Interesting thought: Maybe Black African Muslims (not just Somalis) will assimilate Black America, not the other way around. Much worse for us of course.

As somebody raised next to an Elijah Muhummed neighborhood (and the only white kid on the bus), the cruelest twist of the knife is this: the creator of the Nation of Islam was not black. His real name was Eli Wallace, from Brooklyn.
Before the surgeries, he looked as ethnic as could be; those surgeries took their toll, when he died he was 400 pounds, with a harem of 23 "wives". He was an FBI informant, moving guns and heroin into the hood. He advocated for a breakaway Islamic state in Mississippi, and had Malcolm X killed to keep his secrets.

It certainly got off to a brisk start in the 1960s.
