Additional Information Produced during his time while living in the United States, primarily Harlem, this photo of Marcus Garvey captures him in one of his most influential periods while he established numerous companies, including the Black Star shipping and passenger line, which facilitated the immigration of members of the African Diaspora back to the African continent, primarily to the country of Liberia. Garvey was also the founder of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League. Garvey's views, while politically polarizing at times, were widely influential on leaders of the American Civil Rights Movement during the 1950s, and his ideology included Black Americans returning to Africa and the decolonization of the continent by European countries, with Africa being ruled under a one-party state. Garvey is pictured here in an honorary military uniform as the "Provisional President of Africa" in 1923 during the opening day exercises of the annual Convention of the Negro Peoples of the World. Garvey was born in Jamaica in 1887 and immigrated to the United States in 1916, though he would later settle in London, where he would participate in lively debates regarding segregation and equality before his death in 1940. This photograph remains an enduring piece of history that depicts Garvey in a stature of grandeur. The period between World War I and World War II saw numerous movements advocating for racial segregation before the United States would enact legislation to create fully integrated spaces for Black Americans in public schools and reduce discrimination across the nation.
