But in the 1920s and 1930s, racist nativism and a brutal cascade of antiblack immigration laws swept the hemisphere. Facing borders and barriers as never before, Afro-Caribbean migrants rethought allegiances of race, class, and empire. In Radical Moves, Lara Putnam takes readers from tin-roof tropical dancehalls to the elegant black-owned ballrooms of Jazz Age Harlem to trace the roots of the black-internationalist and anticolonial movements that would remake the twentieth century. From Trinidad to 136th Street, these were years of great dreams and righteous demands. Praying or "jazzing," writing letters to the editor or letters home, Caribbean men and women tried on new ideas about the collective. The popular culture of black internationalism they created--from Marcus Garvey's UNIA to "regge" dances, Rastafarianism, and Joe Louis's worldwide fandom--still echoes in the present."--Publisher's website. 650 0 $a Blacks $z West Indies, British $x History $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a West Indians $x History $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Blacks $x Social conditions $y 20th century. 650 0 $a West Indians $x Social conditions $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Blacks $x Politics and government $y 20th century. 650 0 $a West Indians $x Politics and government $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Anti-imperialist movements $x History $y 20th century. 651 0 $a West Indies, British $x History $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Emigration and immigration $x History $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Racism $x History $x History $y 20th century. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231019011607.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=C8D5838EE55311E7AFB0C42A97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
