During the turn of the century, Marcus Garvey was estabishing the Universal Negro Improvement Association(UNIA). He was often ridiculed with comments like 'where is the Black man's Country' or 'Where is the the Black man's flag?' In 1920, at a UNIA convention the flag was adopted to symbolize: Red for the blood binds African people and was shed in the fight for liberation, Black for the people who represent a nation, if not a nation-state and Green for the rich and abundant homeland of Africa
