Speaking about the reason why the Prophet reconnected the Asiatics of North America with their fellow Asiatics worldwide with a focus on the Asiatics of North, South, Central America, and the Caribbean (West Indies). The Prophet let it be known in chapter 45 that the world is MUCH larger than the United States. We must remember this and keep in mind that the Forerunner to the Prophet, a modern day John the Baptist, Marcus Mosiah Garvey, and his wife Amy Jacques Garvey were both born in Jamaica (West Indian). Other notable leaders as well such as Malcolm X and Minister Farrakhan are also West Indian. Farrakhan's parents are from St. Kitts and Jamaica while Malcolm X's mother was from Grenada and his father was from Georgia. The mother of Malcolm X, Louise Little is from the island of Grenada. Apparently her grandparents were “liberated Africans” from West Africa, probably Nigeria that arrived in Grenada in the mid nineteenth century. Their family still owns land in Grenada to this day.2 “She (Louise) left Grenada in 1917, she arrived in Montreal, and then lived there for about two years. In Montreal, she was first introduced to Garveyism through her uncle, Edgerton Langdon, the son of Mary Jane and Jupiter Langdon. In Montreal, she joined the Universal Negro Improvement Association (UNIA), founded by Marcus Garvey and Amy Ashwood Garvey, and later met Earl Little, who was from Georgia. They married in Montreal, moved down to Philadelphia, and then to Omaha in 1921. And, lastly, I've had the opportunity to meet with some of her grandchildren and great grandchildren. She has a very large and extended family in Michigan and elsewhere.”2 “She (Louise) was a committed Garveyite grassroots activist. She spoke multiple languages—English French, Patois. She taught her children the French alphabet. She insisted that her children read newspapers such as the Negro World, the official periodical of the UNIA, and newspapers from Grenada. ”2 “Point du Sable married a Potawatomi woman named Kitihawa (Christianized to Catherine) on 27 October 1788, in a Catholic ceremony in Cahokia in the Illinois Country, a longtime French colonial settlement on the east side of the Mississippi River.[15] It is likely that this couple was married earlier in the 1770s in a Native American tradition.”3 “Kitihawa Point Du Sable (also known by her Christian name, Catherine)[1] was a Potawatomi woman who, with her husband Jean Baptiste, established the first permanent settlement in what is now the city of Chicago.”4 “A December 2019 article in the Chicago Tribune mentions a proposal to rename Lake Shore Drive for Jean Baptiste Point du Sable.[4] The article suggests rethinking the history of the city and considering the centuries that Native American people used the area as a trading post -- and renaming Lake Shore Drive for Kitihawa instead.”4 Sources: 1. http://www.noirguides.com/facesofafrobelizeans.html 2. https://www.aaihs.org/on-louise-little-the-mother-of-malcolm-x-an-interview-with-erik-s-mcduffie/ 3. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean_Baptiste_Point_du_Sable 4. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kitihawa_Point_du_Sable https://theskydeck.com/chicago-facts/who-founded-chicago/ Saudi Arabia - Culture, Etiquette and Business Practices (commisceo-global.com) A Black Imam Breaks Ground in Mecca - The New York Times (nytimes.com) Sheik Adil Kalbani - Search (bing.com) Bedouin (3) | Al Ain | Pictures | United Arab Emirates in Global-Geography Afro-Peruvian rights of national interest in Peru | News | ANDINA - Peru News Agency https://www.bing.com/images/search?q=afro+peruvians&form=HDRSC3&first=1&cw=1427&ch=773 https://pacotaylor.medium.com/ancient-chinese-secret-these-14-phenomenal-photos-reveal-there-were-indeed-black-chinese-6261468b4102 https://realhistoryww.com/world_history/ancient/China_2.htm --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/moorish-americans/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/moorish-americans/support

Keisha N. Blain teaches African American and gender and women's history at the University of Pittsburg. Her book Set the World on Fire: Black Nationalist Women and the Global Struggle for Freedom (University of Pennsylvania Press, 2018) tells the story of an overlooked group of black women leaders in the aftermath of a declining Marcus Garvey's black nationalist movement of the 1920s. Building on numerous religious and political ideologies, Garveyite women organized black workers from the Mississippi Delta to Harlem and built transnational alliances in the pursuit of global black liberation and nationalism. They followed strategies such the Greater Liberia Bill seeking funding from the U.S. government for black emigration to Africa. In doing so, they formed unlikely alliances and remained outside the established civil rights organizations tapping the frustrated aspirations of thousands of African Americans in mid-century America. Over a period of four decades, they never gave up on their dream of a return to Africa and building a black nation recognized on the international stage. Set the World on Fire, offers a continuous link between the nationalism of the Garvey movement and Black Power of the 1960s in which women were key. This episode of New Books in American Studies was produced in cooperation with the Society for U.S. Intellectual History. Lilian Calles Barger, www.lilianbarger.com, is a cultural, intellectual and gender historian.
