Combat Antisemitism Movement Ousts Abdul El-Sayed Ally: Dismissal of 'Student Minister' Follows Free Beacon Report on His Nation of Islam Ties
Marcus Muhammad, the mayor of Benton Harbor, was appointed last October to the Combat Antisemitism Movement's (CAM) inaugural advisory committee to "provide strategic guidance" for the group's efforts to fight antisemitism. But as the Washington Free Beacon recently reported, Muhammad is also a "student minister" in the Nation of Islam, a group that CAM has accused of spreading blood libel conspiracy theories against Jews. As a result, CAM decided he will no longer serve on the board, and he was notified accordingly," a spokesperson said.
