dr. lewis garvey. so with that, i would like to bring professor hansford up to talk a little bit about the legal case, and possibly introduce this as well. thank you. professor justin hansford: good afternoon. i want to begin by reading you an excerpt from the legal case against marcus garvey, an opinion authored by the second court of appeals in 1925. it may be true garvey fancied himself if not a messiah, that he deemed himself a man with a message that he was going to deliver, and he was going to have ships that would take his people out of bondage. but even with this assumed, it remains that if it is gospel in part involves exhortation to buy worthless stocks, accompanied by deceivingly false statements as to the words thereof, he was guilty of a scheme or artifice. we need not delay to examine in detail to examine the fraud scheme exhibited by practically uncontradicted evidence. appeal through the ambition, emotions or race consciousness of men of color, it was a simple and familiar device of whi

dr. julius garvey. the answer, i think will shop, disappoint, and greatly disappoint many of the readers. we submitted it to the department of justice into the white house, and i think it will also shop, disappoint and surprise many of them.an surprise many of them. what it railed reveal is it was deliberately and intentionally silenced, and the law was just a tool that was used by j edgar hoover and other people who were interested in seeing garvey's message depressed. today in 2006 teen, president obama has an opportunity to write this wrong. why is this the time to make things right? we outlined three reasons in the legal brief. first of all, this is not the first time the president has given a posthumous pardon to someone who has passed away. both president clinton and president bush have given posthumous parting in the last years of their administration. clinton 1999 and president bush 2008. these are definitely legal, and definitely president for doing so. secondly, marcus garvey is innocent. we h

dr. garvey and i have traveled quite a bit. you want to know about marcus garvey you go with his son to trinidad. the whole place turned out for him. two months ago we went to south africa and libya. the whole place turned out for marcus garvey. while many of us don't know and forgotten, the rest of the black world knows. they admire mark a scurvy. -- marcus garvey. he said can you organize washington? everybody always lay stuff on it. i said what are you putting on me now, julius? but sometimes when i came here this is what this is about, what we really are talking about. what is the strategy going forward? pardonhelp to get this done. -- i don't know why it hasn't got done. barack obama would endorse we are talking about today. maybe we have not pushed the right buttons. he is trying to save the world and keep donald trump from taking over and all of this kind of thing that he does in the course of a day. isnow his heart and spirit there. it is a matter of how do we go about decisioning it. doesn't happen they share it will h

dr. ryan frazier who teaches philosophy and marcus garvey to young people. >> thank you. fork you dr. garvey spearheading this and thank you just think, for your important work and going through legal channels. as dr. harvey mentioned, we stand on the shoulders of what marcus garvey started. this whole notion of a black president or black leader signaling progress comes from the energy of marcus garvey. i applaud this effort as much as i have doubts about obama heating it. will do it fori that strong reason and also because i study in the --, as wroteow, and tony martin definitive works on her and her important influence in making onlynia that required not male but female presidents. my basic question is regarding the obama administration did reply to this question and they said that time had expired. can justin respond to this. how do we and light of knowing administration a few years earlier so the time has expired. so that legal argument comes up how we respond? ourhe good news is that time has not expired. in 2011 is that another attorney who was unconnected to the family submitted

this is, as it was yesterday, marcus garvey 129th birthday. yesterday was dr. julius garvey's birthday. i will not say how many years. it wasn't 129. charming as he is. [laughter] >> i no longer have birthdays. >> and i'm here in a matter of hours just returning abroad. because there was no other place to me to be, because its tenure in honor of his father is like standard in honor of my own. in standing in honor of my own is like standing in honor of all the fathers who dared to walk and climb that trajectory that has always put before them. but we do get there. right? even if it is after life. our presence, that which soars in reins about us, that we whisper for some reason or another because it seems to be humble. .. messages are passed on to our children and become a backbone of strength to them, our children, we need to talk about young kids, 30 don't have to advocate black lives matter, but see what i am talking about, connect the dots, they are not doing it, they don't have to say it over and over to convince somebody. 30 and under is not having to fight

dr. garvey would think about the state of relations in the u.s. now. >> i think i alluded to that by drawing a straight line between 1916 and 2016. i think the benefit is to legitimize the person and the ideology. it's sort of like coming out of the closet. you don't have to whisper. there's a difference. i think a lot of people, because of the stigma, my father was in the organization and my uncle and we used to go to meetings and so on and so forth. then i felt stunned. it's that kind of a whisper thing because it's not quite proper within american society. even not a surly and caribbean, it's not necessarily properly. there's some aversive notice about this idea. that needs to be part of the byproducts because we will not be going on the campaign to spread the word again 100 years years later for what he stood for what he meant. just to mention, and needs to be a grassroots movement. i think they also mentioned, we need organizations, need organizations, we need different social groups, we need individuals to get up and stand up for our rights
