The fighting of the Maroons did not bring about Repartriation because the British did
not respect them. While the Maroons were living in Maroon Towns, slavery was still going on against black people in the entire Island of Jamaica, There was also an arrangement between the British and the Maroons, that if any slave escape from the plantation and come to Maroon Town, that they should be taken to the British and they would be rewarded for doing so. It was the Maroons who captured Paul Bogle, it was also the Maroons who captured Tacky who led Tack's rebellion, Tacky was gunned down, by a sharp shooting Maroon who's name was Davy. This information can be found in most history books, you can go check it for yourself.
Now attitude is something which we learn from each other, the people who you grow up around, you will generally pick up some of their attitudes, and we also pick up some other attitudes at our work places, or on the streets, or in our community, whether they be good or bad. We do pick up a lot of attitudes from our families and our friends.
Take the best care of yourself and your people
Again I send many oceans of blessings and self determination to African people everywhere.
ONE BLACK HEART ONE BLACK LOVE.
