Bob as a child was known as the red skin. The people around him in Jamaica were all dark skinned and black. Of course he was lighter his father was a white English man. Since he was the only light skinned they would tease him or in other words reject him.

ReplyDeleteThat's sad. But at least it helped him become the person he was. Nice blog.
ReplyDeleteIt is sad that bullying was going on back then and it is still going on. I am a little glad he got bullied because it makes his music so great. However, I am sad that he had to go through this either way. I enjoy your blog and its theme very much!
ReplyDeleteBob Marley's music has always been about peace. So this type of action has contributed to his successful career and strong beliefs. Great Blog
ReplyDeleteIts great to see how he didn't let it get to him and how his music reflects peace not hate. Great man, great blog.
