I declare to you and to the entire world, that the man here in America who speaks for the majority, the downtrodden, dissatisfied black masses ... is this same man whom so many thousands of our people are flocking toward to see and hear ... this same Mr. Muhammad who is labeled by you as a Black Supremist, and as a Racist! If the 3 million middle-class Negroes are casting their ballots for integration and intermarriage ... what do the non-voting black masses who are in the minority want? Find out what the black masses want, and then perhaps America’s grave race problem can be solved. The black masses are tired of following these hand-picked Negro “leaders” who sound like professional beggars, as they cry year after year for white America to accept us as first-class citizens. Since this clergy-politician “leadership,” which was carefully hand-picked for us by the white man, has failed to solve the problem for the downtrodden black masses ... God Himself has stepped into the picture, and has made Messenger Elijah Muhammad a wise, fearless, and uncompromising spokesman for the 20 million black people here in America, who, behind the Divine Leadership of this man of God, will now never be satisfied until we have a home in a land that we can proudly call our own. We have accepted your invitation to come here to Yale University Law School this evening to let you know first hand why 20 million so-called Negroes cannot integrate with white America ... why white America, after 100 years of religious hypocrisy and political trickery will never accept us as first-class citizens here ... and why we must therefore seek some separate territory of our own. In your blind emotion, again many of you will cry out that this is wrong, that this is not religion, that this is not Islam ... that this is just another economic-political philosophy. I must remind you to keep an open mind. Let your own Christian bible be the judge: You credit Moses with being a religious man, a man of God, doing God’s work. Yet, what did Moses actually do? What did Moses teach? Moses freed his people from their slave master. Moses told the oppressor of his people: “Let my people go.” Moses separated his people from their masters, and then led them into a separate territory of their own. You admit Moses was a man of God, yet you will have to agree Moses did not teach integration. Moses taught separation. Moses didn’t take time to dwell on religious practices. He just let his people know that he represented the God of their forefathers, whose desire it was for them to be separated from their slave master and placed in a land that they could call their own. Mr. Muhammad’s message and mission today is the same as that of the biblical Moses. Mr. Muhammad is a modern Moses in this modern-day house of bondage. Many of you will cry out that you don’t go by what Moses said or did, but rather by what Jesus said. You claim that Jesus taught love and that Mr. Muhammad teaches hate.
