Farrakhan Predicts Another Holocaust, Espouses Antisemitism and Bigotry in Saviours' Day Speech
The Nation of Islam (NOI) held its annual Saviours Day conference in Chicago the weekend of February 2426, serving once again as a platform for vitriolic antisemitism and anti-LGBTQ+ bigotry.
Saviours Day 2023 marked the annual events return to a large-scale arena setting for the first time in three years; the NOI held smaller, semi-virtual conferences during the intervening pandemic-era years. NOI speakers injected familiar antisemitic and conspiratorial rhetoric into the weekends activities, capped off by longtime NOI leader Louis Farrakhans keynote address on Sunday afternoon.
The NOI has targeted Jews extensively during Farrakhans 40-plus-year tenure as the groups leader and repeatedly dismissed accusations of antisemitism. The NOI made this focus particularly clear in recent months as the organization sought to insert itself into the national debate over antisemitism following the Ye and Kyrie Irving controversies, promoting content about Jews and antisemitism in their social media posts, weekly sermon broadcasts and newspaper articles.
Farrakhan directly addressed the NOIs long history of antisemitism in his speech on Sunday, demonstrating his obsession with Jews and affirming the NOIs position as a leading promoter of antisemitism in America today.

This shows how seriously people take antisemitism.
