I too saw that interview he came off as being very rational,seems to
come across as being real he knows whats up
My opinion of Mr Farrakhan is not only based on the video I supplied,
but from reading several books/research projects that correlate
his philosophy with overt racism.
There is also hundreds of speeches given by Mr Farrakhan, dozens of
which anyone can find on Youtube that would contradict your
assessment of Mr Farrakhan as a "rational" man.
I never could understand how he uses the Koran as a basis
for solidarity among blacks. Murray Gordon in his excellent
book "Slavery In The Arab World" details how Koran/Islam
has and does vilify every race (including blacks)
UNTIL that person becomes a Muslim.
Mr Farrakhan and his predecessor were just ingenious to twist
their conception of Islam to produce a large following.
It's fascinating how his advocates teach White American oppression
of black people, but conveniently disregard the recorded history of
Islamic imperialism. Which to this day is still involved in SLAVERY of
black Africans.
Information about Mr Farrakhan true motives can also be gleaned
from what his many FOLLOWERS believe and teach, some of
which I've had the unfortunate acquaintance of meeting.
Let me state emphatically to understand the theology/philosophy
that drives his many followers, is to understand the mentality of
true racism.
These people will rarely tell others outside of their own skin color
how they truly feel about whites. But those of us with the same skin
color have been privy to discussions that revolve around racism.
It's my belief Mr Farrakhan is just another religious charlatan who has
gained an immense amount of wealth from people to lazy to think
for themselves. Some of Mr Farrakhan past statements that depict
him as a "rational" man. (sarcasm)
"I don't know what the hell the fight is about over the Confederate flag!
We need to put the American flag down because we've caught as
much hell under that as the Confederate flag. Who are we fighting
today? It's the people that carry the American flag"
“we’ll tear this goddamn country apart!”
“My god will wipe this country from the face of the earth.”
"White people are potential humans, they haven’t evolved yet"
"The Mother Wheel is a heavily armed spaceship the size of a city,
which will rain destruction upon white America but save those
who embrace the Nation of Islam.”
“The American System Has To Be Taken Down.”
