My lecture today is “Black Buddhist and Dr. Ambedkar take on Japanese Racist.” I am Anthony “Amp” Elmore President and Founder of the “Proud Black Buddhist World Association.” I am a Black man in America who has the courage, tenacity and will to speak out against the racism in Nichiren Buddhism.

Who is it that can take on SGI Buddhist leader Daisaku Ikeda who hold the Guinness Book of world records for honorary College Degrees? Who is it that is Buddhist that can take on the 750 year old Nichiren Shoshu Buddhist Sect? Who is it that has the credibility to take the Rissho University and the Nichiren Shu Buddhist Sect?

The Greatest Indian Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar is the man who can take on the racist Japanese Nichiren Sects. Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar was the highest qualified figure of his times despite belonging to the lowest strata of Indian social order (Untouchable). He is the greatest civil rights activists India has ever produced who not only built the democratic values respected by the world but is revered even today by millions in India. He was a Buddhist ,an economist, a Lawyer, a Social worker, a Professor, a Politician, a Journalist and a philosopher - Dr. Ambedkar was a versatile figure. He single handedly lead non-violent movement to give the downtrodden their rights during the time when even shadow of untouchables was considered unholy. He is considered as the father of the affirmative actions in India.

More important he was a Chandala in India. Let me put this in a language that you can understand Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar was a “Proud Black Buddhist.” Let us get one thing clear the word Naga, Dravidian, Chandala, Sutra, Untouchable, Black, Negro, Nigger or Dalit who the Blacks in India call themselves we are the same people. Nichiren Shonin writes in the Gosho Banishment to Sado: Nichiren is the son of a Chandala Family.

Who is it that can take on the racist Japanese Nichiren Buddhist Sects. The Greatest Indian Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar.
