionary</a>.
At 4:16 p.m., Ngo <a href="https://twitter.com/MrAndyNgo/status/1378078989663748096?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1378078989663748096%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Feditorial.dailywire.com%2Fwp-admin%2Fpost.php%3Fpost%3D206645action%3Dedit">tweeted</a> the same observation, writing, &#8220;I only had seconds to look at [the suspect&#8217;s] Facebook page before it was deleted. He was living in Norfolk, Va. From what I saw, many of his posts were of a religious (Islamic) nature. He appeared to be a deeply devout follower of the Nation of Islam.&#8221;
The suspect&#8217;s Facebook was replete with posts detailing how he was struggling in life and how the radical views taught by the Nation of Islam had helped him. As The Daily Wire <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/breaking-capitol-attack-suspect-identified-claimed-to-be-follower-of-farrakhan-admired-malcolm-x" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">reported</a>:

My faith is one of the only things that has been able to carry me through these times and my faith is centered on the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan as Jesus, the Messiah, the final divine reminder in our midst.”
He went on to describe Farrakhan as his “spiritual father,” without whose guidance he would have “been unable to continue.”
In another post, he encouraged his readers to study the Book of Revelation regarding signs of the end times. “[S]tudy who the beast is, study who the anti-Christ is, study who the false prophet is, and study the created images during these times.”
“The Minister is here to save me and the rest of humanity, even it means facing death,” he continued. “Be willing to deny yourself and follow him, pick up your cross.”
He died on Good Friday.</blockquote>
Metropolitan Police Chief Robert Contee said in a press conference Friday afternoon, before reports emerged identifying the suspect, that the attack did not appear terrorism-related. Contee emphasized that officials would “continue to investigate to see if there’s some type of nexus along those lines.”

The deceased assailant who rammed two U.S. Capitol Police officers Friday and emerged from his car wielding a knife before police shot him has been identified as a 25-year-old African American man from Indiana who believed Louis Farrakhan is an incarnation of Jesus Christ.
NBC&#8217;s Pete Williams reported Friday that Capitol Police identified the suspect as a 25-year-old man from Indiana who may have lived in Virginia (suspect&#8217;s name has been removed per Daily Wire policy). &#8220;On his Facebook page, he notes that he is a follower of the Nation of Islam,&#8221; <a href="https://twitter.com/JesseRodriguez/status/1378070564645052416?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1378070564645052416%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Feditorial.dailywire.com%2Fwp-admin%2Fpost.php%3Fpost%3D206607action%3Dedit">tweeted</a> MSNBC&#8217;s Jesse Rodriguez, citing Williams&#8217; reporting. &#8220;Suspect is now dead.&#8221;

Friday&#8217;s incident on Capitol Hill led not only to the suspect&#8217;s death, but also the death of U.S. Capitol Police Officer William Evans. Another officer was injured. Metropolitan Police Chief Robert Contee said in a press conference Friday afternoon, before reports emerged identifying the suspect, that the attack did not appear terrorism-related. Contee emphasized officials would &#8220;continue to investigate to see if there&#8217;s some type of nexus along those lines.&#8221;
“It is a with a very, very heavy heart that I announce one of our officers has succumbed to his injuries,” said Acting U.S. Capitol Chief Yogananda Pittman during a press briefing before Evans was identified. “We are not able to release any information, names, age, date of birth, or anything of that nature at this time, because we still have to notify the next of kin.”
“This has been an extremely difficult time,” said Pittman, citing the events of January 6 as well as the car attack. She also asked that the public keep the U.S. Capitol Police in their prayers.

Capitol Shooting

Capitol Attack Suspect Identified; Claimed To Be ‘Follower Of Farrakhan,’ Admired Malcolm X

US Capitol

Washington D.C.

In 2013, Rev, Raphael Warnock, who is currently running for the U.S. Senate as a Democrat, called the Nation of Islam, which has been headed by anti-Semitic and racist Rev. Louis Farrakhan for decades, an “important” voice for blacks, adding, &#8220;we’ve needed the witness of the Nation of Islam.&#8221;
Warnock was prompted by a member of the audience of the 2013 event who said, “You referred to ‘the church,’ and I realize that there are many churches, but what would you say is the church’s relationship with the Nation of Islam and the Islamic movement that has a growing number of African-American members, and perhaps as a part of that, can you discuss whether the black church is having the same type of attendance problems that the so-called mainstream white churches and synagogues are having, and if so, why or why not?”
Warnock, the senior pastor of Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta since 2005, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a9WHVIzJAHE&amp;feature=youtu.be">replied</a>, “Well, the Nation of Islam is significant, but its numbers don’t come anywhere near the membership of our churches. Its voice has been important, and its voice has been important even for the development of black theology. Because it was the Black Muslims who challenged black preachers and said you’re promulgating, you know, they called, ‘the white man’s religion. And that’s a slave religion; you’re telling people to focus on heaven meanwhile they’re catching hell.’”
“And so we’ve needed the witness of the Nation of Islam, in a real sense, to put a fire under us and keep us honest about the meaning of the proclamation coming from our pulpit,” Warnock stated.
Farrakhan, the leader of the Nation of Islam, has infamously referred to Jews as termites. In 2018 he boasted that he wasn’t an anti-Semite, but “anti-termite,” calling the Jewish community and the white community “stupid.” He declared:
<blockquote>White folk don’t like Farrakhan. Some of them respect me, but those who have been our deceivers, they can’t stand me. I’m not mad with you. In fact, to the members of the Jewish community that don’t like me, thank you very much for putting my name all over the planet. Because of your fear of what we represent, I can go anywhere in the world and they’ve heard of Farrakhan. Thank you very much. I’m not mad at you, ‘cuz you’re so stupid.</blockquote>
Farrakhan claimed he didn’t hate anyone because of their religious preference, snapping, “So when they talk about Farrakhan, call me a hater, you know what they do, call me an anti-Semite, stop it. I’m anti-termite.”
Farrakhan has <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/29609/watch-louis-farrakhan-gives-insane-lecture-linking-amanda-prestigiacomo">likened</a> the Jewish Star of David to sexual immorality. He has <a href="https://twitter.com/LouisFarrakhan/status/971437371328749569?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E971437371328749569&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.dailywire.com%2Fnews%2F28343%2Ftwitter-hosts-womens-march-leader-who-supports-hank-berrien">claimed</a> the Jews run government agencies, asserting, &#8220;They [Israel and Jews] have been working for years to control your representatives in Congress, in the Senate, in the House of Representatives. They don&#8217;t fear America because they control it from within.&#8221; He announced he was here to <a href="https://clarionproject.org/louis-farrakhan-denounces-jews-at-nation-of-islam-event/">announce</a> the “end of your time” for Jews, and suggested <a href="https://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/minister-louis-farrakhan-in-his-own-words">Jews were responsible for the 9/11 attacks</a>, saying, &#8220;It is now becoming apparent that there were many Israelis and Zionist Jews in key roles in the 9/11 attacks. Israelis had foreknowledge of the attacks &#8230; we know that many Jews received a text message not to come to work on September 11.&#8221; Farrakhan has <a href="https://www.sfgate.com/news/article/PAGE-ONE-WASHINGTON-Farrakhan-Swipes-Again-3022315.php">called</a> Judaism a “gutter religion.”
Farrakhan made nefarious statements prior to Warnock&#8217;s 2013 speech. As far back as 1997, Farrakhan <a href="https://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/minister-louis-farrakhan-in-his-own-words">stated</a> on “Meet The Press,” &#8220;I believe that for the small numbers of Jewish people in the United States, they exercise a tremendous amount of influence on the affairs of government&#8230;Yes, they exercise extraordinary control, and Black people will never be free in this country until they are free of that kind of control&#8230;&#8221;
Prior to that, in his Saviour’s Day Speech in February 1996, <a href="https://www.splcenter.org/fighting-hate/extremist-files/individual/louis-farrakhan">Farrakhan ranted about Jews</a>, “And you do with me as is written, but remember that I have warned you that Allah will punish you. You are wicked deceivers of the American people. You have sucked their blood. You are not real Jews, those of you that are not real Jews. You are the synagogue of Satan, and you have wrapped your tentacles around the U.S. government, and you are deceiving and sending this nation to hell. But I warn you in the name of Allah, you would be wise to leave me alone. But if you choose to crucify me, know that Allah will crucify you.&#8221;
Six years before that, in his 1990 Saviour’s Day Speech, Farrakhan raged, “The Jews, a small handful, control the movement of this great nation, like a radar controls the movement of a great ship in the waters. … The Jews got a stranglehold on the Congress.&#8221;

Warnock Praised Farrakhan’s Nation Of Islam In 2013: An ‘Important’ Voice

Anti-Semitism

With the resurgence of anti-Semitism and unabashed racism toward whites being promoted by some famous <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/understand-what-evil-truly-is-holocaust-survivor-urges-eagles-star-desean-jackson-to-visit-nazi-death-camps-after-anti-semitic-quote">athletes</a> and <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/we-are-for-our-people-first-diddy-defends-nick-cannon-invites-him-to-join-truly-black-owned-revolt-tv">celebrities</a>, it’s impossible to ignore Louis Farrakhan&#8217;s corrosive influence. His particular brand of racism and black separatism has been around for more than half a century and continues to have tremendous influence in some leftist circles, as demonstrated by the likes of Nick Cannon and the NBA’s <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/2020/07/08/stephen-jackson-says-desean-jackson-is-speaking-truth-adds-anti-semitic-claims-his-own/">Stephen Jackson</a>.
Farrakhan’s racism is no different than the likes of David Duke, the former grand wizard of the Ku Klux Klan, who desperately tried to sanitize his past while still holding to his pathetic, racist views. Duke, however, has been marginalized for decades. His relevancy today is non-existent. Farrakhan, on the other hand, seems to be gaining even greater prominence and notoriety amid the recent <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/khan-5-radical-goals-of-the-black-lives-matter-organization-the-media-ignores">Black Lives Matter</a> protests that erupted all over the nation.
As the <a href="https://www.nationalreview.com/2020/07/farrakhans-influence-remains-a-problem/">National Review</a>&#8216;s Jonathan S. Tobin rightly points out:
<blockquote>Farrakhan’s views are as hateful as those of, say, Klan leader David Duke, and he has many more followers and a much wider sphere of influence than Duke. Yet Duke is rightly ostracized across the political spectrum, while Farrakhan remains welcome on the left.</blockquote>
Farrakhan’s views are as strange and vile as they come. Here are just a few quotes from the man highlighted by the <a href="https://www.adl.org/education/resources/reports/nation-of-islam-farrakhan-in-his-own-words">Anti-Defamation League</a>: 
<blockquote>“Those who call themselves ‘Jews,’ who are not really Jews, but are in fact Satan: You should learn to call them by their real name, ‘Satan;’ you are coming face-to-face with Satan, the Arch Deceiver, the enemy of God and the enemy of the Righteous.” — Saviours’ Day speech (part 2), 2/26/17
“I don’t care what they put on me. The government is my enemy, the powerful Jews are my enemy.” — Saviours’ Day speech, 2/25/18</blockquote>
It’s worth noting that the teachings of the Nation of Islam that Farrakhan espouses include the belief that white people were created by accident some 6,000 years ago by a mad scientist named Yakub, according to <a href="http://www.finalcall.com/artman/publish/Perspectives_1/article_9878.shtml">The Final Call</a>, NOI’s official newspaper founded by Louis Farrakhan:
<blockquote>…White man first appeared 6,000 years ago on the Island of Patmos (or Pelan), in the Aegean Sea, where they had been “made” by a 600-year process of selective breeding called “grafting.” Under the command of a Black scientist named Yakub, the 59,999 Blacks who came with Yakub to the island were placed under a system of mating that was based on skin color, in which only lighter-complexioned babies were allowed to survive.</blockquote>
Also, it seems that some continue to conflate Farrakhan and the Nation of Islam with Malcolm X. They view Farrakhan as following in the same spirit as his predecessor. Nothing could be further from the truth.
While Malcolm X was the Nation of Islam’s most prominent, charismatic member at one point, he, ultimately, <a href="https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smithsonian-institution/it-time-reassessment-malcolm-x-180968247/">abandoned the hate-filled rhetoric</a> and arcane theological positions held by the Nation of Islam in favor of solidarity and self-empowerment. Lauded black scholar Professor Walter E. Williams even argues that Malcolm X very much echoed conservative values in an essay for <a href="http://jewishworldreview.com/cols/williams010219.php3">Jewish World Review</a>.
The ominous threats Farrakhan made toward Malcolm X just a few months before his assassination in 1964 are quite disturbing given that <a href="https://time.com/5778688/malcolm-x-assassination/">all three of the gunmen</a> charged in the black leader’s death were from the Nation of Islam. According to the left-wing <a href="https://www.splcenter.org/fighting-hate/extremist-files/individual/louis-farrakhan">Southern Poverty Law Center</a>:
<blockquote>In December 1964, Farrakhan wrote in the NOI publication Muhammad Speaks: “The die is set, and Malcolm shall not escape, especially after such evil foolish talk about his benefactor Elijah Muhammad. … Such a man as Malcolm is worthy of death&#8230;” Two months later, NOI members assassinated Malcolm X…</blockquote>
In 1993, Farrakhan clearly insinuated, in his own words, that the Nation of Islam was involved in Malcolm X’s assassination, according to the <a href="https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/muhammad-ali-nation-of-islam-michael-parkinson-interview-who-were-elijah-muhammad-a7066301.html">Independent</a>: “Was Malcolm your traitor or ours? And if we dealt with him like a nation deals with a traitor, what the hell business is it of yours?”
It’s quite clear that much of the current racism and profound ignorance being championed by the likes of Nick Cannon and others originate with the hate-filled rhetoric of Louis Farrakhan. While he may have the right to say what he will, that it goes largely unchecked by the Left and is now being actively promoted by the likes of Cannon and Jackson in the media spotlight remains deeply troubling.

KHAN: While They’re At It, Can The Left Finally ‘Cancel’ Louis Farrakhan Too Already?

NBA legend Kareem Abdul-Jabbar had a pointed message for celebrities who speak out against racism, but turn a blind eye to anti-Semitism, particularly that of Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan: you must acknowledge all forms of discrimination.
Abdul-Jabbar penned a scathing column in the Hollywood Reporter Wednesday, taking celebrities like Ice Cube, NFL player DeSean Jackson, and, most recently, television star Nick Cannon to task for embracing anti-Semitic conspiracy theories while publicly speaking out about anti-black racism.
According to Abdul-Jabbar, the &#8220;blind eye&#8221; many celebrities and sports figures are turning towards anti-Semitism puts the Black Lives Matter movement as a whole at risk, and those who fail to correct figures like Jackson, who faced only a minor punishment from his team, are allowing discrimination to flourish.
&#8220;Recent incidents of anti-Semitic tweets and posts from sports and entertainment celebrities are a very troubling omen for the future of the Black Lives Matter movement, but so too is the shocking lack of massive indignation,&#8221; Abdul-Jabbar wrote. &#8220;Given the New Woke-fulness in Hollywood and the sports world, we expected more passionate public outrage. What we got was a shrug of meh-rage.&#8221;
“When reading the dark squishy entrails of popular culture, meh-rage in the face of sustained prejudice is an indisputable sign of the coming Apatholypse: apathy to all forms of social justice,” Abdul-Jabbar went on. “After all, if it’s OK to discriminate against one group of people by hauling out cultural stereotypes without much pushback, it must be OK to do the same to others. Illogic begets illogic.”
Among the top offenders, Abdul-Jabbar also lists Chelsea Handler and other white celebrities who recently posted a video from one of Louis Farrakhan&#8217;s speeches as a way of proving they&#8217;d received instruction in how to be better allies to minorities facing oppression.
&#8220;June continued to bust out all over with anti-Semitism when performer Chelsea Handler, herself Jewish, posted videos of Farrakhan to her 3.9 million followers,&#8221; he said. &#8220;That means almost 4 million people received a subliminal message that even some Jews think being anti-Jewish is justified.&#8221;
Abdul-Jabbar does not mention Nick Cannon, likely because Cannon&#8217;s rant, which was both anti-white and anti-Semitic, aired after Abdul-Jabbar had already turned in his column. Regardless, Cannon now finds himself out of a job after ViacomCBS terminated their relationship with the reality television star.
“While we support ongoing education and dialogue in the fight against bigotry, we are deeply troubled that Nick has failed to acknowledge or apologize for perpetuating anti-Semitism, and we are terminating our relationship with him,” Viacom said in a statement. “We are committed to doing better in our response to incidents of anti-Semitism, racism, and bigotry. ViacomCBS will have further announcements on our efforts to combat hate of all kinds.”
Abdul-Jabbar reached the same conclusion.
“No one is free until everyone is free,&#8221; he said. &#8220;As Martin Luther King Jr. explained: ‘Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality.’ So, let’s act like it.&#8221;

Racism

Fox Soul, Fox TV’s streaming service targeted to black viewers, has canceled a Fourth of July program that was set to feature Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan.
The new network had planned to air a &#8220;Message to America&#8221; from Nation of Islam leader Farrakhan, who has been widely criticized for anti-Semitic and racist statements. Farrakhan was scheduled to deliver his remarks — dubbed &#8220;The Criterion: An Announcement to the World&#8221; — at 11 a.m. EDT on America&#8217;s birthday.
Among other widely reported comments, Farrakhan compared Jews to termites and defended the use of the phrase “death to America” on a visit to Iran in 2018.
Former New York State Assemblyman Dov Hikind, a Democrat and founder of Americans Against Antisemitism, called on Fox Soul to cancel the program.
&#8220;@AmericansAA calls upon @FOXTV to immediately cancel the planned JULY 4 broadcast of Dishonorable Minister of Hate @LouisFarrakhan on @foxsoultv@splcenter considers the Nation of Islam to be an extremist hate group. So why amplify this hateful voice?!#CancelFarrakhanNow!&#8221; he wrote.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Others also blasted the network for giving Farrakhan a platform.
“Since the 1980s, Louis Farrakhan has denigrated the Jewish people, Judaism and the Jewish state, members of the LGBT community, the United States of America, and entertainment leaders from Hollywood. Throughout those decades, he has embraced America’s enemies from Libya’s Ghaddafi to Iran’s Ayatollahs,” said Rabbi Marvin Hier, head of the Simon Wiesenthal Center, and Rabbi Abraham Cooper, associate dean and global director of social action for the leading Jewish human rights NGO, according to the <a href="https://www.jpost.com/diaspora/simon-wiesenthal-center-cancel-louis-farrakhans-july-4-speech-on-fox-633213">Jerusalem Post</a>.
The cancellation also came after Anti-Defamation League CEO Jonathan Greenblatt and CNN anchor Jake Tapper &#8220;slammed plans for a live broadcast of Farrakhan’s speech,&#8221; the <a href="https://www.thedailybeast.com/fox-soul-cancels-louis-farrakhan-broadcast-after-outrage-from-adl-jake-tapper-and-others">Daily Beast</a> reported.
“Louis Farrakhan, a notorious #antisemite &amp; #homophobe, inexplicably continues to get airtime,” Greenblatt wrote on Twitter, also posting the promotional Fox Soul graphic touting the Farrakhan broadcast.
<blockquote>“He has called Jews ‘termites’ and the #LGBTQ+ community ‘degenerates.’ He deserves condemnation, not exposure,” Greenblatt added, slamming the streaming service that the Rupert and Lachlan Murdoch-controlled Fox Corp. launched in January to appeal to an African-American viewership.</blockquote>
Tapper wrote on Twitter that &#8220;Farrakhan is a vile anti-LGBTQ anti-Semitic misogynist. Why is a Fox channel airing his propaganda?”
That comment drew a strong response from rapper and actor Ice Cube, whose real name is O’Shea Jackson. “Watch your mouth Jake,” the 51-year-old tweeted at Tapper.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Said the Beast:
<blockquote>As outrage mounted, Fox Soul’s head of programming, James DuBose, dropped the Farrakhan speech and instead made plans to air a compilation of inspirational speeches about racial relations from “the greatest Black leaders and thinkers,” according to a release posted on Twitter.</blockquote>

&#8220;This powerful and inspirational program replaces the previously scheduled Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan&#8217;s &#8216;Message to America,'&#8221; the statement says.
Fox Soul, which was launched in January, intends to be &#8220;a new live and interactive streaming channel dedicated to the African American viewer.&#8221;
&#8220;The programs aim to celebrate black culture and deal with real topics that impact the everyday lives of the black community through frank and insightful dialogue with local and national influencers,&#8221; its website says.

Nipsey Hussle’s Celebration Of Life – Inside

Fox Soul Cancels Louis Farrakhan Broadcast After Social Media Outrage

On Sunday night, comedian-turned-full-time-left-wing activist Chelsea Handler posted to her Instagram page remarks from controversial figure and Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan, who is well known for his anti-white, anti-Semitic, racist and homophobic rhetoric.
“I learned a lot from watching this powerful video,” Handler captioned the post.
According to <a href="https://nypost.com/2020/06/16/chelsea-handler-praises-clip-of-louis-farrakhan-on-instagram/">the New York Post</a>, the clip, which is not dated, is from an appearance on the &#8220;Phil Donahue Show.&#8221; During the video, Farrakhan rationalizes and promotes anti-white prejudice and repeatedly vilifies &#8220;white folk,&#8221; suggesting racial tension will never be overcome and that whites are full of guilt and fear that black people will one day rule them.
As noted by the Post, other celebrities like actress Jessica Chastain shared the content as well, and actresses Jennifer Aniston, Michelle Pfeiffer, and Jennifer Garner &#8220;liked&#8221; the content posted by Handler. &#8220;The Good Place&#8221; actress Jameela Jamil also reportedly shared the video to Instagram, with the message: “Someone please tell me the name of this extraordinary man who so perfectly sums up white fear in under a minute.&#8221;
Both Jamil and Chastain have apparently deleted the posts with no explanations.
Reacting to Handler&#8217;s post of Farrakhan, one Instagram user pushed back: “So, based on this logic, if you find a video of Hitler saying something positive and powerful, will you feel equally compelled to share it? You gave hate credibility and a large platform today.”
Handler, who is Jewish, responded: &#8220;No, because Hitler was responsible for killing millions of lives. Farrakhan is just responsible for his own promotion of anti-Semitic beliefs. They are very different.&#8221;
In a follow-up comment, the former comedian then suggested it was likely the fault of the Jews in Farrakhan&#8217;s life that made him anti-Semitic, anyway. “Another thing: perhaps Farrakhan’s anti-Semitic views took form during his own oppression,” she wrote. “We know now that oppression of one race leads to an oppression of all races.”
Amazed by the statements, popular Twitter politico known as Neontaster wrote, &#8220;Anyone talking about Chelsea Handler&#8217;s defense of Farrakhan as fine because his anti-Semitism didn&#8217;t lead to six million dead Jews and really when you think about it, it&#8217;s sorta their fault he&#8217;s anti-Semitic anyway? No? OK, just checking.&#8221;

Israeli actress Not Tishby responded to Handler&#8217;s post via Instagram: &#8220;Chelsea, you should really check out who this guy is before you post him.. a proud anti Semite, highly questionable man. Promoting him of all people is not the best of choices.&#8221;
Tishby added a link to the <a href="https://www.adl.org/education/resources/reports/nation-of-islam-farrakhan-in-his-own-words">ADL</a> as a resource to view Farrakhan &#8220;in his own words.&#8221;

Chelsea Handler, Louis Farrakhan

Chelsea Handler, Other Celebs Promote Anti-White Remarks From Louis Farrakhan; Handler Suggests He’s Only Anti-Semitic Because Jews Made Him That Way

Chelsea Handler

<a href="https://jstreet.org">J Street</a> has long been one of the most pernicious anti-Israel groups operating in the open. Untold amounts of ink have been <a href="https://www.chicagomaroon.com/article/2013/12/3/letter-j-street-liberals-fundamentally-misunderstand-pro-israel/">spilled</a> revealing the self-described &#8220;political home of pro-Israel, pro-peace Americans&#8221; for the <a href="https://thehill.com/blogs/congress-blog/politics/222366-j-street-pro-progressive-not-pro-israel">highly biased</a>, anti-Israel, <a href="http://www.thetower.org/article/anti-zionism-of-j-street/">Palestinian-Arab apologist</a> organization that it is.
For years following its 2007 founding by leftist activist Jeremy Ben-Ami, J Street operated on the outermost fringes of the institutional pro-Israel and Jewish communities. But the years-long success of the <a href="http://www.thetower.org/article/open-hillel-is-a-much-bigger-problem-than-you-think/">insidious</a> &#8220;Open Hillel&#8221; movement helped to ingratiate J Street, which routinely assails Israeli governmental policy and never seems to find any fault with Islamist terror acts committed against the Jewish state, within some more mainstream elements of the American Jewish community. And as Daily Wire Editor-in-Chief Ben Shapiro recently wrote, the modern Democratic Party feels more at home within the J Street fold than it does within the ambit of the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/hammer-what-exactly-current-role-aipac-josh-hammer">moderate</a> pro-Israel group AIPAC:
<blockquote>[T]he heart of the Democratic Party has moved against Israel. &#8230; So the Democrats built up and gave credence to J Street, a Trojan horse group dedicated to undermining American support for Israel and justifying left-wing hatred of the Jewish state. J Street was founded by Clinton operative Jeremy Ben-Ami and Israeli far-left political figure Daniel Levy in late 2007. One of its chief sources of funding — a source obscured in the early years by its founders — was anti-Israel radical George Soros.</blockquote>
Accordingly, four candidates for the 2020 Democratic Party presidential nomination — South Bend, Indiana Mayor Pete Buttigieg, Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-MN), Rep. Julian Castro (D-TX), and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) — spoke last month at the <a href="https://jstreet.org/conference/">J Street National Conference</a>. By contrast, not a single 2020 Democratic Party presidential candidate spoke at the <a href="http://www.policyconference.org">AIPAC Policy Conference</a> last spring.
Now, the indispensable Legal Insurrection website has <a href="https://legalinsurrection.com/2019/11/j-street-radicalization-conference-speaker-compares-netanyahu-to-louis-farrakhan-and-stands-by-tamika-mallory/">highlighted</a> a particularly vile and irksome exchange that emanated from the bowels of the conference. It appears that April Baskin, who has the titles of &#8220;Racial Justice Director, Jewish Social Justice Roundtable&#8221; and &#8220;Founder/Principal, Joyous Justice Consulting,&#8221; defended noted <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/watch-womens-march-president-suggests-jews-are-ryan-saavedra">anti-Semite Tamika Mallory</a> and expressly compared infamous <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/1984/07/17/us/farrakhan-again-describes-hitler-as-a-very-great-man.html">anti-Semite</a> Louis Farrakhan to longtime Israeli Prime Minister <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/hammer-after-much-electoral-fanfare-israelis-once-josh-hammer">Benjamin Netanyahu</a>. Per <a href="https://legalinsurrection.com/2019/11/j-street-radicalization-conference-speaker-compares-netanyahu-to-louis-farrakhan-and-stands-by-tamika-mallory/">Legal Insurrection</a>:
<blockquote>[P]anelist April Baskin said that white supremacy is &#8220;woven into Jewish life in America.&#8221; She also said there are things she &#8220;hates&#8221; about the Jewish community — including her belief that Jews have a &#8220;propensity&#8221; to &#8220;complain.&#8221; &#8230;
Later in the session, Baskin declared her support for the disgraced Tamika Mallory. Mallory’s downfall culminated in early 2019 when when it emerged that she maintained a close relationship with the anti-Semitic conspiracy theorist and Nation of Islam leader, Louis Farrakhan. Mallory, the ex-Women’s March leader, refused to condemn Farrakhan and even posted a picture calling the anti-Semite &#8220;the GOAT (greatest of all time).&#8221;</blockquote>
Perhaps most egregiously of all, Baskin compared infamous Jew-hater Farrakhan to Netanyahu: &#8220;Tamika Mallory being pictured with with Louis Farrakhan, honestly, isn’t that different to me than my former boss, Rabbi Rick Jacobs, being seated with prime minister Netanyahu. In both cases, they both largely don’t agree with their politics, but in both cases, those are leaders who are connected to a large body of people.&#8221;
As of publication time, it seems that none of the 2020 Democratic presidential candidates who spoke at last month&#8217;s J Street National Conference have condemned Baskin&#8217;s vicious smear. Surprise, surprise.

New Jersey senator and Democratic presidential candidate Cory Booker recently wrote to an organization asking for their support &#8212; and that organization is closely aligned with racist and anti-Semitic preacher Louis Farrakhan.
In an <a href="https://capitalresearch.org/article/sen-cory-booker-asked-for-support-from-pro-farrakhan-group-for-reparations-bill/">exclusive report</a>, Ashley Rae Goldenberg of the Capital Research Center details that Booker wrote to the National Coalition of Blacks for Reparations in America (N&#8217;COBRA). Howard University Department of Afro-American Studies chair Greg Carr posted on Twitter the letter which Booker sent on June 5. In the letter, Booker asked for the organization to support Booker&#8217;s reparations proposal (S. 1083) in the Senate. Booker stated that his bill was the first slavery reparations bill to be introduced in the Senate, and asserted that America is still plagued by racism, arguing, &#8220;Reparations represent one way for the United States both to reckon with its past and to address the real consequences of historic and continued racial discrimination.&#8221;

Goldenberg also noted that the N&#8217;COBRA &#8220;<a href="http://ncobra.org/events/">events</a>&#8221; page acknowledged the connection between the organization and Farrakhan as far back as 2005, writing, &#8220;The National Coalition Of Blacks for Reparations in America (N&#8217;COBRA) will mobilize and organize our members and Reparations supporters to attend the 10th Anniversary Million Man March/Day of Atonement called by Minister Farrakhan and the Nation Of Islam.

And even before that, as Goldenberg points out, Farrakhan&#8217;s The Final Call <a href="http://www.finalcall.com/columns/mlf/mlf_reparations09-03-2002.htm">website mentioned</a> that Farrakhan praised N&#8217;COBRA on the eve of the Millions for Reparations March in 2002:

S. 1083 <a href="https://www.congress.gov/bill/116th-congress/senate-bill/1083/text">states</a>, &#8221; &#8230; as a result of the historic and continued discrimination, African-Americans continue to suffer debilitating economic, educational, and health hardships including having nearly 1,000,000 Black people incarcerated, an unemployment rate more than twice the current White unemployment rate, and an average of less than 1&#8260;16 of the wealth of White families, a disparity which has worsened, not improved, over time.&#8221;

Cory Booker Wants Pro-Farrakhan Organization To Support His Reparations Bill

Cory Booker

Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ) has been among the loudest voices critiquing former Vice President Joe Biden over Biden&#8217;s record of meeting with &#8220;Dixiecrats&#8221; who supported segregation and other racist policies back when he first began his tenure in Congress.
But Saturday, in an act of blinding irony, Booker, asked about his relationship with virulent anti-Semite, Rev. Louis Farrakhan, brushed off concerns and refused to say that he would not meet with the Nation of Islam&#8217;s notorious top preacher of hate.
WATCH:
<iframe loading="lazy" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen frameborder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/KAd-hPLgBKo" width="560"></iframe>
During a &#8220;faith breakfast&#8221; in South Carolina, Booker was asked, point blank, about his willingness to engage with Farrakhan by an audience member: &#8220;My question was would you be willing to have avoidance with him concerning his anti-Semitism?&#8221;
Booker responded with a lame excuse: that he has to put up with Farrakhan and the Nation of Islam because one of their mosques is within his constituency. And while he&#8217;s not one of those people who&#8217;d meet with everyone, Booker said, he sees no reason to apologize for his history of interacting with Farrakhan and his organization.
&#8220;You-you know, I live in Newark,&#8221; Booker stammered. &#8220;We have famous Mosque 25. We have Nation of Islam there,&#8221;
&#8220;As mayor I met with lots of folks. I hear Minister Farrakhan speeches for a lot of my life, so I don&#8217;t feel like I need to do that. I&#8217;m not one of these people who says I wouldn&#8217;t sit down with anybody to hear what they have to say,&#8221; he continued.
Asked if he understood precisely what Farrakhan represented to the Jewish community, Booker said he was familiar with Nation of Islam teachings.
&#8220;I am very familiar with Minister Farrakhan and his beliefs,&#8221; Booker added.
That&#8217;s a rather fascinating turn of events for Booker, who lashed out at Biden just last week over revelations that Biden worked with segregationist senators to get bills passed through Congress at the beginning of his career. Biden defended his temporary partnerships by saying they represented his ability to practice &#8220;civility&#8221; in order to get things accomplished.
&#8220;Vice President Biden&#8217;s relationships with proud segregationists are not the model for how we make America a safer and more inclusive place for black people, and for everyone,&#8221; Booker told reporters almost immediately after the news broke about Biden&#8217;s comments.
Booker later told ABC&#8217;s &#8220;This Week&#8221; that Biden&#8217;s excuse of &#8220;civility&#8221; was &#8220;hurtful,&#8221; that Biden would likely be unable to atone for his past sins, and that Biden should cease defending his record.
&#8220;This is about him evoking a terrible power dynamic that he showed a lack of understanding or insensitivity to by invoking this idea that he was called son by white segregationists who, yes, they see in him their son,&#8221; Booker said. &#8220;I heard from many, many African Americans who found the comments hurtful.&#8221;
Biden is obviously the target of ire because he is running well ahead of the pack of contenders for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination. Many of the concerns about Biden, of course, weren&#8217;t really concerns during the near-decade he served as Barack Obama&#8217;s vice president, but are surfacing now that he&#8217;s the clear front-runner.
For Booker, the issue may be more complicated. The Democratic party is definitely struggling with how to handle anti-Semitism within its ranks and has been less than effective at policing its connection to those who preach and speak hate against the Jewish people. Booker, like many of his colleagues, seems all too willing to tolerate characters like Farrakhan, even given their long history of anti-Semitic remarks.
