EMBASSY EVENING SERIES
Marcus Garvey: Why Exoneration Matters
H. CON. RES. 24: Expressing the Sense of the Congress that the President should grant a Pardon to Marcus Mosiah...
Declares that Marcus Mosiah Garvey (founder of the National Negro Improvement Association): (1) was innocent of the charges brought against him by the U.S. government; and (2) should be recognized internationally as a leader and thinker in the struggle for human rights and dignity. Calls upon the President to endeavor to restore Garvey's honor and good name by granting him a full posthumous pardon that proclaims his conviction to have been unjust and affirms his innocence.
See You!
