Well, you are entitled to your opinions, but you should also be respectful to Marcus Garvey, for his great liberation work which he carried out in the streets of Harlem in New York, and all over the world, by opening the eyes on millions of African people, to the great and glorious fact, that Africa is for the Africans, those at home and those abroad. If it was not for Marcus Garvey, you would not be here writing about Ras Tafari Makonnen even as we speak. It is also wrong for you to discriminate against other African people, when indeed you are, and were an African person, before you became Rastafari person, since if you are an African person, you were born from African parents, it is therefore, a very ungrateful thing, for you to try to belittle your roots from which you came. There is no separation between African people and Rastafari people, they are all Africans, the only difference is that some worship Rastafari, and some do not, but we are all Africans just the same, none of us is better than the others, no discrimination among African people, if one African has done you wrong, you just cannot condemn the entire African races as a result. There is a lesson for you to learn, when you become a Rastafari person, you have become a servant for African people, your duty is to struggle and agitate for the liberation of African people everywhere, learn that lesson well, and never forget it. I do ghope you have learnd something here, and I hope we can continue to reason. Thank you for posting.
Again I send many oceans of blessings and self determination to African people everywhere.
ONE BLACK HEART ONE BLACK LOVE
