#28DaysOfBlackHistory #Day2 Marcus Garvey born in Jamaica and known for his “Back to Africa” campaign. He thought that blacks in America would forever be a permanent minority. Here we are almost a century later fighting for an even playing field. Guess he was on to something.
Marcus did launch the “Black Star Fleet” however it never made it to the motherland. The fleet went bankrupt after some “shady” dealings happened, and the Federal Govt ended up arresting and deporting Mr. Garvey (what a surprise).
He died in London. But, this black man is a trailblazing civil rights leader above all else! Thank you for your efforts Mr. Garvey…

See that brother in the back of the picture? His name is Twon Gabz one of the dopest rappers Chicago has ever seen and also a Cancer survivor, Breast Cancer at that.
This brother came to me yesterday and spoke some words that were beyond amazing. To summarize he just told me, I will never know how much love & respect he has for me in the most sincere, non homosexual (not that there’s anything wrong with that #Seinfeld) way.
I say all this to say, we ALL feel under appreciated more often than not. So you should tell people that you have love for how you feel. Words hold power and those words of appreciation could do wonders for someone’s psyche.
Funny enough, before Gabz talked to me, I extended that same love to a true homie and a dude that’s consigned me from day 1, @fashiongeekzo
God Speed & Be Good To People. You never know who’s watching the way you move and shake! ✌️✊
