Thank you.

Bob was assassinated to stop his rising influence on so-called Third World politricks. This was part of an undeclared war by white nations to break the unity of all Black people globally that was taking place in the 1950's, 60's and 70's. The result was that people like Patrice Lamumba, Steven Biko, Sadat, Marley, Malcolm X, Martin King and many many others were killed because white nations knew that the "body" (Pan-Africanist Movement) could not survive without its "head".

Alan Cole and Carlton Barrett



Bob sets to music the speech presented to the United Nations by H.I.M Haile Selassie.
Selassie's plea for human rights now created the most powerful anti-racist statement.



WAR


Until the philosophy which holds one race
Superior and another inferior
Is finally and permanently discredited and abandoned
Everywhere is war, me say war

That until there is no longer first class
And second class citizens of any nation
Until the colour of a man's skin
Is of no more significance than the colour of his eyes
Me say war

That until the basic human rights are equally 
Guaranteed to all, without regard to race
Dis a war

That until that day
The dream of lasting peace, world citizenship
Rule of international morality
Will remain in but a fleeting illusion
To be pursued, but never attained
Now everywhere is war, war

And until the ignoble and unhappy regimes
That hold our brothers in Angola, in Mozambique,
South Africa sub-human bondage
Have been toppled, utterly destroyed
Well, everywhere is war, me say war

War in the east, war in the west
War up north, war down south
War, war, rumours of war

And until that day, the African continent 
Will not know peace, we Africans will fight
We find it necessary and we know we shall win
As we are confident in the victory

Of good over evil, good over evil, good over evil
Good over evil, good over evil, good over evil
