Struggle hero John Beaver "JB" Marks (Born: 21 March 1903, Ventersdorp, Western Transvaal, Died: 1 August 1972, Moscow, Russia) worked with immeasurable commitment and dedication to ensure that South Africa belonged to all who lived in it, President Jacob Zuma said at his reburial on Sunday.
"Welcome home Comrade JB Marks. Welcome home our leader, commissar, intellectual, soldier, teacher and accomplished revolutionary," Zuma said in a speech prepared for delivery in Ventersdorp, North West.
"Your soul may now rest in eternal peace, on home soil, on South African soil."
Zuma said that Marks was a distinguished South African who was totally committed and dedicated to freedom, equality, justice and human rights for all.
Zuma said Marks noticed when African students and white students were treated differently at the teacher training college he attended and could see that black African students were discriminated against, Zuma said.
"He then made it his mission to mobilise other students and showing them exactly how the conditions they were subjected to warranted a revolt," said Zuma.
"It was the beginning of the conscientisation of this remarkable revolutionary."
Zuma said that Marks was one of the leaders who played a key role in the Communist Party-led anti-pass campaign of 1944, which drew 20 000 people, including ANC members.
Marks' success was "remarkable" and he managed to mobilise workers from various countries from Southern Africa under one banner and purpose, said Zuma.
From Cameroon…..just 18 years old but I feel like I was part of the struggle in South Africa because of listening to this song and the way the president sang it…..❤…Africa shall rise
When Zuma sings you feel part of the history, the pain, the heart ache, the struggle... wow
Stryt my brother i feel he already send a massage about his songs
Painfully true😢
@@collinmackenzie2989 I feel you...
Painful truth indeed
I can feel the pain when I'm listening to these songs
The world envy’s our nation’s ability to sing like a mass choir with no rehearsal required. 👌🔥
No envy! We love it!!! Can't wait to make my trip to SA one day!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
No one comes close to Msholozi when it comes to singing the struggle songs, you feel and see the pain they had to endure during apartheid.Simply miss him....💪💪
This man’s singing evokes an indescribable feeling of nostalgia, though I wasn’t even there during the liberation struggle. Powerful!
🤞
Zuma needs to have an album of these songs. Im Zimbabwean but still I feel the African spirit in his singing. We kinda have similar struggle songs, these have a deep meaning. I wont forgot my history no matter what.
The ANC's precursor was the Southern African Natives National Congress (SANNC)
I find myself missing Mr Zuma, his charisma and the love for ulimu lwakhe. Zithande Afrika, uzakuyinqoba impi ephumele wena.
As much as i dont like his way of doing things but I must say whenever this man sings these struggle songs I'm touched
Yeah.
I agree
+Duduzile Khambule so true
DJ Ash Dj I also noticed that he becomes more spiritually when he sings these songs, obviously they remind hm of the strugle
Couldn't agree more
I am Zambian, just came here to listen to the powerful struggle songs! They bring relief to my bones! Someone translate them for me. God bless Africa,our world💪🇿🇲🇿🇦
Abantwana be Africa bakhalela izwe labo elathathwa ngabamhlophe (Children of Africa are in grief necause their land was stolen by white people)
It’s 2020 and we still love you Nxamalala
which country has a president that sings as good as our own president??
Chef no one only Msholozi nxamalala nkosiayiqedwa
Steal as much as well, the scumbag.

Kuvuka uhlevana when JZ sings the revolutionary songs 😭💔😭
They say something you have you never know it until it's gone. We had a great president here but sadly enough he was never appreciated
2 Years late usebuyile utata wethu
love from Tanzania, we need our Land without compensation, Viva Jacob , Viva Jacob
in Umsholozi we believe .the best president ever .we will be back.
And he came back 😁
On behalf of SA people we damn miss yu
Lol
Every single day
uZuma igagu straight le President
I am a mozambican and I shall say that I was touched. Very strong voice.
Zuma will always remembered by his deed soul touching singing. kungatsi ningambuyisa just to sing the struggle songs, this man knows the struggle. He sing with a heart having the picture in mind.
I miss this man as Mr. President.😐
He has that "something " abt him lobaba
The last song evokes so much emotions.... NGOMHLA SIBUYAYO
Ohh my god my former president when u sing i cant control my tears they just fall
So true.
Revolutionary songs lives within him he becomes more spiritual when he sings. All memories comes back wht a veteren of our strugle AMAAAAAAAAAANDLAH
Baba you can sing shame, we are still here in 2019 Nov
I hate the whitewashing that happens where people refer to these songs as divisive. What happened happened. That is never going to change. One of the many ways that Africans record history is through songs and stories. That is how our history has been passed on for generations. Writing in books is not the only way of documenting things. Also, people should refrain from telling Africans how to share in their collective trauma. Whether people like it or not, we vow with every song, every dance, every story, every breathe we take, never to forget the dehumanising lives our ancestors were forced to endure and the blood that was spilled so we could be. Everytime we remember our heroes, a story will be told through song or otherwise so children of the soil never forget.
I wish I had more than one like.
EXACTLY THIS
Regardless of everything, Zuma's voice though, uyayithinta inhliziyo uma ecula!
His voice has that power to touch the nerve in us
And you don't need to agree or disagree with his politics. But when it comes to this verve-touching part, you gotta give it to the man...
but Our president... has a heart for music... ill never get fed up from listening to this voice ..
The best president in the world who can sing, long live my president Jacob Zuma.
THE GREATEST WE'VE HAD.
He can sing but why is not mentioned those who took our land 😀😀
I LOVE MY PRESIDENT AND MY ANC !!!! but mostly I LOVE MY COUNTRY
Like him or not, Zuma knows how to, deeply, connect to audiences with inspiring and moving liberation songs, relevantly. I am in the spirit. Farewell: JB: John Beaver Marks. Ubuntu. Amandla! Awethu: Ngawethu!
Our country is facing many challenges but these songs kinda remind us where we come from and what we can do now we can pray for our beloved country to be free of curruption, nepotism, sexism, racial remarks and xenephobic attacks. President Zuma can sing and every time he sings he touches me even though sometimes I dont agree with his deeds but I respect him
It's 2024 I had to revisit this one Msholozi doing the most siyabonga Nxamalala
How I love him💕💖.. Baba Msholozi....ucula iqiniso impela mabawuyeke umhlaba wethu abamhlophe...
People this are not controversial songs as you say. This are historical songs. They tell us about our struggle and fight for democracy. You only complain when it's done in Africa. Recently Oxford University, a prestigious school taught by renown intellects refuse to remove the statue of Rhode. Why? because they believe it's part of their history. So we will sing our liberation struggle songs where some people feel offended or not.
Kanyanga Eberhard Thank you! People forget that our history is not only told in books but songs and stories are some of the ways history has been passed on for generations by our African ancestors. So to ask us not to sing these songs is to ask us to forget the trauma.
I will let you sing these songs, as I'll let Jews tell their stories, as I'll let gays tell their stories, and as I'll let my grandchildren tell theirs. We all need to treat each other with respect and not forget the oppression some people have felt throughout history. Lest we forget.
@@MxStella does the same apply to afrikaners for you?
The real Commander in Chief!
Only if he was pan africanist
South Africa was lead...they will be praising you when you gone baba like they now doing with Winnie Nomzamo Mandela,nobody spoke or defended her when she was called a murderer.
The best president we’ve ever had
Funerals should be like this....where the life of the departed individual is celebrated by the ones left behind rather than crying.....songs and powerful songs like these normally lift the spirits of everyone including the bereaved. We should follow suit this is good and its actually a start of the healing process. Note made on Sat 3/12/2022.
This guy was a born a leader
This is just tooo beautiful. I nearly dropped a tear. I wish everyone listening understood the deep meaning. Thanks President WOW!
witches and wizards who sold our land to the oppressors find it hard to sing this revolutionary songs Jacob Zuma is one in a million
Sibuya kude nomzabalazo...``Mabawuyeke umhlaba wethu``
power he was going to be a good pastor am so revived
Best Pres ever
Struggle songs remind us of the goal posts. The struggle continues. Viva Zuma viva!
2020 I am here ( Best of the best ) 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽 I am not into politics but this 💕
These songs evoke a sense of pride in the context of song and Sizwe sa Nguni, our history is in song and it's oral. Power ✊🏿
wow guys this is the first time I actually hear him sing wow this is really touching
Yoooh President's voice is powerful
iey makucula Ubaba kuhlekezele izinyembezi ILOVE THIS MAN

Changed the funeral atmosphere from crying to a joyful one.
This man was patriotic and an African nationalist 🇿🇦🇿🇦
Jealous down Mr Zuma can sing even better than many musician...
As much as pple have varying opinions about Zuma we can all agree Zuma can sing. I don't understand the words but my spirit is touched.
I LOVE MY AFRICAN PEOPLE!!!! WE ARE GREAT and have a right to express it to, so stand up finally for this right.

Janmari Kotze your comment made my night!
M so in love with what i'm listening to now....uyigagu My President
but you can sing sir
Mr President you got a outstanding beautiful voice we miss your charisma
I miss this guy. The one man who still has a clear vision of what the 'Struggle' has been and is all about: Getting the Land back. Buya Nxamalala kuzothula kuthi Tu!
These songs bring me back to 80s years when black people gathered together to struggle against white people in South Africa. Painfull memories!
From Huambo- Angola
zuma can sing indeed respect man
Best leader ever. Vele these Europeans will never salute true black leadership. This man is a true leader. Africa rise
When lobaba ecula something inside you moves. He should have blessed many with an album of all these songs, but he seems to be a full time active politician even after his term of office ended. Uyasirobha kodwa Nxamalala , an album would have been great!
Mmmmmhhhh tears just run down my face if here these songs
My singing president Msholozi, Nxamalala thanks for reminding us about our land, as for kissmlungu he's total out of order. Mshini wami was rated song of the year 2006. Thank you Msholozi
I love this man too much. Born leader.
One of the saddest days in South Africa and then Msholozi sang the supposed National Anthems. Long South Africa 😎
The way he sing struggle songs ......you can be emotional.
My president 🙌🇿🇦🔥
I'm so glad I've never hated Jacob Zuma. He suffered from the apartheid era and deserved the few millions he "stole" from our country. Some people own hectares of land worth even more but no one hates them like we hate Zuma hahaha!
Nondumiso Mhlongo 😂😂😂😂 uqinisile 😂😂😂
The blesser of free education... chief of Radical economic transformation... ingwevu yakithi kwa Zulu we a proud of you
Wow that is so true
Zuma is an inspiration for all Africans
I agree he deserved the few millions he "stole" 🤣😂
but I LOVE dis man..!
My President😍 love this guy😊
Jealous Down👇👎My President can sing tuu😍😛😩😘
✊✊ i second you on that one Basetsana
Still my President
Yes he will always be the ppls president till he close his eyes forever...
AS south AFRICANS FROM RURAL OF KZN WE STILL PROUD
Mr Zuma seriously i like you..... From Malawi 🇲🇼
Ahhh u-Baba Madoda ❤️😪!
Msholozi is anointed
Best president we ever had amaaaaaaaaandlaaa
The people's president❤❤
I didn't like how he was removed as the president of the country and the ANC.And those who filed his shoes ngeke zibalingane they will be removed kabhlungu.Zuma wasnt bad the media and white people made him bad.Even the commission of inquiry can not prove he was a bad president.I like this old man more than Nelson Mandela, Thabo and Ramaposa nobody will ever be like him.He encouraged us that no matter where you come from, no matter the obstacles you'll come across you can make it in life.
I'm here just few hours before the elections and I'll be voting for MK..."Ngomhla sibuyayo kothula kuthi tu"
my president salute sir
Zuma's singing at the recent Mugabe lecture brought me. I love your singing baba❤❤
Baba kaDuduzane must release his album. He is talented.
I love him❤
I enjoy listening to the Great Zuma singing, he is ordained beyond measure. Hate him or like him, he withholds dive Authority. Only God knows 🙏
Ey madoda! Icula lensizwa bakitithi. We miss you president of the people.
I really miss uBaba😭😭😭 Kuyanyiwa ngoku.
I miss this guy (my former President)
I miss this guy .Zuma the country miss you
As deputy not president
Forward with land expropriation without compensation forward
i'm touched,that is my president,namanje ngyavuma he is
What a song with a deep message. It's unfortunate that he was unable to unite the revolutionary forces and lead the indigenous struggle to the second transition. Rip
My national anthem "Thina sizwe esimnyama"
True comrade i can see the pain from inside hopefully one day u will tell the country how do feel wen u sing this songs
This man has a calling. He's a pastor. He is waiting his gift in politics.
I love his voice hle it has anointing
AYI SASINO PRESIDENT I FIND MYSELF MISSING MR NXAMALALA
Though they arrested you Baba we will forever remember we were once led
