Many Caribbean artists were very vocal against Apartheid,who could forget that witty hit song by Eddie Grant give me hope Johanna,many people thought he was singing about a girl,but the song was an overt anti apartheid song. Africa will always love Caribbean people for how they stood with us in our fight against imperialism and apartheid. Africa loves Caribbean.
Jimmy Cliff was the first artist to stand up against Apartheid irrespective of the consequences to himself musically and personally. Great video RAS. ❤️💛💚🖤
I wish I was old enough to have experienced those old school reggae artists during that time. They brought so much power and good vibes with them it gives me chills to learn and hear about it. Being from Chicago to know Peter Tosh and Bob Marley blew into the windy city is much for me. I was a young boy when they came thur, didn't know about reggae music growing up in Chicago during the 80's. Reggae music didn't get any air during that time in Chicago.
I always remember Ziggy Marley's song - Jah got the power to move ya. Jimmy made a statement about Apartheid. Also so brave and he used his music powers to show unity. Wow. Wonderful story. God bless him and South Africa today. Regards from Bougainville Island, Buka, PNG.❤❤😂😂
Being an adherent of Ras Tafari Movemant in the late 1960s InI had the overstanding about how evil the apartheid regime in South Afrika was. InI chanted constantly against it and all forms of settler colonialism n neo colonialism worldwide including here in the island of Jamaica. Ras Tafari Movemant stands firmly for Afrikan Liberation.
Your channel is is wonderful. You’re doing good work. Keep it up society long as you keep making these video. I’m part of you. Great music, great reggae music.
We need artists united for a Peacefull Palestian State and to stop the apartheid regime of actual government of Israel, togheter for soul's oneness, Jah know
But he did…. That’s what most of you fail to realize, Bob was the oppressors tool. If Bob was real he would’ve let the world know Peter Tosh was the true king of Reggae Music…. Bob was used as a political tool. There were bigger artists than Bob, however Bob had the complexion.
@@tiffanybrown368 hmm you felt so! Men were born with different destiny.Bob was targeted for death because the system saw he had refused to work for them
Jamaica ns such small island with so much power ful people Glad me a one 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲

I think you should ask Jimmy Cliff about the performance he held in Lesotho in the 80s. A cloud of dust engulfed the stadium.
Didn't know about this concert.
There are a lot we didn't know about South Africa back then.
Censorship.......
It was really a wonderful would and beautiful people 👍
Powerful testimony.
Respect 🇯🇲👊🏾

Imagine if Bob Marley had had the opportunity to perform there.....

socrates is not an egyptian he is greek who studied the egypian mystery systems and way of life
What became of Jimmy Cliff?
Still touring and making music !!
The same things happened in America.
Well we just united to aid Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan. I have my well researched opinions but it is truly good to see our congress unite 👍
@@Infinitebrandonto uphold Israel apartheid regime ? =. Not good
@@andreskorge1828 that's my only qualm. May Biden send most of the money to Ukraine and Taiwan
I was there, it was amazing
Shameful those that went for the Sun City dollar.
Jimmy if was was Bob he was going to cancel on that day
Whoa-Yoouie
