Symbolism matters and to have Garvey's name ringing is upliftment for all of his children.

I man give thanks for the pardon small as it is. However, Jamaica we must teach Marcus teachings in school and universities. Stoo worry about contemporary teachings. There is no worry when it come to dutty dancehall music. Teach it and lead, that is what Garevy has taught us....lead. Jah live

Like Steven, I, too, am interested in reading the details outlined in the pardon.

I agree they should seek complete exoneration, but its neither here nor there for me. I am experience enough to know that no black man that truly fights for equal rights and justice will be free of any sort of conviction. In other words, his conviction only makes me admire him more knowing he is a black man.

The Jamaican Government will respect Marcus more and teach more about him in schools. When the white man move it seems like we move, sorry to say.

What the heck is Angela Brown Burke saying? Is she saying that the pardon is in effect an exoneration?

[trevorstewart]

What about the advocacy of our people returning to Africa.

Garvey conviction was just like Jesus trial & crucifiction. NAACP members, including W.E.B. Du Bois and Robert Bagnall were like Joseph Caiaphas, the high priest of Jerusalem, and the Sanhedrin, the Jewish council, brought Jesus before Pontius Pilate. The NAACP (Sanhedrin) with the aid of the FBI, and J. Edgar Hoover (Pontius Pilate) set up Garvey. Garvey was a Black nationalist and separatist, who teached, "Black is beautiful", Black pride, empowerment, Pan-African unity, and economic independence. Black people should establish their own economic power & organizations and not be dependent on the America (Rome). While the NAACP advocated for integration & dependent on white America for crumbs & scarps from their table .
