Marcus Garvey Biography clip

Marcus Garvey actual recording 1921
Early years

Garvey was born on August 17,1887 at 32 Market Street in Saint Ann's Bay, Saint Ann Parish, Jamaica to Marcus Mosiah Garvey, Sr., a mason, and Sarah Jane Richards, a domestic worker and farmer. Of eleven siblings, only Marcus and his sister Indiana reached maturity.[4] Garvey's father was known to have a large library, and it was from his father that Marcus gained his love for reading.[2][5] Sometime in the year 1900, Garvey entered into an apprenticeship with his uncle, Alfred Burrowes. Like Garvey Sr, Mr. Burrowes had an extensive library, of which young Garvey made good use.[6][7] When he was about fourteen, Garvey left Saint Ann's Bay for Kingston, where he found employment as a compositor in the printery of P.A. Benjamin Limited. He was a master printer and foreman at Benjamin when, in November 1907, he was elected vice-president of the Kingston Union. However, he was fired when he joined a strike by printers in late 1908. Having been blacklisted for his stance in the strike, he later found work at the Government Printing Office. In 1909, his newspaper The Watchman began publication, but it only lasted for three issues.
In 1910, Garvey left Jamaica and began traveling throughout the Central American region. He lived in Costa Rica for several months, where he worked as a time-keeper on a banana plantation. He began work as editor for a daily newspaper entitled 'La Nacionale' in 1911. Later that year, he moved to Colón, Panama, where he edited a tri-weekly newspaper before returning to Jamaica in 1912.
After years of working in the Caribbean, Garvey left Jamaica to live in London from 1912 to 1914, where he attended Birkbeck College, worked for the African Times and Orient Review, published by Dusé Mohamed Ali, and sometimes spoke at Hyde Park's Speakers' Corner.

yes, but actually there is much more to marcus garvey then simply 'back to africa'

essentially garveyite platform is this:

1) Industrial development for the disenfranchised to a level of self-sustainability

2) The Inevitable Failures of the Solving the Current Problems by Using the Methods Offerred from the Same System Which Causes/ed The Problem and Continues to Enable the Problem. You Must Start Something New...

3) One God, One Aim, One Destiny. This is above all else a religious movement, and the millions of who followed Garvey then and now do so in a religious regard.

Marcus Garvey left a lot of speechs and writings. His newspaper editorials were smuggled into colonial Africa in places like Kenya and Ghana and read aloud to masses of rural Africans, people were entrusted to memorize the texts to transmitt them further, Garvey's work was the first to organize the disenfranchised masses in Central and South America and in Colonial Africa. For this He is truly a hero, and many remember him so. Had it not been for His Honorable Marcus Mosiah Garvey, Africa and the 'west Indies' alike might remain under the yolk of the Union Jack, and Central America would be still be virtual slaves to the fruit giants.. Garvey sparked hope into the world, and the momentum has never been stopped. All of the revolutionary zeal of the twentieth century, particularly in the western hemisphere and in Africa is in relation in one way or another to Marcus Mosiah Garvey.

His Greatness as a Hero of the People has its Roots in redirecting Anger towards Parental Units for Naming him the Name Marcus.
