Through speeches, writings, and reflections, this book explores Garvey’s dream of a united, empowered Africa and a global Black identity rooted in pride, purpose, and liberation.At a time when colonial rule dominated the continent and racial oppression plagued the diaspora, Garvey dared to speak of sovereignty, of going back to Africa—not just physically, but mentally, economically, and spiritually.In this episode, we unpack Garvey’s legacy—his principles of Black nationalism, economic empowerment, and cultural pride—and ask: what can we still learn from his vision today?Get ready to be inspired by the fire of a man who said,“A people without the knowledge of their past history, origin and culture is like a tree without roots.”Let’s explore Marcus Garvey and the Vision for Africa.To buy the book click this link.
