MGEA: Garvey - Our Way!

I'm blessed that my father has meant so much to our people and our development. Many have taken inspiration and courage from his words and deeds. Different groups, schools, organizations have clung to different parts of him. He was just that big!

He has spawned many movements to uplift our people. There will be more, many more - as he would have it.

As his youngest son, and now, an elder myself, I have a special perspective. I too have been inspired and instructed, and I have a special obligation to share the Garvey that flows through me that has allowed me to touch and be touched by many. I'm grateful.

MGEA aims to create an enduring educational legacy of our work.

Engage, enjoy, then go out and do Garvey!

Award-winning Surgeon and medical professor Dr. Julius W. Garvey was born on August 16, 1933 in Kingston, Jamaica to United Negro Improvement Association founder Marcus Garvey and activist Amy Jacques Garvey. The younger of two sons, Garvey was raised in Jamaica. He graduated from Wolmer's Trust High School for Boys in Kingston in 1950; and then earned his B.S. degree from McGill University in Montréal, Canada in 1957, and his M.D., C.M. degree from McGill University Faculty of Medicine in 1961.
