(Peace Be Unto You) TO THE FAMILY, AND FRIENDS OF VIOLA PLUMMER: Advertisement › What can I say about the loss of my Sister and friend, Viola Plummer? Why did I love her the way I did, because, when I met her I met one of the strongest Black women I ever had the chance to meet. What gave her so much strength? It was her love for God, her love for truth, her love for her people, her love for that which is right. She was hard on false men and women, she was hard on deceitful men and women, she was hard on those who were weak as leaders. Everyone who knew her felt that about her and saw it displayed whenever they acted other than right and she worked for good in the best interest of the rise of our people.

  Minister and social activist  Martin Luther King, Jr. , was the preeminent leader of the  American civil rights movement  from the mid-1950s until  his assassination  in 1968. His guidance was fundamental to the movement’s success in ending the legal  segregation  of  Black Americans  in the South and other parts of the United States. He rose to national prominence as a leader of the  Montgomery bus boycott  in 1955–56 and later as the head of the  Southern Christian Leadership Conference , which pursued civil rights through nonviolent tactics, such as the  Selma March  (1965) and the massive  March on Washington  (1963), at the culmination of which, King, an immensely gifted orator, delivered his iconic  “I Have a Dream” speech . He was awarded the  Nobel Peace Prize  in 1964 and is commemorated by the  Martin Luther King, Jr. National Memorial  in Washington, D.C.

This is an official statement from the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan on the passing of Nation of Islam Eastern Regional Student Minister Abdul Hafeez Muhammad, who departed this life on April 11, 2020 in New York. Words are inadequate to express the pain, the shock, the turbulent thought processes that the passing of Brother Abdul Hafeez Muhammad has stirred in me, in my family, in his family and the members of Mosque Number 7 and in the Nation in general. It is not an accident that we are one year from my speaking to the joy of some and the chagrin of others at the Staples Center celebrating the life, the work and the passing of Ermias Asghedom known to the world as Nipsey Hussle. The death of Brother Abdul Hafeez has affected me like no other; like the passing of Kobe Bryant, that the shock of his passing sent me to Allah
