the difference between these conscious people and conscious people of today, is they actually do something about it other than talk like the rest of us.
Anton Hall I agree. Talk about a hero. The greatest military strategist ever in the history of the world. Won seven battles in seven days. Defeated three of the world's white armies. Some black producer is trying to get the funds to do a movie. Denzel would be perfect.
Sojourner Truth should be added as well as Steve Cokely and Chokwe Lumumba who gave much of their lives to the struggle of Black people. For many decades, Cokely & Lumumba stepped out on a limb to expose white supremacy and call for the liberation of Black people.
A small country as Jamaica with a population of only 2.8 million people have so much people in the top 21 black person in the world who put their lives on the line in helping other fellow black people.

This list is bogus and lacks any type of historical vision..they put up Khalid Muhammad , a dubious fake Black Panther and leave out Geronimo Pratt , Patrice Lumumba, Bobby Hutton?
Slavery in Jamaica was brutal growing cane and providing sugar for the British empire who made a fortune. The work was so hard and the days so long that many slaves did not live very long under the callous conditions and this ignited many slave rebellions lead by heroes such as Paul Bogal and George William Gordon. Rebellion has been in Jamaica blood for centuries and time has hardened that sprit that still lives on today.
There are so many..Assata Shakur would have been nice.
Nat Turner?
My boy Toussaint Louverture, tactically proficient.
Honor is due to all. Rest in Power!

buying black is the most sane approach to the economic and subsequent social and political problems facing our community.
Nzingha Shabaka no dezeil would not be perfect for that role should go to idris
Why not?
Marcellus Shane Jackson When I made that comment Nat Turner was not listed. I am glad to see he was added.
Alecia Puakai Armstead Oh, I see
I would have taken Mandela (no disrespect) and put Nat Turner on the list.

They should also add to the list the Jamaican National Hero, George William Gordon.

Everyone listed is deceased…hence the title.
Exactly… Or perhaps the author understands that he is protected by God and in no real danger lol.
jamaican people are straight warriors.
Farntella Graham Jamaicans need to now re-channel that warrior spirit in pursuit of Ma'at and African Self-determination.
