Lord grant me the courage to change the things I can, this is our road map to freedom by our hands and God's Blessings

[Maurice D Muhammad]

"We are at war! Our survival as a people is at stake. We all are going to be tested in this autumn. America is living on borrowed time. Time for talk is over! To be free sacrifice must be made! Blood must flow if we are to be free." Minister Louis Farrakhan

The masses of our people are on a Death March into the oven of social deterioration, broken homes, broken marriages, broken minds, broken spirit, evolving from a string of broken promises by government and leadership that has failed to help our people turn around the misery and wretchedness of our condition. The knowledge to correct the horror of our condition is among us.

The potential force and power to cause us to rise as a people is among us. The finance to fuel our rise is also among us. The challenge facing all of us is to rise above the things that have kept us divided in the past, by focusing us on the agenda of creating a better future for our people to see how all of us, with all of our varied differences, can come together and direct our energy, not at each other, but at the condition of the reality of the suffering of our people, that we might use all of our skills, gifts and talents to create a better world for ourselves, our children, grandchildren and great grandchildren.

It is time for us to stop thinking and acting solely on behalf of our churches, mosques, temples, synagogues and organizations. It is time for us as leaders to come together and begin to think, plan, and act on behalf of the whole of our people. Each of us has gradually come to the conclusion that no one organization or leader can solve the many problems we face.

All of our leaders and organizations have done the best it could working on its agenda and programs – yet, our people are slipping further behind. I have come painfully to the conclusion that we need each other desperately. Allah (God) has given us gifts, skills and talents that must be gathered, harnessed, organized and structured in a way that will enable us to lift our people from where we are to where Allah (God) wants us to be. This is the challenge of the time. Within us is the will to do this, however, our will must be fed by the insatiable desire to see our people, free, justified and equal with the best in civilized society. Therefore, it is proper that we seize this moment in time, recapture the spirit of the million man, women, youth and family marches, and make the necessary sacrifice to save ourselves and our people. All of our leaders, teachers and guides who have paid the ultimate price have led us to this moment; all of our people who have died hoping for a better day have led us to this moment; all of those whose hope is lost, who are dying in the streets of America, the homeless, the sick and diseased, those imprisoned, our political prisoners, our veterans, our youth locked in a culture of death, the jobless, the destitute, the forlorn, the abandoned, have led us to this moment in time.

The future of our people depends upon our ability to mobilize.

VISION

There is no better time to mobilize and organize our people locally, and, put systems in place that will permit a successful programmatic thrust to bring to fruition what we envision for ourselves and our people.

MISSION

 Toward this end, we must gather the best, brightest and most willing minds to mobilize and organize our people, and to develop short and long range plans and programs for: 1. Spiritual and moral development 2. Educational development 3. Economic development 4. Political development 6. Social development 7. Cultural development 8. Health development. To develop the systems necessary to bring these plans and program initiatives to fruition. We must develop strategic alliances to further our aims. We must never form an alliance from a position of weakness, but, rather from a position of strength. We must forge unity with the struggle of the African Union to develop Africa, with the Caribbean, Central and South America, with the Isles of the Pacific, and with our Native American Brothers and Sisters. We must develop a skills bank, the talent of which should be used in the development of our people in the United States and World Wide.

DEMANDS

We must demand an end to police brutality and mob attacks.

We must demand an end to the lack of adequate health care and substandard education.

We must demand an end to racial profiling, the herding of our young men and women into prisons and the biological and chemical warfare being perpetrated against our people.

We must demand reparations.

We must demand that America take the appropriate steps to help in the repair of the damage done to the descendants of slaves for 300 years of slavery, 100 years of segregation, and 50 years of the misuse and abuse of governmental power to destroy Black organizations and leaders that have over the years been working to heal the condition of nearly 40 million of our people in America. To this end, Christians, Muslims, Hebrews, Jews, agnostics, nationalists, socialists, men, women and youth are coming together in agreement that the time is now for us to articulate our demands, and to accept our responsibility to change the condition and reality of our lives. Even though we petition the government, our covenant must first be with our Creator and with each other.

 

We were taught that our word must be our bond. When we break our word we destroy the life of the covenant or the agreement that we have made. It is absolutely necessary that as leaders we must build trust among ourselves. We can only build trust when we strive to keep our word, particularly a solemn agreement or covenant that we make with each other and with our people. Ever since our fathers set the soles of their feet in the western hemisphere, particularly since the ending of chattel slavery, many promises have been made to us as well as to others by the Government of the United States of America that have been broken because those who have given their word to us and the Native Americans had no intentions of fulfilling what they put on paper as a treaty or what they wrote as a law where we are concerned. Every gain that our leaders and their followers fought bled, and even died to give us, while we celebrated the success of the agreement or the law, the process began to erode and destroy the life of that agreement.

Therefore, it is wise and prudent that we make a covenant among ourselves as leaders and make a covenant or solemn agreement with our people that we sign, and, in signing declare in our hearts and publicly that our word shall be our bond. In so doing, we as leaders can create the spirit of unity in our people. Then, we need not make a demand. Our unity will command our presence at whatever table, in whatever forum we decide to be a part of and gain for us whatever we desire for our people.

Our presence here is to bury the attitude of those who founded America in their short-sighted vision. What will we leave our children if not a nation and land to build upon? We're not here to march. We're here to unite for the purpose to build a future. A new nation is coming in. MLF

COVENANT

This is the written covenant with God that is found in the Word of God in the Bible, "If my people which are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways then will I hear from heaven forgive their sins and heal their land." II Chronicles Chapter 7 verse 14. The burden is on us to fulfill our part. The Qur’an teaches this truth similarly in these words, "Allah will never change the condition of a people until they change within themselves. Family the burden is on us to change our behavior; to build love, trust and confidence in each other and in our people for us, then, 95% of our problems shall have been solved. We, as leaders must declare that we will never sell out the aspirations of our people for personal wealth, position and advancement in the society of our former slave masters and their children. We must make a covenant with our people to work and sacrifice and be willing to be the good shepherd (leaders) who will lay down our lives for our people. Let us accept our responsibility and change our behavior to that, which will make us more than comrades and brothers, but a behavior that will make us friends and companions in the struggle for the total liberation of our people here and wherever we are found on this earth.

"Freedom means we have to go to work... Sitting around begging others is not the answer. "It our Genesis... It must start with land and farming." MLF

This is what is being done in Nashville TN and needs to be done in all Cities in America. This is our ticket to liberty. It took the Mormons 3 years to produce a full functioning city and 53 years to produce a full functioning State. Now in this modern time how long will it take us to produce our cities and States? Almost every city has a China Town or Greek Town that is Separate but apart and it functions by their rules and regulations. When is the last time you have seen China Town in the news about crime or protesting something or talking about bad public education? They have their own and now we must create our own!

So when we come to a city instead of finding the ghetto let’s find Free Town or Black Unity City and be free to be around our people living free and in peace. This is real and we will bring it to past the more cities that hook up with us will bring more trade and jobs we will create our industries. Remember the Hon. Elijah Muhammad did it! Marcus Garvey did it! Father Divine did it! China town is doing it! We must do it!

Don't ever forget this: Sankara, a charismatic army captain, came to power in Burkina Faso, in 1983, in a popularly supported coup. He immediately launched the most ambitious program for social and economic change ever attempted on the African continent. To symbolize this rebirth, he even renamed his country from the French colonial Upper Volta to Burkina Faso, ‘Land of Upright Men.

WE MUST DO THE WORK OF UP RIGHT MEN!
