Minister Louis Farrakhan rehearses for his 13 February 2002 performance of the Beethoven Violin Concerto in D Major at the Cerritos Centre for the Performing Arts in Los Angeles, California. Conducting the orchestral ensemble was Maestro David Warble (Principal Guest Conductor for the Long Island Philharmonic, conductor emeritus of the Disney-Grammy Symphony Orchestra, Founding Music Director of the California Wind Orchestra, Music Director of the Orange County Symphony, and conductor for Broadway star, Betty Buckley). In June of 2001, Mr. Warble conducted the London Symphony Orchestra in a recording session of Johan de Meija Symphony No. 1, "The Lord of the Rings," at the famed Abbey Road studios in London. Farrakhan was coached for the performance by Ayke Agus ~ the constant companion, personal and class accompanist and advisor to the most celebrated violinist of the 20th century (and one of Farrakhan’s artistic heroes), Jascha Heifetz.
In May of 1993, Louis Farrakhan staged a recital of the Violin Concerto by composer Felix Mendelssohn in one of the most politically-resonant displays in classical music history. In a performance marking the most dramatic confluence of art and politics since Richard Wagner penned his notorious tract, 'Das Judenthum in der Music', Farrakhan instantly established himself as the single most transformative classical musician in American history. For the 18 months leading up to his performance, Farrakhan was coached by Elaine Skorodin Fohrman, a Jewish violin virtuoso and member of Chicago's Roosevelt University where she taught classical violin. Farrakhan's first rendition of the violin concerto occurred as part of a three-day symposium, 'Gateways: Classical Music and the Black Musician' , at the Reynold's Auditorium in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, on 18 April 1993. Shortly thereafter, Farrakhan reprised his violin concerto before a Chicago audience of 3000 on May 17 on his eighteenth-century Guadagnini violin.
Forget Indiana Jones & the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, clear out your hard drives and brace yourselves for the real summer blockbuster of 2008. In the download of the millennium my full 1998 Middle East interview with Minister Louis Farrakhan is preceded by 'Ministry of Rage' - a 2hr 50min experimental, paradigm-shattering, non-narrative avante garde epic. Featuring the 1995 Million Man March, the Joe Lieberman/Farrakhan rapprochement, 1996 Farrakhan World Tour, Michael Jackson trial, the Libyan/N.O.I. "Billion Dollar" affair, Malcolm X, the British Farrakhan ban, the infamous 1994 A.D.L. memo and a head-spinning array of other topics, this spectacular DivX motion picture is the most comprehensive film of its kind ever made about Minister Farrakhan and the Nation of Islam.
In an epic multi-media presentation one-time Louis Farrakhan advocate, XYBORG, calls for a new investigation into the assassination of Malcolm X. Featuring a dizzying array of Malcolm X and Farrakhan film clips this video podcast is a crushing indictment of the Nation of Islam in the callous betrayal and savage murder of the Black Power freedom fighter. In the light of its explosive revelations Minister Farrakhan must issue a full public apology, resign as leader of the NOI and co-operate with any new investigation into the 1965 murder of Malcolm X.
This hypnotic December 1964 spectacle of Malcolm X delivering such a magnificent defence of Black manhood before a predominantly white audience in the Western world’s most elite educational establishment, Oxford University ~ and receiving such a rapturous response in return ~ is the clearest proof of Malcolm’s identity as the long-awaited Messiah of the entire Human race. If Malcolm could generate this kind of response at Oxford, just think of what he would have accomplished throughout (1) the rest of Western Europe and (2) the Middle East, Africa, Asia, Latin America and the wider world had he not been murdered by the criminal, Elijah Muhammad.
Malcolm X discusses the presidential campaign chances of Barry Goldwater, his split with Elijah Muhammad’s Nation of Islam and the prospect of a Black Nationalist Guerrilla War of Liberation within the United States of America.
Malcolm X unleashes intellectual kung-fu in this blistering 1963 interview with famed American psychologist, Dr. Kenneth B. Clark, as he proceeds to rip the US Government a veritable bouquet of “New Ones” over the hypocrisy and duplicity with which it treats Black America and serving notice of the nuclear holocaust of insurrectionary rage America risks if she doesn’t abandon her Satanic ways.
Malcolm X wields his dazzling and clairvoyant intellect to rip to shreds the case for affirmative action and welfare dependence in his 1963 appearance on the WRCA ‘Open Mind’ TV panel ~ decades before those issues found themselves at the epicentre of contention and controversy within the American body politic.
What you see above once again serves to underscore just how truly telescopic a mind was Malcolm’s, how waaaaay ahead he was of the current peacock-like crop of posturing and preening Black (and White) “conservatives” and “Republicans”, how catastrophic it has proven to be that Black Americans came to be ideologically identified with the emasculating and disembowelling liberalism of the Democratic Party and just how disastrously the historical process was derailed when he was savagely murdered by Elijah Muhammad in 1965.
