The first biography and collected writings of one of the leading West Indian anti-colonialists of the twentieth century

W. A. Domingo (1889-1968) was one of the leading West Indian anti-colonialists of the twentieth century. Born and raised in Jamaica, he moved to the USA in 1910. A Jamaican nationalist, socialist, and committed internationalist, he was part of an influential community of West Indian radicals active in Harlem's New Negro movement in the early 20th century. In 1936 he co-founded the Jamaica Progressive League, which called for Jamaican self-government. He then helped shape the People's National Party in Jamaica before being imprisoned by the colonial authorities on the island during World War II. He was present at Jamaica's independence ceremonies in August 1962.
