Garveyism is considered a popular movement because it resonated deeply with the aspirations of the African diaspora for self-determination, racial pride, and economic independence during the early 20th century. Founded by Marcus Garvey, it advocated for black nationalism and the establishment of a separate nation for African Americans in Africa, which appealed to many who were disillusioned by systemic racism and inequality. The movement's emphasis on cultural identity, unity, and empowerment galvanized a wide following across the globe, making it a significant force in the fight for civil rights and social justice. Its legacy continues to inspire contemporary movements advocating for racial equality and empowerment.
That was the Temperance movement, popular around the last turn of the century.
Marcus Garvey (1887-1940) was born in Jamaica and travelled widely examining the status of blacks in Europe and America. He decided that they could only achieve parity with whites by uniting under their African heritage. He was a major leader in the Pan-African Movement, and also supported the continued colonization of Liberia in Africa. His movement of "African Redemption" became known as Garveyism, and was one basis for the Rastafari religious movement, where he is revered as a prophet. hope it helped :)
