Carolina QuotesWe are a sick people and there is no way we can expect White people to show respect to us and submit to our desires when we are so fractured and broken as a people.

Now to speak to the charge of antisemitism. To say that Louis Farrakhan is an antisemitic is an improper and unjust characterization of me. To say that I have been critical of Jews and critical of the state of Israel is true.
