I thought Kwame Ture was an athiest.

Did he ever submit to Islam?
Christian; Wesleyan M.Div.

Alhamdulillah.  His autobiography is VERY good and holds a HUGE amount of knowledge.  I, myself, own it and re-read it every once in a while and learn something new every time, just like Al-Qur'an! 

The book is available just about everywhere for a reasonable price.  It is a little bit more than 800 pages so it should cost no more than $25.  I received mine from www.amazon.com

If your interested in Kwame Ture, you should also be interested in Kwame Nkrumah and Seku Ture who were the leaders of the Ghana Revolution and Guinea Revolution and who Kwame Ture studied directly under.  Information about all three people can be found at http://www.members.aol.com/aaprp/

 

Here is some more information on Kwame Ture.

I also recommend reading Kwame Ture's autobiography titled "Ready For Revolution".

�All we got to do is show (blacks) who the enemy is. At least they�re ready to shoot.� 
� KWAME TURE

 

I think I will continue to honor Dr. King and Malcom X (after his leaving the NoI for true Islam).  No one should call for the death of another.  I agree with the desire to throw off oppression and work for equality.  I disagree with inciting death in order to gain those things.

Bismillah,

Elucidate and enlighten us Brother.  Did he write this for Ture?

Peace

BOB MARLEY/AFRICAN HERBSMAN

All twinklin' lee
Can't see the right rose when the streams abate
The old slave men might grind slow
But it grinds fine, yeah

African herbsman, why linger on?
Just concentrate, 'cause heaven lives on
Greet-I-eth slave men will look with a scorn
With a transplanted heart (yes, how quick they had to part)
(... how quick they had to part)

The remembrance of today
Is the sad feelin' of tomorrow
(... how quick ...) Oh (... part), oh yeah

African herbsman, seize your time
I'm takin' illusion on the edge of my mind
I'm takin' losers down thru my life
Down thru my life, yeah (yes, how quick they had to part)
(... how quick they had to part)

Dideh part, yes, they part
In remembrance of today
(... how quick they had to part)

African herbsman, why linger on?
Just concentrate, 'cause your heaven lives on
Greet-I-eth slave men will look with a scorn
With a transplanted heart, yes, how (... quick they have to part)
(... how quick they have to part)

In remembrance of today
Brings sad feelings of tomorrow
(Yes, how quick they have to ...) Lead me on, oh, Lord, I pray to you

(African herbsman) (African herbsman)
African, African herbsman ...
