[00:00.25]I would like to say to this gentleman
[00:02.54]And all other people who are not blessed with melanin
[00:06.57]At this point in time to understand that
[00:10.19]What has happened in our history is that
[00:12.37]You have been misinformed as much as we have been misinformed.
[00:17.02]Much of the information that is brought forth,
[00:20.26]Not only from Doctor Mohammed, but other areas,
[00:23.55]Other scholars, are not available to you as a sister said
[00:27.76]In your curriculum that you've had for 400 years
[00:32.82]When you did not allow us to read and write, it was being hidden.
[00:35.74]Whether you, sir, personally did that or not,
[00:39.38]It was a legacy that was passed onto you.
[00:42.97]And I end by saying the Holocaust
[00:45.58]Is simply the greatest atrocity on film.
[00:49.07]Ours was not filmed.
