No news agency is bothering to cover how thousands of peaceful protestors are expressing their right of free speech in Baltimore, over the killing of Freddie Gray. Instead, the big story is the violence of the few rather than the righteousness of the many. One aspect of the untold story is how the Nation of Islam has been instrumental in keeping the peace. There’s no link to share, but the true story is being told on social media. Here’s a sample.

I appreciate the Nation of Islam & how they are coming to unite and protect the people. #FreddieGray

I'm watching the Fruit of Islam, men of the Nation of Islam attempting to stop the violence and working with the police to restore calm

The Nation of Islam just dispersed a crowd in front of a business. And WBAL anchors *marveled* that they were able to use reason to do it.

Praise Carlos Muhammad, the leader of the NOI in Baltimore – and follow him on twitter. Let’s see if the media will notice. Black Lives Matter.

UPDATE:

The media isn't gonna show it, but I will. Here's a pic of Baltimore citizen's lining up to protect the police. pic.twitter.com/GmFBkXU1Zd

Volunteer peace makers still standing between police and those who refuse to leave. Picking up glass that lands at their feet

There were volunteer efforts to clear streets in Ferguson, but none ever this organized and effective as in Baltimore tonight
