Description: What if the largest Black movement the world has ever seen… was one they never taught you about? This 10-chapter cinematic audiobook dives deep into the untold story of the UNIA — the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Founded in the early 1900s, the UNIA wasn’t just a movement; it was a global government-in-exile. With its own flag, shipping company, constitution, hospitals, media, and military-style legions, it unified over 6 million Black people across more than 40 countries — decades before civil rights movements ever reached headlines. This series explores everything: The rise and global structure of the UNIA The women who held the movement together The creation and sabotage of the Black Star Line FBI infiltration and legal persecution The UNIA’s spread across Africa, the Caribbean, and the Americas And its living legacy in today’s Pan-African movements From Harlem to Ghana, from Panama to Jamaica — the UNIA planted a vision so powerful, it couldn’t be buried, only reborn. This isn’t just Black history. It’s a revolutionary blueprint. Still alive. Still echoing. Still dangerous to those who fear a united Black world.
