New on TikTok: They made you doubt your beauty. Garvey made you remember. Marcus Garvey said, “Black skin is not a badge of shame, but rather a glorious symbol of national greatness.” From the moment we could see ourselves, they tried to make us doubt our reflection. Lips too full. Nose too broad. Skin too dark. Hair too thick. But none of that was ever a flaw. It was a mirror of your origin. A sign of your power. Your skin is not a mistake. It is a flag. A declaration. A legacy. So lift your head. Affirm your beauty. Walk in your reflection like it’s royalty—because it is. Keep honoring the beauty they tried to make you forget. #MarcusGarveyQuote #AfricanBeauty #DailyGarveyWisdom #BlackIsBeautiful #BreakTheStandard Summary (SEO Description) This TikTok uses a powerful Marcus Garvey quote to challenge Eurocentric beauty standards and affirm African beauty as sacred and strong.
