Book of the Month
"Marcus Garvey and the Vision of Africa"
by Amy Jacques Garvey, edited by Dr. John Henrik Clarke
Among Black leaders, Marcus Garvey (1887-1940) was unique. His popularity was universal, his
program for the return of African people to their motherland shook the foundations of three
empires, all subsequent Black Power movements have owed a debt to his example, and his prophecy
has been fulfilled in the independence that brought into being more than thirty African nations.
This illuminating reader shows Garvey in all his dimensions. Among the many contributors are, in addition to Garvey himself, W. E. B. Du Bois, E. Franklin Frazier, William Z. Foster, Amy Jacques Garvey, and the editor, John Henrik Clarke.
Born August 17, 1887, died June 10, 1940.
