Jamaican activist Marcus Garvey (1887 1940) organized the Universal Negro Improvement Association in Harlem in 1917. By the early 1920s, his program of African liberation and racial uplift had attracted millions of supporters, both in the United States and abroad. "The Age of Garvey" presents an expansive global history of the movement that came to be known as Garveyism. Offering a groundbreaking new interpretation of global black politics between the First and Second World Wars, Adam Ewing charts Garveyism s emergence, its remarkable global transmission, and its influence in the responses among African descendants to white supremacy and colonial rule in Africa, the Caribbean, and the United States.
Delving into the organizing work and political approach of Garvey and his followers, Ewing shows that Garveyism emerged from a rich tradition of pan-African politics that had established, by the First World War, lines of communication among black intellectuals on both sides of the Atlantic. Garvey s legacy was to reengineer this tradition as a vibrant and multifaceted mass politics. Ewing looks at the people who enabled Garveyism s global spread, including labor activists in the Caribbean and Central America, community organizers in the urban and rural United States, millennial religious revivalists in central and southern Africa, welfare associations and independent church activists in Malawi and Zambia, and an emerging generation of Kikuyu leadership in central Kenya. Moving away from the images of quixotic business schemes and repatriation efforts, "The Age of Garvey" demonstrates the consequences of Garveyism s international presence and provides a dynamic and unified framework for understanding the movement, during the interwar years and beyond."

Описание: This biography of Marcus Garvey documents the forging of his remarkable vision of pan-Africanism and highlights his organizational skills in framing a response to the radical global popular upsurge following the First World War (1914–1918). Central to Garvey's response was the development of organizations under the umbrella of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League, which garnered the transnational support of several million members and sympathizers and challenged white supremacist practices and ideas. Garvey established the ideological pillars of twentieth century pan-Africanism in promoting self-determination and self-reliance for Africa's independence. Although Garvey travelled widely and lived abroad in New York and London, he spent his early years in Jamaica. Rupert Lewis traces how Garvey's Jamaican formation shaped his life and thought and how he combated the British colonial authorities as well as fought deep-rooted self-doubt and self-rejection among Jamaican black people. Garvey's much neglected political and cultural work at the local level is discussed as part of his project to stimulate self-determination in Africa and its diaspora.

Описание:
When he published its third edition from London, Garvey described The Tragedy of White Injustice in these terms: "It must be remembered that this is not an attempt at poetry: it is just a peculiar style of using facts as they impress me as I go through the pages of history and as I look at and note the conduct of the white race." Garvey wrote this "epic poem" while in an Atlanta prison. Its first and second editions were published while he was serving a five-year sentence "as the result of the white man's prejudice in America." According to him, at the time of publishing the third edition, thousands of copies had already been circulated all over the world. In this foreword to the third edition, Garvey indicated that Mussolini's "savage like" efforts to "conquer Abyssinia" inspired its publication.

Описание: Many Beaucoup Magics is unusual on many levels. It's The Red Badge of Courage of The American War in Vietnam. It's actually a memoir presented as a novella written in the third person. It is real. A true story and not merely "based on a true story," Here is it's Kirkus Review. Kirkus is the oldest, largest and most prestigious reviewer of books in America and arguably, the world. "Debut novelist Garvey, a Vietnam veteran, focuses on one man, Lt. John McManus, in a tale based on a true story. McManus grows up with his uncle's war stories and years later, in 1965, he impulsively joins the Army. In his last weekend stateside, he chances upon a book by astrologer Sydney Omarr. A random opening of the text gives him a page on "August The 17th" and he becomes hooked by the carefully ambiguous entry, which says that the day calls for, among other things, "an interrogated act of courage, and that he would have to pass some cosmic test." ( this conceit may sound hokey, but readers will find that Garvey manages to pull it off.) The 17th of August, as a concept, "crawled inside his head, made a nest, and fouled it." The story then marches inexorably to its fiery climax, when McManus' men find themselves camped on the Cambodian Border outnumbered by perhaps 20-to-1. His outfit is composed of Montagnards - fierce, and fiercely independent, mountain people whom McManus comes to respect deeply and even love. They, like him, are avid believers in dreams as omens, which fosters a very strong bond between the young lieutenant and his grunts. Garvey does a good job of building suspense - one can almost see the calendar pages flip by - as August 17th, 1968 looms, the exact day when the North Vietnamese military plans to launch a massive assault. McManus, as Garvey portrays him, is far from gung-ho; in fact, he's very ambivalent about the war and very terrified most of the time, but he has a job to do, and he does it honorably. The climax is a scene which begs for the big screen treatment. Overall, Garvey writes tightly and economically with hardly a wasted word, when so many Vietnam books tend to scrawl. And at the end, he includes a poem which does credible homage to Alfred, Lord Tennyson's "Ulysses." A slightly different kind of Vietnam take by a gifted writer. "Jim Morris, with solid Special Forces "chops" four purple hearts, three tours, blown out of country twice, reviewed over 1500 manuscripts for a publisher in New York, stated Many Beaucoup Magics is "One of the finest novels of the Vietnam War."
