Considering the fact that Islam still allows slavery, and Muslims have been enslaving black people for over 1000 years, black people should shun Islam as they do the KKK. Unfortunately many are flocking to Islam in a sad display of ignorance. One being the world famous ex-basketball player, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, who converted to Islam decades ago. Talk about ignorance on full display.
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar wished he had handled his conversion to Islam in a different way: “That made it more political than I had intended”
KAJ knew he had to change just one thing about his time to reveal his conversion to Islam.
Kareem Abdul Jabbar‘s conversion to Islam stands as a pivotal moment in sports history. It occurred in an era when professional athletes had limited freedom to express their views on sensitive topics like religion and social justice.
While the six-time MVP never wavered from his decision despite its controversy, the 7’2″ center expressed regret about how the situation’s focus shifted away from its spiritual significance.
SNIP:
Why did Kareem choose this name?
“Alcindor was a French planter in the West Indies who owned my ancestors. My forebears were Yoruba people, from present-day Nigeria,” Abdul Jabbar said in an interview with Aljazeera America editorial as quoted by SportsCasting. “Keeping the name of my family’s slave master seemed somehow to dishonor them. His name felt like a branded scar of shame.”
Kareem is clearly implying he is against slavery, yet his response is to join the Islamic slave trading machine instead of speaking out against it. To add to it he mentions Nigeria. The home of the Islamic terrorist organization Boko Haram. The home where Boko Haram is still enslaving and or slaying black people. Which is unfortunately justified under the Islamic scriptures.
Kareem, instead of complaining about “Islamophobia” as you have in the past, maybe you should realize what you are part of and actually leave it?
This should have been a slam-dunk for you, instead you threw a brick.
