Farrakhan rhetoric hurts Jackson camp
media and the Jackson/Farrakhan
union has ended in a bitter divorce.
Instead o f concentrating on
Jackson's extraordinary d ip lo
macy, Farrakhan's latest radio
broadcast was quickly converted in
to headlines.
“ There can be no peace ..using
the name of God to sheild your gut
ter religion."
On the Cable News N e tw o rk ’ s
Freeman Reports, he denied that he
said the word “ gutter".
Farrakhan: “ I said dirty and I did
not say Judaism."
Freeman: "You said Israel."
Farrakhan: “ Israel is not Judaism
by Lamia Duke
G R A S S R O O T N E W S , N. W —
In the eyes o f many, the foot in
Jesse Jackson's mouth is M in
ister Louis Farrakhan, national
spokesman for the Nation of Islam
When the rainbow coalition
formed last year, Farrakhan urged
his members to vote. His presence in
the political process was hailed as a
sign of unity within Black America's
progressive and nationalistic com
munities.
But Farrakhan*« extreme na
tionalist rhetoric had been blown
out o f proportion by the national
P e te tt leaves U rban League
Donny A d a ir, chairman o f the
Portland Urban League Board of
D irectors,
announced
the
resignation o f Freddye Webb-
P etett, president o f the Urban
League o f P ortland, effective
December 28th.
Petett, 40, who came to the Port
land Branch from M ayor Neil
Goldschmidt’s office in 1979, said
she wants to take the next year to do
some free-lance consulting and
assess her future. Petett was an aide
to Goldschmidt when she was
named to succeed James O. Brooks
as head of the Portland League.
A lthough Petett plans to give
more time to her personal wants,
she w on’t be lacking for activity.
Last year, she received a grant from
the W .K . Kellogg Fou n d atio n ’ s
national Fellowship program. The
three-year grant o f up to S3S.000
provides for independent study and
thus far has taken Petett to Mexico,
New Y o rk , M inneapolis, and
throughout the Pacific Northwest.
Over the next two years, her study
o f telecommunications and in ter
national cultures w ill take her to
Europe, Africa, and Asia.
A search com m ittee headed by
Linda Rasmussen, chairperson of
the league's personnel committee,
will interview candidates for Petett's
position. In addition to Rasmussen,
who is head of the Communication
Workers of Am erica, members of
the committee are Skip C o llie r,
Professional Training Systems; Bill
H illia rd , The Oregonian; Chuck
Long, U S. Bancorp; Irw in Starr,
K G W -TV; and Thane Tienson, M it
chell, Lang & Smith.
Announcing
wide area paging coverage
without
the wide area price.
T he paging people w h o have always brought you
selection and service now b rin g you one of the
widest coverage areas In Portland
Plus one big advantage O u r com petitors charge
you for "extended coverage " RAM Includes It as
standard Trill of fare
P rem iu m coverage w ith o u t a p re m iu m price
Because at RAM. we believe your pager is only as
good as the area It reaches.
That does not mean what I say is in
correct. Why d id n 't the Congress
repudiate the C IA for their illegal
mining in Nicaragua, nor did they
repudiate the F .B .I. fo r killing
Black leaders and destroying the
Black liberation movement o f the
1960's. Their condemnation of me
docs not make me wrong."
Farrakan continuously stated that
he was not anti semitic. " I have no
hatred or animosity towards Jews. I
have hatred and animosity toward
exploitation, slavery, colonial-
ization and mind m anipulation.
I f I see it in a Jew, I have the
right to condemn it without having
to be called anti semitic."
Whatever appeal Farrakan's
views might have, they were dam
pened when he warned Am erica,
“ God is angry. The time o f the
fu lfillm e n t o f the prophet's
prediction is now. America is
heading for the heat o f the Third
World War which is Armageddon."
Black political observers feel
Farrakhan's impact on Jackson’s
campaign has been a negative one.
The mistake he made was to
disseminate his beliefs, outside the
mosque, to the general public whose
press blew it out of proportion and
dimmed the rainbow coalition.
...there is a difference between per
sons who call themselves Jews and
persons who live the life that was
taught by Moses."
Farrakhan references drew sharp
condemnation from an A d m in
istration already loaded to fire
on Jesse Jackson. Also, some Black
p olitical
leaders
attacked
Farrakhan's broadcast. Represen
tatives Charles Rangel, (D -N Y ),
Louis Stokes, (D -O h io ); Mickey
Leland, (D -T x); W illiam Gray, (D-
Pa); and Alan W heat, (D -M o )
released a joint press statement.
" ...T h e scurrilous statements
about Israel and Judaism by
Farrakhan are abhorrent and should
be both resented and rejected by all
persons of goodwill."
Farrakhan said he was used by a
media conspiracy that brought up
the language of the Nation of Islam
to kill Jackson's budding rainbow
coalition. “ They always throw the
stone, hide their hand and then
blame the victim."
Last week, Jackson disassociated
his campaign from Farrakhan
statements, but the double standard
of justice in America said it was not
enough
Farrakhan said, “ I don't care if
the whole world repudiates me.
