The Marcus Garvey and Universal Negro Improvement Association Papers
Marcus Garvey (1887-1940), leader of the largest organized
mass movement in black history and the progenitor of the modern "black
is beautiful" ideal, was hailed in his own time as "a black Moses." This
mini-edition presents documents related to the early development and extraordinary
impact of Garvey's "African Redemption" movement.
