The world is at a pivotal time in history and I cannot allow this time to pass without memorializing the impact that Donald Trump’s policies will have on people from African descent and his role in propelling them into their renaissance.
While I’m going about my business tending to the garden here in Jamaica, I’m paying close attention to the politics around me. Particularly that of Jamaica. Why Jamaica? Because you see, the political, social, and spiritual implications of colonialism on African people in Jamaica is a microcosm of the much larger global impact of colonialism on African people as reflected in African governments.
Donald Trumps refusal to invite African Nations to his Inauguration because he denounced African governments as shit hole counties for oppressing their own people. My post, titled “Title” provides a historical look at the US and other colonialist governments’ role in the oppression of black Africans.
Political corruption has long been a problem memorialized in song, through rebel or reggae music, to remind the children of formerly enslaved Africans that the source of their downpression- is a Colonial form of Governance and a colonial Lifestyle (A Babylon System).
Jamaica has long been in the world’s per view for is contributions in sports, entertainment, music and most recently politics, due to Kamila Harris’ campaign for US Presidency. It will play a pivotal role on the global marketplace as the headquarters of the 6th Region of the African Union; creating an economic bridge between the African Continent and the African diaspora.
The convergence of the pardoning of Marcus Garvey and the celebration of Reggae Music Month should not be overlooked. Although one of Jamaica’s first National Heroes, many Jamaicans are unfamiliar with the reason Marcus Garvey needed pardoning or the role he played in the Rastafari movement.
It is from this juncture in history that I will begin my commentary and ultimately a historical review of Rastafarianism that will explain the divide between Rastafarianism and the colonialist supported Jamaican government. The rift that still remains, has its roots in Rastas goal to destroy the Babylonian system and return to sovereignty.
Music was one of the mediums through which the ancients communicated their messages to the masses and down through the generations. Reggae music was the medium through which Rastafarians communicated their messages to the masses and down through generations.
During the earlier days, Reggae music was heavily censored and often times band from being played over the airwaves due to controversial messages being communicated through songs.
The influx of Jamaican’s back into the country as a result of Donald Trump’s deportation order forced Jamaicans at home and in the diaspora to take a closer look at how Jamaica was being governed.
What Triggered the Renaissance of Black Africans in Jamaica.
By exposing the circumstances of Marcus Garvey’s arrest in Jamaica for sedition—his bold demand for the imprisonment of corrupt judges, politicians, and police—alongside the exploitation of Jamaican workers by foreign companies, Jamaicans both at home and in the diaspora were compelled to dismantle the lingering remnants of colonial rule from within their government.
With livable wages and intelligent governance, Jamaica will be an island paradise to which many would happily return.
Journey with me on a historical perspective of how Colonialist corporations in the US, UK, France supported puppet leaders in Africa, Haiti, Jamaica, and other African led nations to economically oppress black Africans and how Donald Trumps deportation order triggered the Black African Renaissance.
