Marcus Mosiah Garvey, Jr., ONH (17 August 1887 – 10 June 1940), was a Jamaican political leader, publisher, journalist, entrepreneur, and orator who was a proponent of the Pan-Africanism movement, to which end he founded the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League (UNIA-ACL). He also founded the Black Star Line, a shipping and passenger line which promoted the return of the African diaspora to their ancestral lands.
Prior to the 20th century, leaders such as Prince Hall, Martin Delany, Edward Wilmot Blyden, and Henry Highland Garnet advocated the involvement of the African diaspora in African affairs. Garvey was unique in advancing a Pan-African philosophy to inspire a global mass movement and economic empowerment focusing on Africa known as Garveyism. Promoted by the UNIA as a movement of African Redemption, Garveyism would eventually inspire others, ranging from the Nation of Islam to the Rastafari movement (some sects of which proclaim Garvey as a prophet).
Garveyism intended persons of African ancestry in the diaspora to “redeem” the nations of Africa and for the European colonial powers to leave the continent. His essential ideas about Africa were stated in an editorial in the Negro World entitled “African Fundamentalism”, where he wrote: “Our union must know no clime, boundary, or nationality… to let us hold together under all climes and in every country…”

Someone should make a movie about Marcus Garvey. It would be tragic, but really good
So the U.N.I.A basically turned into U.B.N.
Where are these uniforms now?
I've always wanted to read about Marcus Garvey every time someone speaks his name. Unfortunately, I didn't learn anything about him in school. Which is sad because he help shaped our nation. It was sad how he died. May his soul Rest In Peace. Today, in the year 2020. We are still fighting for our rights to be treated as equal.
Chaka brought me in here 🙏🏾
I truly believe black America would be better off if they listened to Marcus Garvey regarding Pan-Africanism.
Year 2020 riots everywhere black people getting killed by police for being black. Here to understand how to fight this mess. Have to restudy history. As the president say make America great again well it wasn’t great for us but leaders were great. So here we are.
Great
Read about him instead. So much detail in what he tried to do.
★★★★★★★★★★★

Oh wow! He used the word pale face a hundreds ago in which is still being used till this day a 100 years later 2020, WHITE HATETRED, who's surprised
After leading a movement based on Black unity, strength and independence, Garvey's movement was co-opted by Jewish Communists led by their puppets in the NAACP., a movement founded by New York Jewish money run out of an office that had no Blacks in power which Garvey pointed out. WEB DuBoise was a puppet of Jewish money. Rather than strength and independence, the NAACP used Black Americans as proxy warriors to attain their goals which weren't Black goals. The NAACP preached victimhood, not strength. The Black – Jewish Alliance finally fell apart in the late 1960's. Martin Luther King was a tool of his New York masters while Malcolm X pointed out the contradiction of an NAACP movement financed and controlled by Jewish masters.
Love and balance ❤️💛💚⚫️👑🤴🏾👸🏿🇬🇳🇯🇲🇬🇭🇰🇪
That day will come again
Marcus was way ahead of his time far was more aggressive than Martin Luther King
I hate how these white narrators always want to ensure that they stress on the negative side of our people Marcus Garvey was a great man and his supporters were so many much much more than his so called millions of haters…..we black people cannot view our history through a white lens anymore
We born from west Africa now and will always said Africa for Africans both at home and abroad. We will take back our continent one day by any means necessary.
There are unfortunately many parallels; character, wise to hairpiece (trump). He's actually headed for the same fate; just more comfortable surroundings for him.
What really irks me is that edwina jane hoover feathered her cap with Garvey's demise.
my true ancestor (we always remembering what happen to our ancestors) And we are here for same Questions about being unite n freedom.
MARCUS!!
Loved him…
I am an European Nationalist/Identitarian, from Scandinavia. I respect this man and his strugle for his people and race. My wish is we can live in a multipolar world where all people and folks will live in freedom , in there own lands acording to their own way of life . Keep fighting for black independence
Jamaica is a powerful nation
Another case of us being our own enemy.
See how nigga hate there own.
I wish I could see a Africa build an infrastructure and not be a 3rd world continent there needs to be a replanting and conservation to regrow habitat and not hurt the land around
it was all you all along people wise up, You too!
