New on TikTok: Redefining Education_ Empower Your Heritage & Community Pride Marcus Garvey said, “Having had the wrong education…the Negro has become his own greatest enemy.” You’ve passed every test, earned every degree. But if all that effort left you unsure of your own history, or proud of everyone’s story but your own, is that really education? Or is it miseducation? That’s why you can feel smart in their world and still powerless in yours. Why you can lead in their institutions, but struggle to build for your people. Your learning should arm you with pride, skill, and purpose. Upgrade your skills in ways that free you and strengthen your community. Learn from our thinkers. Build with people who share your mission. Come home to where you belong. Q: What did Marcus Garvey mean by “wrong education”? A: He meant education that strips you of pride, hides your history, and prepares you to serve others instead of building for your own people. Q: How can I “upgrade my skills” in a liberation-focused way? A: Learn trades, technology, organizing skills, and community economics while grounding yourself in Black history and thought. Q: Why end with “Come home to where you belong”? A: It’s an invitation to reconnect with your people, culture, and purpose—turning learning into service and unity. #MarcusGarvey #MarcusGarveyQuote #BlackEducation #Miseducation #BlackLiberation #KnowYourHistory { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "VideoObject", "name": "Educated for What?", "description": "Marcus Garvey warned against the wrong education.
