"Depending on the slavery" is a collection of world-views of the famous poet, Claude McKay, and the world-famous Afro-Caribbean socialist Michael Manley. Both men, although by differentGenerations, for their commitment to social change known as it relates to the exploitation of peoples of African descent in the Western Hemisphere. Claude McKay's poetry was one of the great forces of what is often called the Negro Literary Renaissance bring.

In a period of almost four centuries around four million Africans to North America and the Caribbean such as the results of the slave trade were transported. Sparse, scattered and separated from theirFamily and culture, these people persevered, maintaining their traditions, religion, language and traditions. Lloyd McCarthy, this book focuses primarily on the Jamaican perspective is relevant to the political, economic and social conditions in the world. I found the poetry of Claude McKay stimulating and enlightening the African Diaspora and the plight of these exploited peoples.

McCarthy successfully demonstrated the impact that impulse and corrective actionTactics are under consideration and that the focus of the struggle against white racism, classicism and Western imperialism. McCarthy gives the reader a definitive collection of the writings of Claude McKay and Michael Manley. He analyzes their works with items from dozens of authors and their interpretations of the ideological confrontation and policy gaps in Africa Diaspora relations. His research is complete and thorough documented with endnotes.

McCarthy is also an Afro-Jamaicanand the influence of his personal history and heritage instills in his letter. He reveals his empathy for the farmers and the prospects of the working class and the political perspectives, McKay and Manley expressed.

This work is an important contribution to the study of African Diaspora as it to globalization, policy planning and international relations with countries in developing and impoverished concerns. McCarthy also has valuable information, such as literature, biographical narrative,and intellectual history are intertwined with politics. The book is a wake up call for the peoples and nations of the African Diaspora to globalization find common solutions to survive.

"Depending on the bondage," promises the manual or the model for the liberation movement and should become of our politicians in Washington, and read all Africans in the New World.
