Washington Speaks with Imam Musa Obiou, Bilal Salahuddin

Imam Musa is Booker T Washington Senior Great-grandson 7-8 pm
 

The African American Community needs to have this conversation now. Imam Musa’s new book will be a very good starting point, as we prepare to confront the conservative tide in the political arena. Although Booker T. Washington was a conservative in many ways, at the heart of his agenda was human compassion. As a child he hauled buckets of water to his fellow slaves to save them from falling out beneath the scorching sun from heat exhaustion. He had to anticipate their need for water and deliver it to them quickly, as he later anticipated the need of our people for a God-conscious educational program that would lift us up as a people and give us economic equality and global respect
