Description
Tony Martin, Amy Ashwood Garvey: Pan-Africanist, Feminist, and Mrs. Marcus Garvey No. 1; Or, A Tale of Two Amys (Dover, Massachusetts: The Majority Press, Inc., 2007) 446 pages (including appendices, index, and bibliography) Marcus Garvey has been dead since 1940 and Amy Ashwood Garvey died May 3, 1969 in Jamaica. A great deal is known about Marcus Garvey among scholars, less so among the larger population, but few people know about Amy Ashwood Garvey. Her marriage to Garvey in 1919 lasted approximately two months, and even though she remained a public figure until her death, that public varied from the United States, to Panama, to Barbados, to Suriname, to Liberia, to Ghana, to Great Britain and other places. Seen and heard in a great many places during her life, Amy Ashwood Garvey was unable to establish a truly distinguishing legacy such as a book or a truly transformative idea or ideology as her husband did. The mention of her name in the United States, and even places where she lectured years ago, would prompt a bewildered look. That scholars have found it difficult to put together a focused, comprehensive view of her life is exacerbated by the greater historical presence of the second wife, Amy Jacques Garvey.
