Garvey, Garveyism, and the Antinomies of Black Redemption

By C. Boyd James

Charts and analyses significant features of the legend of Marcus Mosiah Garvey and attempts to situate Garvey and Garveyism within the perspectives of his age. Professor James posits that from the 18th century onwards, several ideologies of black liberation and redemption were spawned in the geography of the Atlantic. James provides new insights into questions with which others have already grappled, thereby offering readers another opportunity to improve their understanding of the connection between human agents of history and their environment.
