Farrakhan Calls on Blacks to Boycott Christmas: ‘Bonanza for White Business’
Breitbart Television ^ | September 10, 2015 | Pam Key

Posted on 09/11/2015 2:16:59 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

Thursday on TV One’s “News One Now,” the leader of the Nation of Islam, Louis Farrakhan called on African-Americans to boycott Christmas because it’s a “bonanza for white business.”

Discussing the “Justice Or Else” rally on October 10 to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the Million Man March, Farrakhan said the meaning of “Justice Or Else,” was a reference to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.’s 1968 Memphis sanitation worker strike.

Quoting King, Farrakhan said, “He said ‘we have to find a way to redistribute the pain,’ He talked about going to businesses that benefited from black dollars and he said, ‘We have to now withdraw our economic support, so that those who give us pain can receive some pain in return.'”

He continued that African-Americans “have between $1.1 and $1.5 trillion in consumer power, which makes black people a carcass where all the vultures gather to suck the life out of us.”(continued)

Good idea. I hope they do.

They will learn that the economy is completely indifferent.

Maybe he should call for a “Day without Negros.” Or, if he really means it a “Year without Negros.” That will teach the “Blue-Eyed Devil!”

Hey! Calypso Louie.

Invent your own black Christmas holiday.

I know what!

You can call it Kwanzaa.

Problem solved, imbecile.

I wish he would remind the honky-averse

should not be doing that stuff.

I think Rush commented a few months ago:

The more blacks get of what they say they want, the angrier and angrier they get.

And if Farrakhan, et. al., want to lash out at anyone, it should be people like Jackson and Sharpton who make a nice living from keeping the black man down (and angry), and the white elite media, who refuse to report the truth either by withholding information or outright lying.

Their ‘consumer power’ consists of money that comes from us in the first place, does it not? What is it with ALL the idiots front and center these days?

Farrakhan is a self-styled militant marxist NAZI-esque muslim. If hitler and the reich were still around, farrakhan would be a high ranking official in the party.

Therefore, the majority of Americans, black, white, or otherwise, could care less about what he thinks about Christmas.
