Marcus Garvey to Pope Pius XI

New York, 3 August 1924

Will Your Holiness please accept the greetings and best wishes of the Negro peoples of the world as expressed through their delegates and representatives attending the Fourth Annual International Convention of the race now assembled in New York.

We pray that your vision of the future be so clear as to enable you to use your influence on a wounded world to treat decently and fairly, politically, socially, industrially and religiously the 400,000,000 members of our race scattered throughout Africa, Europe, Asia and the Americas.

Fourth Annual International Convention of Negro Peoples of the World
