- Bob marley - Jamaican musician - Lived in Ridgmount Gardens, Bloomsbury (and Jamaica) What did he do aside from music? - advocated for the rights of black people - against oppression from westerners - advocated against poverty - brought Jamaican/Caribbean culture to mainstream media Why he matters to me?
- Love his music - believe for what he stands for and his message - he took something he loved (music)and was able to change the world with it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2XiYUYcpsT4 - directly witnessed police brutality in Jamaica and wanted to make a public statement Why should you care - Songs still bring social change - Delivers the BLM message - So much injustice but nothing is being done about - he is using his platform to spread positivity - Want to make an impact by doing something I love
