Big People Tings: Walter Rodney

Strictly Facts: A Guide to Caribbean History and Culture

"Big People Tings" is a new continuing series where we highlight an individual Caribbean changemaker and discuss their contributions to our history and future. For our first episode of the series, we discuss Guyanese-born public intellectual and Pan-Africanist Dr. Walter Rodney (1942-1980) who played an integral role in the Black Power movement in the Caribbean and helped found the Working People's Alliance, a Guyanese political party for working class' rights, in the 1970s.
