Upon receiving the news of the white supremacist rally in-the-making, the Dallas chapter of the Huey P. Newton Gun Club intervened, aligning themselves with the New Black Panther Party and the Nation Of Islam to ensure the safety of the worshipers who attend the mosque in South Dallas. The members of the gun club exercised their constitutional rights by defending the innocent people in the mosque, bearing arms in the process.

The  white supremacists who planned to promote their anti-Islamic views belong to a group known as the Bureau of American Islamic Relations–otherwise known as BAIR.

In Case You Missed It: A Recap Of Minister Farrakhan’s Million Man March Message (Video Included) https://www.melanoidnation.org/in-case-you-missed-it-a-recap-of-minister-farrakhans-million-man-march-message-video-included/ https://www.melanoidnation.org/in-case-you-missed-it-a-recap-of-minister-farrakhans-million-man-march-message-video-included/#comments Sun, 11 Oct 2015 03:15:55 +0000 http://melanoidnation.org/?p=2663 WASHINGTON, D.C. — Despite the blatant mainstream media blackout of the historical event, hundreds of thousands–and perhaps millions–of Melanoid people descended upon the nation’s capital to commemorate the 20th anniversary of 1995’s Million Man March. Droves of hardworking everyday Black folks took the time and made the necessary sacrifices to make the trip to D.C., carpooling and meeting up for bus rides to make the trip. Scores of notable figures and celebrities in Black Society were also on hand–and were in many ways just regular faces in the crowd as they joined countless others in listening to the message of the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan. Black business owners set up shop as vendors…and the overall spirit of this weekend’s event was extremely high.

For those who missed out on the opportunity to hear the Minister’s powerful message, it can be found in the video below.

Black Clergyman Believes There’s Room For Min. Farrakhan In The Black Church https://www.melanoidnation.org/black-clergyman-believes-theres-room-for-min-farrakhan-in-the-black-church/ https://www.melanoidnation.org/black-clergyman-believes-theres-room-for-min-farrakhan-in-the-black-church/#comments Wed, 23 Sep 2015 16:49:39 +0000 http://melanoidnation.org/?p=2541 ATLANTA, GA — Last week, we featured a story here on Melanoid Nation that involved the Hon. Minister Louis Farrakhan being banned from giving speeches in Charleston, S.C. based on the local Black clergymen (in Charleston)’s conjecture that Minister Farrakhan’s message against racism/white supremacy would be too ‘controversial’.

Fortunately, not all Black clergymen feel this way. An interview has been conducted by Rolling Out that features one man by the name of Dr. F. Keith Slaughter. Dr. Slaughter is the Dean of the Morehouse School of Religion on the campus of the Interdenominational Theological Center in Atlanta. In the interview, he explicitly elaborates on the importance of Farrakhan’s alliance with the Black church.

His (Farrakhan’s) message is consistent with the original and authentic message of liberation that began the Black church in the U.S. We must be reminded that the Black church began as a resistance movement to counterbalance the impact of the racist Christian church, which was/is rooted in White supremacy.

….There are many Black “so-called” leaders whose messages counter the message of Farrakhan … how about Dr. Ben Carson, for instance? I believe we are at a point in our history as an oppressed people whereby we can no longer allow space for “false divisions” based on social constructions to determine whether we support each other or no.

As a Black clergyman himself, Dr. F. Keith Slaughter’s outspokenness on this topic breathes new life into what some Black churches have contrived to be a “controversy”. He sheds light on the outlandishness of certain Black churches’ refusal to be remotely involved with anything that will enlighten–and embolden–their Melanoid members to be Black-first. Not only is there room for Minister Farrakhan in the Black Church, there’s also room in Black Society for Melanoid people who will unapologetically speak truth to power, such as Dr. F. Keith Slaughter.

Here are video clips which show Minister Farrakhan’s year-long travels to various churches around the country, campaigning for the Justice Or Else! movement.

The Renaissance of Black Wall Street https://www.melanoidnation.org/the-renaissance-of-black-wall-street/ https://www.melanoidnation.org/the-renaissance-of-black-wall-street/#comments Tue, 26 May 2015 09:04:07 +0000 http://melanoidnation.org/?p=1793 In recent years, there has been very insightful and in-depth analysis among the brightest minds of Black Society involving the legend which has now become ‘Black Wall Street’. The dialogues now include yet another element to them that has sparked the interests of countless Melanoid people throughout the U.S., and beyond: Where should the next “Black Wall Street” be?

If there has been one question alone that has created a conversational wildfire in Black Society, it’s the question of where “Black Wall Street” should make its new home. Should the new “Black Wall Street” take residence in Atlanta, with its Black mayor, countless Black millionaires, entrepreneurs, and its recently-created reputation of “Black Hollywood“? Should it be rooted in Chicago, the midwestern City that was founded by a Black man, and  the same city where the Nation Of Islam is based? What about Detroit, the largest city in Michigan with a majority Black population that once served as an incubator to some of the greatest music ever created (by Melanoid people nonetheless) by the Brothers and Sisters at Motown?

All of the previous questions are not only great questions to ask and consider, but they also happen to all be the correct answers. The answer is that all of the cities mentioned above–in addition to any other city of Melanoid people willing to create their own Black economic base–should  have a new “Black Wall Street“. With the militaristic attacks executed by the hands of white supremacists during the early 20th century to destroy the original “Black Wall Street” in Tulsa, OK, it’s a safe assumption to acknowledge that  building new “Black Wall STREETS” in as many cities inhabited by Melanoid people as possible is the best option at this point..

The following video clip is a trailer to an upcoming film which shows the importance of building multiple “Black Wall Street” districts to avoid being easily isolated for destruction at the hands of white supremacists once again.
