On Thursday, July 22, 2010 the police in London, England in the African community of Brixton, in broad daylight raided the Mosque of the Nation Of Islam. The international counter-insurgency of white power has used the decades old "war on drugs" as an excuse to wipe out and attack any notion of African people struggling for self-determination. This is the excuse, a search for a "marijuana farm", the police used in this attack on the NOI in Brixton in an attempt to criminalize any organizational effort for black freedom.

The Black Farmer Land loss is the greatest loss of physical wealth we have had in this country. What most don't realize is that the Politrics/Obama is indeed hustling black farmers again. Truly large amounts of money were handed out white law firms, in the first Pigford case but very little money was deposited to black farmers/black people.
