"We need a Ministry of Arts and Culture. We applaud the Hip Hop community, the leaders of young people all over the world, but I (Louis Farrakhan) want the young generation of artists to know there is a bigger purpose for art and culture than popping our fingers and shaking our backsides. If we have a Ministry of Arts and Culture in every city, as we create this movement, we could say to our young people, “What is the idea of time and are you reflecting that idea in your song, dance and music?"
With this declaration by the Honorable Louis Farrakhan Muhammad, the vision of a Millions More Movement Ministry of Arts and Culture is now reality in the city of Fort Worth, TX.
We demand a greater accountability and responsibility of our artists, entertainers, industry personnel and executives, for them to commit to the redevelopment and upliftment of our people. We demand an end to the exploitation of our talent by outside forces. We will make strides in obtaining greater control over the means of production and distribution of our immense artistic talent and creative genius. We advocate for cultural development, and for the knowledge of our original culture to be used as a model for future advancement.
