Nation of Islam

The Nation of Islam, often abbreviated as the NOI, is an African-American religious movement that desires to spread the rest of Islam to blacks everywhere. They hold black supremacist ideals and are considered to be a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center.

The NOI is currently lead by Louis Farrakhan. Malcolm X got his early start as an activist with NOI and soon became indoctrinated into their extremist beliefs about whites, but soon broke away.
