Marcus Garvey didn’t just talk about freedom—he built the blueprint for Black liberation. In this episode of The Black History Buff Podcast, we explore the remarkable journey of the Jamaican-born visionary who became the face of Pan-African pride and self-reliance.
Learn how Garvey founded the Universal Negro Improvement Association, launched the Black Star Line, and inspired a global movement long before hashtags and viral videos. From FBI takedowns to fiery speeches in Harlem, Garvey’s story is a powerful reminder that dreaming big is only the beginning.
If you’ve ever wondered where today’s calls for Black unity, empowerment, and repatriation began—this is the story.

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
