"In September 1937, three years before his death, Marcus Garvey, one of the most controversial figures in the history of race relations, assembled his most trusted organizers, from his Universal Negro Improvement Association, at its peak the largest international mass movement in the history of African peoples. He was looking to pass on the life lessons he had learned. For one month he instructed this elite student body, twelve hours a day, seven days a week, on twenty-two lessons with topics ranging from universal knowledge and how to get it, to leadership, character, God, and the social system. Garvey's lessons were known as the Course of African Philosophy and offer a fascinating distillation of a great leader's wisdom"-- Provided by publisher.
