Farrakhan blames Jews for the slave trade, plantation slavery, Jim Crow, sharecropping and general black oppression. Farrakhan鈥檚 tone grew more belligerent in June 2010, when he sent letters to several leaders of the Jewish community as well as the Southern Poverty Law Center demanding that they acknowledge the evils they have perpetrated and that they work to further Farrakhan鈥檚 goals. The letter ended with a threat to 鈥渞uin and destroy your power and influence here and throughout the world鈥� if his terms were not met.

In his own words

鈥淭he Jews, a small handful, control the movement of this great nation, like a radar controls the movement of a great ship in the waters. 鈥� The Jews got a stranglehold on the Congress."
颅鈥揕ouis Farrakhan, Saviours鈥� Day speech, Chicago, Feb. 25, 1990

鈥淎nd 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.鈥�
鈥揕ouis Farrakhan, Saviours鈥� Day speech, Chicago, Feb. 25, 1996

鈥淎nd the Christian right, with your blindness to that wicked state of Israel 鈥� can that be the holy land, and you have gay parades, and want to permit to have a gay parade in Jerusalem when no prophet ever sanctioned that behavior. How can that be the Israel, how can that be Jerusalem with secular people running the holy land when it should be the holy people running the holy land. That land is gonna be cleansed with blood!鈥�
鈥揕ouis Farrakhan, Saviours鈥� Day speech, Chicago, Feb. 26, 2006

鈥淲e can now present to our people and the world a true, undeniable record of the relationship between Blacks and Jews from their own mouths and pens. These scholars, Rabbis and historians [that Nation of Islam researchers studied] have given to us an undeniable record of Jewish anti-Black behavior, starting with the horror of the trans-Atlantic slave trade, plantation slavery, Jim Crow, sharecropping, the labor movement of the North and South, the unions and the misuse of our people that continues to this very moment.鈥�

鈥揕ouis Farrakhan, Saviours鈥� Day speech, Chicago, Feb. 17, 2019

Background

Minister Louis Abdul-Haleem Farrakhan Muhammad Sr., better known simply as Louis Farrakhan, was born Louis Eugene Walcott on May 11, 1933, in New York City. Farrakhan was a talented high school student, but he dropped out of college in the summer of 1953 to take care of his wife during a difficult pregnancy. Up to that point, Farrakhan had a music career he began in his teens when he played violin in Boston-area symphonies. Later, Farrakhan recorded several calypso albums under the name 鈥淭he Charmer鈥� and also performed live as a cabaret singer and dancer.

Farrakhan鈥檚 singing career was left behind after he heard Elijah Muhammad, the leader of the Nation of Islam (NOI), speak in Chicago in February 1955. Soon after, he became a member of Temple #7 in Harlem, where Malcolm X was in charge. Farrakhan rose quickly within NOI and in 1957 he became the minister of Boston Temple #11.

The Nation of Islam has a black separatist agenda: Its program states that black people should be able to form their own nation. It also holds that black people should be made exempt from taxation until they have achieved equal justice under the law and that interracial marriage and 鈥渞ace mixing鈥� should be 鈥減rohibited.鈥� These views are based on religious precepts created by Elijah Muhammad and preached by Farrakhan.

Ideologically, NOI is very distinct from mainstream Islam. Its 鈥渢heology鈥� 鈥� or more appropriately, its mythology 鈥� holds that the original humans were black, and that God, who is a black man, created them. White people were not created by God but by the evil black scientist Yakub. Yakub used eugenics to create white people, killing many black babies to do so. Because of the process by which Yakub created the white race, white people are inherently deceitful and murderous. Given these views, it is not surprising that white people are banned from NOI.

Other unique traits found in NOI鈥檚 ideology include the belief in extraterrestrial lifeforms and UFOs. Farrakhan has written on the topic in 鈥�The Divine Destruction of America: Can She Avoid It?,鈥� where he refers to UFOs as 鈥渕other wheels.鈥� Farrakhan claims they were very expensive to create and were built in Japan by the 鈥渙riginal scientists.鈥� On March 30, 2011, Farrakhan warned that recent uprisings in the Arab world coupled with the tsunami in Japan signified that the divine spaceships waiting to avenge black suffering would soon arrive, adding that 鈥淏rother Barack鈥檚鈥� decision to back the rebels opposing Libyan dictator Moammar Qaddafi, whom Farrakhan considers a personal friend and ally, .

When Malcolm X left NOI to become a Sunni Muslim in March 1964, NOI leaders vigorously condemned him. In December 1964, Farrakhan wrote in the NOI publication Muhammad Speaks: 鈥淭he die is set, and Malcolm shall not escape, especially after such evil foolish talk about his benefactor Elijah Muhammad. 鈥� Such a man as Malcolm is worthy of death and would have met with death if it had not been for Muhammad鈥檚 confidence in Allah for victory over the enemies.鈥� Two months later, NOI members assassinated Malcolm X; the role, if any, of the NOI leadership in planning the murders remains undetermined. However, the violent tone with which Farrakhan and other NOI leaders condemned Malcolm X may have encouraged his assassins to murder him.

Three months after Malcolm X鈥檚 death, Farrakhan became the minister of Temple #7 in New York. In 1967, he became the 鈥渘ational spokesman鈥� of NOI. Farrakhan鈥檚 history of public antisemitism began during his tenure as spokesman. In April 1972, he claimed that Jews were 鈥渋n control of the media,鈥� and by June of 1974, 70,000 people appeared in New York to hear him speak.

When Elijah Muhammad died on Feb. 25, 1975, his son, Warith Muhammad, succeeded him as leader of NOI. Warith was significantly less popular and less oratorically gifted than Farrakhan. Concerned with potentially being overshadowed by Farrakhan, Warith transferred him to Chicago and put him in charge of an unpromising temple located in a poor section on the west side of town. As leader, Warith worked to make NOI more mainstream and started allowing nonblack individuals to become members. In November 1976, he changed the group鈥檚 name to the 鈥淲orld Community of al-Islam in the West.鈥� The shift away from black separatist principles irked many NOI members, including Farrakhan.

Farrakhan thought that Warith was abandoning the principles that Elijah Muhammad had imbued in NOI. Not wanting to provoke Warith or be accused of splitting the movement, Farrakhan maintained a relatively low profile while struggling to accept the reformed teachings of Warith鈥檚 new group. Then, on Nov. 8, 1977, Farrakhan announced that he would be reestablishing the Nation of Islam in line with Elijah Muhammad鈥檚 principles. His group grew very quickly: In 1981, Farrakhan drew thousands of people to his first annual Saviours鈥� Day speech.

Over the years, Farrakhan strived to gain legitimacy as the rightful heir to Elijah Muhammad. In 1986 he purchased Muhammad鈥檚 former Chicago home, and then in 1988 he purchased Mosque #2, the flagship mosque owned by Warith Muhammad鈥檚 old Nation of Islam. Over time, Farrakhan鈥檚 NOI would grow to eclipse Warith鈥檚 organization in terms of membership.

Farrakhan routinely uses his popularity to rail against Jewish people. In July 1985, he spoke to an audience of 10,000 at the Washington, D.C., convention center. He told the audience, 鈥淛ews know their wickedness, not just Zionism, which is an outgrowth of Jewish transgression.鈥� In September of that year, Farrakhan spoke at Morgan State University in Baltimore. In his speech, he attacked Israel and Zionist Jews. He explained that Israel had not found peace since its creation because:

[[bq]]There can never be any peace structured on injustice, thievery, lying, deceit and using God鈥檚 name to shield your dirty religion. 鈥� You cannot tell me your religion is what you profess; your religion is what you practice, and if you practice lying and stealing and cheating and murder and w----mongering then your religion is a dirty religion.[[bq]]

Farrakhan believes in the false theory that Jews were largely responsible for the slave trade in the United States. This is based on his perception of Jews as perpetual exploiters of black people. As Farrakhan put it in a March 1985 speech at a Chicago church:

[[bq]]The owners of the slave ships were Jews. They were then the masters of the channels of distribution. From that day we had a relationship. You and they. They own the house, you clean it. They own the property, you rent it. They got the store, you buy from them. 鈥� It's been a master-slave relationship.[[bq]]

Farrakhan attempted to find support for his bigotry when he asked the NOI鈥檚 鈥淗istorical Research Department鈥� to investigate the involvement of Jews in the slave trade. The result was the book 鈥淭he Secret Relationship Between Blacks and Jews,鈥� which was published by NOI in 1991. The book describes incidents in which Jews traded or owned slaves in the U.S., and lists Jews who fought in the Confederate Army. However, it does not compare the number of Jews who did these things with the number of non-Jews who were involved in these practices, causing it to completely fail in proving a disproportionate level of Jewish anti-black activity. Eugene Genovese, a deceased American scholar who was an expert on slavery, said of the book, 鈥淭he absurdity of its pretensions to scholarship are outweighed only by its sheer viciousness.鈥�

Farrakhan鈥檚 antisemitism has earned him some strange allies. Former Klan and White Aryan Resistance leader was so impressed with Farrakhan鈥檚 anti-Semitic bombast that he donated $100 to NOI after attending a Farrakhan rally in Los Angeles in September 1985. Given that white supremacists share NOI鈥檚 belief in separation of the races, a month later, Metzger and 200 other white supremacists from the United States and Canada gathered on a farm about 50 miles west of Detroit, where they pledged their support for the Nation of Islam.

Antisemitism is only one of Farrakhan鈥檚 many prejudices. Over the years, his comments have consistently been rabidly anti-gay. 鈥淕od don鈥檛 like men coming to men with lust in their hearts like you should go to a female,鈥� he told a Kansas City crowd in 1996. 鈥淚f you think that the kingdom of God is going to be filled up with that kind of degenerate crap, you're out of your damn mind.鈥�

Farrakhan also helped organize the Million Man March, which took place in Washington, D.C., on Oct. 16, 1995. Its planning was controversial: Some were tepid about the idea of implicitly endorsing Farrakhan by supporting a march for which he would be the keynote speaker. Nevertheless, approximately 800,000 people attended.

Not long after the march, in 1998, Farrakhan was diagnosed with prostate cancer. While fighting the disease, Farrakhan announced that he was moderating his views and turning to orthodox Islam. It was a false promise. He continued his attacks on Jews and 人兽性交 people and continued to work with other extremist organizations. For example, in February 2005, Farrakhan announced that chairman , a former NOI official, would be co-convening the Millions More March, a rally planned to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the Million Man March. Shabazz was responsible for organizing a kickoff event the night before the march, at which he promoted the book 鈥�The Synagogue of Satan,鈥� an antisemitic screed. Shabazz has a long history of making antisemitic remarks. At a 2002 protest at the B鈥檔ai B鈥檙ith headquarters building in Washington, D.C., Shabazz said: 鈥淜ill every goddamn Zionist in Israel! Goddamn little babies, goddamn old ladies! Blow up Zionist supermarkets!鈥�

On June 24, 2010, Farrakhan wrote a letter to Anti-Defamation League president Abraham Foxman asking for a 鈥渟ensible, intelligent dialogue鈥� about the supposed Jewish responsibility for injustices against black people. He sent copies of the letter to leaders of prominent Jewish organizations and the Southern Poverty Law Center. Using the classic stereotype of the 鈥渢rickster鈥� Jew, Farrakhan wrote, 鈥淲e could charge you with being the most deceitful so-called friend, while your history with us shows you have been our worst enemy.鈥� Farrakhan closed the letter with a threat, stating: 鈥淗owever, should you choose to make our struggle to civilize our people more difficult 鈥� Allah (God) and His Messiah will bring you and your people to disgrace and ruin and destroy your power and influence here and throughout the world.鈥� Foxman called the request 鈥渙utrageous and disingenuous.鈥�

Speaking in Atlanta on June 26, 2010, Farrakhan repeated the accusations from his letter to Foxman and promoted the second volume of 鈥淭he Secret Relationship Between Blacks and Jews.鈥� In a July 13, 2010, guest editorial in the Nation of Islam鈥檚 newspaper, The Final Call, Malik Zulu Shabazz praised Farrakhan for his speech and his letter to Foxman. Shabazz wrote: 鈥淚 know firsthand about the pressure and vicious attacking power of the Zionist power structure. 鈥� Farrakhan鈥檚 landmark speech also expands and opens up a new front on the struggle against Zionism.鈥� The fact that the letter was published in the NOI newspaper suggests that Farrakhan has not chosen to distance himself from Shabazz and his hateful views.

In March 2011, Farrakhan took up the cause of his then close friend and sometime financier, longtime Libyan tyrant Moammar Qaddafi. Libya was at the time in the midst of a violent uprising against Qaddafi and was being bombed by NATO due to the regime鈥檚 attacks on civilians. Farrakhan told a civil rights conference at Jackson State University that Qaddafi had played the role of a forceful parent in post-colonial Libya. 鈥淲hen you come out of a colonial past where you have lost the value of your own self-interest, God raises somebody from among you that can instill in you the value of yourself again and that person dictates the path until you have grown into your own self-interest,鈥� Farrakhan said of Qaddafi, according to the Associated Press.

The NOI had some self-interest of its own at stake regarding Qaddafi: In a September 2009 editorial in The Final Call, Farrakhan stated that Qaddafi in 1971 provided NOI with a $3 million loan to purchase a Greek Orthodox Church in Chicago that became his organization鈥檚 headquarters. Farrakhan also acknowledged a $5 million gift (originally a loan that was forgiven) from Qaddafi for 鈥渆conomic development鈥� provided at an unspecified date after Farrakhan took control of NOI, presumably after November 1977. Qaddafi, through Libya鈥檚 Islamic Call Society (described by Farrakhan as Libya鈥檚 鈥渞eligious arm鈥�), sponsored two NOI 鈥淲orld Friendship Tours,鈥� including visits to more than 40 countries, Farrakhan wrote.

In the Jackson State speech, Farrakhan also alleged that President Obama had backed down from pushing a Palestinian-Israeli peace accord and banning the building of settlements in the West Bank because he is 鈥渢he first Jewish president.鈥� Farrakhan, according to the Associated Press, said: 鈥淗e was selected before he was elected. And the people that selected him were rich, powerful members of the Jewish community.鈥�

In 2011, Farrakhan began making unusually conciliatory racial statements 鈥� in the context of a growing alliance between NOI and the Church of Scientology. 鈥淎ll white people should flock to [Scientology founder] L. Ron Hubbard,鈥� Farrakhan said. 鈥淵ou can still be a Christian; you just won鈥檛 be a devil Christian. You can still be a Jew, but you won鈥檛 be a satanic Jew.鈥� His remarks were part of a larger effort to encourage NOI members to embrace the practices of Scientology. This, Farrakhan claims, will help them prepare for the end times.

In early 2016, Farrakhan made a trip to Iran and took part in the 37th Anniversary of the Iranian Revolution. Farrakhan and his delegation reportedly met with a number of diplomats and political figures while attending the celebration. During a news conference, Farrakhan returned to antisemitic conspiratorial claims he so often discusses. 鈥淲henever America wants to destroy a nation, a people, they must first demonize them, and the Zionist controlled media in America has chosen to demonize Iran,鈥� he said.

Farrakhan make his first ever appearance on Alex Jones鈥� Infowars that same year.聽 The interview came after Farrakhan released a video on Twitter where he briefly mentioned Jones鈥� views on federal gun control. The two proceeded to agree on a number of key issues including their distrust in the democratic system and the federal government. Just days after Trump won the presidency, Farrakhan spoke to his followers and assured them that Trump鈥檚 presidential win was the opening they needed for other black people to realize it was time to separate from 鈥渨hite America.鈥� Farrakhan saw Trump鈥檚 rhetoric as a much-needed push the black community needed to join his movement, stating: 鈥淢y message to Trump: Push it real good, push it so that black people say, 鈥業鈥檓 out of here. I can鈥檛 take it no more.鈥欌�� In March, for 鈥渟tanding in front of the Jewish community and saying 鈥業 don鈥檛 want your money,鈥欌�� reiterating his belief that Jews are actively seeking ways to control the federal government.

Farrakhan wasted no time in criticizing the U.S. at his 2017 Saviours鈥� Day event in which he called the U.S. 鈥渢he most rotten nation on Earth.鈥� Farrakhan鈥檚 comment came after he recalled seeing 聽an interview between Donald Trump and Bill O鈥橰eilly in a pre-Super Bowl segment in which O鈥橰eilly accused Vladimir Putin of being a 鈥渒iller.鈥� Trump responded: 鈥淭here are a lot of killers. You think our country is so innocent?鈥� Farrakhan argued that judgment was not on Russia but was instead on the U.S., which happened to be on God鈥檚 鈥渓ist to be destroyed.鈥� Farrakhan would later call Trump an 鈥渁nomaly鈥� but in regard to his unpresidential demeanor.

In November of that same year at the Watergate Hotel in Washington, D.C., Farrakhan reinforced claims he had made in the past regarding a number of anti-government conspiracy theories. He again brought up the idea that 9/11 was an inside job, calling it 鈥渁 false flag operation.鈥� According to Farrakhan, the 9/11 attack was orchestrated by the U.S. government in an effort to bring everyone together after the divisive 2000 presidential race between Al Gore and George W. Bush.

In the same speech, Farrakhan detailed a conversation Elijah Muhammad said he had with former president Ronald Reagan. According to Farrakhan, Muhammad described detailed plans by the U.S. government to wage war against 鈥渂lack youth in particular, and the Nation of Islam.鈥� Farrakhan told his followers that this master plan has been carried out by the last six former U.S. presidents with the intent to kill all black people.

Conspiracies reiterated by Farrakhan in D.C. include the idea that the black population is being targeted with chemically altered marijuana in order to assault the black man鈥檚 brain. He claims that the food and water the black population consumes has been tampered with in an effort to lower the sperm count in black men, and that government scientists have unleashed homosexuality on the black population as a form of castration.

During the 2017 Saviours鈥� Day event Farrakhan warned his followers that 鈥渢he army is coming鈥� and 鈥渢hey鈥檙e coming with a mind to slaughter us.鈥� According to his most recent claims, the government is plotting a war with the Muslim population overseas, black people in the U.S. and the Nation of Islam. Conspiracies that target the black community have become one of the main selling points of the NOI, and Farrakhan credits his organization as the only thing that stands in between the general population of Muslim men and the government鈥檚 plan to de-masculinize them.

In February 2018 Farrakhan made headlines again when in his Saviours鈥� Day speech he took aim at adversaries, saying: 鈥淭he government is my enemy, the powerful Jews are my enemy, and scared-to-death negroes are my enemy, and weak Muslims and hypocrites are my enemy. But here I stand, unfazed by a government that wants my life!鈥澛�

Farrakhan has become the scapegoat for many fringe right figures as they attempt to make the case that social media platforms have a double standard when enforcing hate speech guidelines. Farrakhan remains active on both Facebook and Twitter, despite the fact that numerous extremists were removed from social media platforms in 2018. Criticism of Farrakhan only grew after he made a speech in October 2018 claiming he isn鈥檛 an antisemite, and then proceeded to attack the Jewish community in a now infamous tweet that read: 鈥淪o, when they (Jews) talk about Farrakhan, call me a hater, you know what they do, call me an anti-Semite. Stop it, I鈥檓 anti-Termite.鈥�

Controversial tweets weren鈥檛 the only setback for the 85-year-old this past year. In July the film 鈥淭he Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan: My Life鈥檚 Journey Through Music,鈥� that were expected to premiere on Netflix. The film, a documentary based on Farrakhan鈥檚 musical talents, caused an uproar with many Netflix 聽subscribers. Customers took to social media to complain and demand clarification from the streaming service for providing a platform to the NOI leader. Farrakhan did not learn of the removal until Netflix released a statement citing 鈥渋nternal miscommunications鈥� as the reason for the film鈥檚 appearance on the upcoming list of shows. The service clarified that Farrakhan鈥檚 documentary would not be picked up and was never intended to be available on the platform.

In November 2018, Farrakhan committed a major gaffe by making multiple offensive statements at speech at Tehran University in Iran. Farrakhan first used the phrase 鈥淒eath to Iran鈥� in Farsi. He then asked the crowd if he was saying it right. The audience responded by giving him the pronunciation for 鈥淒eath to America,鈥� which Farrakhan parroted back to them.
