greeting and welcome to thirty two of these timely and powerful broadcasts on the subject the time and what must be done the ministers say that the scriptures make it abundantly clear that you and i we are the agent of change that we are looking for but you and i have to be willing to make that change within  in part thirty of the time in what must be done the honorable minister louis farrakhan introduced the economic blueprint of the honorable elijah mohammed to in poverty and one among people the honorable elijah mohammed first introduced this program in one thousand nine hundred sixty five and said if we can just save five cents a day from our wages twenty five cents a week for fifty two weeks in the year if we could put aside thirteen dollars a year we could save in a national savings treasury sixty five million dollars in one year that hundred sixty five when he wrote this and at that time we numbered twenty two million people and approximately five million wage earners here we are fo eight years later our population has increased to over forty million people with a workforce of about sixteen million wage earners so the minister advanced that if we contributed that same nickel a day and we do it seven days a week that's thirty five cents a week eighteen dollars and twenty cents a year multiplied by sixteen million of us in the workforce we could have in one year two hundred ninety one million two hundred thousand dollars look at the power of what pennies nickels and dimes could do and what  could produce if we work together and unite we can solve ninety five percent of the problems we face and we will be more successful more powerful and in the words of minister more able to do the things that as individuals working by we have never been able to accomplish let us now see the conclusion of the ministers his story say because de address and at the end i will be back with instructions on how we can begin to support this program and now know how much we spend on books keep us poor and the merchants of other communities rich so when we analyze this we have to agree that our whole way of thinking about money has to change so the scripture says we conform to this world but be transformed by the removing of your mind so regardless to what religion we belong to our religion obviously not informing us on how to spend our money so we think we are god centered while we are financially illiterate the problem is that we are not really god sent to we have been deceived into thinking we are god centered but we can never be god sent that if we do not know principles of frugality and wise spending of what god gives us he tells us in the  what we have given you not spend all of what we have given you the koran moderation how can a poor man all woman with bad habits save anything i know that some muslims think we are god send but we are a world living from one week to the next and i have to tell you when i became a follower of the most honorable elijah mohammed and gave up show business i was making forty five dollars a week they took ninety cents out and i got forty four dollars and ten cents and out of that i fit my wife my family paid my rent and always had something to give in charity we did not have a lot but the necessities of life we had because we did not violate that we could live for less and accomplish more all by just being what he asked us to be and it is our deviation from that that has some us economically yeah you're all right i'm almost there i'm going to say this and get off it quick i don't want a big heavy doc cloud to come over all of us you know there's a saying in the bible this and adultery see their combined you're married have children if you have girlfriends you have a problem asked my sister not telling the truth if you've only laid out when a man you're going to ask him to help pay your bill friends and you don't give enough from your job that's when you st can you afford a five hundred dollars due on your head then they turn around and feed us drugs they feed us alcohol see the second amendment does not deal with us they want  you have to protect yourself from them because this savage so they feed the alcohol they feed to drugs they take young girls in the back and have their way with them the lotteries and everything that corrodes and destroys our fabric yes they do many of our palestinian brothers big like that now just you know j c penney built a retail empire i am without compromising the baptist principles that he strongly believed in he didn't small or drink and wouldn't allow his employees to do that he did he said i would rather be known as a christian murky if j c penney and if any of those who work for him had extra curricular activities outside of their marriage he fired them because he so he got rid of the it that's why they have come home and to help us with an economic plan now i want to quickly go to how we became a nation of consumer did you know this is learned behavior from my experience and slavery and then the share cropping system but we must know why history to understand it when most blacks emerge from slavery most of us trying to get as far away foremostly masters and their plantations as possible we even set up more than sixty all black towns where we had our own government and began a strong tradition of do for self without the oversight of our former slave masters and many of these sixty black towns were in indian territory did you know that the native people have lots of land and resources mineral spring to day but the enemy is right on indian land take in the gas take in the rain here take in whatever the la and giving them nothing suppose we made a promise found a way to unite and we help them with the knowledge we have and the they began to set up a series of laws that came to be known as jim crow laws their purpose was to return the blacks as close as possible to the state of slavery that we had previously been in and most important to force us back into the cotton fields to keep the cotton based economy from collapsing under these wicked laws money in the hands of blacks was treated as though it was weapon of mass destruction whites made it illegal to sell property to blacks and blacks were forbidden by law to sell their own farm products without written permission from a caucasian thus criminalizing black business enterprise we couldn't get justice in the court system because they came up with a law that said ne testimony would not be accepted unless that testimony was verified by a white man a white man could walk into your home take whatever he wanted including your  black civil war veterans found most churches charities all opened a total of four hundred and eighty thousand accounts with assets worth nearly four million dollars in today's currency that would be five point eight billion in today's dollars now when blacks head that plan no money and draining the bank of every last pin leaving tens of thousands of its black depositors in economic ruin there was no deposit insurance so we were left with an almost to distrust of the banking system so between government trickery and the widespread cheating by retail merchants and the legal system that prohibited blacks from complaining black began their so call american citizenship economically exploited and badly crippled since this is black history month w e b dubois estimated that in time from the so called emancipation proclamation in eight hundred sixty five to the end of the eighteen hundreds three quarters of the wages due to blacks that seventy five cents of every dollar was stolen from us blacks responded to this oppression in what appeared to be a very logical way by becoming fast spend this so the moment we got our money with the all the price merchants who left us with nothing we wanted to use our money wisely but the economic and legal system punished us when we did so our response to this wicke logical but it set in motion a damaging spend as you get it mindset that continues to this very hour just a moment to this effect has created in us what his become a greater evil we've become a consumer nation our way everybody else is benefiting so instead of allowing the robbery to make us w in protecting our money we allowed ourselves to become consume was all the way from then to now they took away our savings and now they made us hear of it back to them as a consumer so today you don't trust banks you don't trust courts you don't even trust yourselves so the most honorable elijah mohammed said this very hard for an economist to plan a wise program and see his plans carried out away from economics because of all of the abuse and the barriers of the marketplace that forced us out of that room and every immigrant group finds a way to muscle into the black community did it take from us whatever they need to build their communities and exult themselves in the fabric of america so all of them will fight against anybody who comes to us with an economic plan that would risk control of the black back into black hands don't you know six cents of every dollar we spend is all we spend with black business and according to one study because in days if we doubled that to twelve cents that alone would create nearly six hundred thousand additional jobs for black workers and that would reduce the black unemployment rate by more and three points from thirteen point eight percent to ten point six percent don't tell me we don't have the power we just have never used it why how i want you to put up the map of  africa is our destiny some say if we are separating why are you making plans to buy land in america are we planning to stay here america canada europe eastern europe india china japan oh can fit inside of africa's borders the land mass is just that big and if it were properly what should our relationship said this of africa black people of africa and asia true friends but is it a place we in america should now look to return he said to me one day rather from all over africa i looked out the plain and looked the land this time i had it's been used to billions of years but this popped america it was a wilderness the land here is virgin right now we are witnessing a scramble for africa just as it happened almost one hundred thirty years ago themselves but just like true busses true predators they began our knowing with one another and finding each of them which led to world war one where all of the european nations were involved we have this map of africa so once again there's a new scramble for africa by europe and america they are after the huge quantity of natural resources that they want and need to have under their control almost every no natural resource needed to run the western industrial farming but at what price all we want we got a billion two hundred fifty million people we need access to food we need certain things so they want to cooperate with africa while a so we say to america there's no mineral resource that africa has that you will not be able to have access to if you want to do you failing with africa if you give africans a decent price for what you would like to extract from africa that would enable africa to increase their service to their own people and instead of these covert helpful and support good leadership in africa leaders that love the people want the wealth of africa for africa's then if you negotiate fairly with them then oh can benefit this is why america and europe that they had to get rid of could daffy because he was an impediment in their minds to what they want wanted to treat africa right but you you killed my brother you want to put your hands on me in fact you'll plotting it as i'm speaking you see it is my mo i want to read you something a black girl working for c n n was filming convention the democratic convention and some white folks threw some popcorn you like to take barack obama and his lovely wife from the shale and paint them as remnants of the gorilla let me give you the mirror to look at come it's all about the resources on the african soil and who possess them so right now moving to africa is not a wise thing and i'll tell you why oh oh prime minister david cameron you said you would like to stay in mali and the neighboring countries and it may require a response that is about years even decades let me tell you something bomb and people in pakistan yemen somalia north africa in mali now the united states has warned that it is sending us special forces troops as trainers and advisers see that's the farrakhan i don't want to go so hard maybe but just thinking about you china is a big player in this african disaster they've made deals with african leaders and how america all you got is your military you got no money to spend in africa but you're printing it up every day so all you have is your weapons of war all we can in that so quick got send them to us we work cheap we'll give you good quality shirts and then not last so a lot of our business man a doing business with china but let me tell you a little something businessman while you mak money think about increasingly sees china as an enemy they are literally preparing plans for china right now so if you have a business like walmart is based on what you bring from china what would wall with china do to you and to walmart and to every business in between so you do business with china as long as you can make a profit save on vests made here because america is the place of the future we are a people of forty six to fifty million a nation within a nation now i'm closing on this concept see we believe in separation let you into the bedroom and keep you right at the door of the board room separation is not a foreign concept it's what you're doing at this very moment everywhere you've gone you are in iraq now the british were there before you they made borders and put people together that were of different ethnicities and tribal backgrounds knowing that in the future you would turn one against the other for your own purposes now you are in iraq and you saying that you would like to see iraq separated into three areas it's one country it was but you want to kurds in the north the shia in the south and the sunni's in the center you like separation when it suits your purpose now you in syria you  speaking people of comeback in canada one the state of their own yugoslavia was one great nation under marshall tito but as you went into possible and you broke up and separated them now you have several different nations that once were one so let's look into the mirror here right here right here since the reelection of president obama they ones in texas and a few more all they have to do is raise twenty five thousand in signatures and the white house is supposed to respond president obama has not
