"Old Marcus Garvey" by Burning Spear

I first heard about Marcus Garvey through the music of Burning Spear. Of course, it wasn't until I came to America that I learned about Marcus Garvey because he was never a part of my high school curriculum. It was the musicians, the "players of instrumants," as Seeco liked to say, who awakened my curiosity about Old Marcus Garvey, and since then, I have been chanting with the Spear, "Please remember, please remember..."


Remember Marcus Garvey and sign the petition for his exoneration:
