Did Marcus Garvey start a cult or was it simply the most impactful organization fueling movements for decades to come? Yet another tremendously impactful historical figure we didn’t learn about in school who would have been instrumental in putting together the pieces of the rest of the civil rights movement we were taught. Controversial? Yes. Perfect leadership style? Not quite. This month Donna & Jonathan are eyes wide open exploring the document, The Story of Marcus Garvey, to bring full circle the impact Garvey’s radical ways of thinking and leading have impacted the world of today. You know what would’ve helped us to connect the dots sooner? We’ll let you take a wild guess.
