This is a Moorish American flag Peace to all Moore's Islam
Here is a little bit about the history:
In 1913, Prophet Noble Drew Ali founded the Canaanite Temple in Newark,
New Jersey. The Canaanite Temple was an early indication that the
so-called Negroes were of Asiatic origin from the Holy Land of Canaan.
The Movement spread across the country during the 1920's as the Moorish
Holy Temple of Science, as Prophet Noble Drew Ali pioneered in attempts
to instill racial pride. Before he came to Chicago in 1925, the
movement proliferated to Detroit, New York, Philadelphia, and some
southern cities. During his lifetime, membership may have risen as high
as thirty thousand members.
In 1925, Noble Drew Ali wearing a flaming red fez appeared on the
streets of Chicago, proclaiming to the people of the colored race that
they were not Negroes, Colored Folks, Black People or Ethiopians.
People began to gather to hear this young man speak. He stated that the
fallen sons and daughters of the Asiatic Nation of North America need
to learn to love instead of hate, and know of their higher self. His
words were impressive because it wasn't long before he established
himself in a sizeable meeting hall on Clayborne Avenue on the north side
of Chicago.
Finally by 1928, The Moorish Science Temple of America, Inc. was an
established fact. It is believed that this procedure of elevating the
movement to the Moorish Science Temple of America, Inc. from the
Canaanite Temple in phases was to prepare the people for this great "new
thought" movement; entirely different from the churches they had been
used to. With the incorporation came a new charter, Divine Constitution
and By Laws consisting of seven acts. There also follows seven
additional laws to strengthen the guidelines for better cohesion in the
organization. The object of our organization is to help in the great
program of uplifting fallen humanity and teach those things necessary to
make our members better citizens. The Moorish Movement is still alive
today. There are many small temples all over America still following
the great teachings of Prophet Nobel Drew Ali. The star and crescent,
fezzes, turban, membership card, button, Moorish Flag, and the
correction of "El" or "Bey" to the surname signify Moorish identity.
