Marcus Garvey was done so wrong

[HellRell804]

Martin Luther King should never be shifted on for the work he did

Never

Criticized ok, but never shytted on

But I didn't shyt on him tho. The same white liberals running game on us now had him making moves that were symbolically impactful but tactically useless. And when he woke up to that fact he was murdered.

“I interviewed the Imperial Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan to find out the Klan’s attitude toward the race. You may believe it or not-I made several statements to him, in which he said this: that the Klan is not organized for the absolute purpose of interfering with Negroes-for the purpose of suppressing Negroes, but the Klan is organized for the purpose of protecting the interests of the white race in America. Now anything that does not spell the interests of the white race in America does not come within the scope of the Ku Klux Klan. I found out, therefore, that the Ku Klux Klan was purely a racial organization standing up in the interests of white folks exclusive of the interests of others. You cannot blame any group of men, whether they are Chinese, Japanese, Anglo-Saxons or Frenchmen, for standing up for their interests or for organizing in their interest. I am not apologizing for the Klan or endeavoring to excuse the existence of the Klan, but I want a proper understanding about the Ku Klux Klan so that there can be no friction between the Negroes in America and the Ku Klux Klan, because it is not going to help.

With all due respect, Mr. Garvey was massively misinformed about the Klan and Black America. It also appears after meeting with them -- he still didn't get it.

what I underlined is a true statement today, I believe even living in a backwards rural southern or midwestern community the klan can't do anything to interfere with most black peoples ways of life. The other bolded is what you can say about MAGA garvey was ahead of his time studying white folk

He was the goat.

He got all his funding from blacks and employed all blacks.

He was all the way pro black

Garvey brought a klansmen to a meeting and had him speak to everyone, Garvey told everyone this is what they actually think of you, the others are just too afraid to say it

Shout ADOS to your lungs burst, but cape for someone who didn't believe you played a role in building America and should leave for Africa.

If his words came from a brother today, or just some other coli member, he would be vilified.

Dam garvey was like the goat black leader to me.

At least you were man enough to realize you were ignorant. A lot of people on here talk shyt and have no idea about with they are talking about. The whole black debate between the different nationalities is rooted in ignorance. Shout out to @xoxodede for the knowledge

What time is breaking bread with the KKK over the shared belief that AA should go back to Africa because they play a role in building the country?

Yea i thought most of his supporters were ados.

Didnt kno he was heavy in ny and dc with carribean community. Mainly causr i didnt think carribean was here back than.

He still goat level to me

I will always respect he crowdfunded all black and employed all black.

Also he used the klan to teach blacks what many reg whites feel.

I have to agree. I think a lot of Black Americans don't take the time to learn about the people they look up too.

Mr. Garvey deserves his respect and place in Global Black History -- but his beliefs and actions regarding Native AA's and what we needed to do was off and high-key disrespectful IMO.

Do you think Native Blacks didn't know how the KKK and whites felt about them? Come on.

All Black businesses "crownfunded all black and employed all black" back then -- they had no choice. IF, they were blessed to have a business and not have it burned down and destroyed.

I would advise you to learn more about Reconstruction and Jim Crow. Also, it's a few books on the KKK you should check out.

You can find out about just some the demonic ish whites were doing right after Emancipation here: The Freedmen's Bureau Online

Educate yourself fully.

I have to disagree.

That was their whole purpose as well - they had many goals. Suppressing -- hence killing Black men and women who tried to vote, open a store, making more money, owning land. As well, the goal to kill as many Native Blacks as possible.
