Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Despite the world in the 1920s experiencing Pan-Africanism, which caused the Harlem Renaissance in the US to thrive, Marcus Garvey who championed African American ethnic identity and the “Back to Africa movement”, was highly criticized even by intellectual African Americans. W. E. B. Du Bois especially continued to argue against Garvey, after who replaced his former opponent, Booker T. Washington. On the other hand, the other rest of the writers of the Renaissance almost completely ignored Garvey. Garvey, after all, was nearly assassinated, convicted of a charge of mail fraud and finally deported to his native country, Jamaica. That was because of his ideas: Racial Separatism in America, and constructing his nation in Liberia with rich natural resources. These were regarded as a threat by the US government, and as a result raised the writers’ concerns about displeasing their white patronesses and undermined Du Bois’ claim of the “Talented Tenth”.
