@traziegbahe Marcus Garvey's life and words are vital to what is happening in the United States of America right now and into the future. We, Blacks and others, in the U.S. will be diligently working for equality and fighting racism every day, every year, until every person in the nation experiences equality to one another. I am white, and I think white Americans have a huge mountain to climb in order to feel equal to all others, not superior to anyone.
Correct. This is a Caribbean story, not a story about those of us, my history here going back to the 1700s on record. Lynching should not be lent to Marcus Garvey's efforts as he joined with Ernest Cox of the KKK to achieve ends for the Caribbean and Africa, not "Black-Americans" as we have always been called by both. Both identified by their nationality until 2019. And up until that time and generation, I have always been encouraged to NOT call myself Black, while being called "Black American." We were and are seen as people with no nation and as you prove in your comment, are still a non-factor in "African Nationalism." The "diasporic" politics do not resolve our harms and were never meant to. The politics of people who look like us have nothing to do with our issues, those people do not associate with us in any political or civic manner. They talk and operate over and despite our presence. You comment that you can see what is happening in Africa and the Caribbean, but not America to "Black Americans." And like Garvey and the guest, inject yourself into the racialized experience of "Black Americans" after entering the arena of America by choice, on your own terms, for your own interests. By virtue of signing up for all of the intent of immigration with no exception or recognition of "Black Americans" Garvey, and you are here and participating in the same harms with offenders, the KKK no less. Garvey was attracted to eugenics. Today's immigrant is attracted by the opportunities work programs bring. We, "Black Americans" are being gentrified en mass and there is no discussion of it. There have been and are no Democracy Now topics on the ongoing harms to us. The ongoing operationalization of eugenics and systemic harms. That is bundled as discreet incidents and political squabbles. But a celebration of Marcus Garvey. I lost most all of my "Black American" neighbors by the year of 2020 to Caribbean neighbors who refuse to speak and instead have are hostile when I greet them. The past four years have been the election of 3rd generation eugenicists, their new progeny and a celebration of globalism. Overlooking all the chaos and destruction that comes with that, but never addressing it. Actually seeing that side of the coin as a savior. And not that its goals are achieved, Immigration is prioritized as the American harm. My neighborhood has been gentrified and displaced, I have no agency or representation in my local government and police. That has always been the function of immigration in our neighborhoods. That separation and the cycle of enjoying winning opportunities only for the let down of being sent back home has always been there. Then the argument about the treatment of "Black" immigrants vs... You never touched "Black" politics and you overstep the treatment of "We" who are here. That is your function. The same function as Marcus Garvey's union with Ernest Cox, his union with the KKK betrayed us in the worst way. There has been no "Black" diaspora. Just leveraging of the energy, interests and outcomes of "Black American" politics as we were called. Harlem and Chicago were the safer places for my great-grand parents; maternal and paternal to move to, away from lynching, and murder in the 20s. Neither saw Marcus as their representative, solution or ally. Yes, Marcus Garvey spoke out against lynching, he did not address it head on. The new and small wave of Caribbeans did not live in the south. As is now, the place of the Caribbean and African were not seated with "Black Americans." The question of how to respond was an academic argument. Not confrontational, courageous, or even recognizing the dynamics or racial violence, segregation or institutions. Garvey united with the worst part of racism, the KKK, Earnest Cox was both a supremacist KKK member and a eugenicist. There was no mistake in that. As with your guests, Marcus asserted "We Blacks" without a "Black American" body, Assuming agency and leadership in the lives of "Black Americans" skipping the physical and logistical he based his fight in the ideological, his boats never left the shores. But, he raised $600,000 in the 20s? Sounds like the same fiscal tendencies as BLM, and Dr. Umar to me. If Garvey did successfully launch his boats my great-grandparents were fighting for their land, they themselves said that was a trip they would not take. Running away from what they worked for. Marcus Garvey did not address American harms head on. Instead he framed violence in the south, hatred in the south and north, eugenic and segregation laws as an argument in favor of his movement to get on a boat. No "We" or Black union grew out of his efforts. His fight was not framed for that. His fight was narrow. His fight was to get on that boat. He was no threat to American politics. The small Caribbean and African population at that time were in the Northeast. Just arriving to the safer regions on hearing about the harms, but not involving themselves. Not in the south where we were being lynched, murdered and our land stolen. Caribbeans did not associate with us in the north, they do not now. The one African purchased in 1811 to oversee my family in the south is documented as calling us "Dogs" on his arrival and committing his duty to his master. We were made to contend with a dominant minority who looked like us, as always have been and are right now. Going to school with African's and Caribbeans, our relationships were collegial, not that of allies. I learned politics, social capital, friendship and neighborliness is not their way. As Caribbeans and Africans do in their own countries. As I learned in sociology, the interest of the immigrant is not politics or civics of nations, its the immediate stabilization and growth family through opportunities, labor and assets. I've watched this play out in waves of gentrification in the "Black American" mixed income neighborhood I grew up in every 8 to 10 years over the course of 40 years, until the neighborhood was fully gentrified of both "Black Americans" and Caribbeans. I'm watching the same exact thing happen the same way in the middle to low income neighborhood I work in now. Two ethnicities of the same color living together does not change politics or racism, it weakens the struggle for justice. Someone who looks like you is satisfied and has no demands other than those that affect them directly. The same happens in the Caribbean where dominant minorities are positioned. What happened with East Indians in Trinidad. Or Japanese in Hawaii. The approach is strictly business and opportunities. Dominant minorities like the African purchased to oversee my family have intrinsic interests of opportunity, opposite that of joining to form a diaspora. It's the dream, and not until the opportunity is withdrawn and they are destabilized can the Dominant Minority empathize with the native. It's a cycle of waves that repeats itself. The only diaspora is the East Indian diaspora which is tied together by caste and homogeneity, a national identity and history of nationalist socialism. There was and is no kinship that comes from looking alike. That would have had to have been built through relationships. Marcus was attracted to the benefits he perceived "Black-Americans" were receiving under Eugenics. He arrived as immigrants do, for "opportunities." He arrived for a globalist view and benefits no different than 2019 mass immigration has benefitted "Black Americans these past four years. It has divested us, gentrified us, displaced us from our homes and jobs. It has diluted, at this point the progress we made in policy that benefited everyone else, but us. A Jamaican Vice President promised NOT to consider policy specifically for "Black Americans." Marcus Garvey did not address "Black American" issues specifically in any way either. Worse, he joined with Ernest Cox, a KKK leader with eugenic affiliation. Ernest's father's work was in shipping. While "Black American" professionals; Doctors and Scientists were forced through eugenics institutionalization of racist practices, to contend with the abuse of eugenics, institutionalized racism exacted on our family members; our classification as "Colored", forced sterilization, segregation, exclusion from the workplace, on our displacement from the land we own. Our fight is not to leave our land. you are correct. Marcus Garvey's fight was specifically for Caribbeans and Africans. It leveraged the harms of "Black Americans" and joined with the activists who classified us for segregation, that framed and enacted systemic racism in institutions nationally.

At 30 years old in the state of California with a high school diploma, I only learned of Marcus Garvey through a song by Mutabaruka. I hope The history books will be rewritten to include this amazing man am happy to see this history in mainstream discussion
I didn’t know much about Marcus Garvey. So I’m glad to hear about him and his pardon. I remember hearing reggae songs, especially of Dr Alimentado, mentioning Marcus Garvey schools. He must have been important in the self awareness and emancipation movement.
"Said I never forget no way, how they crucified Jesus Christ And I, I'll never forget, how they sold Marcus Garvey for rice Said I, never forget, how they turned their backs on Paul Bogle So non of you, non of you forget... Who you are, and where you stand in the struggle"

Garvey wasnot an activist for "racial" (skin colour) equality. He was a self confessed fascist, black racist, colaborator with the KKK and ponzi scheme running scumbag.
My cousin who is a UNIA member was deeply disappointed by this news as pardon implies a guilty man. He says he should have been exonerated. I said, when have we ever got what we aimed for in this country? Even now everything that we do is being mocked, denigrated, and revoked. That frustration is not a reason however to give up our striving.
The reason why that's is so it's because we are constantly seeking validation from white people for everything we does or trying to do. We/Africans must forget about them and forge our own path forward. Blessed Love from JAMAICA 🇯🇲
@@reggaepoet6 Absolutely and appreciate the love 💯 I myself moved to Africa. Our own path forward will still require some of us to be within the system while we pursue our liberation. Even leaving the US we are beholden to their trade deals, their multinationals, and other colonial remnants.
@Losttribeswoman totally concur. However that can stop/will stop when Africa/Africans truly united. Especially on the Motherland. Complete unity on the continent will eliminate all of those nuances. That's why I am really saddened that the Sahel Alliance are not getting the required support from the (unless) African Union, or the mostly mentally enslaved Presidents on the continent. Ibrahim Troire cannot shoulder all those burden alone. It's really not right for him (and the 2 brothers from AES) to be bearing all those pressures alone. I am very happy that you made the move to the Homeland.
@Losttribeswoman I replied to you earlier. It appears UA-cam removed my response. This is exactly the reason why Africans must come together and operate independently from others.

Thank you for explaining a brief intoduction as to who is Marcus Garvey, you have sparked ny curiousity and as i aim to further my research into American history! Marcus Garvey sounds very interesting, as someone who has not heard him before this video, it sounds like further research into the years of his prominence can possibly illuminate our situation today as Americans. Thank you
Marcus garvey was not about integration or higher education. He was about economic growth. Google " Matcus Garvey speeches" His take was when you own things, people will respect you for your money
Glad your interest has been sparked. One love. He inspired Bob Marley, Malcom X, Elijah Muhammad, Stokely Carmichael. etc. Martin King even pays homage to him in Jamaica.
Marcus Garvey the black man who came and opened the eyes of all black people across the world, so we could be liberated and free from inside out. Its full time his philosophy and books be taught in schools, staring in all the high schools in Jamaica, setting the minds of the children free with the TRUTH.❤🇯🇲🇬🇭
He didnt open all black people eyes. He had to come to America because the people in Jamaica wasnt about ish. Straight koons in Jamaica. Black Americans were and still is fghting white supremacy
The conviction of Marcus Garvey is one of the countless number of reason, we as foundational black Americans are owed reparation. It not just for 247 years of free labor of America chattel slavery but what happen 1865 going forward! Marcus Garvey and the UNIA was on the beginnings of buying ships so black America could be self sufficient with our own economy! If we were just left alone the first 40 years post 1865, we would be an economic giant along with Africa and the rest of the Africa diaspora!
That's why they stopped it from happening. Esau wants us to go down with their ship when The Most High brings His wrath upon this land for their sins. They want us to share in the punishment. Mlk was one of the worst things to happen to black people.
@ The logic and understanding of us, we do include segregation. We included it all! White supremacy didn't just leave us alone post 1865! If they had left us alone, Africa and diaspora would be the economic giants on this planet.
I need you guys to understand something very important here, Marcus Garvey should have been posthumously exonerated……….. Not posthumously pardoned. You pardoned people who have admittedly done wrong and are seeking forgiveness. You can’t pardon a man that was framed in a political witch hunt to remove him from the country.
@mrsoshadabaadman You online odd balls kill me. You get online and start talking stupid to people you don't even know. Anybody that understands who Marcus Garvey is and was, knows he's JAMAICAN. And just because I'm FBA doesn't mean I'm anti immigrant and can't respect a black man who was in tune with his african roots, and respect his efforts in america and with people of african roots across the globe. Stop the bullshit and keyboard gibberish. -FBA
@nefertinaabrams1853 Online goofy, it's common knowledge that Marcus Garvey was JAMAICAN. Your comment is irrelevant. Stop stereotyping all FBA's and assuming they're all anti immigrants and not pan-Africanist. -FBA
@roylle6346 That's funny you say that because all the Jamaicans I've ever met never mentioned his name. There's a new generation of Jamaicans and people born in the Caribbean Islands that never heard about Marcus Garvey. I heard more Jamaicans talk about Bob Marley and Halie Salassie. So I don't see Marcus Garvey being held as a national hero amongst Jamaicans. FBA are the only people who kept the name Marcus Garvey alive for decades. That's why Marcus Mosiah Garvey had such a big following from the FBA culture. You see something I've never seen and heard and I've seen and heard a lot in my lifetime but what you said isn't true.
@zechariyahthemessenger9873 Anyone talks of Bob Marley knows Marcus Garvey. No new generation of fba knows Marcus garvey. Stop the falsehood. Right now, you're speaking falsetto..lol. Without Marcus, NO rasta. The proof is in the pudding. If fbas knew of Marcus, then they'd stop telling Jamaican people they're the ones that fight for them to be in America, etc.
The idea that Marcus Garvey’s pardon “helps undo the harms of the past” is laughable because it misunderstands the nature of historical harm and the scope of true justice. Pardon, as a symbolic gesture, cannot reverse or undo the vast systems of racial oppression that Garvey fought against, systems that persist today! Rather than focusing on symbolic gestures, honoring Black history, and truly addressing the harms of the past, requires dismantling those oppressive systems and making reparations for the centuries of exploitation, violence, and disenfranchisement that Black people have endured. A pardon doesn't touch these foundational issues, and calling it an act of undoing harm is an insult to the magnitude of Garvey's vision and the ongoing struggle for justice.
That is why the call to black people to VOTE for their interests is the message of President Biden. Blacks instead voted for Trump not Harris!!! That’s beyond ignorance and suicide…
To stop denying that harm was done is the first crucial step in the healing journey. Policies aimed at undoing that harm may follow from that and our constitution allows for that social justice work. I see hope where you see none but that's probably because I'm 50 and so have acquired a longer view of our country.
You are exactly right, however, a journey of a thousand miles always begins with one step. With the election of DJT that journey just got a lot longer.
14:09 ~ Marcus Garvey’s approach to DEI through economic empowerment was the path we SHOULD have taken! The fact that it was a threat to capitalism is the biggest reason we didn’t.
Marcus Garvey wanted separate but equal. He believed blk people could be great on their own without whites. It has nothing to do with DEI. He wanted whites to be in their own land and Blks to be in their own land.
@@l.b.9567~ So after try’n it once, you just give up? What went wrong was that the whole operation was centrally located and it only took one attack to destroy everything. If there had been one in Texas, and another in Tennessee, and another in Alabama and so on, the ones that weren’t destroyed would’ve been able to come to the aid of the one that was.
It isn't nor has been anyone's responsibility to educate each other on our history. That is our responsibility. The pardon shows the work that Garvey's philosophy was right and the USA was wrong. It is important to bring him back to black history and reeducate black people in America and the rest of the world.
@@Imissyoulou on the contrary, that is YOU. I’m fully aware of the lies and benign neglect of the Democrat party and their Republican partners. Democracy Now never mentions this at all.

I BECAME A MEMBER OF THE UNIA IN LIBERIA. The Liberian branch was headed by Rev. Clarence Harding, who became a mentor and close friend. I later graduated from the Marcus Garvey Institute in Liberia and led its glee club. I also read Garvey and Garveyism, which is very informative on Garvey's vision
This is a nothing burger. The man is dead and won't benefit from this. How about he pardon ppl like *Mumia Abu Jamal or Assata Shakur.* Ppl like those two who are still living deserve pardons.
Most people don't know that. The flag also had a pledge. The name was "Here's to this Flag of Mine. They probably never heard of the "Whirlwind," his last speech before leaving the country.
President Biden is a good man. His pardon of Garvey is a means to rectify and a wake up call to all of us that racism and injustice still exist in America. Let us equally uphold the rules of law for all races and for everyone…

Neither saw Marcus as their representative, solution or ally. Yes, Marcus Garvey spoke out against lynching, he did not address it head on. The new and small wave of Caribbeans did not live in the south. As is now, the place of the Caribbean and African were not seated with "Black Americans." The question of how to respond was an academic argument. Not confrontational, courageous, or even recognizing the dynamics or racial violence, segregation or institutions. Garvey united with the worst part of racism, the KKK, Earnest Cox was both a supremacist KKK member and a eugenicist. There was no mistake in that. As with your guests, Marcus asserted "We Blacks" without a "Black American" body, Assuming agency and leadership in the lives of "Black Americans" skipping the physical and logistical he based his fight in the ideological, his boats never left the shores. But, he raised $600,000 in the 20s? Sounds like the same fiscal tendencies as BLM, and Dr. Umar to me. If Garvey did successfully launch his boats my great-grandparents were fighting for their land, they themselves said that was a trip they would not take. Running away from what they worked for.
Marcus Garvey did not address American harms head on. Instead he framed violence in the south, hatred in the south and north, eugenic and segregation laws as an argument in favor of his movement to get on a boat. No "We" or Black union grew out of his efforts. His fight was not framed for that. His fight was narrow. His fight was to get on that boat. He was no threat to American politics. The small Caribbean and African population at that time were in the Northeast. Just arriving to the safer regions on hearing about the harms, but not involving themselves. Not in the south where we were being lynched, murdered and our land stolen. Caribbeans did not associate with us in the north, they do not now. The one African purchased in 1811 to oversee my family in the south is documented as calling us "Dogs" on his arrival and committing his duty to his master. We were made to contend with a dominant minority who looked like us, as always have been and are right now. Going to school with African's and Caribbeans, our relationships were collegial, not that of allies. I learned politics, social capital, friendship and neighborliness is not their way. As Caribbeans and Africans do in their own countries.
As I learned in sociology, the interest of the immigrant is not politics or civics of nations, its the immediate stabilization and growth family through opportunities, labor and assets. I've watched this play out in waves of gentrification in the "Black American" mixed income neighborhood I grew up in every 8 to 10 years over the course of 40 years, until the neighborhood was fully gentrified of both "Black Americans" and Caribbeans. I'm watching the same exact thing happen the same way in the middle to low income neighborhood I work in now. Two ethnicities of the same color living together does not change politics or racism, it weakens the struggle for justice. Someone who looks like you is satisfied and has no demands other than those that affect them directly. The same happens in the Caribbean where dominant minorities are positioned. What happened with East Indians in Trinidad. Or Japanese in Hawaii. The approach is strictly business and opportunities. Dominant minorities like the African purchased to oversee my family have intrinsic interests of opportunity, opposite that of joining to form a diaspora. It's the dream, and not until the opportunity is withdrawn and they are destabilized can the Dominant Minority empathize with the native. It's a cycle of waves that repeats itself. The only diaspora is the East Indian diaspora which is tied together by caste and homogeneity, a national identity and history of nationalist socialism. There was and is no kinship that comes from looking alike. That would have had to have been built through relationships.
Marcus was attracted to the benefits he perceived "Black-Americans" were receiving under Eugenics. He arrived as immigrants do, for "opportunities." He arrived for a globalist view and benefits no different than 2019 mass immigration has benefitted "Black Americans these past four years. It has divested us, gentrified us, displaced us from our homes and jobs. It has diluted, at this point the progress we made in policy that benefited everyone else, but us. A Jamaican Vice President promised NOT to consider policy specifically for "Black Americans." Marcus Garvey did not address "Black American" issues specifically in any way either. Worse, he joined with Ernest Cox, a KKK leader with eugenic affiliation. Ernest's father's work was in shipping. While "Black American" professionals; Doctors and Scientists were forced through eugenics institutionalization of racist practices, to contend with the abuse of eugenics, institutionalized racism exacted on our family members; our classification as "Colored", forced sterilization, segregation, exclusion from the workplace, on our displacement from the land we own. Our fight is not to leave our land. you are correct. Marcus Garvey's fight was specifically for Caribbeans and Africans. It leveraged the harms of "Black Americans" and joined with the activists who classified us for segregation, that framed and enacted systemic racism in institutions nationally.
Garvey was a right-winger, a capitalist and a fraudster.
WHAT ARE YOU ON?
HIS MESSAGE AND WORK IS RELEVANT FOR BLACKS GLOBALLY..
LOOK AT BLACKS IN THE STATES..
THEY'RE NOBODY WITHOUT THE WHITE MAN...
BLACK PEOPLE ARE LOST
At 30 years old in the state of California with a high school diploma, I only learned of Marcus Garvey through a song by Mutabaruka. I hope
The history books will be rewritten to include this amazing man am happy to see this history in mainstream discussion
I didn’t know much about Marcus Garvey. So I’m glad to hear about him and his pardon.
I remember hearing reggae songs, especially of Dr Alimentado, mentioning Marcus Garvey schools. He must have been important in the self awareness and emancipation movement.
I still remember hearing of Marcus Garvey in a Lauryn Hill song 💗
"So much things to say"
Her unplugged album is amazing!
From Canada, so don't think we learned about him in school.
Her song is a cover of Bob Marley's from 1977.
"Said I never forget no way, how they crucified Jesus Christ
And I, I'll never forget, how they sold Marcus Garvey for rice
Said I, never forget, how they turned their backs on Paul Bogle
So non of you, non of you forget...
Who you are, and where you stand in the struggle"
And I don't come to fight flesh and blood
But spiritual wickedness in high and low places
And don't you fight me down
I'll stand firm, and give Jah all the thanks and praises
I don't expect to be justified, by these laws of men
Though the wicked find me guilty, Jah will proove my innocency
'Cause when the rain falls, it don't, fall on one man's house top
Remember that
See when this rain falls, it don't, fall on one man's house top
💗
The honourable Marcus Garvey, does not need anyone's pardon. It's ridiculous.
All black people no that fact 😊!
What pardon? Who is going to pardon the man that parden Garvey.
Mr Garvey would say you are still the same devil that I knew 100 years ago. Yall have never changed

I got goosebumps listening to Marcus Garvey speak with such strength and eloquence. We all should be activists for racial equality.
Racial equality 😂😂😂.
Garvey wasnot an activist for "racial" (skin colour) equality. He was a self confessed fascist, black racist, colaborator with the KKK and ponzi scheme running scumbag.
Dumbest idea ever, unless you're trying to perpetuate racism.
He was literally a white supremacist. Wrote pen pal letters with them and everything.
@ Please explain how standing against racial inequality perpetuates racism. I truly want to understand your perspective and logic.
Thank you for bringing us this important story and introducing us to Justin Hansford.
INDEED!
A drop of water when constan can drill into a rock, God's time is God's time, as a Jamaican, i am so proud of my Jamaican heritage 🇯🇲🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿👏🏾
My cousin who is a UNIA member was deeply disappointed by this news as pardon implies a guilty man. He says he should have been exonerated. I said, when have we ever got what we aimed for in this country? Even now everything that we do is being mocked, denigrated, and revoked. That frustration is not a reason however to give up our striving.
@Losttribeswoman: EXACTLY!! And these symbolic pardons are used to distract from the Trump and Biden pardons of really bad people whom they support...
The reason why that's is so it's because we are constantly seeking validation from white people for everything we does or trying to do. We/Africans must forget about them and forge our own path forward. Blessed Love from JAMAICA 🇯🇲
@@reggaepoet6 Absolutely and appreciate the love 💯 I myself moved to Africa. Our own path forward will still require some of us to be within the system while we pursue our liberation. Even leaving the US we are beholden to their trade deals, their multinationals, and other colonial remnants.
@Losttribeswoman totally concur. However that can stop/will stop when Africa/Africans truly united. Especially on the Motherland. Complete unity on the continent will eliminate all of those nuances. That's why I am really saddened that the Sahel Alliance are not getting the required support from the (unless) African Union, or the mostly mentally enslaved Presidents on the continent. Ibrahim Troire cannot shoulder all those burden alone. It's really not right for him (and the 2 brothers from AES) to be bearing all those pressures alone.
I am very happy that you made the move to the Homeland.
@Losttribeswoman I replied to you earlier. It appears UA-cam removed my response. This is exactly the reason why Africans must come together and operate independently from others.
There has been no satisfaction in pardoning a dead man for over a hundred years. We have 1000s that need to be pardoned right now, that's living.
People are granted pardon according to importance. The thousands in jail nobody even knows their names

Still relevant to this day!
It does not undo but addresses wrong doing!
To Stop denying the harm done is the first crucial step to healing.
In the title of the video it 'says' undo. Nah. Nothing has been undone. This is one issue that's one hundred years too late. The relentless pursuit of minimizing and trying to erase African descendants (or whatever you choose or are from); This is the pursuit that also chases them. The chaser is being chased.
@begging4music it's also says "HELPS undo". This professor is trying to show how this historic pardon of Garvey can be used to further DEI legislation in our country, which under trump is being abolished. I ask you to please listen to this whole interview.
Good segment. Thanks, Amy.
A good story that informs for these times.
Well deserved pardon, so unfortunate it was needed. RIP Marcus Garcey
He's dead how?
RIP Marcus Garvey .
THE YOUNG MUST BE TAUGHT ABOUT GREAT JAMAICAN MARCUS GARVEY!!
Right now we need every freedom fighter and protector of history that we can find.
And do what?, we are so morally compromised..
Thank you for explaining a brief intoduction as to who is Marcus Garvey, you have sparked ny curiousity and as i aim to further my research into American history!
Marcus Garvey sounds very interesting, as someone who has not heard him before this video, it sounds like further research into the years of his prominence can possibly illuminate our situation today as Americans. Thank you
Marcus garvey was not about integration or higher education. He was about economic growth. Google " Matcus Garvey speeches" His take was when you own things, people will respect you for your money
Glad your interest has been sparked. One love. He inspired Bob Marley, Malcom X, Elijah Muhammad, Stokely Carmichael. etc. Martin King even pays homage to him in Jamaica.
He was literally a white supremacist. Wrote pen pal letters with them and everything.
Marcus Garvey the black man who came and opened the eyes of all black people across the world, so we could be liberated and free from inside out. Its full time his philosophy and books be taught in schools, staring in all the high schools in Jamaica, setting the minds of the children free with the TRUTH.❤🇯🇲🇬🇭
He didnt open all black people eyes. He had to come to America because the people in Jamaica wasnt about ish. Straight koons in Jamaica. Black Americans were and still is fghting white supremacy
Wow all these years I have known about him, I had never heard Garvey's voice! So powerful!
The conviction of Marcus Garvey is one of the countless number of reason, we as foundational black Americans are owed reparation. It not just for 247 years of free labor of America chattel slavery but what happen 1865 going forward! Marcus Garvey and the UNIA was on the beginnings of buying ships so black America could be self sufficient with our own economy! If we were just left alone the first 40 years post 1865, we would be an economic giant along with Africa and the rest of the Africa diaspora!
That's why they stopped it from happening. Esau wants us to go down with their ship when The Most High brings His wrath upon this land for their sins. They want us to share in the punishment. Mlk was one of the worst things to happen to black people.

I don’t understand why the reparations movement doesn’t mention segregation.
@ The logic and understanding of us, we do include segregation. We included it all! White supremacy didn't just leave us alone post 1865! If they had left us alone, Africa and diaspora would be the economic giants on this planet.
Marcus doesn't need Biden's pardon. We have long exonerated him😊
Exactly
WELL SAID SO SO WELL SAID
!!!!!
"Reparation"!
IT IS IMPORTANT FOR THE WORLD TO KNOW THAT GARVEY PHILOSOPHY STILL MATTERS and AMERICA WAS WRONG!
Excellent coverage, thank you
I need you guys to understand something very important here, Marcus Garvey should have been posthumously exonerated……….. Not posthumously pardoned. You pardoned people who have admittedly done wrong and are seeking forgiveness. You can’t pardon a man that was framed in a political witch hunt to remove him from the country.
He wasn't jail for mail fraud they jail him because he was a black man who stood up for his rights. 😢
I happy about this pardon.
RIP Marcus Garvey

You online odd balls kill me. You get online and start talking stupid to people you don't even know. Anybody that understands who Marcus Garvey is and was, knows he's JAMAICAN.

The man is dead. What good is a pardon to him?
@@zechariyahthemessenger9873Marcus say look for me in the whirlwind
Marcus Garvey is our national hero In Jamaica
@roylle6346 That's funny you say that because all the Jamaicans I've ever met never mentioned his name. There's a new generation of Jamaicans and people born in the Caribbean Islands that never heard about Marcus Garvey. I heard more Jamaicans talk about Bob Marley and Halie Salassie. So I don't see Marcus Garvey being held as a national hero amongst Jamaicans. FBA are the only people who kept the name Marcus Garvey alive for decades. That's why Marcus Mosiah Garvey had such a big following from the FBA culture. You see something I've never seen and heard and I've seen and heard a lot in my lifetime but what you said isn't true.
@zechariyahthemessenger9873 Anyone talks of Bob Marley knows Marcus Garvey. No new generation of fba knows Marcus garvey. Stop the falsehood. Right now, you're speaking falsetto..lol.
Without Marcus, NO rasta.
The proof is in the pudding. If fbas knew of Marcus, then they'd stop telling Jamaican people they're the ones that fight for them to be in America, etc.

Whether they pardon or not pardon His Excellency Sir Marcus Garvey doesn't matter to us. WE DO NOT SEEK VALIDATION FROM HIS ACCUSERS.
Thank you Amy; wonderful report [❤]...
Thank you for this segment.
My heart hurts for others still sitting there for unjust racially motivated crimes. Indians too!
My forever King. I love this man. 🇯🇲❤
The first time I heard his voice I was like Wow This man is powerful.
The idea that Marcus Garvey’s pardon “helps undo the harms of the past” is laughable because it misunderstands the nature of historical harm and the scope of true justice. Pardon, as a symbolic gesture, cannot reverse or undo the vast systems of racial oppression that Garvey fought against, systems that persist today!
Rather than focusing on symbolic gestures, honoring Black history, and truly addressing the harms of the past, requires dismantling those oppressive systems and making reparations for the centuries of exploitation, violence, and disenfranchisement that Black people have endured. A pardon doesn't touch these foundational issues, and calling it an act of undoing harm is an insult to the magnitude of Garvey's vision and the ongoing struggle for justice.
That is why the call to black people to VOTE for their interests is the message of President Biden. Blacks instead voted for Trump not Harris!!! That’s beyond ignorance and suicide…
This is true and correct. I'm glad at least people are hearing his message .
To stop denying that harm was done is the first crucial step in the healing journey. Policies aimed at undoing that harm may follow from that and our constitution allows for that social justice work. I see hope where you see none but that's probably because I'm 50 and so have acquired a longer view of our country.
You are exactly right, however, a journey of a thousand miles always begins with one step. With the election of DJT that journey just got a lot longer.
@VeganFast-jg8gk True 😔
Marcus Garvey didn't need no pardon people who understand history knows the truth .

RIP Marcus Garvey was a great man
it's not a pardon we want .we want his conviction expunged
14:09 ~ Marcus Garvey’s approach to DEI through economic empowerment was the path we SHOULD have taken! The fact that it was a threat to capitalism is the biggest reason we didn’t.
Garvey was a promoter of black capitalism - he was the enemy of the working class.
Marcus Garvey wanted separate but equal. He believed blk people could be great on their own without whites. It has nothing to do with DEI. He wanted whites to be in their own land and Blks to be in their own land.
We tried it in Black Wall Street, Oklahoma
@@l.b.9567~ So after try’n it once, you just give up? What went wrong was that the whole operation was centrally located and it only took one attack to destroy everything. If there had been one in Texas, and another in Tennessee, and another in Alabama and so on, the ones that weren’t destroyed would’ve been able to come to the aid of the one that was.

It isn't nor has been anyone's responsibility to educate each other on our history. That is our responsibility.

One thing we know with certainty about PardonPalooza 2025 is that when *your* group pardons someone, it's because they're innocent. But when the other side pardons someone, it can only be because they're guilty as sin. heh ....total hypocrisy.
@stevebeschakis9775: The real hypocrisy is white America constantly condemning and demonizing black people for calling out the unfairness and endemic anti-black racism in the injustice system, and then allowing people like Biden and Trump who have actually presided over the justice system to make the same claims of unfairness when it comes to them or to their families and friends without receiving the same level of derision and expressions of contempt.
