#POTUS #Biden #pardoned 5 #activists & #PublicServants on Sunday, including a posthumous grant of #clemency to the #CivilRights leader #MarcusGarvey, who mobilized the #Black nationalist movement & was convicted of mail fraud in 1923.
Garvey’s posthumous pardon is among the most high profile in the latest round. #CivilRights leaders & lawmakers have long called his criminal conviction unjust & argued that he was targeted for his civil rights leadership.
