I kind of like that one. It would be a fascinating experiment and you would see if it is truly all about 'racism' or not. Will IQ levels rise? Will crime alter? Will family dynamics change? It would have to be able to sustain a welfare state for those who make bad choices right? Yes, and once in then that is the path chosen unless one is willing to integrate back as a functioning resident as you only come back on a working visa of course. Good idea.

Glad you see it that way. It certainly would put the rest a lot of suspicions and presumptions on both sides. The Honorable Elijah Muhammad did not want black people to define the word success within the context of the white system, a system which had for the past nearly 400 years crushed their spirit and their identity and had forbidden them under penalty of death from becoming literate.
Illiteracy was the way the blacks survived those 400 years of pure hell
Want to sneak a book under your bed and learn the alphabet? See that noose over there, you uppity N*****?
So now you are free, and carrying the destruction of your soul multiplied exponentially over the past 400 years, the anger the rage the feeling of revenge, the absolute spiritual desolation and desperation, the wiping out of the sense of self by the abusers in the oppressors,. .....
Would you want to be defined by those very same people within their very same systems?
NO, HENCE THE HONORABLE ELIJAH MUHAMMAD PROCLAIMING WHAT SHOULD BE DONE. AFFIRMATIVE ACTION IS A JOKE. THE PEOPLE NEED LAND AND A WAY TO OPERATE AMONGST THEMSELVES TO EMPOWER THEMSELVES AND CREATE THEIR OWN SYSTEM, THEIR OWN UNIQUE SYSTEM, UNIQUE TO THEIR STYLES AND UNIQUE TO THEIR CULTURES AND HERITAGES.
