		George Odlum was one of St Lucia's and the Caribbean's most vocal and committed proponent of genuine people's empowerment.
		The image of George Odlum leaving the confines of officialdom to ground with the protestors at Seattle will forever be a telling demonstration of where he stood in relation to the people.
		It must be noted that George Odlum won elections only when he was aligned to one of the tribes-this is the nature of our politics; principle, policies and vision mean little when the battle for state power kicks in.

		George Padmore, né Nurse, was chosen to head the new Comintern racial department.
		Padmore operated with a staff of several hundred, with experts on every phase of Negro and colonial life.
		Padmore tells a story to illustrate this "Russian penchant for political and racial organization." One day, he said, he was in his office conferring with an African recruit, Albert Nzula, known as "Comrade Jackson." Nzula developed into one of the ablest Marxists in the Comintern--but, oddly, died drunk in Moscow, so say the reports.

		George Arthur Padmore's book, The Memoirs of a Liberian Ambassador, George Arthur Padmore (Edwin Mellen Press, 1996), seeks to accomplish such an objective.
		Numerous examples of attempts by Liberians to tell their story of their country could be cited, but those stories deal with a few political and economic situations in the country.
		Ambassador Padmore ably describes their styles and personalities, but does not provide a context as to what shaped them or what goals each of their presidency set out to accomplish.

		It is to George Walter's eternal credit, that even when battling political imprisonment, from 1976, he did not, never once, turn against the independence he himself had proposed for Antigua and Barbuda in 1976.
		The point is, George Walter, as a vehicle for his own political salvation could easily have adopted the position that for Antigua and Barbuda to gain independence, it had to have a referendum, as prescribed by the Constitution and there would have to be a clear two-thirds majority voting for independence.
		That is, that the most prominent personages in the field, the Cuban, Fernando Ortiz; the Martiniquan, Frantz Fanon; the Jamaican, Marcus Garvey; and the Trinidadians, George Padmore and C.L.R. James; the Guyanese Walter Rodney and Ivan Van Sertima; all stand tall, where not tallest, among figures and scholars of the 20th century.
