Tony Martin

    Tony Martin était un professeur d'études africaines au Wellesley College dont le travail a suscité une controverse considérable. Ses recherches ont exploré les affirmations selon lesquelles la philosophie grecque aurait plagié des sources africaines et ont examiné la participation juive dans la traite des esclaves américaine. Ces sujets ont déclenché un débat important et ont attiré la condamnation de la faculté de Wellesley, qui a jugé ses écrits stéréotypés racialement et antisémites. Le livre le plus connu de Martin est né d'un incident sur le campus qui a dégénéré en un discours public sur la liberté d'expression et la liberté académique.

      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," Garvey was a polarizing yet influential figure whose legacy continues to be felt today. These philosophies, collected by his second wife and pioneering journalist, Amy Jacques Garvey, chronicle Garvey's initial impressions and recollections of America, the formation of the Universal Negro Improvement Association (U.N.I.A.), his imprisonment and subsequent trial over the Black Star Line, and his scathing opinions of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (N.A.A.C.P.) 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.
