American Experience | Marcus Garvey

American Experience | Marcus Garvey
"Negro producers, Negro distributors, Negro consumers! The world of Negroes can be self-contained. We desire earnestly to deal with the rest of the world, but if the rest of the world desire not, we seek not." -- Marcus Garvey, 1929
The Negro Factories Corporation was the finance arm of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. A cornerstone of Garvey's vision for black economic independence, the Negro Factories Corporation was created with the goal of supporting businesses that would employ African Americans and produce goods to be sold to black consumers. Garvey envisioned a string of black-owned factories, retailers, services and other businesses, and hoped that the corporation would eventually be strong enough to power and sustain an all-black economy with worldwide significance
