New on TikTok: Marcus Versus the Massa. **Description:** This #haiku fable recounts the timeless story of Marcus Garvey, a visionary leader who inspired a people shackled by oppression to rediscover their strength and nobility. In a small, forgotten town, the people lived under the shadow of "The Man," who controlled their labor, crushed their spirits, and made them believe they were nothing. Though they were freed from physical chains, their minds remained imprisoned by fear, shame, and doubt. One day, a man named Marcus was born—a man destined to lead. With his words of strength and his unyielding determination, Marcus taught the people to believe in their own greatness. He urged them to see their worth, to remember their history, and to reclaim their power. Fearing Marcus's influence, "The Man" used lies and manipulation to undermine him. Imprisoned and silenced, Marcus’s absence left the people adrift once more, falling back into despair. But Marcus, unbroken by years of injustice, emerged stronger. With a powerful speech, he reignited the people's spirits, calling on them to "free themselves from mental slavery" and embrace the dignity that had always been theirs. Through his courage and conviction, Marcus led the people away from their oppressors and toward a life of freedom, pride, and hope. This fable is a celebration of resilience, a call to action, and a reminder of the power of self-belief and unity. **The End.** #blackauthors #blackgraphicnovel #over50contentcreators #BookTok #blackbooktok
