Louis Farrakhan (born Louis Eugene Walcott; May 11, 1933) is the leader of the Chicago-based Nation of Islam. He served as minister of major mosques in Boston and Harlem, and was appointed by Elijah Muhammad as the National Representative of the Nation of Islam, before the 1975 death of the longtime Nation of Islam leader Elijah Muhammad. After Warith Deen Muhammad disbanded the NOI and started the orthodox Islamic group American Society of Muslims, Farrakhan started rebuilding the NOI. In 1981 he revived the name Nation of Islam for his organization, previously known as Final Call, regaining many of the Nation of Islam's National properties including the NOI National Headquarters Mosque Maryam, reopenning over 130 NOI mosques in America and the World.[citation needed]
Farrakhan is an African American religious and social leader and a critic of the United States government on many issues. Farrakhan has been both praised and widely criticized for his often controversial political views and outspoken rhetorical style. In October 1995, he called and led the Million Man March in Washington, DC, calling on black men to renew their commitments to their families and communities. In 1996, Libya's de facto leader Muammar al-Gaddafi awarded him the Al-Gaddafi International Prize for Human Rights. Because of health issues, in 2007 Farrakhan reduced his responsibilities with the NOI.[citation needed]
