The World : Britain Bars Farrakhan

Louis Farrakhan, the outspoken American Black Muslim leader, has been barred from entering Britain because of his anti-Semitic remarks, Home Secretary Douglas Hurd told the House of Commons. Farrakhan, leader of the Chicago-based organization Nation of Islam, had been invited to visit next month by the Hackney Black People’s Assn., a north London group. Farrakhan caused a furor in the United States during the 1984 presidential election when he was quoted as having called Hitler a “great man” and describing Judaism as a “gutter religion.”
