John Hoffman Grant, Otis B. "Social Justice versus Social Equality: The Capitalistic Jurisprudence of Marcus Garvey." Journal of Black Studies 33 (2003): 49098. JSTOR. Glenbrook South IMC, Glenview. 1 May 2009 . The Invisible Man contains many interactions between divergent theories of race and oppression. Ras the Exhorter (a.k.a. Ras the Destroyer) appears to roughly parallel qualities of Marcus Garvey, such as their shared West Indian heritage and their violent, separatist ideals. Although Ras might not perfectly fit the identity of Marcus Garvey, it is important to understand what Garvey’s ideals were and why they resonated so well with the Harlem population. On page 367, Brother Tod Clifton exclaims “[Garvey] must have had something to move all those people. Our people are hell to move.” Otis Grant’s article gives an in depth analysis of Garvey’s rationale, as well as detailed biographical information to better understand his motives and why his techniques so successfully resonated with his audience. The article intimately weaves together multiple sources, authors and points of view to both verify Grant’s contentions about Garvey and to extend the reader’s understanding of Garvey past Grant’s own point of view.
