Summary

Like all great dreamers and planners, Marcus Garvey dreamed and planned ahead of his time and his peoples' ability to understand the significance of his life's work.

A set of circumstances, mostly created by the world colonial powers, crushed this dreamer, but not his dreams. Due to persistence and years of sacrifice of Mrs. Amy Jacques Garvey, widow of Marcus Garvey, a large body of work by and about this great nationalist leader has been preserved and can be made available to a new generation of Black people who have the power to turn his dreams into realities.

Written as a participant and confidant, Amy Jacques Garvey's perspective continues to provide an intimate and first-person narrative of the Garvey movement and this important nascent period of black nationalism.

A Must Have In Your LIbrary

Excellent reading on Marcus Garvey and Amy Jacques life in the UNIA and Pan-African struggle. A must have those those interested in the greatest and biggest Black movement of the 20th century. I would have preferred a middle class Jamaican accent to capture Mrs Garvey's sentiments and emotions but it is still very well read.
