First published in 2004. Marcus Garvey founded the Universal Negro
Improvement Association in 1914. He was one of the first black
leaders to encourage black people to discover their cultural
traditions and history, and to seek common cause in the struggle
for true liberty and political recognition. This book discusses his
philosophy and opinions.This series comprises reprints as well as
original works covering various aspects of African life- history,
institutions, culture, political and social thought, and eminent
African personalities. The reprints for the most part are landmarks
in African writing and each contains a new introduction placing the
author's life, ideas and activities in perspective. The documents
are selected and edited by scholars working in the particular
field. It is hoped that these documents will not only provide
scholars with source materials but also stimulate further research
on the topics with which they deal.

Originally published in two volumes between 1923 and 1925, Africa
for Africans: Or, The Philosophy and Opinions of Marcus Garvey is a
compilation of letters, speeches and essays by one of the Fathers
of Pan-Africanism. Hailed by Martin Luther King, Jr. as, "the first
man of color. . . to make the Negro feel like he was somebody,"
Marcus Garvey was a polarizing yet influential figure whose legacy
continues to be felt today. These philosophies, collected by Amy
Jacques Garvey, his second wife and a pioneering journalist,
chronicle Garvey's initial impressions and recollections of
America, the formation of the Universal Negro Improvement
Association (UNIA), his imprisonment and subsequent trial over the
Black Star Line, and his scathing opinions of the National
Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP).
Including such pieces as, "An Appeal to the Soul of White America,"
"The Negro's Greatest Enemy," and "Declaration of Rights of the
Negroes of the World," Africa for Africans; Or, The Philosophy and
Opinions of Marcus Garvey is an essential piece of Black history,
professionally typeset and reimagined for modern readers.
