Anti-Semite Claims Black Caucus Members Speaking At His Rally

Unnamed members of the Congressional Black Caucus are speaking at an anti-Semitic black nationalist leader’s rally on April 7, the leader said.

Black Lawyers for Justice President Malik Zulu Shabazz, a former New Black Panthers Party leader, is organizing the 10,000 Black Men’s March and Rally against President Donald Trump and police violence in Washington, D.C., on Saturday. The march and rally are parts of the five-day National Black Men’s Convention Shabazz organized.

Expected speakers at Saturday’s rally include “members of the Congressional Black Caucus (CBC), Reverend Al Sharpton, Reverend Jesse Jackson and likely quarterback and national activist Colin Kaepernick,” Shabazz said in a statement released to The Daily Caller News Foundation.

Shabazz is a supporter of Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan and, like Farrakhan, is known as an extremist.

The Anti-Defamation League (ADL), a Jewish civil rights organization, describes Shabazz as “racist and anti-Semitic.”

Shabazz is “a racist black nationalist with a long, well-documented history of violently anti-Semitic remarks and accusations about the inherent evil of white people,” left-wing Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) says.

Louisiana Democratic Rep. and CBC Chairman Cedric Richmond’s spokesman did not return an inquiry regarding which caucus members are expected to speak at the rally.

“The families of police murder victims will stand alongside 10,000 Black Men or 100,000 people for that matter and will be on Donald Trump’s doorstep Saturday, April 21, demanding his immediate resignation or removal from office,” Shabazz said in a statement.

“The escalating pace of police killings nationwide are international human rights violations, and we must seek United Nations assistance and international remedies because the Trump Administration deliberately fails to act on rogue police murderers across this nation,” Shabazz added.

Shabazz served as New Black Panther Party president from 2001 until 2013, when he stepped down to focus on Black Lawyers for Justice, although he remained the panthers’ “spiritual guide,” according to the ADL.

“Kill every goddamn Zionist in Israel! Goddamn little babies, goddamn old ladies! Blow up Zionist supermarkets!” The SPLC quoted Shabazz saying in 2002.

Shabazz has long advanced anti-Semitic conspiracy theories and claimed in 2003 that Jews had advance knowledge of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.

“If 3,000 people perished in the World Trade Center attacks and the Jewish population is 10 percent, you show me records of 300 Jewish people dying in the World Trade Center. … We’re daring anyone to dispute its truth. They got their people out,” Shabazz said, according to the SPLC.

Shabazz led chants for dead cops during the 2014 Ferguson riots and called for violence following the Charleston church shooting in 2015, according to the ADL.

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.

Become a Daily Caller Patriot today.
