Revolutionary QOTD:Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery
None but ourselves can free our minds
Have no fear for atomic energy
'Cause none of them can stop the time
-Bob Marley from Redemption Song
The 25th anniversary of reggae singer, activist and Rastafarian prophet, Bob Marley's death is May 11. There is an interesting
post and comments at the
Huffington Post about his legacy. The "fear of atomic engergy" lyric may have some relevance vis a vis the
Iran nuke controversy. Maybe. I found this quote below when I had nearly finished this post. I had to add it, so it's a QOTD two-for.
Babylon System is the Vampire
Sucking the children day by day
Me say the Babylon System is the Vampire
Sucking the blood of the sufferers
Building church and university
Deceiving the people continually
Me say them graduating thieves and murderers
Look out now
Sucking the blood of the sufferers
Tell the children the truth
Tell the children the truth
Tell the children the truth right now
Come on and tell the children the truth
'Cause we've been trodding on
The winepress much too long
Got to Rebel, Got to Rebel Now
-Bob Marley from Babylon System
Yes brother Bob, I and I got to rebel. Be irie, mon.
