Lisa, you cannot equate Farakhan + the Christian right, however
similar their politics. One is a response to oppression, the other
is the oppression itself.

I can imagine having an argument with a committed anti racist about
why Farakhan is dead end. But can you imagine having the same 
conversation about the Christian right ? Equating the two DRIVES
PEOPLE INTO THE HANDS OF FARAKHAN - and the same goes for Islamic
fundamentalism in general.

Adam.
