Farrakhan Takes Up For Kanye West

Isn’t this interesting? Minister Louis Farrakhan of the Nation of Islam has stood up for Kanye West.

It all started when ‘Ye appeared on The Breakfast Club and proclaimed: “black people don’t have the same level of connections as Jewish people,” causing an backlash from the Jewish Anti-Defamation League. The ADL’s outraged National Director, Abraham H. Foxman asked for an apology from West, claiming his remarks are “offensive” and represents “classic anti-semitism” by reinforcing the cultural stereotype that wealthy Jewish citizens are “all-powerful and control the levers of power in government.”

Well it seems Minister Farrakhan had spoken.

In Farrakhan’s own words: “You know what Mr. Foxman? I wish you and I could have a dialogue. You wouldn’t put that small time stuff over on me that you put on scared to death negroes, that if they mention Jew and you call them anti-semitic they start bowing to you and your pressure. Kanye West don’t bow to the pressure to apologize to anybody. You said nothing wrong.”
