Marcus Garvey |
The charges in the United States against Marcus Garvey in 1923 were using mail to defraud (mail fraud) investors in Black Starline Shipping Company. He was sentenced to 5 years and then deported to Jamaica after serving 2 years.
Instead of being pardoned by President Biden, Marcus Garvey should have been exonerated. Those charges were unjust and politically motivated.
The police and courts of the white supremacist state were designed to tarnish his reputation and weaken his image and movement.
Even today, some blacks are saying Marcus was a fraud in an attempt to weaken his image. His philosophy should be part of the educational curriculum in all black countries.
The reason is that the people lack a coherent identity and direction. They bleach, fight, and kill one another and embrace a culture of poverty, ignorance, and uncivilization.
How else can we explain the Jamaican 98% of African slave descent? The economy 95% of it is owned by 1-2% of the population, mainly non-black/white/yellow people.
Marcus Garvey wanted blacks to recognize that there is no true political power without economic empowerment. Marcus wanted the Negro to maintain focus on those things that matter.
A kind of microaggressive racism has set in where blacks are killing one another or tearing down each other. How else does one explain a little country like Jamaica in 2022 and 2023 being the 1st and 2nd most murderous country on the planet?
Our "fake" political leaders facilitate in every way other races to capture the countries and marginalize blacks.
Blacks have now bought into the idea that all we are good for is to eat, sleep, dance, defecate, procreate, whine, run, fight, and jump, being the world's masquerade and raw material in the thriving illegitimate sector of the crime industry that drives the expansion of the state-led legitimate crime sectors.
The USA is a prime example. Blacks make up 13% of that 340 million population. The reality is that 40% of the prison population are African American and other blacks.
Garveyism attempts to rescue the minds and bodies' "consciousness of the negro from decadence, uncivilized brutish behaviour, prison or an early grave.
Thriving for black economic and political empowerment. The Blackman must do for himself what the white man and other successful races have been and are doing for themselves.
That's the essence of Garveyism and never worry about being called racists while doing for and to ourselves what is right.

ReplyDeleteAbsolutely, and by far the best article and the most relevant I have ever seen on this blog. Truly Marcus Garvey gave us the blueprint for Black liberation. Now we have to implement it, without apologies, on the Continent and in the Diaspora.
