Black Man Listen by Kathy Casimir Maclean

A pioneering Pan Africanist, Garveyite and poet from the Caribbean island of Dominica, JR Ralph Casimir (1898-1996) played an important role as agent and organiser in the eastern Caribbean for Marcus Garvey's Universal Negro Improvement Association and the Black Star Line. For more than half a century, he fearlessly confronted not just colonial rule but his island’s elites. This biography, lovingly written by his grand-daughter, explores his political and personal life, and sheds much light on little known aspects of Dominica’s march to independence.
