Celebrate the book launch of Justice for Marcus Garvey by Dr. Julius Garvey

Welcome to the book launch celebration of Justice for Marcus Garvey by Dr. Julius Garvey! Join us at Adanne Bookshop for an exciting event filled with discussions, book signings, and more. Let's come together to honor this important work and its impact on the legacy of Marcus Garvey.

Marcus Garvey (1887-1940) was a Black political activist, journalist, entrepreneur, and orator who founded the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League, which had a following of more than six million African descended people worldwide. Despite his massive popularity, this Jamaican born international leader was wrongfully sentenced to Pr*son by the U.S. government on trumped-up mail-fraud charges.

While exoneration efforts began immediately and have continued since his sentencing, a new groundswell movement for Garvey's posthumous pardon is underway--led by his nonagenarian, still-spirited son, Julius Garvey.

Edited by Julius Garvey, Justice for Marcus Garvey is a collection of informative essays and personal narratives about the senior Garvey's life and work, demonstrating his essential influence on current social justice movements. The book features contributions from thought leaders and activists, including a foreword by bestselling author Ta-Nehisi Coates. Contributors include Paul Coates, founder/director of Black Classic Press; Goulda Downer, president of the Caribbean-American Political Action Committee (C-PAC); Justin Hansford, professor at Howard University School of Law; and Maulana Karenga, widely known as the creator of the holiday Kwanzaa.

Justice for Marcus Garvey is a tribute and rallying cry for one of the preeminent champions of Black pride and self-determination.
