"You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you cannot fool all of the people all of the time"
- Abraham Lincoln, 16th President of the United States
Introduction August 17th marked the 123rd memorial birthdate of Marcus Garvey. In honor of that occasion, I release the following from my future book, Reclaimed Legacy:Muslim Indigenous And Immigrant Peoples, And The True History Of Al-Islām In America. Muslim Influence on the U.N.I.A. “Father of all Creation Allah Omnipotent, Supreme o’er every nation God Bless our President” These are the words of one of the “hymns” of the Universal Negro Improvement Association (U.N.I.A.), founded by the late Marcus Mosiah Garvey, often described as the most influential leader of African descent in the West, during the 20th century. Garvey, considered by many to be the “Father of Black Nationalism”, had been taught African history, topology and politics while residing in Egypt, by a Muslim Egyptian named Duse Muhammad Effendi (see photo above left) Amongst Garvey’s followers were many African Americans, who viewed themselves as Muslims struggling for the liberation of their people from oppression.Th...
(click photos to enlarge for closer examination) ACT FOR AMERICA'S ANTI-SHARIA RALLIES LAST WEEK-END WERE OPPOSED AND REJECTED BY THOUSANDS OF AMERICANS OF ALL FAITHS The June 10th marches against Islamic religious law organized in various cities by the group ACT for America, reveal a fundamental lack of knowledge of both religion and law that the founders of American institutions possessed and demonstrated.

This is not only fear-mongering of the worst kind, but a betrayal of American religious tolerance that prefers sympathy and resilience over enduranc...
As-Salaamu 'Alaikum wa Rahmatullah ! READ THIS ARTICLE CONTAINING THE LATEST DISCLOSURES BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS: http://news.yahoo.com/documents-show-nypd-infiltrated-liberal-groups-081951121.html MY COMMENTARY : For those who still don't understand the implications of the NYPD warrantless surveillance of the Muslim community, here is the latest evidence of what I have been saying for months. The NYPD has been illegally spying not just on Muslims but on non-Muslims as well, in defiance of the law (which prevents domestic spying upon US citizens) and previous legal agreements (like Handschu) http://thevillager.com/villger_293/asneakymoveon.html . This latest episode focused upon us Muslims is just part of a larger fight that has to do with the constitutionality of certain law enforcement tactics. The NYPD has an attempted media spin justification of its acttions, but mark my words . There will be HUGE court battles over this! The NYPD , with its lack of transparency an...
