In the last decade, countless revisionist scholars have followed in the footsteps of John Dittmer and Charles Payne in the pursuit of creating a more complete and complex narrative of the black freedom struggle through historically grounded local studies. Placing local people at the center of civil rights history rather than at its periphery forces the myths of the movement to crumble. Local studies demonstrate that non-violence coexisted alongside self-defense in the South and throughout the nation. They reveal the role women played as local organizers alongside men who missed the spotlight as national mobilizers. Finally, local studies implode the notion that the civil rights movement took place only in the South between 1954 and 1965 and challenge the sharp dichotomies made between civil rights and black power. The goal now is to connect the local, the regional, the national, and when possible, the transnational. Local people from all over the nation drove the 1968 Poor People’s Campaign (PPC)—the first truly national, multiracial anti-poverty movement. The Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC) built Resurrection City—a temporary shantytown of plywood A-frame houses on the National Mall—to display the appalling living conditions endured by the poor and provide a home base for daily protests at various government buildings. But the nine regional caravans that transported the multi-racial coalition of the poor to the capital connected local movements with the national campaign in Washington, D.C. The caravans enabled local people to place their individual needs in a national context and recognize the systemic roots of their poverty. This presentation focuses on the most dramatic of the nine regional caravans, the Mule Train—a caravan of approximately fifteen mule-drawn covered wagons—and Marks, Mississippi, the small Delta town that served as the launching pad for the Mule Train and the PPC. Caravanning to the capital as a moving political theater, the Mule Train enabled participants to perform the limits on poor people’s mobility—both economic and physical. Cultural geographer Tim Cresswell argues that mobility is a site of ideology construction that often invokes contradictory meanings, since it has meant freedom and opportunity for some and shiftlessness and deviance for others. This analysis considers how representations of the Mule Train and its participants fall along racial, class, and gendered lines and how the caravan used mobility as a form of political resistance. The participants’ courage to endure the long and arduous journey and protest in Washington challenges culture of poverty depictions of the poor as lazy and apathetic. Drawing on interviews with Mule Train participants and SCLC archival materials, this presentation demonstrates how the PPC transformed one Delta community and its residents and considers how representations of and memorials to the Mule Train have affected perceptions of poverty nationally and people’s experiences locally. Connecting the past with the present and concentrating on the process of organizing rather than evaluating whether or not the PPC succeeded in meeting its goals, can help us understand what motivates people to join social movements and how they effect participants’ lives.

Ephesians 6 - "I challenge the world to interview his officials, officers, members who were kicked out of his tumorous body." Now who would be concern with why Allah kick Satan out from Heaven?...why would you ask someone who was removed for their non-Moorish and non-Islamic way? for that would be the only reason any Moor would be removed from any Temple. But as I see some Moorish Temple's rather hold on to their devil's were they lack in quality they make up in numbers. It was not my intent to bring this kind of demostration here, were this has nothing to do with my original topic. It appears Mrs. Ephesians 6 is a women scorned, as I can not see a Brother bringing this B-type stuff were it did not call for it, Mrs.Ephesians 6 must be one of Rael Ex-Prostitutes. Truth Is One Tuesday, April 29, 2008 11:40:38 PM Islamism After reading this crazy stuff from this particular one Ephesians 6 posting which strangely had no proof of truth about anything that he or she was trying to declare against the Chief Minister, secondly it seem to me that this person either had been booted out himself or is a agent for one of those who that Grand Body agreed to boot out for one or more legal and lawful Moorish reason over there. Suddenly this one come running with some very old news, news that I personally have heard the Minister himself speaking about on his shows and this one now seek to attacking the Minister using these old long resolved things. and trying to both defame and slander the Minister with some old age bull, while myself and other may not agree with the Minister harsh way, we must all agree that no one has proven him to be wrong about what he says, nor what he is teaching . and now this particular once come running saying that the Minister smoke reefer and buy prostitutes and uses temple donated, to him by the membership while he was in California and yet to date once more not one actual former member from that time period has ever step forward and challenge him with such foolishness wonder why. And that would literally mean that are pressing charges against him, for doing such action, but that’s never been the cases right? As I have purchases tape from him as well I and some of you have probably listen to his talk show and heard he challenging other whom he has personally attacked about their own bad behavior. Now one of them have came back with such hearsay and conjecture nor trying to defend his fall son as he call him As for what he did before coming into the M.S.T.of A.. and what he is doing now are two totally different things. Guess we all have to start wrong about our past time, when we eat pork and done all sort of other anti-Divine Thing before we came into the temple right? This one has gone back as far as the early 90s in regards to the Minister, like he was there and since it is a well known fact that you cannot smoke reefer on either the bus or air plane and that has been the only two way that the Minister has been known to travel back then, so where was this one at too see these things etc. As I have heard the Chief Minister declared that before he got obligated this final time that he had five female living with him, and he didn’t council the sister except after the break up with that former Adept and Sheik brother. only after a few month and since this too have been a debate-able thing once upon a blind time, it truly seem that this particular one has gone far back as he could trying to find some old dirty upon the Minister name even to the point he used his former name like this add credit to his hypocrisy. Well anyway how come this one hasn't came on the minister show ands challenged him personally with this trash, guess we all know the reason behind that he has no proof of truth and why then should the minister accept a test from a coward who hide behind the screen trying to throw stones at someone who he probably desire to be like but is to weak minded and faint of heart to do so. but wait a minute that rights the Chief Minister declare that he would only accept such challenge from other general not foot solider who put this foot solider up to this posting become the far more important question, probably one of those whom he booted out or was chased away, who knows for sure both Allah and the man who seek to have other do his bidding, so the Beast still has his agent out her and so too does Allah helper have theirs. Shouldn’t he have at lease provided us with some proof other than what he has been told him, and haven’t we all heard these same challenges being set up to other than the Chief Minister who long ago has made fool out of all those who came at him with such foolishness, so why should we simply take up this challenge which has no proof of truth attach to it, and sadly those who do so are allowing themselves to be taken off their square. Let him first put up some ground of sound proof not hearsay and conjecture. I say to the host of "Know Thy Self" to have anyone that have some beef with the Chief, to contact him direct, via email, phone, go to his Temple or call in on his show. 888.361-2499 the email for MSTA1928 info@msta1928.com or the MSTA 1928 radio show www.redcrescentstarstudio.com As I feel I somewhat gave lead way to this madness of this one posting. (Peace) A Concern Moorish Citizen. A by the way who dose what your beefing about has to do with anything? why are you holding to such hate for the Chief Minister? and lastly who are you?

Bismillah El-Rahman-El-Raheem Re:Who is this damn fool that demand a test of us? Islam Dear Believers Well once more a agent of the Beast "Satan" make their way onto our site, and wow he bringeth with him all sort fo old time things which have been resolved by master mind long before him. yet this is not strange to us as more recently a problem which came about In Ohio has some how authored this moveemnt of this old nafs to araise from a watery grave to declare slanderouse thing against us. Yet with no sense of proof they make these crazy like noise hoping toattach other fvrom the neither world to come along with them. Yet where are his master hidding behind the screen as usually hoping not th be exposed. as such it is below us to address satanic ideas which the fire has long been put out then maybe he thinks that other are fool and dumb as he seek to act as through he is defending our son honor while putting himself out there as a hero of some kind. oh he is going to tell onn us oh he is going to bring us down oh he is going to run and have you go get the word from those booted out from amongst not merely the us but the we here , why not ask those still here what they think oh that would be far to much like right huh? oh no let us go way back into time before we had even claimed out free national name oh also then we would have to for get what the Holy Prophet Ali himself declared that he forgave us all for what we did when we were in the time of darkness and now we are to be held accountable for all our ways . but then you all would be porven to be eveil doers ifgnot for the blessing of Allah Holy Prophet forgiving us. but then only a stanic mind would try and hold us to such formewr times . why not stand forth with to-day measurement why not say oh look at what the Chief Minister has done to-day; or what he has done to benefit this Divine Moveemnt or how well he defends the Holy Prophet Ali's holy name from slander andd outrighgt lies etc.But oh no, he want you to go way back into our past so be it. as it is not strange that those who use to be with us in Cslifornis sinse our resurrection back in 1989 , as no one can say that they sen us smoke a thing , nor can they say that they saw us chasing prostitutes and who gave us these donation which he attempt to speak about as we paid all the bill we and one other Moors from 1995-1997 where are those who stand by this devil made a manifest where are they. as we traved to chicago via a plane to which you cannor smoke on especially reefer and when we traveld down to l.a. most of the time we rode the bus along with other memebrs ask them which one saw us smoking even a cigra after 1993. go ask them , and yes whenweweren't obligated we had female a lot of them even here in georgia we had five living with us before he got obligated and yes fr those still as dumb as this one we didn't look eslewhere but in the m.s.t.of a. for our wife. His mr. Braswell bey has outside children as well as been known to kiss the feet of other moabites while he has been olbigate and even had sex in the temple it's self, this is a well know fact and hee has had to pay back $700dolar for reefer he got from another Moor. But think about this! Who of authority have we lied to about our past no one , and yet we have reached the highest height we have been appointed to be a walking Charter we have been appointed to be a Executive Ruler and while it is truthful that we were up under Bro. P.Davis El, we were not under the lesaderhsip of Bro. Braswell Bey at any timee as even he could't make adept and sheiks while we could think on that? And as we have been recognized by foreign Arab Shaykhs and Shaykh's from the far east and who has this one been recognized by, And why is he so interested in the father and son of it all, tell us what has our son done really that he he is trying to hold him up, as he hasn;t been in this Divine Movementr a hot minute and this one come running to his aid like Captain save a hoe! Cape flying everwhere but where it should be flying what and who is this hero the campanion of our fallen son. Ultimately we are who we say we are and no body else thats the good part andd the blessing it that we are actually one with allah and this jealous one cannot touch that nor his weak minded and faint of hearted leadership. Now if he was somebody within another Grand Body, He would have step up as a real man or Moor, but then what can you execpt from such a evil spirited one we name names and stand on what we say and we say what we know to be truthful not hearsay and conjecture. a to-date he has and really cannot showw any proof of truth and so we say ha ha , as the winds of chaznge are turning against someone who has taken to putting this weak minded one up in his place tryingt o get the heat of his own butt. So we all know that sooner or later that wicked tree must fall as the righteousness one planted by us must growth and developed. This is why we dare to continue to put this challenge before the faces of all other grsand heads and chieftain that if they think that we are worng come porve it and if we are right they must submit themselvs to the truth that we teaches, preaches, and stress and thus they must join in our ranks and work with us and we shall be as one. Where is his hero at? Who is his National head and why haven;t he stepped forward as general still talk to generally and foot solider may be allow to listen. but they must keep their mouth closes around authority. Finally we arwen't mad or upset as trhis one simply has given us anothe rchance to call out others and we await their answering of this call or we all should just be about our father works as we know it to be, but in the end we shall be at the head of this Divine Moveemnt by we those within this portion shall have one who will be ready to take charge of the re-newed moorish situation.Now thank this fool once more for us! Peace and Love Yours in Islamism The Chief Minister
