Chapter 7 dives deep into one of the most chilling chapters in Caribbean history and Black history. As the UNIA emerged as a global force, governments and colonial powers — especially in the United States — took coordinated action to crush what they viewed as the most organized movement for Black sovereignty in modern times. Led by the Bureau of Investigation, later known as the FBI under J. Edgar Hoover, the campaign was a masterclass in covert sabotage.

Listeners will uncover the tactics used to dismantle Marcus Garvey’s empire — from infiltrating the UNIA with undercover agents to using propaganda, surveillance, and legal manipulation to destroy its credibility. The Black Star Line was relentlessly attacked, leaders were stalked, and meetings were infiltrated, all in a bid to erase the idea that Caribbean identity and cultural resilience could reshape the world.

This episode is more than just a history story — it’s a chilling reminder of how powerful movements that center Caribbean literature, Jamaican music, and diasporic unity are often met with calculated resistance. We explore why Garvey’s dream was so feared — and why resilience in the face of colonial oppression still echoes through Maroon communities and Caribbean stories today. Perfect for history experts, travel experts, and lovers of island vibes, this chapter will challenge how you view resistance, identity, and the fight for freedom in the Caribbean diaspora.

From jamaican music to travel experts' takes on global diaspora movement, we unpack how this bold experiment in Black capitalism united working-class Black people across borders.

In Chapter 5 of our Caribbean history podcast, we uncover the radical legacy of The Negro World — the UNIA’s powerful transatlantic newspaper that became much more than ink on paper. Launched in 1918, this multilingual publication in English, Spanish, and French became a lifeline for the Black diaspora — smuggled past colonial censors, read in whispers on plantations, docks, and in churches, and banned across more than a dozen territories.

In an era when Black voices were suppressed and African identity was erased from schools and headlines, The Negro World spoke truth with unapologetic fire. This chapter explores how the paper exposed injustice, preserved stolen history, and became a revolutionary tool for self-determination. With editorials on African sovereignty, women's rights columns, global Black news, and poetry that reignited pride, The Negro World wasn’t just a newspaper — it was resistance in print.

Join us as we journey through this bold story of cultural resilience, Maroon spirit, and the printed word that united the Caribbean diaspora.

From the disciplined ranks of the African Legion to the healing hands of the Black Cross Nurses, and the revolutionary words of The Negro World newspaper, this episode dives deep into the organizational brilliance that fueled the largest Black movement in history.

Their presence declared that Black women were not just nurturers — they were nation-builders.

The African Legion stood tall as protectors — not aggressors — reminding the world that a free people must be able to defend their future.
