Peter Tosh ranks next to Bob Marley as the most well known Reggae performer worldwide. Once described as "Che Guevara" with a band, Peter's reputation as a Reggae Revolutionary and uncompromising advocate, have turned him into a Third World icon. Despite an almost studied lack of attention from the mainstream music industry up until recently, Tosh's stro...ng consciousness-raising and conscience-stirring songs of protest, are still inspiring millions of listeners worldwide.

So it is, that even without being listed on any tourist brochure, and without any kind of significant publicity, an ongoing stream of cars and buses full of people, still pull up to Tosh's birthplace in Belmont, along the sea coastof Westmoreland in Jamaica. Fans of the Bush Doctor are making their own way, their own pilgrimage, in honor of a musician who is often denied his due in his very own homeland. As of now, there is no official Peter Tosh Memorial as there is for Bob Marley in Nine Miles, St. Ann. However, plans are ongoing to build and expand on what Peter's family has already started at Belmont, and we support such efforts 100 percent.

Peter Tosh is probably most notorious for his high profile pro-marijuana advocacy. He advocated the spiritual, agricultural, industrial, recreational and medicinal use of the International Herb a.k.a. ganja or marijuana. He consistently touted and promoted the Herb as an antidote, antibiotic, antiseptic/antibacterial, antivirus, antitoxin, antihistamine, antienzyme -a general, all-purpose, Nature's Own, Fix-It remedy! And of course, he was always puffing on a pipe or a big Jamaican spliff (i.e. 5 or 6 American 'joints' rolled into one 'fat one')… and inhaling too. Besides being a self-proclaimed “Walking Billboard” for the relaxation/elimination of marijuana laws, Peter was also very knowledgeable about Jamaica’s colonial history and was the most articulate and most militant, anti-imperialist and anti-apartheid advocate of the three Wailing Wailers.

So come on thru Belmont soon, before the inevitable commercialization of the area gets under way full scale. Come and see it as Peter saw it, as it was and has been, up to now. But always remember to look over your shoulder if you're going to light up and take a toke. Smoking Herb is still illegal in Jamaica (although sometimes you'd never believe it) and despite all that Peter tried to do, there's still a mighty long way to go before more world governments "Legalize It!" Yes, the Jamaican government has recently been looking at the possibility of decriminalizing ganja, but smoking Herb is still illegal in Jamaica at this time (although sometimes you’d never believe it.) And please don’t take any marijuana aboard any airline, especially not on Air Jamaica, when you’re flying out of the island. Air Jamaica has paid too many fines and gets too much hassle from US customs and the DEA as it is.

Finally, always remember that “You can’t blame the youth. You can’t fool the youth!” And remember that we all will have to “Get Up Stand Up” for ourselves before Africans and poor people everywhere –regardless of color- can gain their “Equal Rights and Justice” from the wealthy downpressor men who rule this world. Knowing the militant, Maroon-like mentality that Peter possessed, I am certain sure that the Bush Doctor himself would want you all to know that.
