If the NOI wants to attract more, and evangelize:The NOI should encourage members to run for office as independents.Broaden membership to other ethnics.They should update their music selections at mosques to "Islamic gospel".Go beyond urban centers to suburbs & smaller town backdrops. Set up international locales abroad.Rev. Farrakhan is well into his 80s now. Longevity has its place, but he won't be around forever. Whenever he eventually passes, I wonder if there will be infighting?Will they move back toward the Sunni format, as happened when Elijah Muhammad's son Wallace took over in the mid 70s after his father's death. Farrakhan's group is technically a "reboot" begun in the late 1970s after separating from Wallace's re-organization of the NOI into a 'mainstream Islam' congregation.
