I've got such a backlog of things. Some are old links that I'm going to throw up here, instead of just leaving them in my inbox, which is getting crowded. The rest are things that Ali Bey's been posting to the Moorish list. I'll try and work through that and get up what I can tonight. For now though, links:
The Labadie Collection - A collection of all kinds of fringe stuff, esspecially leftist writings and images.
An article on the Cult of Hizir in Turkey
Surgical Ordnance - An article that Jesse warns is "a bit on the rose-colored side." Probably shouldn't be taken litterally.
Something I acctually found myself hunting through google one night. Copies of FBI documents concerning thier investigation of the Moorish Science Temple.
The Paradox of African-American Faith - An article about African-American Faith
Pages from some book. These pages detail the meeting between a Sudanese Missionary to the United States: Satti Majid, "Shaykh al-Islam in North America", and the Noble Drew Ali.
An interview with Robert Anton Wilson
A bit on NPR about TAZs
From Far Right To Far Left - And Farther - With Karl Hess - some article about Karl Hess written in 1970. Could be interesting.
Sabaean Mandeans hold baptism in Iraq Tiny sect fearful of future - An article about a sect in Iraq that considers John The Baptist their savior.
Our Moorish Martyr Warren Tartaglia (Walid al-Taha) - A site dedicated to Walid al-Taha, writer of The Hundred Seeds of Beirut.
Keeping The Faith - An article about Wali Uqdah, the prison Iman.
Haitians Hail the `President of Voodoo' - An article on Haiti officially reconizing Voodoo as a legitamit religion.
Scare Tactics, Why are Liberian soldiers wearing fright wigs?
Qiyamat-i Qubra in Alamut - an article about the qiyamat-i qubra.
A short biography of Gibran Khalil Gibran
An interview with Joseph Matheny.
And that's it for the links. I've still got about 30 essays to throw up here, but that will have to wait until another time. Hopefully before the end of the week.
