Washington, DC April 30, 2004 -- Minister Louis Farrakhan, National Representative of The Honorable Elijah Muhammad and Leader of the Nation of Islam will address the press on Monday, May 3, 2004 at 9:00 am at the National Press Club in Washington, DC. He will speak on the Palestinian Israeli conflict and how America's Middle East policy will affect the future of the United States and the World. His message is titled, "Guidance to America and the World in a Time of Trouble."

He will also speak on the War on Terror, Iraq, Homeland Security, the Patriot Act, the Upcoming Election and the Black Agenda. He will ask the questions, "Should Reparations be a part of the national dialogue in this election year? Is Senator Kerry able to change the course that President Bush has put the nation on and should President Bush be impeached?"

America is the wealthiest, most powerful, progressive nation in the last 6,000 years. She has money and power, but is America being rightly guided? Minister Farrakhan will spotlight America's leadership and ask, "Where is our leadership going wrong? Don't the American people deserve better?" America has the money, but she doesn't have guidance.
