Netflix is will no longer be stream Louis Farrakhan’s documentary after the company was publicly scolded for giving the outspoken anti-semite and homophobe a platform on one of the world’s largest sites.

The Nation of Islam leader’s documentary, “Let’s Change the World: My Life’s Journey Through Music,” was scheduled for release on Netflix Wednesday, but was cancelled at the 11th hour.

“This film will not be released on Netflix. Due to an internal miscommunication, it appeared to be scheduled for release on Netflix, but it is not. We apologize for any confusion this has caused,” the Netflix spokesperson said, Fox News reported.

The Nation of Islam, a black nationalist group known for being viciously anti-Semitic and racist, said in a statement Wednesday that the decision to cancel Farrakhan’s documentary speculates a conspiracy that “outside forces” might have forced the cancellation.

Farrakhan has a well-documented history of saying racist statements against whites, calling them “white devils,” “potential humans” who “haven’t evolved yet” and “sinful by nature .”

“White people deserve to die, and they know, so they think it’s us coming to do it,” he said in 2015.

Farrakhan also stated that Hitler was a fan of German Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler.

“The Jews don’t like Farrakhan, so they call me Hitler. Well, that’s a good name. Hitler was a very great man,” he previously said.

Twitter de-verified Farrakhan, who has close ties to several Democrats, in early June after he want on a long rant about the Jews being evil, The Daily Caller News Foundation reported.
