Remember growing up as a teenager in the 1990s and early 2000s (Crownheights/Flatbush, Brooklyn) You could go over to Nostrand ave from St. John's pl to Bergen st and get the real "Bob Marley" from the Rastas! Franklin ave from Lincoln place to Park place; the best Jamaican Green, Black, and Brown "Bob Marley" from the Yardies and Guyanese! All up and down Flatbush ave from Lincoln Rd, all the way to the "Disfunction Junction" for the real "Bob Marley"! The Yardies, Rastas, Guyanese, and Trinidadians had the best Green, Brown, and Black! None of the Arizona, Mexico, California, or the lab created rubbish that they are now selling inside of the so called; Smoke shops!
The law that prevented the 20 thousand black soldiers from fighting for Ethiopia, did nothing to stop the thousands of Italian Americans from signing up and sailed to Italy to defend their mother land. Wa a ting. SMH
@tirandaz7612 because white people/ Europeans had accepted that Ethiopia belonged to Italy and that the conquest of Ethiopia would complete what they planned the African continent in 1884 at the Berlin Conference.
@@Ffiffijs Correct, although Ethiopia was also used to describe all black sub saharan Afrikans along with the lands of Kush all the way to Asia. It was the Axumite Empire that conquered the last kushite kingdom of Meroe in Sudan bu Negus Ezana.
@@floydjarvis2161 haileselassie was a puppet. Never Tigray or Eritrea king but Tigray and Eritrea fought mengestu while Amhara, who haileselassie comes from did nothing. Rastas call him god but did nothing. Ethiopia should have did in Africa what Japan did in Asia during wwii kicking out the Europeans out of Asia but the British couldn’t allow that in Africa
What Japan did? When they submitt prior to getting cancer from two atomic bombs? That’s the legacy!?! Eritrea was parties pre Mussolini and HM went fwd for it. Eritrea is the parroted colonial puppet. You are witnessing HM legacy, bout he didn’t do nothing. Run go ah Jerusalem School Room and learn history as well as life!
Light bulb moment during the conversations is great

Im curious. Ehat was the name of the country before it 2as called Ethiopia? Was it always called Ethiopia?
Kush, Nubia and Aksum.
Before it was called Ethiopia it was known as Abyssinia
Sudan is really ancient Ethiopia. Axum conquered Ethiopia. It’s not the same thing
@@Ffiffijs who are the people living in Eritrea and Ethiopia?
@@Ffiffijs Correct, although Ethiopia was also used to describe all black sub saharan Afrikans along with the lands of Kush all the way to Asia. It was the Axumite Empire that conquered the last kushite kingdom of Meroe in Sudan bu Negus Ezana.
Haileselassie was murdered in 1970s and nobody tried the avenge him but when Italy so called invades black Americans and Jamaicans care
Did you go to Zimbabwe and look for Mengitsu or just a chat you a chat!?
