The Arabic word for slave is the same for black person.

So if you were to say "Go to the Black person over there" or " Go to the slave over there" the words would be exactly the same.

The prophet mohammed killed many people then took the remaining living people as slaves and raped them.

The islamists ran the slave trade before America wanted slaves and after slavery ended in America.

For anyone to blame Jews for the pain of slavery is wrong, historically and morally.

It is terrible what Black people went through, and are still going through. Bigotry and racism harmed untold millions of good Black people.

It is sad and sickening what Black people have had to endure.

To blame another victimized group of people is also sick.

Black people today face huge problems, the answer to these problems is not in hate.

It is mildly interesting that when Minister Farrakhan signed his name he did not write " Minister Farrakhan, slave of allah"
