In a narrative revealed on Monday for Labor Day, Washington Free Beacon reporter Jonathan Levine visited the Smithsonian African-American Historical past Museum for what grew to become an extremely disturbing encapsulation of the hateful bias and woke ideology President Trump and his administration face because it seeks to make sure the government-funded museums “rejoice American exceptionalism” and not symbolize “the final remaining phase of ‘WOKE.’”
Levine discovered that the museum – which opened in 2016 – “options reveals that glorify violent radical teams just like the Nation of Islam (NOI)” that make “little point out of the group’s historical past of violence, anti-White radicalism, and anti-Semitism.”
Writ giant, he mentioned the museum “supply[s] historic falsehoods on points like slavery,” together with a refusal to put the shameful chapter of American historical past within the broader context of the slave commerce.
However probably the most despicable but illuminating portion of his latest go to involved the Nation of Islam:
“For over 40 years, the Honorable Elijah Muhammad (1897–1975) led the Nation of Islam, which served as a religious sanctuary and self-help group for hundreds of thousands of African Individuals,” a tribute in a single exhibit reads. “Its spiritual, academic, and financial establishments promoted Black unity, delight, and ethical self-discipline and helped its members overcome poverty and different social ills.”
(….)
The NOI’s official theological place holds that an evil scientist named Yakub created white individuals, which the group refers to as “blue-eyed devils.” Yakub, a black Meccan based on NOI doctrine, created the white race to rule over black individuals for six,000 years via a technique known as “tricknology.”
(….)
Louis Farrakhan, the NOI’s present chief, advised his followers in 2015 that “white individuals need to die.” He additionally exhorted a black viewers to “stand up and kill those that kill us, stalk them and allow them to really feel the ache that we’re feeling” the identical yr.
Farrakhan can also be identified for his anti-Semitism. He has referred to Jews as “termites” and followers of the “synagogue of Devil,” has claimed that Jews are behind “pedophilia and sexual perversion institutionalized in Hollywood and the leisure business,” and has falsely blamed Jews for the trans-Atlantic slave commerce and Jim Crow.
On slavery, Levine identified the museum falsely claims slavery within the west was model new as a result of “[f]or the primary time, individuals noticed different human beings as commodities—issues to be purchased, bought and exploited to make huge earnings,” which “modified the world.”
The info present in any other case with Levine mentioning mentions of slavery exist hundreds of years, going again to B.C. because it seems within the Babylonian Code of Hammurabi and Greek philosophy.
Maybe least stunning was Levine exhibiting readers how little the museum cared to say outstanding black conservatives comparable to Justice Clarence Thomas and Dr. Ben Carson, a former Housing and City Improvement Secretary.
