...purveyor of this cold black hatred is known to some 70,000 Negro followers (he claims 250,000) in 29 U.S. cities as Elijah Muhammad, the Messenger of Allah, head of a stern, demanding, disciplined black-supremacist religious sect called "the Moslems."* Calmly feeding the rankling frustration of urban Negroes, the Moslems reach deep among the least-educated, lowest-paid Negroes jammed into big-city slums from Harlem to Los Angeles. Muhammad's virulent anti-Americanism and antiSemitism, plus his elite corps of dark-suited, shaven-polled young "honor guards," has lifted him well beyond...

...were not so sure about all this. "A disaster," said an opposition newspaper, the Cape Times, of Verwoerd's appointment, and in the black slum townships ringing the South African cities, the reaction ranged from explosive resentment to dismay. Yet Hendrik Verwoerd is no simple, Kaffir-bashing white supremacist. Born in The Netherlands, he was brought to South Africa as an infant by his grocer father.
