Claudia Jones
Born in Trinidad and raised in Harlem, Claudia Jones became one of the twentieth century's boldest Black feminist thinkers and communist organizers, writing the landmark essay "An End to the Neglect of the Problems of the Negro Woman!" She was jailed and ultimately deported from the United States during the McCarthy era, arriving in Britain in 1955 where she founded the country's first major Black newspaper, The West Indian Gazette. In 1959, in response to racist violence against Caribbean migrants, she launched the indoor cabaret that grew into the Notting Hill Carnival, now Europe's largest street festival, and she is buried beside Karl Marx in Highgate Cemetery.
“A people's art is the genesis of their freedom.”
A Silver & Gold perk. Sharper portraits, ready for card-stock printing.
