A Message from Minister Louis Farrakhan

Why is there a challenge to change? Eighteen months ago, by the Grace of God, I was on my deathbed. But God brought me back from that, and in it was produced in me a change.

There�s got to be priorities,�� George W. Bush responded when asked about Africa in the second U.S. presidential debate.

Africa did not make his short list: the Middle East, Europe, the Far East, and the Americas. A Bush presidency portends a return to the blatantly anti-African policies of the Reagan-Bush years, characterized by a general disregard for Black people and a perception of Africa as a social welfare case.

Can western-style democracy benefit Africa?

If we condemn the western system, then we are obligated to come up with a system that speaks more directly to the needs of the African people. The democratic system that is used in America sent a message to us that the country that is known as the leader of democracy in the world has its own problems, corruption, vote-counting fraud, and this was revealed to the whole world.
