Emancipated From Mental Slavery: Selected Sayings of Marcus Garvey

Its important to have and be able to preserve sayings and collections of serious critical thoughts by someone who cared so deeply for the future of his people. To have a vision, and psychological blue print that still resonates today and could and should be used for unification… Hopefully one day….

It is amazing that he wrote about the black peoples state of being many years ago, and I can see it manifesting today. He was extremely insightful. I am always preaching about the need for black people to unite, but the mental state of slavery today makes it extremely challenging. There are many who walk around with their Eyes Wide Shut.

I enjoy reading. And, oftentimes learn something useful. And, found it to be true with this book

This particular photo speaks volumes.

This book, though it has gained some age over the years, contains much content that applies to modern life for any afro american trying to educate him or herself. I greatly suggest giving this book a read.

Marcus explaining his viewpoint eloquently and directly. If you are seeking an understanding of what he stood for then read this great book. It was deserving of 5 stars because it’s present day value.

500 years is enough. MG was right, we need to collect what money we can and leave. End our cultural Stockholm Syndrome and realize America is not our friend. Loving ourselves is not hating anyone else. Escaping our captors is not integration, but true emancipation.There is a non-violent, humane path to creating and maintaining a black Israel. Difficult, but possible.

I really enjoy this book. I've always been a fan of Marcus Garvey work. Very deep read. I recommend for all to read

It is a tiny book but with a great content and quotations of Marcus Garvey' speeches !

This book reminds those who are caught in the negative net of suffering and hopelessness that the way out is through self assertion. A must read for all who feel disenfranchised.

Nice quotes

Very interesting read.

Sharp, interesting…insights into one of the many separatist movements which have arisen in the post-colonial world, and its influence on, for instance, rastafarianism….poignant and thought-provoking…useful for understanding the evil of racism…good selection of quotes…recommended…
