Tariq Nasheed “had to do some ‘straightnin’”, Taharka Bey Loses in Maryland Court, Twice

Taharaka Bey, a well know YouTube content creator, has a “shock jock” reputation and is known for “exposing” unknown truths. With his ‘over the top’ antics and consistent pushing of the needle, he has offended the reputation of many well-known figures (both past and present), including Booker T Washington, Minister Louis Farrakhan, Elijah Muhammad, Richard Pryor and a host of others. Taharka Bey host of Moorish TV also attacked Masons and Shriners with a host of "opinions' and "theories" of how they are gatekeepers and hiders of the light.
While many common citizens don’t have the resources to fight off an internet attack (of sorts), award winning film producer Mr. Tariq Nasheed did. On February 14, 2024 (Valentines Day) Tariq Nasheed announced that he had beaten Mr. Bey in court, not once but twice. The court case was so damning that it set a new precedent in the state of Maryland. (See videos)
Just a day or so prior, Taharka Bey and Moorish World TV was accused of false advertising by the Zionst Temple of 1875 in Dayton, Ohio. The accusation is based upon the description and name "Moorish World TV". Moors and Moorish Americans have a rich history, heritage, and culture, and some feel that Moorish World TV is not representative of that richness.

Moorish World TV and Host Taharka Bey Accused of False Advertising, Name Change Demanded

Moorish World TV is a YouTube channel hosted by Taharka Bey, who calls himself a Grand Sheik of the Moorish Science Temple of America, but rarely ever do you see him with anyone else other than his camera and computer. He may be described as 'over the top', 'passionate', or even as 'the court jester'. His professional social media page at LinkedIn.com says that he works at Moorish World Media, however the business description reads:
" All Superior Services is able to think “outside of the box.” When most Property Management companies say “it can’t be done,” we say “we’ll get it done.” We are proud of the fact that we can handle almost every facet of home property management and maintenance. Although we will call upon our talented subcontractors when their expertise and skill is needed, we do most of the work ourselves. We handle all of the rough and finish carpentry, tile work, drywall finishing, and painting."
With that said, we are not clear if he is a Grand Sheik full time or part time, whether he provides property services, or if he works fulltime in media.
Mr. Bey has upset some Moorish Americans over the years because he has a style of show where he critiques other individuals and organizations and outlines there shortcomings, from his point of view. Most recently he critiqued Minister Louis Farrakhan and Elijah Muhammad for their connections to Masonry, going as far as questioning whether they were "hiding light" from the people and referring to them as "gatekeepers". In the past Mr. Bey has taken a strong stance against Masonry and the Shriner fraternity.
"Taharka Bey has a right to free speech and the right to critique whoever he likes, but there is a point in time where he may find himself under the same critiques that he has for others."

Custodian of the Bishop J.J. Moore Zion Family Library
The Moorish World TV's YouTube about page reads:
"Moorish World TV is an online platform that focuses on sharing content related to Moorish history, culture, and spirituality. It aims to educate and inform viewers about the rich heritage and contributions of Moorish people throughout history. The platform may feature interviews, documentaries, lectures, and discussions on various topics related to Moorish identity, sovereignty, law, and social issues. Moorish World TV provides a space for individuals interested in learning more about Moorish history and its impact on contemporary society. Moorish World Tv is also a online platform that researches and reports to the viewers the improprieties amongst individuals and liberation organizations as well as oppressive people and organizations that perpetuates oppression! This also a Cutting Edge Moorish American Moslem Scholarship, News and Entertainment. The Moorish American Moslem Point of view . Hosted By Grand Sheik Taharka Bey"
The Zionst Temple of 1875 has taken a position that "the Moorish World TV ill represents Moorish Americans, and is using the good name of "Moorish history culture and spirituality" to increase followers, for monetary gain, and to spread gossip and slander. Furthermore, the name of Moorish World TV should be changed to better represent the content that Mr. Taharka Bey is putting out to the world as a representative of Moorish Americans.
