Read the following excerpt from a statement outlining the goals of the Second Pan-African Congress (1921), organized by W.E.B. Du Bois:
'The absolute equality of races—physical, political and social—is the first step for writing the world's peace... [We seek] the establishment of international institutions to oversee the administration of colonial territories, ensuring that the voice of native peoples is heard and that their progress toward self-government is steadily advanced.'
Based on the excerpt and your knowledge of early twentieth-century Black movements, which of the following best describes how the ideology of Marcus Garvey and the Universal Negro Improvement Association (UNIA) differed from the approach of the Pan-African Congress?
- ABoth movements shared the same organizational structure and relied on a small group of highly educated African American intellectuals to lobby Western governments for domestic integration.
- BBoth movements rejected the pursuit of civil rights in the Americas and demanded that all members of the African diaspora immediately emigrate to West Africa.
- Garveyism was a mass populist movement that prioritized economic self-reliance and the establishment of a sovereign African nation, while the Pan-African Congress relied on elite diplomacy to lobby colonial powers for gradual political reforms.Cevap
- DBoth movements sought to unify the African diaspora by replacing the diverse indigenous cultures and languages of Africa with a single, standardized culture and religion.
Cevap
Garveyism was a mass populist movement that prioritized economic self-reliance and the establishment of a sovereign African nation, while the Pan-African Congress relied on elite diplomacy to lobby colonial powers for gradual political reforms.
The correct answer is correct because Marcus Garvey's Universal Negro Improvement Association (UNIA) was a mass-membership populist organization focused on global Black economic independence (such as the Black Star Line) and establishing a sovereign homeland in Africa. Conversely, the Pan-African Congresses organized by W.E.B. Du Bois were composed of elite intellectuals who engaged in diplomatic lobbying and sought to reform colonial systems from within.
