"ALWAYS LEADING OUR MEN IN SERVICE AND SACRIFICE":

Amy Jacques Garvey, Feminist Black Nationalist

Brandeis University

This article focuses on the most important woman in Garveyism: Amy Jacques Garvey, Marcus Garvey's second wife. Amy Jacques Garvey's true value in the Garvey movement has rarely been acknowledged; most authors and scholars have misleadingly depicted her as Marcus's "helpmate." This article proposes that Amy Jacques Garvey was a key architect of Garveyism and a lifelong advocate of social justice in her own right. The author also examines the relationship among race, class, and gender as it pertains to Amy Jacques Garvey's life and social thought.
