    New on TikTok: The Danger of Cultural Erasure For generations, Black children learned history from books that denied them a history of power. That denial is not an accident. It is a weapon. Cultural erasure creates a disconnect from your own roots of greatness. And that void becomes the breeding ground for self-doubt that convinces potential leaders to play small. This is not a personal flaw. It is a systemic obstacle designed to stop collective progress before it starts. Save this. Send it to someone who was never taught their own history. Full episode on The Garvey Classroom — link in bio How does cultural erasure affect Black children and their sense of identity? When the textbook erases your ancestors, you grow up disconnected from centuries of power and agency. That disconnection breeds self-doubt that looks personal but is systemic. From the Caribbean to the UK to the US, Black children inherit a void where their history of greatness should be. Why is knowing Black history essential to Black youth leadership? Self-doubt does not come from nowhere. It comes from generations of denied history. When young Black people discover their lineage of builders, organizers, and revolutionaries, the lie of playing small loses its grip. Knowledge of self is the precondition for leading others. Where can I learn more about reclaiming Black history and fighting cultural erasure? The Garvey Classroom at thegarveyclassroom.com restores the history that was denied through Garvey's teachings on self-knowledge, African pride, and collective power in the Unstoppable Heroes podcast and weekly essays. #MarcusGarvey #BlackHistory #KnowYourHistory #BlackEducation #BreakFree
