New Black Panther Party - Ras Jelani

Send us a text

From standing up in church at age eight to declare that Jesus was Black, to carrying Dr. Khalid Muhammad's casket through the streets of New York, Brother Jelani Ross's spiritual journey spans decades of seeking truth through various Black consciousness movements.Born to a Jamaican mother who raised him in the Rastafarian tradition, Brother Jelani takes us through his remarkable evolution—cutting off his dreadlocks to join the Nation of Islam, exploring the Five Percent Nation and Moorish Science, studying under Dr. Malachi Z York in the Nuwabian Nation, and eventually becoming the Mid-Atlantic Regional Chairman of the New Black Panther Party.What makes this conversation unique is Brother Jelani's ability to integrate seemingly different spiritual traditions into a coherent worldview. Rather than seeing each movement as separate or contradictory, he describes how they built upon one another, forming layers of understanding that have shaped his consciousness. "All the stuff that I've been a part of is still a part of me," he explains, emphasizing that knowledge is infinite and his journey has been about continually seeking and integrating new perspectives.The most powerful moments come when Brother Jelani shares his experiences with the New Black Panther Party after meeting Dr. Khalid Muhammad in 1997. He describes the discipline of standing post for hours during security details, the camaraderie among members, and the profound sense of purpose that comes with dedicated service to a cause greater than oneself. For those interested in Black liberation movements, this rare firsthand account offers insights into the practical application of spiritual principles through community organizing and activism.Join us for this profound conversation about spirituality, discipline, and the ongoing quest for Black liberation. Whether you're familiar with these movements or new to them, Brother Jelani's sincerity and depth of experience illuminate the connections between various traditions of Black thought and resistance.
