Are there particular Muslim communities (geographic, ethnic) in USA that are attracting Nation of Islam adherents? Why/how is this happening? Deliberately/incidentally?

My guess as to why:
Key to whatever success the NOI had and might no longer have is that it presented/presents itself as orderly, disciplined, well-mannered, but was/is extremist, short-attention span, sloppy.
Key to whatever success mainline US Islam will have...(1/2) -
Is that it is presented/can come off as extremist, short-attention span, sloppy but is actually orderly, disciplined, well-mannered. (2/2)
