Claude McKay (1889-1948) endures among the great of African Diaspora (Jamaica/United States). Wrote poetry and novels central to the Harlem Renaissance literary movement. Across the modern age, this life and its works passed into the shared inheritance of humankind — kept here so the memory is never lost. Honored among the Great Ones of every civilization. Africa is the cradle of humankind; in the deepest sense, these are everyone’s ancestors — and so this name is kept, from the cradle of humanity to all its children.
