Publisher Description
Introduction Doing doctoral research on the history of Jamaican popular music in the twentieth century, I study the life of singers, producers and other protagonists of that story. Thus, I recently took an interest in the life and theories of Marcus Garvey who has been perceived as a true prophet by most Rastafarians since the beginning of the Rasta movement in the early 1930's. For a great many people, especially in the Caribbean, Garvey is often depicted as the father of Pan-Africanism, a political doctrine and movement designed to unify and uplift African nations and the African Diaspora as a universal African community.
