If black leaders had their people's welfare in mind they would press for de-criminalization of drugs but that is not a feel good issue that perpetuates the victim class mentality they feel is so vital to political control.

I believe the figure of $500,000 was mentioned by Farrakhan.

The rally got its most energetic jolt just before 2 p.m. when Minister Louis Farrakhan, head of the Nation of Islam, gave a short speech on the need to use the money responsibly, if reparations are ever approved.

"We cannot settle for some little jive token," he told the crowd. "We need millions of acres of land that black people can build."
