Illinois Acts To Control Islam College
Illinois lawmakers urged tightening laws to grant state control over the University of Islam, a Chicago area school run by the Black Muslim sect that the commission says teaches racial hierarchy. Senator Gottschalk pressed for a private school accrediting act with curricular standards and a ban on racial superiority teaching. John Ali defended the school, arguing Chicago schools propagate white supremacy and hatred, while noting the sect teaches hatred of ignorance and exploitation, not whites.
