Marcus Garvey: Unity (UMOJA)

Unity

The symbol at the top of the page shows the Kwanzaa symbol of Umoja (Unity): "To strive for a principled and harmonious togetherness in the family, community, nation and world African community."

Throughout his life, Marcus stressed the need for unity In The Philosophy and Opinions of Marcus Garvey, he wrote, “We desire harmony and unity to-day more than ever, because it is only through the bringing together of the four hundred million Negroes into one mighty bond that we can successfully pilot our way through the avenues of opposition and the oceans of difficulties that seem to confront us.”

Write a paragraph about how you or someone you know is promoting unity in your family or community.
