The Founder of the Nation of Islam...... Looks Kinda White...

Wallace Fard Muhammad

"Allah came to us from the Holy City Mecca, Arabia, in 1930. He used the name Wallace D. Fard, often signing it W. D. Fard, in the third year (1933). He signed his name W. F. Muhammad which stands for Wallace Fard Muhammad. He came alone. He began teaching us the knowledge of ourselves, of God and the devil, of the measurement of the earth, of other planets, and of the civilizations of some of the planets other than earth."

The Hon. Elijah Muhammad,

Message to the Black Man, 1966

I quote The Enemy:

"Historians have used public records to identify Fard as Wallace Dodd Ford, a former restaurateur and Moorish Science Temple leader.

In 2001, Nation of Islam chronicler Karl Evanzz stated that Fard was the son of Zared Fard, a New Zealander of East Indian extraction, and his wife Beatrice, part of New Zealand's British population.

However, recent research has indicated that the Department for Internal Affairs in New Zealand has no record of Fard's birth or the birth or death of these alleged parents.

Evanzz claims that Fard, using the name Fred Dodd, married Pearl Allen in Multnomah County, Oregon on May 9, 1914 with their first child, a son, born the next year.

Dodd/Fard left his family in 1916 and moved to Los Angeles using the name Wallie Dodd Fard. A World War I draft registration card for Wallace Dodd Ford, from 1917, indicated he was living in Los Angeles, California, unmarried, as a restaurant owner, and reported that he was born in Shinka, Afghanistan on February 26, 1893. He was described as being of medium height and build with brown eyes and black hair.

As of 1920, he was still living in Los Angeles, as 26 year-old Wallie D. Ford, with his 25 year-old wife, Hazel. In the 1920 United States Census he reported his race as white, his occupation as a proprietor of a restaurant, and gave his place of birth as New Zealand. He provided no known place of birth for his parents, nor his date of immigration.

On June 5, 1924, one Wallie Dodd Ford was wed to Carmen Frevino (or Trevino) in Orange County, California. Ford reported he was a cook, age 26, born in Oregon, but living in Los Angeles. He reported he was of "Spanish" race. His parents names are given as Zaradodd Ford of "Madrad, Span" (presumably Madrid, Spain) and Babbjie.

In 1926, Ford was arrested and imprisoned for bootlegging alcohol to an undercover police officer, serving three years in San Quentin State Prison. After he was released in 1929, he disappeared from the public record until "Wallace Fard" was arrested in 1932. He was identified as Wallace Dodd Ford on the basis of photographs and matching fingerprints."
