The mother of an eight-year-old wants to know why a Tennessee school teacher gave her child a handout from the Nation of Islam that portrayed the presidents on Mount Rushmore as being racists.

The handout then explains that George Washington hailed from Virginia, a “prime breeder of black people.” Of Theodore Roosevelt, it was alleged he called Africans “ape-like.” There were also disparaging remarks made of Thomas Jefferson (he enslaved 200 Africans) and Abraham Lincoln.

“The Prophet said, “Listen and obey (your chief) even if an Ethiopian whose head is like a raisin were made your chief.” Color blind too!

Racism? It was Islam which made SLAVES .... as they do today

Nation of Islam preaches that White Man's Heaven is Black Man's Hell. They also preach that Christianity enslaves and Islam frees men. MLK Jr. thought they were as vile as the KKK.
