You are right that individuals in the Black Power movement engaged in antisemitism. The Nation of Islam, from its beginning, was a tightly knit origination strongly centralized around its leader- they believed its founder was Allah himself. As a result, the beliefs of the leaders-and not the rank and file of the party, were conveyed as beliefs of the whole of the Nation of Islam. During its height, the Nation of Islam held antisemitic beliefs- its leader, Elijah Mohammed, condemned the Jews as greedy people. This rhetoric only increased when Louis Farrakhan led the Nation of Islam, and he called Judaism a gutter religion and praised Hitler. This antisemitic rhetoric, from the leaders of the Nation of Islam, and other organizations inspired by them, is the root of the pervasive idea that the Black Power Movement is antisemitic. However, this antisemitism was only the view of a few black power organizations. The Black Power Movement was nothing if not diverse in view. For example, the Black Panther Party, a communist organization collaborated often with Jews. In order to spread the message of a revolution against the United States government, the Black Panther Party often coloborated with other leftist groups, which often had high Jewish membership. The Black Panther Party collaborated with Students for a Democratic Society, which had a high Jewish membership, to host The United Front Against Fascism, an event to rally leftist groups against the perceived fascism in the United States. In this recollection chapter leader Mark Rudd talks about how radical groups like the SDS attracted middle class Jews who agitated for social justice. At the United Front Against Fascism, a Jewish lawyer, William Kunstler, spoke. William Kunstler, who was already famous for defending civil rights activists, would go on to defend Black Power activists like SNNC leader Jamil Abdullah Al-Amin. Ultimately, while there are antisemitic and conservative Black Power groups, many Black Power groups, like the Black Panther Party, sought alliances with Jewish people who, like them, wanted to see social justice in America.
