The Blackman, was largely written
by Garvey himself. The lead article in this issue is a rather harsh critique of W.E.B. Du Bois.
Other articles include an obituary for William Monroe Trotter, “The Challenge” extolling the
Japanese who like their German counterpart were spreading their influence geographically in a
prelude to WWII; Centenary of Negro Emancipation, marking Emancipation in the West
Indies. The remaining eight articles were all written by Garvey: Negro Psychology, The Negro
Race, The West Indian Negro, etc.
