Now, we think differently over here we think that people are going to call us prejudice if we put emphasis on retaining our own Bilalian identity."

"Oh They'll think we're prejudice. We don't want to put any importance on ethnic pride or Bilalian ethnicity, that will set us apart from the rest of America." What has set you apart from the rest of America is the fact that you are not an American and you are not an American because you don't represent anything unique. You don't have an identity. You don't have an identity. The other people have an identity. The other people have human personality. A human personality that has been born or formed in an ethnic personality. An ethnic personality that has been formed or born out of an ideology, a way of conceiving the world of reality; and you don't have that. We just buy what the white man filters into our heads over the wires or through the airwaves". April 9, 1982, in Sedalia, North Carolina, Imam Warith Deen Mohammed
