Black Muslims and Muhammad Elijah on race and separation
An article profiles Muhammad Elijah and his Black Muslims movement in the United States. It details their doctrine of complete racial separation, the belief that Black ancestors were original humans, rejected integration, and critiques of civil rights progress as misdirected. Elijah cites past oppression and argues for a self sufficient Negro nation while noting jail for draft resistance and mixed reception from other Black leaders.
