Peter Tosh conceived and staged the Youth Consciousness concerts in 1974 to promote awareness of political issues and to discourage partisan violence among Jamaican youth. In 1982 his performance at the Youth Consciousness festival is concedered by archivists as one of his best and contains one of Peter's Livatribes (Peter's word for speeches). "No way can Youth Consciousness arrive unless the Youth know the TRUTH, Without the TRUTH there is no Consciousness,"
