Marcus Garvey Quotes About Suffering

Quotes about: Suffering

• A race that is solely dependent upon another for economic existence sooner or later dies.

• That we suffer so much today under whatsoever flag we live is proof positive that constitutions and laws, when framed by the early advocates of human liberty, never included and were never intended for us as a people. It is only a question of sheer accident that we happen to be fellow citizens today with the descendants of those who, through their advocacy, laid the foundation for human rights.
