FIRST ON FOX: A top coordinator at a prominent left-wing nonprofit traveled to Chicago over the weekend to attend the Nation of Islam’s annual Saviours’ Day commemoration, which has been rife with controversy in the past due to Louis Farrakhan’s antisemitic speeches at the annual gathering.
Terence Muhammad, who serves on the Hip Hop Caucus’ national leadership team as the events and field coordinator, posted several times over the last week on his social media profiles that he was attending Saviours’ Day festivities and repeatedly asked his followers to donate to the Nation of Islam if they have been “touched and benefited” by Farrakhan’s message.
Farrakhan is infamous for his hateful comments against White people and Jews, which have been closely monitored by the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) and Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) for several years. The ADL, which has called Farrakhan “one of the most prominent antisemites,” lists dozens of his quotes on its website, including several from past Saviours’ Day speeches. SPLC has classified Nation of Islam as a hate group.
In 2018, Farrakhan said, “The powerful Jews are my enemy” and used an antisemitic trope about Jews controlling the entertainment industry during his 2012 Saviours’ Day address.

During a 2013 speech, Farrakhan referred to Jews as “not good people” and said they have “satanic minds.” In another 2018 speech, Farrakhan said, “You and I are going to have to learn to distinguish between the righteous Jew and the satanic Jews who have infected the whole world with poison and deceit.” He also infamously compared Jews to termites.
Despite Farrakhan’s long history of antisemitism, Muhammad promotes Farrakhan on his social media profiles almost daily and includes him on all his social media profile pictures.
“Wheels Up with My Squad Bro,” Muhammad wrote late last week on Facebook, including a selfie with a fellow Nation of Islam friend on a plane. “HAPPY SAVIOURS’ DAY!! CHITOWN!!”
Muhammad later posted a video in front of Mosque Maryam, the Nation of Islam’s national headquarters, hyping up the event and showing where tents were going to be set up.
