Prevent The Rise of The Messiah: FBI's War with Nation of Islam's Point # 12 - Paperback

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) under the direction of J. Edgar Hoover launched a massive propaganda attack on the Nation of Islam on July 28, 1963. Under the guise of the Top Secret Counter Intelligence Program, Hoover fed erroneous and damaging reports to local news papers aimed at slandering the Nation of Islam to the general public. The FBI alleged that the Nation of Islam's Founder, Wallace Fard Muhammad, was not of Arabian descent - but instead was a Caucasian ex-con named W. Dodd Ford, with ties to New Zealand, Oregon and Hawaii. According to newspaper reports, W. Dodd Ford had an extensive criminal record including narcotics distribution and served a prison term in California. The Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad, leader of the Nation of Islam, challenged these false allegations with equal force and ferocity. This research project highlights the FBI's attack against the Nation of Islam and then proceeds to systematically deconstruct each major stand of the now infamous Fard = Ford Myth. Ultimately, this study investigates the U.S. government's role in attacking, discrediting and destabilizing the most important Religious Movement in American history.
