The Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan, a special guest speaker shared views on the importance of education, and to hear solutions to the problems of crime and violence plaguing the Black community. Farrakhan, agreed that education is important. But, said more importantly, students and their parents should be interested in the quality and type of education being received. This is key in the process of community empowerment and violence prevention, he said. “The problem starts with education and the problem will end with the proper education,” said Min. Farrakhan. “It is not enough to have an education, but we must have the right education, the proper education that allows the one who is educated to use his gifts, skills and talents to solve the problems of his or her time.” The kingdom that God invites his people to be part of must be rooted in knowledge so profound that it destroys the artificial barriers and lies presented as truth within education, the Minister explained. With the knowledge of God and self, there is nothing that a young student is unable to accomplish, he said. “Don’t tell me you can’t learn. You can learn anything you put your mind to if you understand you are a direct descendant of God,” said the Minister. “When you are truly educated, you do not see problems that overwhelm you, you see an opportunity to prove your connection to God.”
