A quote from Garvey “As the social relations
between black and white are impossible, and as the whites are too prejudiced against the black to treat him as an equal either socially, politically, or industrially, therefore the black man’s only hope of redemption is the creation of a distinct type of civilization in his motherland.”-Garvey, Marcus Mosiah, and Robert A. Hill. The Marcus Garvey and Universal Negro Improvement Association Papers. Berkeley (Calif.): University of California press, 2006. Print.
