Black supremacy is a racist ideology which holds that black people are superior to other people and is most often thought of in connection with anti-white racism, anti-Semitism and bigotry towards non-black people.
In modern history, black supremacy is most evident among various religions or cults appealing mostly to young black men and to blacks with the lowest levels of education. Black supremacy, as with supremacism in general, is rooted in ethnocentrism and contains varying degrees of racism and xenophobia. Associations of black supremacy with calls for ethnic cleansing and racial separation are common, but not necessarily intrinsic. Due to the similar racist and separatist ideologies, many black supremacist organizations have joined forces with white supremacist or extremist organizations.
Nature
While black supremacism is viewed by human rights organisations and black leaders of the American Civil Rights Movement, such as Martin Luther King Jr. and Roy Wilkins, as equivalent to the white supremacy movement, , some African Americans consider black supremacy acceptable because of its message about black self-respect, black self-sufficiency and black economic improvement. Mortimer B. Zuckerman wrote in an 1992 article in U.S. News & World Report that Jesse Jackson, for instance, "has applauded minister Louis Farrakhan, whose basic message is of black supremacy over whites and hatred of Jews".
Others explain black supremacism as a form of Black rage. The term Black rage is derived from a book by psychologists, William Grier and Price Cobbs. In their work, Grier and Cobbs argue that many black people living in a predominately white and sometimes racist society are psychologically damaged by the effects of oppression and that this damage may cause some black people to think or behave in destructive ways.
Cornel West, professor of Religion at Princeton University, for instance, describes in his essay "Malcolm X and Black Rage" black supremacy as a reactionary phenomenon to counter white supremacy. He comments:
The basic aim of Black Muslim theology -- with its distinct Black supremacist account of the origins of white people -- was to counter white supremacy. Yet this preoccupation with white supremacy still allowed white people to serve as the principal point of reference. That which fundamentally motivates one still dictates the terms of what one thinks and does -- so the motivation of a Black supremacist doctrine reveals how obsessed one is with white supremacy….
Black rage was proposed, but not used, as defense for the Colin Ferguson mass murder trial. Ferguson murdered six white people and injured nineteen others. Ferguson's lawyers argued that he should not be held criminally liable, for actions which broke the law, because he was overcome with rage at society's racist discrimination against African-Americans. During a speech at Howard University, Khalid Abdul Muhammad, at that time spokesman of the Nation of Islam, later national chairman of the New Black Panther Party, lauded the actions of Colin Ferguson: "I love Colin Ferguson, who killed all those white folks on the Long Island train. God spoke to Colin Ferguson and said, 'catch the train, Colin, catch the train.'"
Contemporary black supremacist groups
Rastafari
Main article: Rastafari movementThe Rastafari movement was originally founded on principles that included a belief in the inherent wickedness of the white race and the superiority of the black race, though these beliefs rapidly evolved into a more universalist approach which accepts converts from all ethnicities. One of the three major Rastafari orders, the Bobo Ashanti Order of Rastafari, however, continues to adhere to a black supremacist doctrine.
Marcus Garvey, black nationalist and recognized Rasta prophet, believed that white achievements were due to white children being taught that they are superior. By the same token, he held that if black children are taught that they are superior, then there is a greater chance that they will succeed in life. Garvey faced criticism after he even met with prominent leader of the Ku Klux Klan. W.E.B. DuBois claimed that "Marcus Garvey is the most dangerous enemy of the Negro race in America and in the world" and Asa Philip Randolph and Chandler Owen, publisher of the Harlem magazine "The Messenger", called Garvey the "messenger boy of the Klan".
Along with the Holy Piby, the Royal Parchment Scroll of Black Supremacy, written during the 1920s by proto-Rastafarian preacher Fitz Balintine Pettersburg, is recognized as one of the root documents of Rastafarian thought. It influenced Jamaican Garveyite leaders of the 1920s, and was promulgated by early Rasta leader Leonard Howell, who adopted some of Garvey's black supremacist tenets. Howell used the Royal Parchment Scroll of Black Supremacy as the basis for his book The Promised Key (also published under the pseudo-Hindu name `Gangunguru Maragh' which supposedly means "teacher of famed wisdom", even though Gangunguru Maragh is not a Sanskrit or Hindi language name), which he wrote during his imprisonment in 1934-36.
Black Muslim groups
Nation of Islam
Main article: Nation of IslamIn the 1930s, the Nation of Islam emerged, coming to prominence during the 1960s, when charismatic minister Malcolm X became a spokesman for the movement.
The Nation of Islam teaches that white people were genetically engineered "devils", created to be liars and murderers. White people are held to be the enemies of all black people. The group's founders, "Master Fard" Muhammad and Elijah Muhammad, preached the Doctrine of Yakub, which held that the Original Man was an "Asiatic black man." White people, it contended, were "grafted" from black people 6,000 years ago by an ancient black scientist named Yakub. Besides the Yakub doctrine, it is the teaching of the Nation of Islam that Allah, (God) himself, is the original and supreme black man; that all black men today are a part of this God-race; and that the black race is thus divine and superior to all other races. It is also the teaching of the Nation of Islam that sometime in the future, Allah will bring a spaceship into the earth's atmosphere and bomb the cities of the world so that the unconverted white race will be purged from the earth.
The belief in sacrificial killing and ritualistic murder was part of the early Nation of Islam doctrine. Fard thought explicitly that it was the duty for every Muslim to offer as sacrifice four "Caucasian devils". A portion of Fard's lesson reads as follows:
Why does Fard Mohammad and any Moslem murder the devil? What is the duty of each Moslem in regard to four devils? What reward does a Moslem receive by presenting the four devils at one time? -- Because he is one hundred percent wicked and will not keep and obey the laws of Islam. His ways and actions are like a snake of the grafted type. So Mohammad learned that he could not reform the devils, so they had to be murdered. All Moslems will murder the devil because they know he is a snake and also if he be allowed to live, he would sting someone else. Each Moslem is required to bring four devils, and by bringing and presenting four at one time his reward is a button to wear on the laple of his coat, also a free transportation to the Holy City of Mecca. (Master Fard Mohammad, Lesson #1)".
Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan later argued that the lessons about murdering devils was only a metaphor designed to "rally NOI members to 'slay whites' psychological and social grip on them" but Fard's lessons on the murder of whites was taken literally and verbatim:
One afternoon in the early 1970s, when Ali K. Muslim, then Charles 41x, was guarding the temple, a man carrying a sack asked to meet a temple official. The man, thoroughly confused about Elijah Muhammad's teachings, believed that if he killed four white "devils" he would win a trip to the Holy Land. He had come to redeem his prizes. In the sack, Ali K. Muslim says, were four severed heads.
This ideology also culminated in the creation of the Death Angels, an offshoot of the Nation of Islam. Between 1972 and 1974, the Death Angels murdered 14 whites in the San Francisco Bay area. These murders would later become known as the Zebra murders because the police used Radio Z to keep up to date with them. Some members of the Zebra task force suspected that up to 71 murders in California could have been the work of the same group since only four Death Angels were convicted out of a believed fifteen. Since many victims were drawn from the homeless or hitchhikers there is no certainty about the actual numbers.
Elijah Muhammad also preached black self-reliance, black separatism, cooperative economics, strict moral and physical discipline, and opposition to black-white miscegenation. Since its founding, the NOI has gone through reorganizations and internal conflicts, but even as it moves closer to the mainstream of Islamic belief and practice (such as the observance of Ramadan, the Islamic holy month of fasting), Farrakhan's organization has not rejected any of Fard's doctrines. It opposes any changes in the major beliefs and programs that were instituted by Fard Muhammad and Elijah Muhammad, including the annual "Savior's Day".
Members of the NOI have been criticized for making anti-Semitic, anti-Catholic anti-white and anti-homosexual statements, even urging the murder of such people. Farrakhan has been banned from entering the UK since 1986 because of his "racist and anti-Semitic views".
Most historians and social scientists classify the Nation of Islam also as a black nationalist, or black separatist, organization. Recently, the Southern Poverty Law Center headed by Morris Dees placed the Nation of Islam on its list of hate groups.
A National Opinion Poll by the Joint Center for Political and Economic Studies in 1997 found that among blacks, a slight plurality of the population rate Farrakhan and his organization more favorably than unfavorably (40.1 to 36.8 percent) While elderly people, Christian conservatives and self-identified independents view Farrakhan least favorably, he is most favorably viewed by men, young people, and those with the lowest levels of education.
Most Muslims reject the Nation's ideas and even view it as heretical, for contradicting Islamic beliefs.
Nation of Gods and Earths
Main article: The Nation of Gods and EarthsThe Nation of Gods and Earths, also known as Five Percent Nation or the Five Percenters, is an offshoot of the Nation of Islam. It was founded in Harlem in the late 1960s by Clarence 13X, who proclaimed himself to be Allah (the Arabic term for God). "Five Percent" refers to the belief that they are the chosen five percent of all people who know and teach the truth. Five Percenters believe that each black man is God and therefore should take the name Allah. Like the Nation of Islam, the Five Percenters maintain that white people are devils created through a separate breeding process, known as "grafting." According to the Southern Poverty Law Center the Nation of Gods and Earths is viewed as a "violence-prone black supremacist prison gang".
New Black Panthers
Main article: New Black PanthersThe New Black Panthers or New Black Panther Party (NBPP), whose formal name is the New Black Panther Party for Self-Defense, is a U.S.-based black power organization founded in Dallas, Texas in 1989. The NBPP attracted many breakaway members of the Nation of Islam when former Nation of Islam minister and spokesman Khalid Abdul Muhammad, infamous for his virulent anti-Semitism and racism, became the national chairman of the group from the late 1990s until his death in 2001. The NBPP is currently led by Malik Zulu Shabazz, who is also known for anti-Semitic propaganda, racism and extremist hate speech.
Other black supremacist groups
United Nuwaubian Nation of Moors
Main article: United Nuwaubian Nation of MoorsThe United Nuwaubian Nation of Moors was founded by Dwight York who is considered to be "one of the most successful — and least known — black supremacist leaders in America". The Nuwaubians believe in black people's superiority to white people, that whites are "devils," devoid of both heart and soul, that the color of white people is the result of leprosy and genetic inferiority, and that the ancestors of white people are the sexual partners of dogs and jackals.
Among the different species of Apeman you have the black-haired Lar. This is where you get the word ‘lord,’ or master from. The Lares, plural for Lar, were recognized for their intelligence. These Lares were the head monkeys or spiritual monkeys, well known. This is where the word ‘monks’ comes from. Certain beings used the species known as the Baboon (part hyena, jackal and monkey) together with Orangutans for breeding. This resulted in your Behaymaw (called the beast of the field) type of carnivorous man called Mankind, one of the many species of Caucasians.
White people (sometimes also referred to as “Amorites”, “Hyksos”, “Canaanites”, “Tamahu”, or “Mankind”) are said in one myth to have been originally created as a race of killers to serve blacks as a slave army.
The Caucasian has not been chosen to lead the world. They lack true emotions in their creation. We never intended them to be peaceful. They were bred to be killers, with low reproduction levels and a short life span. What you call Negroid was to live 1,000 years each and the other humans 120 years. But the warrior seed of Caucasians only 60 years. They were only created to fight other invading races, to protect the God race Negroids. But they went insane, lost control when they were left unattended. They were never to taste blood. They did, and their true nature came out.… Because their reproduction levels were cut short, their sexual organs were made the smallest so that the female of their race will want to breed with Negroids to breed themselves out of existence after 6,000 years. It took 600 years to breed them, part man and part beast.
Nation of Yahweh
Main article: Nation of YahwehThe Nation of Yahweh is a black supremacist religious group that is an offshoot of the Black Hebrew Israelites line of thought, and was founded by Yahweh ben Yahweh, meaning "God the Son of God" in Hebrew, formerly known as Hulon Mitchell Jr. At its height, the Nation of Yahweh controlled an $8 million empire of properties, including a Miami headquarters known as the Temple of Love and temples in 22 states. Followers of the Nation of Yahweh view blacks as the only "true Jews" and believe that white Jews are the spawn of Satan.
According to the Crime Library, followers of the Nation of Yahweh formed a secret group called "The Brotherhood". To become a member of The Brotherhood, applicants had to kill a "white devil" and bring Mitchell a body part - an ear, nose or finger - as proof of the kill. Several Nation of Yahweh members were convicted of conspiracy in more than a dozen anti-white murders, among them Robert Rozier, a former pro football player and member of the secret Brotherhood, who admitted the killing of seven white people. Mitchell started a private school for his followers and held sex classes for boys and men in which he showed them movies of white women having sex with animals to dissuade them from lusting after white females.
Melanin Theory
Several black supremacists justify supremacist assertions with purported qualities of melanin based on distortions of scientific fact or speculation. This contention is known generally as "Melanin Theory", an agenda that has no scientific basis whatsoever. The central idea of this "Melanin Theory" is that the levels of melanin in dark skin naturally enhance intelligence and emotional, psychic and spiritual sensitivity and physical prowess.
Believers in melanin theory claim that the greater concentration of cutaneous melanin functions as a superconductor of sound and heat energy. Some assert that it can absorb electromagnetic radiation, others that it can convert light and magnetic fields to sound; that it can process information without reporting to the brain; and, further, that it is the chemical basis for what is commonly called "soul".
They also claim that, because neuromelanin, which is found in the substantia nigra (in Latin, literally "black substance") of the human brain, plays a role in the transmission of neuronal impulses, higher levels of melanin in skin enable nerve synapses to fire more quickly and efficiently as well, thereby enhancing the natural athleticism of blacks. However, no direct correlation between race and the level of melanin in the substantia nigra has been observed.
One of the most flawed notions of melanin theory is that whites are "mutants", that white skin is an aberration, a form of albinism. Melanin theorist Wade Nobles takes this notion even further, stating that only blacks are fully human because of their higher levels of skin melanin:
That in the evolution of the species, in what some people call the ontogenetic evolution of humankind, that in the evolution of the species the human family separated in a sense that one branch of the family stopped its evolutionary path and simply depended upon the central nervous system as the total machinery for understanding reality. Whereas, the root of the family continued its path and not only evolved a central nervous system but developed what I called at that time an essential melanic system. And that I even went so far as to try to develop a little formula and suggested that CNS + EMS = HB. CNS (Central Nervous System) + EMS (Essential Melanic System) = HB (Human Being). That the central nervous system combined with the essential melanic system is what makes you human. That, in fact, to be human is to be Black. To be human is to be Black. (Nobles 1989).
Others, such as psychiatrist and writer Frances Cress Welsing, express the same idea by their use of the term "hue-man" instead of "human,". Welsing is the author of "The Cress Theory of Color Confrontation" and "The Isis Papers: The Keys to the Colors", which in part ascribes certain purported, inherent and behavioral differences between blacks and whites to a "melanin deficiency" in whites:
On both St. Valentine’s Day and Mother’s Day, the white male gives gifts of chocolate candy with nuts…. If his sweetheart ingests "chocolate with nuts," the white male can fantasize that he is genetically equal to the Black male…. Is it not also curious that when white males are young and vigorous, they attempt to master the large brown balls, but as they become older and wiser, they psychologically resign themselves to their inability to master the large brown balls? Their focus then shifts masochistically to hitting the tiny white golf balls in disgust and resignation—in full final realization of white genetic recessiveness.
Welsing also claims that the prevalence of high blood pressure among African Americans is due to the fact that melanin exchanges "black photons" with other electrons and, therefore, picks up the negative energy vibrations from white people.
Welsing proposes that because it is so easy for pure whiteness to be genetically lost during interracial breeding, light-skinned peoples developed an aggressive colonial urge and their societies militaristically dominated others in order to preserve this light-skinned purity. This sort of idea is easy to discredit - besides its obvious reductionism (painting every topic in terms of race), it also contains the logical implication that we should expect the darkest-skinned peoples to have also developed similar anxieties and goals, since extremely dark skin is as subject to lightening as extremely light skin is to darkening. Welsing presented these ideas at a 2003 conference on race at Michigan State University, but seemed more interested in simply asserting them rather than having them critically evaluated and molded into an actual developing theory.
Melanin theorist Carol Barnes claims that white scientists have deliberately created drugs such as cocaine, which are specially structured to chemically bind with melanin. Barnes claims that melanin and cocaine have a high affinity for each other because both are alkaloids, and that blacks get addicted faster, stay addicted longer, can test positive for cocaine even a year after its most recent use, and suffer more from these drugs because cocaine co-polymerizes into melanin. Yet, melanin is not an alkaloid, and there is no evidence that melanin co-polymerizes with cocaine in vivo. He further writes in his book "Melanin: The Chemical Key to Black Greatness":
Melanin is responsible for the existence of civilization, philosophy, religion, truth, justice, and righteousness. Individuals (whites) containing low levels of Melanin will behave in a barbaric manner. Melanin gives humans the ability to FEEL because it is the absorber of all frequencies of energy. Since whites have the least amount of Melanin, this is why they are perceived by People of Color as generally being rigid, unfeeling (heartless), cold, calculating, mental, and "unspiritual."
This hypothesis is supported by black academic Leonard Jeffries, who was dismissed in 1992 from his post as chairman of the Harlem's City College Black Studies department for having allegedly made anti-Semitic statements. Jeffries claims that the pigment melanin is the source of intelligence and creativity. He divides humanity into African “sun people” and European “ice people,” the latter being not only melanin-deficient but born cold and greedy, militaristic, authoritarian, and possessed of a host of other racially determined defects.
Most scientists consider Melanin Theory pseudoscience; it has no credibility in mainstream medicine or science.
Black supremacy in U.S. politics
The U.S. Civil Rights Movement and charges of black supremacy
The doctrine of black supremacy led to a division in the African-American Civil Rights Movement which was aimed at abolishing racial discrimination of African Americans. While more mainstream civil rights organizations stood against both black and white supremacy and adopted Martin Luther King, Jr.'s Gandhian approach of nonviolent direct action, the election of Stokely Carmichael (later Kwame Toure) as SNCC chairman in May 1966 marked the radicalization of the movement. Under Stokely Carmichael, the SNCC, originally organized in 1960 to encourage voter registration for blacks in the Deep South, turned away from the pacifist mainstream civil rights movement , expelled its white staff and volunteers who had supported it in the past, pushed for black nationalism and advocated black supremacy . As the organization shifted to a more violent stance, it changed its name from "Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee" to "Student National Coordinating Committee". The strains between SNCC and civil rights leaders like King reached a breaking point as SNCC consciously identified itself with more radical ideas, and mainstream civil rights organizations distanced themselves from SNCC. The FBI blamed Carmichael and H. Rap Brown, another African-American political figure, for the civil disorders of the 1960s in several Amercan cities. Further, COINTELPRO reported that Carmichael and SNCC advocated "black supremacy". By 1967, the United States Department of Defense stated:
SNCC can no longer be considered a civil rights group. It has become a racist organization with black supremacy ideals and an expressed hatred for whites. It employs violent and militant measures which may be defined as extreme when compared with those of more moderate groups.
Carmichael, who was declared persona non grata and banned from France, England and 30 territories of the former British Empire and in 1970 from his place of birth, Trinidad and Tobago, by a black-led government which feared he would further the islands' own "Black Power" revolt , dismissed such charges, attributing them to white paranoia and deliberate disinformation by COINTELPRO to actively disrupt the movement and to discredit it.
Carmichael further called for the black supremacist movement to smash everything that European civilization had created. As fires raged in Detroit and Newark, Carmichael became associated "with riots and guns and 'burn, baby, burn.'" In Havana, Cuba, Carmicahel acknowledged his intentions to arm and train urban gureillas which would engage in armed conflict with white Americans, saying "it is going to be a fight to the death." Carmichael even opposed the Black Panther Party on black supremacist grounds; he could not accept what he viewed as the party's "alliances with white radicals." Interestingly, Carmichael dated white women as a youth, but later hated himself for it.
Martin Luther King, Jr. addressed the dangers of black supremacism in his famous speech "The American Dream" on June 6, 1961, at Lincoln University:
At times we begin to talk about racial separation instead of racial integration, feeling that there is no other way out. My only answer is that the problem never will be solved by substituting one tyranny for another. Black supremacy is as dangerous as white supremacy, and God is not interested merely in the freedom of black men and brown men and yellow men. God is interested in the freedom of the whole human race and in the creation of a society where all men can live together as brothers, where every man will respect the dignity and the worth of human personality.
In The Twenty-First Century
Black supremacy occasionally is advocated in politics. Former North Carolina State University professor Kamau Kambon received applause from the black audience at a forum on Hurricane Katrina media coverage at Howard University Law School when he suggested that the solution to black problems was to "exterminate the white people" Asked to comment on the incident, African American Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson stated in an American political debate television program on the Fox News Channel that Kamau Kambon is "representative of most racist blacks like the so-called civil rights leaders".
Keith Maurice Ellison, who has dropped his Islamic name, Hakim, for the race , became the first black Muslim with ties to the Nation of Islam to be elected to the United States Congress when he won the open seat for Minnesota's 5th congressional district in the House of Representatives in 2006. He is considered to be "Farrakhan's Candidate" and a "racist fascist" "Muslim radical" by the Frontpage Magazine and "Louis Farrakhan's First Congressman" by The Weekly Standard On January 10, 2007 Ellison was appointed to the Judiciary Committee.
Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick was at the center of racial controversy in 2006 when, at an NAACP event to raise funds to defeat a state anti-affirmative action measure that ultimately passed , he echoed the notorious formulation of segregationist Alabama governor George Wallace, replacing the word "segregation" with "affirmative action”. Kilpatrick called for the eternal discrimination of whites when he proclaimed, "We will affirm to the world that affirmative action will be here today, it will be here tomorrow and there will be affirmative action in the state forever."

Black supremacism in music
Many rap and hip-hop artists, among them Lauryn Hill , Nas, Wu-Tang Clan, Public Enemy, KRS-One, Ice Cube, MC Ren, X-Clan and Queen Latifah, have been supportive of various black supremacist groups, such as the Nation of Islam, New Black Panther party, and the Five Percenters. Black supremacist writer Cedric Muhammed even claims that "there was no greater "outside" influence, during Hip-Hop's most "conscious" era, on the lyrics of leading Hip-Hop arists", than the teachings of the 5% Nation and the Lost-Found Nation of Islam.
Some rap artists propagate anti-white hatred in their lyrics. Include lyrics such as "kill whitey," "the white man is the devil," or "slitting the crackers' throats" along with calls for black domination. Rap artist Ice Cube proclaimed his belief in black supremacy and his membership in the Nation of Islam with lyrics on his album Lethal Injection and Da Lench Mob's second CD:
Nigga, is you down, 'cause it's the Final Call . . . This is the Final Call, on black man and black woman, rich and poor. Rise up . . . come together for this black mastery.
I kill more crackas then Bosnia, Herzegovina each and every day out a siztre Chevrolet with the heavy A to the muthafuckin K now you treat me like a germ cause your scared of the super sperm...Elijah is alive, Lewis Farrakhan, NOI, Bloods and Crips and little ol me and we all gettin ready for the enemy.
Alliances with white supremacist groups
Due to some commonly held racialist and separatist ideologies, some black supremacist organizations have found limited common cause with white supremacist or extremist organizations.
Marcus Garvey invited a Ku Klux Klan spokesman to speak at one of his rallies and, according to Dinesh D'Souza, also arranged "secret meetings with the Grand Cyclops of the Invisible Empire of the Ku Klux Klan" to seek financial aid to transport blacks to Africa.
The Nation of Islam has ties to George Lincoln Rockwell's American Nazi Party, both of which are known for their anti-Jewish sentiments. The NOI and has a working relationship with the organization of wealthy economist and outsider politico Lyndon LaRouche, widely considered a neo-fascist by the mainstream media. In 1965, after breaking with the Nation of Islam and denouncing its separatist doctrine, Malcolm X told his followers that the Nation of Islam under Elijah Muhammad had made agreements with the American Nazi Party and the Ku Klux Klan that "were not in the interests of Negros." In 1985, Louis Farrakhan invited white supremacist Tom Metzger, leader of the White Aryan Resistance (a neo-Nazi white power group), to attend a NOI gathering. The Washington Times reports Metzger's words of praise: "They speak out against the Jews and the oppressors in Washington. ... They are the black counterpart to us." The NOI also has established working relationships with a number of multi-ethnic organizations, including the Unification Church.
Tom Metzger also spoke at the "National Black Power Summit and Youth Rally," hosted by the New Black Panther Party.
Robert L. Brock, an African-American anti-Semite, prominently allies himself with white supremacists. Sympathizing with the Christian Identity Movement, Brock was invited to speak at the "Jubilation Celebration and Conference" in 1994, along with Louis Beam, a former Klansman now active with the Aryan Nations. In 1988, Brock, dressed in a Ku Klux Klan robe, attended a Christian Identity event hosted by Pete Peters. Brock also takes part as guest speaker at the Annual Gatherings of the German nationalist party Deutsche Volksunion (German People Union), supporters of the W.A.R. (White Aryan Resistance) movement. As a member of both the Liberty Lobby and the right-wing Populist Party (organizations founded by anti-Semite Willis Carto) Brock spoke on radio programs and authored several articles in the weekly Liberty Lobby newspaper The Spotlight, proclaiming his belief in the purity of the races and the desirability of racial segregation. Emphasizing the anti-Jewish and anti-immigrant aspects of his politics to cement an alliance of convenience with white supremacist organizations, Brock also maintains a close relationship with Holocaust-denier and Adelaide Institute founder Fredrick Toben, the Institute for Historical Review (IHR) editor Mark Weber and German American National Political Action Committee Chairman Hans Schmidt.

See also Amunnubi Raakhptah’s 9 Principles in the Human Being where he writes (p. 33): “The First Thing That All Nubuns Or Their Offspring Nubian Must Know Is That The Caucasoids Did Not And Still Don’t Produce Any Data On Negroids. Nothing You Read About In The Medical Field Applied To Negroids. It All Pertains To The Chemical Make Up Of The Caucasoid Bodies. Nothing In The Mental Field Of The Psychiatrist Pertains To The Negroids. The Caucasoids Cannot Evaluate Our Mental Stability, Or Try To Decipher Why We Do What We Do Because We Do Not Think Or Feel The Way They Do. Nor Do The Caucasoids Know Anything About Us Spiritually. The Caucasoids Are Carnivorous Mammals, Who Are Flesh Eating Killers By Nature. Mongoloids And Others Are Human, Also Mammals Because They Are Mixed. Some Are Carnivores And Some Are Herbivores By Nature. And We Are Deities, Herbivores By Nature Who Are Their Mothers And Fathers. The Caucasoid Were All Grafted From Us, And Mixed With Other Beast To Make Their Beast Like Nature.” - "" Apologetics Index. undated.
