So cool to be sitting here in Jamaica reading about Marcus Garvey’s Black Nationalism and Pan-Africanism (which found their way into the Rastafarian faith) and about Claude McKay who traveled to the Soviet Union in 1922 and articulated a revisionist approach to Marxism by focusing on race and slavery. Both men were born in Jamaica. Robin D. G. Kelley’s book “Freedom Dreams: The Black Radical Imagination” is eye-opening, encyclopedic in its scope, fascinating.
