Description: Newark, London House Records for the Vanguard Local UNIA-ACL. Unbound. Newark, NJ: no date, 1960s. 45 rpm record in plain white sleeve. A recording of two speeches by Marcus Garvey, originally given in 1921, and issued on a 78 rpm record around the same time. These speeches outline his ideas on the United Negro Improvement Association, which he founded, and the pan-African movement, which he was a leading proponent of. Born in Jamaica, Garvey moved to the US in 1916, and toured the country lecturing on his ideas and the UNIA. Hoping to promote economic independence within the Black community, he worked to start several businesses, but was eventually charged and convicted of mail fraud. Often considered a Black nationalist, his views influenced many subsequent Black leaders. VERY GOOD condition. Record a bit dusty. Not play tested. Very Good .
