Media reports cite the “black separatist group” leader Louis Farrakhan as stating before an audience in Chicago that America will suffer a natural disaster. The Chicago Tribune quotes Louis Farrakhan as stating that “It’s not an accident that a great earthquake took place in Chile… It was a precipitate of what I have to tell you today of what’s coming to America. You will not escape.”
The Chicago Tribune also reports that “Though some of Farrakhan’s past remarks have been labeled anti-Semitic and racist, his supporters say he has been misunderstood and misrepresented by the media.” Previous quotes from Louis Farrakhan have included “the white man is our mortal enemy, and we cannot accept him. I will fight to see that vicious beast go down into the late of fire prepared for him from the beginning…” and describing Judaism as a “gutter religion, he state “The Jews don’t like Farrakhan, so they call me Hitler. Well, that’s a good name. Hitler was a very great man.”
The Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) lists the Nation of Islam as a “black separatist” group among its list of “active hate groups.”
