Anti-white theology

Anti-white theology does not equate to "anti-white racism". Are there RS that describe LF as an "anti-white racist"? I think the article should be specific with the terminology when applying potentially inflammatory labels, especially for a BLP. K.e.coffman (talk) 22:15, 30 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

He's described as pushing an anti-white theology in the lead. The "Criticism and controversy" section says he's described as a racist. Do you really need the exact phrase "anti-white racist" together in the article? — Malik Shabazz Talk/Stalk 23:31, 30 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
The category on "Anti-white racism" appears to be a dubious one, even more so than "Black supremacist" :-). There's no article with this name, apart from a redirect which I believe could safely be deleted (my suggestion here).
I don't see an issue with describing anyone a racist or anti-white theologist, or whatever the RS say, but the "anti-white racist" is a dubious descriptor, just judging by a lack of a wikipedia article. K.e.coffman (talk) 23:57, 30 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
PS -- these categories were added by an IP with an apparent agenda: Added categories above. I removed the "conspiracy theorist" for now. K.e.coffman (talk) 00:02, 31 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I saw a video on Facebook of Farrakhan advocating for segregation.. how is this man not regarded as a racist? If a white man does the same kind of action he's shot down immediately. Crazy... ThePlane11 (talk) 10:59, 24 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure what your point is, or how it's relevant to the categorization of this article. This page is intended for discussion of ways to improve this encyclopedia article, not general discussion of Louis Farrakhan. — Malik Shabazz Talk/Stalk 03:14, 25 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Support for Dianetics?

I see the last paragraph of the introduction ties Mr. Farrakhan to Scientology, but has no documentation in the way of a footnote. Since this is, whether true or not, both noteworthy and odd, I think documentation is in order. --Haruo (talk) 13:17, 19 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

role in the e/w hip hop rivalry

there is no mention that i can see of Minister Farrakhan's peace summits. that could be added if anyone wants to add some balance to this. 173.87.170.212 (talk) 20:19, 8 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The New York Times music critic Bernard Holland reported that Farrakhan's performance was somewhat flawed due to years of neglect "nonetheless Mr. Farrakhan's sound is that of the authentic player. It is wide, deep and full of the energy that makes the violin gleam.
