520    "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"--|cProvided by publisher
