In 1991, “Queen Mother” Audley Moore sat down for one of her last and most lengthy interviews about her seventy-year organizing career in the global struggle for black liberation. The brilliant and charismatic activist, intellectual, and world traveler was a legendary figure in twentieth-century black nationalism, Pan-Africanism, and Communism who devoted special attention to fighting for the rights and dignity of black women. Born in 1898 outside of New Orleans and coming of age in black working-class communities under Jim Crow, she was critical to forging the modern radical black freedom struggle) including the Black Power and Reparations movements. Throughout the conversation, Moore spoke about the range of movements and ideas— including Marcus Garvey’s Universal Negro Improvement Association (UNIA), the Communist Party, grassroots protests, and African liberation struggles—that she participated in throughout her life. Indeed, Moore’s political journey caused her to be one of the foremost advocates of antiracist, anticapitalist, diasporic politics that shaped the black freedom movement in the second half of the twentieth century.1 As the interview came to a close, Moore offered her recommendations for scholars of the black experience. For Moore, education, self-knowledge, and the study of history were key tools for realizing black liberation on a global scale. Categorically rejecting white supremacy, she called on black scholars to interrogate the intellectual traditions in which they worked. She advised black academics to “take stock” of the advantages and disadvantages of existing scholarly frameworks of the study of African-descended people and to use

Audley “Queen Mother” Moore had fond memories of Marcus Garvey, the charismatic black nationalist leader of the Universal Negro Improvement Association (UNIA), the largest and most influential global black nationalist movement of the twentieth century.2 Recounting a story in a 1973 interview with the Black Scholar, Moore vividly describes the first time she heard Garvey speak in New Orleans, Louisiana in 1920:

Marcus Garvey, the Jamaican black nationalist leader of the Universal Negro Improvement Association (UNIA), has remained an important figure in both popular culture and academic scholarship. Adam Ewing’s The Age of Garvey: How a Jamaican Activist Created a Mass Movement and Changed Global Black Politics is among the newest additions to this scholarship. While most scholars focus on the 1910s, the height of Garveyism, Ewing shifts the temporal frame and argues that Garveyism entered a second period—the Age of Garvey—in the 1920s and 1930s, serving as a vehicle for diasporic politics to emerge across the African diaspora.

Eloise Moore was excited. She bolted into the Harlem apartment of her sister who later became known as “Queen Mother” Audley Moore.1 Looking back decades later, she recalled that her sister exclaimed, “‘Harlem is ablaze.’ And I said, ‘What do you mean, ablaze?’” She said, “‘A parade. There’s a big parade, there are thousands of people there for the freedom of the Scottsboro boys.’”2 Queen Mother Moore described a massive protest in Harlem in the early 1930s in support of the “The Scottsboro Boys.” They were nine African American young men aged twelve to twenty-one who in March 1931 were falsely accused of raping two white women aboard a freight train in route from Chattanooga to Memphis. Authorities apprehended the youth near Scottsboro, Alabama. Once there, they were tried by an all-white, Jim Crow court. Eight of the young men were sentenced to death. In response, the Communist Party USA (CPUSA) organized a worldwide amnesty movement demanding the freedom of the young men during the height of the Great Depression. Under the leadership of the Communist Party, the Scottsboro case came to symbolize Jim Crow, lynching, imperialism, poverty, and racial oppression on a global scale. Due to the efforts of Communists and their allies, the Scottsboro youth were spared the death penalty.3 Audley Moore apparently had never taken part in a Scottsboro action prior to Eloise Moore’s appeal.4 In response to her sister’s urging, Audley Moore
