White Folks becoming the new minority According to the U.S. Census Bureau, Population Division, the “non-hispanic white population is decreasing”. The Census Bureau predicts that by the turn of the century, “less than 53 percent would be non-Hispanic White 16 percent would be Black; 23 percent would be Hispanic origin; 10 percent would be Asian and Pacific Islander; and about 1 percent would be American Indian, Eskimo, and Aleut.” The Census Bureau reports that “The U.S. population growth rate is slowing” and that Non-Hispanic Whites are “the slowest growing group” Before 1990, whites made up almost 75 percent of the total population, but between 1990 and 2000 contributed only 35 percent of the total population growth between 1990 and 2000, and decreased again to 23 percent between 2000 and 2010. According Census Bureau’s middle-series projection, the Black population would increase over 20 million by 2030. And the Black population would double its present size to 62 million by 2050. But, the Census predicts that the fastest growing race groups will continue to be the Asian and Pacific Islander population with annual growth rates that may triple by 2020, and increase to more than 5 times its current size, to 41 million by 2050. Projections show growth of the be the largest growing group - 45 percent from 2010 to 2030, and 60 percent from 2030 to 2050. The two major components driving the population growth are fertility (births) and immigration. According to the middle series, the number of births each year would exceed the highest annual number of births ever achieved in the United States. In fact, about 86 percent of the population growth during the year 2050 may be due to the effects of post-1992 immigration. It’s no wonder why Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg (a white woman) told the New York Times, during an interview published July 7, 2009, that legalizing abortions was "about population growth and particularly growth in populations that we don’t want to have too many of."

Allah’s Blessing By Minister Khalil Muhammad In The Name of Allah Who Came To Us In The Divine Person of Master Fard Muhammad To Whom All Holy Praise Is Due Forever, And In The Name of His Last And Most Surely, His Greatest Messenger, Our Divine, Leader, Teacher And Perfect Guide, The Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad. I greet you all in our Nation`s greeting words of peace, As Salaam Alaikum. The subject, I have chosen, is taken from the Holy Quran Sura (Chapter) 29 Al-Ankabut: The Spider, SECTION 6: Warning and Consolation, Say, Allah is sufficient as a witness between me and you-He knows what is in the heavens and the earth. And they ask thee to hasten on the chastisement. And had not a term been appointed, the chastisement would certainly have come to them all of a sudden, while they perceive not. They ask thee to hasten on the chastisement, and surely hell encompasses the disbelievers. The day when the chastisement will cover them from above them, and from beneath their feet. And

He will say: Taste what you did. O My servants who believe, surely My earth is vast, so serve Me only. Every soul must taste of death, then to Us you will be returned. And those who believe and do good, We shall certainly give them an abode in high places in Garden wherein flow rivers, abiding therein. Excellent the reward of the workers, Who are patient and on their Lord they rely. And how many a living creature carries not its sustenance, Allah sustains it and yourselves. And He is Hearing, the Knowing. And if thou ask them, Who created the heavens and the earth and made the sun and the moon subservient? they then turned away? Allah makes abundant the means of subsistence, straitens (them) for him. Surely Allah, Nay, most of them understand not.

What wonderful words of The Holy Quran! Here, Allah lets us know that He is the Best Knower and those that disbelieve in Him will surely die. And then Allah says that they will ask for the chastisement to be speeded up. The Honorable Elijah Muhammad said to us that the devil would become so sick of his own evil that he, himself, would

ask for his own end to come, "Think Over That". Allah goes on to say that the chastisement will come from above. This reference I believe is referring to the "Wheel" or Mother Plane". All Praise is due to Master Fard Muhammad.. and from beneath their feet, in the form of "Fire" from the bombs dropped from the Baby Planes . Allah-u-Akbar! Allah then assures Us that we will get a Great Reward if we are workers, meaning working in the cause of Islam. The Honorable Elijah Muhammad stated to Us, that when Allah returns, let Him find Us working. This section has clearly shown us that Allah has all power, He has warned us of the chastisement for disbelief and He has consoled us with good news, if we obey Him and are found working. The Messenger of Allah Teaches Us, From The Great Book ,The Fall of America, Remember the people of Noah had no prophets nor scripture before Noah. Again, remember ,that even as

Minister Khalil Muhammad the Israelites, had no previous scriptures before Moses. You, Black brother, are better off. You have all of the whole six thousand years of the white man on the planet earth. Will you be so foolish as to delay in making a good decision until you( as the Holy Quran and the Bible teaches us) see “the angels coming in the clouds” before you make up your mind? Maybe you would, even reject that. But as the Holy Quran teaches you, When the angels come in the clouds of heaven they will not be coming to do anything like preaching or giving you further knowledge. It is prophesied that on the Day of Judgment the angels will come to execute judgment on you for not believing and to save those who do believe.

Black people in America suffer from Stockholm Syndrome By

Brother David Muhsin DETROIT, Mich.--When you look at this title a few questions may arise like, what is Stockholm Syndrome, how did we get it, how long have we had it, and what is the cure? In this article I plan to answer these questions and take an in depth look into Stockholm Syndrome and into how it relates to black men and women in America. Basically Stockholm Syndrome is a disorder normally associated with hostage victims, who develop compassion and even loyalty for the one who has captured them. Signs of Stockholm Syndrome are also commonly found in abusive relationships, wherein the victim of the abuse doesn’t want to leave the abuser. Before I go further into how Stockholm Syndrome relates to us as black people, let’s look at some history on this disorder. The disorder got its name from Stockholm, Sweeden. In 1973 there was a bank robbery in Stockholm, where 4 hostage victims were held in a vault from August 23 to August 28. After 5 days (130 hours), the hostages were finally released. When they were in-

terviewed and questioned about the incident the victims looked upon there situation as a positive one. Some even defended the robbers. They didn’t even want to testify against the bank robbers, saying that they were more afraid of the police who where trying to save them. This obviously came as a surprise to the police and also the psychiatrist (Nils Bejerot) assigned to help with the hostage negotiation. Nills Bejerot, after witnessing this ordeal, gave the condition the name Stockholm Syndrome, Since 1973 the condition is known quite commonly among law enforcement and Psychiatrist. The explanation for this disorder, is very similar to the reason many victims of domestic abuse stay loyal to there abuser. Domestic abuse victims Fear being helped, because any acceptance of help causes a confrontation with there abuser and makes the victims situation risky, so they shut out any form of assistance, in order to eliminate making the situation worst. Psychiatrist say that this curious reaction is a defense mechanism for the victim to ensure his or her safety and a natural response, not unlike the reaction a

child has to a dominant adult figure. Studies show that Stockholm syndrome almost never occurs in situations where the abuser or captor is completely abusive; the loyalty and compassion builds when some form of kindness is displayed, or at least what appears to the victim as kindness. Kindness in these situations could be merely a lack of abuse. Examples, such as allowing the captured to use the rest room, walk around freely untied, or simply eat. These are things you have a natural right to do, but since the captor has control over your life, the victim will praise them for allowing to do so. Not unlike my black brothers and sisters in America who praise the white government for giving them “Civil Rights”, or applaud Abraham Lincoln for (so-called) freeing the slaves. When you look at it, you should naturally have civil rights. You are naturally free. If someone has to give you these things, that all humans beings are supposed to have, naturally, then they must have been previously taken away. Which brings me to how we got Stockholm Syndrome. In case you don’t already now we have been held in captivity for over 400

Brother David Muhsin years. Thoughout this time, we have received some of the worst treatment the world has ever seen. Remember, the hostages in Stockholm were only held for 5 days and they had the whole disorder named after them. It is my theory that black people in America suffer from a severe case of Stockholm Syndrome. That’s the only explanation for why many Black people will defend white people in the face of our 400 year old abusive relationship with them.
