As the Minister walked the streets on Chicago’s Southeast Side, with the Fruit of Islam by his side and fanned out across other areas, young people and older adults had an opportunity Nov. 17 to hear from him, shake his hand, embrace him, take photos and hear words of love, concern and guidance.
The nearly 80-year-old Nation of Islam minister has continued to go directly into the community to encourage a lessening of tension and the men of the Nation of Islam across the country and in Canada, England, Trinidad, South Africa, and Jamaica have done the same.
The Minister’s tireless efforts to reach Black people, and youth in particular, are a testament to the quality of his love and heart and the serious time, which demands that Black America act now to find the way to peace and unity in the face of harrowing challenges.
