Nobody Should Teach The Black Man In

Here I Am, Back In Mecca. I Am Still Traveling, Trying To Broaden My Mind, For I've Seen Too Much Of The Damage Narrow-mindedness Can Make Of Things, And When I Return Home To America, I Will Devote What Energies I Have To Repairing The Damage.

For 12 Long Years I Lived Within The Narrow-minded Confines Of The 'straightjacket World' Created By My Strong Belief That Elijah Muhammad Was A Messenger Direct From God Himself, And My Faith In What I Now See To Be A Pseudo-religious Philosophy That He Preaches.... I Shall Never Rest Until I Have Undone The Harm I Did To So Many Well-meaning, Innocent Negroes Who Through My Own Evangelistic Zeal Now Believe In Him Even More Fanatically And More Blindly Than I Did.

Instead Of Working For White Man And Helping Him Hold Up A Government That Continues To Suppress Us Socially And, And Exploit Us Economically And Oppress Us Politically, Let Us Go And Enter Our Own Territory And Use Our Own Talents To Uplift Ourselves By Our Own Bootstraps. And Then He Will Recognize Us For What We Are.

In My Opinion, Mature Political Action Is The Type Of Action That That Involves A Program Of Re-education And Information That Will Enable The Black People In The Black Community To See The Fruits That They Should Be Receiving From The Politicians Who Are Over Them And, Thereby, They Are Then Able To Determine Whether Or Not The Politician Is Really Fulfilling His Function.

The White Race Is Doomed Not Because It's White But Because Of Its Misdeeds.
