Get this negro and his back-handed compliments of the Nation of Islam out of the discussion of the plight of Blacks in America.
He's complaining about having to adopt another's culture in Islam, but still he adopted someone else's culture in Islam.
If he wanted to help the Black community and keep his "culture,"( his concept of Black culture is retarded) he would be FOI.
If he wanted to defend himself about being called a nationalist within the confines of Islam, all he has to do is bring up the scriptural story of the Prophet Moses. Moses, with the help of Allah, taught and strived for separation and independence from a wicked oppressor. (sounds pretty familiar Blackman in America) In essence, he taught nationalism, which is what the Blackman in America needs. See how simple that was, didn't need to go study up under some Arabs to learn that.
Fact of the matter is, Black American Sunni Muslims have NO program with regards to the liberation and salvation of the descendants of slaves. They ALWAYS have to give their half-hearted props to The Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad. They're just Christians with cufis, they have NOTHING to offer except religion for the Blackman in America.
Edit: Thread premise is retarded too.
I hope you didn't make this cause you're one of these dudes that think Haitians were able to "keep their original African culture which is how they were able to defeat the French" so therefore everything would be better if all Black people were up on vodou.

So much of the black experience is punctuated with this phrase to me. What if?
This.
Also thanks for this thread. This brother is the truth
That was corny.

They were also instrumental in the Seminole wars after many escaped to Spanish Florida after the Stono Rebellion.
Ironic given certain Coli narratives because they were Christians (though syncretic), who spoke English, and were sometimes Mulatto.
They were such a handful the Europeans had to ban Kongolese importation. Funny because The Coli props up african religious systems, african languages, and being 100% African, which I have no issue with, but it is ahistorical to say anything other cannot be rebellious.
Also kind of demolishes the idea that Catholic influence on AAs was strictly a Gulf Coast phenomena or that AAs are strictly a West African people given that they made up a large bulk of the 900k or so slaves brought directly to the USA.
So is it reallytrue that they are related to ancient israelites?

They are actually directly related to the priestly class of Jews, through Aaron; who was the brother of Moses

upwards of 30% of aframs, african, ancestors were muslims
why the MJ smiley? I said unestimated because African muslim slaves were sent to all the Americas, therefore the total number is unestimated.
