DID YOU KNOW

MARCUS GARVEY

Born in St. Ann's Bay, Jamaica, on August 17, 1887.

Marcus Garvey was the youngest of 11 children. Garvey moved to Kingston at the age of 14, found work in a printshop, and became acquainted with the abysmal living conditions of the laboring class. He quickly involved himself in social reform, participating in the first Printers' Union strike in Jamaica in 1907 and in setting up the newspaper The Watchman. Leaving the island to earn money to finance his projects, he visited Central and South America, amassing evidence that black people everywhere were victims of discrimination. He visited the Panama Canal Zone and saw the conditions under which the West Indians lived and worked. He went to Ecuador, Nicaragua, Honduras, Colombia and Venezuala.

Everywhere, blacks were experiencing great hardships.

WHATS NEW
Reggae Music has suffered from over-commercialization and artistic abuse.There has been a conspicuos absence of original music, for example, with musicians more interested in "gigging" than preserving the roots of this genre. This is not the only form of music which has met the same dilema. Reggae Music in its original form has always been about raising the consciousness of the listener. Reggae is a "message music" to quote Bob Marley.
The main aim of "Visions Of Rasta " is to elevate the standard of the music . To return Reggae to its rightfull place as a music to teach and uplift the spirit. Our mission is to reveal the roots and original concept of Reggae, as well as to entertain.
