Talk:Pan-African flag

message: :A flag must represent the standard by which its people live. Thus, the Universal African Flag, the 52nd Article of the Declaration of Rights of the Negro Peoples of the World was ratified in convention.
:There has been a great deal of talk and controversy over the origin, creation and use of the Red, Black and Green.  The UNIA hopes that this controversy can be clarified once and for all.
:There was no Red, Black and Green Flag prior to the coming of the Honorable Marcus Garvey and the founding of the UNIA.  Today there are many African Nations that have adopted the colors Red, Black and Green after the great Marcus Garvey and his program of African Redemption.  Any one claiming the creation of the Red, Black and Green is historically incorrect.  The UNIA organization will make every attempt to clear up any misunderstandings about the matter concerning the Red, Black and Green.  Further confusion can be misleading to the masses of Blacks throughout the country and the world.
Those sound like quotes; in which case they should be noted as such and sourced. Otherwise, ought to be reworded to be more neutral. E.g. removing adjectives such as "great Marcus Garvey", and citing why "Anyone claiming the creation of the Red, Black and Green" is incorrect, beyond the claims of UNIA. Or for that matter, mentioning who else is claiming the creation of it. --Mairi 02:51, 21 September 2005 (UTC)

message: I feel strongly that this article should be moved to the name Pan-African Flag as the current title, Red, black and green flag is neither its name, nor a phrase most people would use to look it up.  It's just a poorly-punctuated takeoff on the Red, White, and Blue, fine as a nickname of course but not suitable for an encyclopedia title.  UNIA flag would not be my choice, because though UNIA originated the flag, it is known much more widely as the Pan-African flag or Black Liberation flag. Pan-African flag does not currently exist as an article; Black Liberation flag redirects to Red, black and green flag.  I requested Pan-African flag rather than Black Liberation flag because the PAF use seems to be more current, and more reflective of:
* the current international use of the Pan-African flag by post-colonial African nations, and 
* the shift in focus in the U.S. from Black Liberation per se to identification with all African-heritage peoples, both in Africa and in diaspora.  
However, if there are strong feelings favoring Black Liberation flag over Pan-African flag, I would not object.  Please add your thoughts in Discussion section below Survey. -- Lisasmall 19:13, 31 March 2006 (UTC)

message: I've heard it said that the green stands for Ireland, because the UNIA identified their struggle for freedom with the struggle for independence of the Irish people, which was happening at the same time (i.e. 1920). Any truth to this? EamonnPKeane (talk) 00:02, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
