    New on TikTok: What the red, black, and green flag really means Marcus Garvey said, “Show me the race or the nation without a flag, and I will show you a race of people without any pride.” Red. Black. Green. Three colors that carry the memory of a people. Red—for the blood that unites us. Black—for the color of our skin. Green—for the land of our ancestors, rich and full. In 1920, Garvey gave us a flag because we are a nation—scattered, but not lost. One people across many lands. So when you see that flag, Know it’s not decoration. It’s a declaration. We are still here. We are still rising. One God. One Aim. One Destiny #RedBlackGreen #PanAfricanFlag #MarcusGarveyQuote #TheGarveyClassroom #UNIAFlag This video answers the question: What is the significance of the red, black, and green flag? It explains the origins of the Pan-African flag created by Marcus Garvey and the meaning behind each color: red for blood, black for identity, green for land and abundance. from pathlib import Path # Define the content content = """What the red, black, and green flag really means Marcus Garvey said, “Show me the race or the nation without a flag, and I will show you a race of people without any pride.” Red.
