Reseña del libro

Dr Donna E. McFarlane Curator and Director of the Marcus MosiahGarvey Multimedia Museum (2003-2017) carefully reconstructs the historyof Jamaica's museums, and the world of new museum studies centered onJamaica's First National Hero life's work and philosophy. The timelessness ofGarvey and The Universal Negro Improvement (UNIA) is examined throughexhibitions, library holdings, local community activities and 21stcentury museum technology housed in the historical and renovated Liberty Hall.Through the energetic and gifted abilities of Dr McFarlane, Representing Blackness provides the ideological framework as to why thereis value of these kinds of programs in museum settings. Further, McFarlaneis adamant that Garvey must be included in curriculum resources forall Jamaican schools. Garvey's philosophy and opinions inspire, excite, and positively affect the self-identity of Jamaican people, while creatingsocial and economic wealth. Representing Blackness rich in analysis andimagery shows Liberty Hall as the cultural and educational institutionthat is a living monument to Marcus Mosiah Garvey.
