                               RESOLUTION


 
  To express the sense of the House of Representatives condemning the 
   racist, anti-Catholic, and anti-Semitic speech given by a senior 
   representative of the Nation of Islam and all manifestations and 
     expressions of hatred based on race, religion, and ethnicity.

Whereas the United States House of Representatives strongly opposes racism, 
        anti-Catholicism, anti-Semitism, and all forms of ethnic or religious 
        intolerance;
Whereas the racist, anti-Catholic, and anti-Semitic speech given by Kahlid Abdul 
        Muhammad of the Nation of Islam at Kean College on November 29, 1993, 
        incites divisiveness and violence on the basis of race, religion, and 
        ethnicity; and
Whereas Mr. Muhammad specifically justifies the slaughter of Jews during the 
        Holocaust as fully deserved; disparages the Pope in the most revolting 
        personal terms; and calls for the assassination of every white infant, 
        child, man, and woman in South Africa: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives
            (1) condemns the speech given by Kahlid Abdul Muhammad as 
        outrageous hatemongering of the most vicious and vile kind; and
            (2) condemns all manifestations and expressions of racism, 
        anti-Catholicism, anti-Semitism, and ethnic or religious 
        intolerance.
