The United Nation of Islam (UNOI) is a black American religious movement based in Kansas City, Kansas. It was founded in 1978 as an offshoot of the Nation of Islam by Royall Jenkins, who continued to be the group’s leader until he died in September 2021 of complications resulting from COVID-19. He styled himself “Royall, Allah in Person”. Since its founding, the group has undergone numerous name changes and is currently known as the Value Creators.
The beliefs of the UNOI are based on the beliefs of the NOI with considerable modifications by Jenkins. While believing that Allah came in the person of Wallace Fard Muhammad, founder of the NOI, Jenkins claims that he himself is Allah in his own person who is more powerful and who is given the task of coercing the submission of all things and perfecting everything used to magnify Him, after which men [specifically males] will all be God,[3] or gods.[4]
Jenkins stresses the relations between different races and sexes, referring extensively to black man, black woman, and white man. Black men are said to be the real and original men,[5] whereas white people are claimed to have been created by a scientist named Yakub 6,000 years ago, the same belief held, at least in a metaphorical sense, by followers of the NOI prior to the death of Elijah Muhammad. Jenkins also claims that black men created black women as a natural pleasure, that women are inferior, and that following female guidance leads to Hell.[6] He believes that black women are in league with white men, whom he considers enemies, and condemns women seeking child support, custody, and alimony through courts.[7][8]
Jenkins also claims that the current NOI has been led astray by its leader Louis Farrakhan, whom he asserts is the most “formidable enemy to Allah,”[9] and that Farrakhan uses tricks and deceptive tactics to “silence anyone else’s voice” and “prepare the masses to fight for him,” through appearing “to be against the Whiteman [sic] and his government.”[10]
I knew I would eventually find that God had found a way to bring something good out of COVID-19.
