Reply #123: Farrakhan's a black nationalist. [View All]

He fights for more rights for blacks not because he believes in unity and equality, but because he he is for blacks. He's merely picked a side in a racial struggle.

I think the contrast with, say, Martin Luther King makes it pretty apparent. He had a vision of unity and integration, a quintessential liberal ideal. Farrakhan doesn't. At this point, blacks are disadvantaged and that's why you confuse "fighting for more rights" for blacks to be something other than the maintenance of a polity based on race.
