They have their origins in the Garvey movement and Marcus Garvey promoted Pan Africanism - which promoted anti-coloniliams in the pan african world. His writings, meetings, and philosophies were shared with African leaders at that time who were collborating for self liberation. So the colors that are in the flag, represent the philosophy of pan africanism which the presidents in the 1960's where influenced by. American holiday Kwanza, uses thie flag b/c it originates with the Garvey movement that started in the US and worked with the African countries in sharing ideas, principals and philosophies for Pan Africanism. The colors also represent Green (land), Red (bloodshed), and Black for the people -- None of those factors will change in Malawi which is why the new Mw flag kept those colors nor KE b/c there colonial history was similar. Also Kenyatta and Banda were both Pan-Africanists, which explains the colors of the flag. I wish this article had dug deeper into the origins of the flags and the symbols behind them. The Libyan and Malawi Flags are certainly similar, but we need to remember that Africa is one continent , Arab or non-Arab , as a people , we all underwent colonialism, we all had bloodshed, we all have fertile land, and all had Black people so yes, our flags are going to look alike.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1728270074400333925.post-72604950559269341932011-07-22T21:34:09.261-04:002011-07-22T21:34:09.261-04:00hello there, the Libyan flag is geniune, it was no...hello there, the Libyan flag is geniune, it was not decided or formed by some wishy-washy dictator like who everin controll malawi or whatever... the libyan flag was chosen by he Libyan People, in a free election and its colors and its shape and mesarment was consituted in the Libyan Constitution , which was approved by the libyan people in a free refrundum in....(and guess what year!!!???) in 1951.... at that time theere is no malawi or halawi or halaween....
