Negro World

the newspaper of the Marcus Garvey's Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League (UNIA).

[6] Monthly, Negro World distributed more copies than The Messenger, The Crisis and Opportunity (other important African-American publications).

For a nickel, readers received a front-page editorial by Garvey, along with poetry and articles of international interest to people of African ancestry.

The paper was a focal point for publication on the arts and African-American culture, including poetry,[8] commentary on theatre and music, and regular book reviews.

Romeo Lionel Dougherty, a prominent figure of the Jazz Age, began writing for Negro World in 1922.
