First, Louis Farrakhan's bid to elevate himself to the top ranks of the African-American leadership has failed miserably, and only partially because of his comic-opera diplomacy with African and Middle Eastern dic- tators. Mr. Farrakhan has dis- played an awesome ability to destroy his own credibility by failing to recognize the hurtful- ness of his words or the un- palatability of his ideology. Mr. Farrakhan, we now see, is exactly what he seems — a classic American hater who is limited in his political range by a personality that gravitates to bizarre extremes. Secondly, the country has not paid the slightest attention to the social and economic forces that have led a significant number of people to lend support to Mr. Farrakhan, even backhandedly. Far from it; a year of congres- sional action has only added new flammable material to the tin- derboxes of our inner cities. Finally, the Jewish communi- ty is no closer to any consensus on how best to deal with Mr. Far- rakhan or with the social and economic forces that have led to his rise, however unmeteoric. Last year, when it began to look like the Million Man March in Washington might be a pub- lic relations success, Jewish lead- ers worried that the massive demonstration was part of a master plan by the Nation of Is- lam leader to mainstream him- self. There were concerns that he would exploit the legitimate frus- trations of a disenfranchised in- ner-city community, and that he would use support for his ad- mirable notions about personal and family responsibility to spread his ideology of hate to a much broader audience. But those goals were never met, if indeed they ever were his aims. Even on the day of the march, Mr. Farrakhan couldn't bring himself to sound like a legitimate social critic; his rambling, some- times incomprehensible speech included powerful rhetoric, but also some of the darkest ele- ments of his conspiracy-filled ide- ology. As if to confirm the point, Mr. Farrakhan embarked on a world tour earlier this year that MARCH page 108
