Rupert Lewis traces how Garvey?s Jamaican formation shaped his life and thought and how he combated the British colonial authorities as well as fought deep-rooted self-doubt and self-rejection among Jamaican black people. Garvey?s much neglected political and cultural work at the local level is discussed as part of his project to stimulate self-determination in Africa and its diaspora
