The suspension was _/' originally for ninety days, but was made in- definite in early March, 196%, allegedly be- cause of a power stru88le within the NOI between the subject and NOI officials. The subject's NOI activities around the United States and his public appearances as an NOI representative are set forth. Interview with subject at New York City on 2/R/64 set out. Subject brokewith the NOI on3/B/éh, andon 3/l2/Eh, publicly announced the formation of the MMI, an organization with Islam as its re- ligious base and a political, economic and social philosophy of black nationalism. The subject outlined the ultimate aim of the MMI as the separation of races and the return of the Negro to Africa. The current aim is to work with civil rights groups to improve conditions of Negroes in the United States, although the ' subject opposes integration. is HHI spokesman, subject claims Negro struggle should no longer be non-violent, and he urges Negroes to practice self defense if and when attacked. He also sug- gested on 3/12/5#, the formation of rifle clubs by Negroes for self defense in areas where Negroes are not protected by the government. Subsequently, the subject denied he was promoting or organizing Negro rifle clubs, only suggesting that it was legal to own rifles and shotguns and Negroes should do so to protect themselves and their homes, if necessary. He also urged Negroes to vote in order to control their own community politi- cally.

He has big words, but no records on deeds in civil rights. He is terribly militant on sospbozes on street corners of Negro ghettos. Yet, he has not faced Southern police dogs in Birmingham as in Iuther~ has done, nor gone to Jail 2; _' _. a forMarch freedom on wash as zggjgilkins ton as A. and Philip/Randolph did,§::¬s-Farmer have nor done,broughtnor led about creative dialogue between business and civil rights s-s. leaders as Whitney Young does daily. -3 pg, r - -"In fact, here is a man who has been exposed and disosned by the very organization shioh he had so eloquentl, :§ espoused - the Black Muslims. In spite of all this, Mr. X receives more publicity in national media than is given to all E the responsible Negro leaders we have mentioned above. White :.92. .-"- colleges flood him with speaking engagement offers. You can count on one hand Negro colleges which have invited him if there are any.
