100 years ago, renowned activist, leader & teacher Marcus Garvey, visited the UK for the first of many visits.

To commemorate the remarkable occasion and in time to participate with October's 'Black History month' celebrations, RMT BEM have helped commission a brochure, detailing the background and achievements of this legendary character's life.

This brochure will provide a great insight behind Marcus Garvey's motivations, leading many of his teachings to be often repeated and quoted today.

Please get in contact with any of your Local BEM committee officers
