TOUGH TO FOLLOW IN PLACES, but here is clip 4 of 5 from a German-produced video where we learn more details of the greatest secret being kept from any earnest discussion on race across the world today. This omission is not by accident. Find out why.

THE ISLAMIC SLAVE TRADE, Part 3
THE DEPTHS OF KNOWLEDGE THAT MANY have yet to wade is astonishing. Remember, not all Muslims have owned slaves. But as it consistently pointed out. Islam is unchangeable. Islam via the Noble Qu’ran allows for slavery. Furthermore, Islamic slavery throughout the ages has been documented, but that documentation is being kept hidden. Find out by whom, and why. View the entire series as it is posted here.
QUOTE OF THE DAY
“Socialists can provide shelter, fill your belly with bacon and beans, treat you when you’re ill, all the things that are guaranteed to a prisoner or a slave.” - Ronald Reagan
As the young and the belligerently idealistic continue to push toward anything that smacks of overthrowing capitalism and ushering in the imagined golden era of socialism, despite all its past and present failures, preferably under the banner of its anointed one, the rules of the game only grow fuzzier while the strategies turn nastier. If only I had been more politically awake during the Reagan years.
MUSLIM ROOTS OF THE BLUES
Here is an excerpt from a San Francisco Chronicle article suggesting that the American Blues style of popular music may actually have Muslim slave origins.
BAILEY LIVES ON Georgia’s Sapelo Island, where a small community of blacks can trace their ancestry to Bilali Mohammed, a Muslim slave who was born and raised in what is now the country of Guinea. Visitors to Sapelo Island are always struck by the fact that churches there face east. In fact, as a child, Bailey learned to say her prayers facing east—the same direction that her great-great-great-great-grandfather faced when he prayed toward Mecca.
Bilali was an educated man. He spoke and wrote Arabic, carried a Qur’an and a prayer rug, and wore a fez that likely signified his religious devotion. (Bilali had been trained in Africa to be a Muslim leader; on Sapelo Island, he was appointed by his slave master to be an overseer of other slaves). Although Bilali’s descendents adopted Christianity, they incorporated Muslim traditions that are still evident today.
The name Bailey, in fact, is a reworking of the name Bilali, which became a popular Muslim name in Africa because one of Islam’s first converts—and the religion’s first muezzin—was a former Abyssinian slave named Bilal. (Muezzins are those who recite the call to prayer from the minarets of mosques. ) One historian believes that abolitionist Frederick Douglass, who changed his name from Frederick Bailey, may have had Muslim roots.
“History changes things,” says Bailey, 59, who chronicled the history of Sapelo Island in her memoir, “God, Dr. Buzzard, and the Bolito Man.”
“Things become something different from what they started out as.”
IF EVERYONE JUST KNEW
Anybody remember this? Another gem from the sands of duplicitous Saudi Arabia and their thinly veiled plans of Islamic world domination.
“I summon my blue-eyed slaves anytime it pleases me. I command the Americans to send me their bravest soldiers to die for me. Anytime I clap my hands a stupid genie called the American ambassador appears to do my bidding. When the Americans die in my service their bodies are frozen in metal boxes by the US Embassy and American airplanes carry them away, as if they never existed. Truly, America is my favorite slave.”
—King Fahd Bin Abdul-Aziz, Jeddeh, 1993
