Aprašymas

The first complete account of the life and work of Wilfred Adolphus Domingo (1889-1968), one of the most significant West Indian anti-colonialists of the twentieth century. When W. A. Domingo died in 1968, the Jamaican ex-premier Norman Manley wrote that 'no one in the world made greater sacrifices or suffered more for the cause he believed in--the cause of freedom for Jamaica and our escape from the bonds and fetters of British Imperialism.' Despite this claim, Domingo has remained a shadowy figure. This book brings him, at last, into the foreground of the anti-colonial struggle in the Caribbean. This book is a comprehensive exploration of Domingo's ideological tenets and political commitments at various stages in his life. Each section is prefaced by a substantial introduction and is followed by a selection of Domingo's writings, which include new biographical information that sheds light on Domingo's early years and his relationships with Marcus Garvey and the Communist movement.
