| Answer the call to stand for justice |
| Past time to demand and live up to it |

In the book of the Prophet Isaiah, (Peace and Blessings Be upon Him), It states: "Justice stands afar off and equity cannot enter because truth has fallen into the streets." The question is... What is that Truth?
The Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad teaches us that "Justice is the principal of fair dealings and it's the law that distinguishes between right and wrong and is the weapon that God will use in the Day of Judgment." That day is now because the man of sin is being revealed which should usher in the falling away - coming out of her. This is the time for you to not only know the truth but Do by that which you know the truth, that you will be made free from the now open enemy of God.
In scripture, God is to choose a people, despised and rejected - the foolish He will make wise. Who best fits the description but the black man and woman of America? We've been so thoroughly miseducated, mistreated as to our present condition that there's no mistake about it. We even despise and repeat ourselves in all of our dealings with one another. So much so that our ignorance produces the arrogance that feeds our apathy, which gives away to murder of us by us and there’s no protest about it.
Once again, right here in Charlotte, as in cities all across these "United Snakes", we were denied justice under their law in the slaying of yet another unarmed black man (Brother Jonathan Ferrell) by another white officer of the law. I mean, we had to see this injustice coming, right? We have to recognize the blatant pattern of disregard for black life - male and female, right? We've been down this Death Valley before in the Queen City. Surely we understand that we cannot expect justice from an un-just system right? Have we not learned from the distinction between the terms legal, unlawful and justice? It's all semantics.
Hint: The real criminal has a satanic mindset that produces a system that justifies their unlawful acts... which they make legal in their government legislatures general assemblies with your unwilling permission because you voted them in to do exactly what they are doing. But what does justice look like? You/we never had it, so it's an elusive yearning. For far too long, we have considered ourselves of no value of any consequence... Copy-cat criminals. Thus building a stereotypical profile.
While on his latest series of lecture tours, "Justice or Else," the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan stated: "History is Meeting with the Circumstances of the time." His frame of reference for such an assertion is rooted within the scriptures of both the Bible and the Holy Quran. The practical revelation and application of this time remains hidden to the faithless, fearful and foolish people. The go along to get along folks. The victim who is quick to forgive the villain even before the villain asks for forgiveness (Charleston shooting). I doubt very seriously he was going to ask for forgiveness anyways. Some refer to them as the blind, deaf and dumb – scared to death Negroes who acquiesce themselves to the slave master in the 21st century instead of the real master, God.
It is through this miseducation, misinterpretation of scripture, we have fallen into this pit of hell unable to identify and relate to the description of God's Chosen People. Our thinking and behavior is so distorted that in 2015 our youth still consider themselves as 'niggas.’ They don't realize that the man that God made in his image and after his likeness are the original people and not niggas or niggers.
We were taught the way we were treated and taught to have the value of nothing. But is that nothing that God is now using to make something at the bottom rise to the top? The last shall be first, the Bible teaches us; the tail to be made the head. God, Himself, has chosen us out of the furnace of affliction for this time and especially our youth.
Twenty years ago, October 1995, Minister Farrakhan conducted the largest gathering to date on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C. The historic Million Man March purposed and challenged the black man to atonement, reconciliation and responsibility. Its success resonated throughout the world. On the 20th anniversary, October 10, 1995, His clarion call for “Justice or Else” summons the entire family of the oppressed women, children and men of all colors. We owe a debt to our ancestors that should begin to remit by making this sacrifice and support this sojourn by responding to a call that no other person could make but Farrakhan.
No longer can we accept the status quo of fear and passing down to another generation a legacy of cowardice. Find courage in your closet if must be. In his writings, The Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad states: “It is natural for man to love freedom for himself. For freedom is essential to life and to love justice for himself. For without justice, there is no joy in freedom and equality."
The time is NOW. What are YOU prepared to do for yourself and our future..... for Justice or Else?
Mikal Muhammad lives in Charlotte.
