Brother Norman Manley as he appears on the Jamaican $5 dollar bill.




 
 


Brother Norman Manley was founder of the International Peoples Party of Jamaica. At the Thirty-first General Convention, 1945, held in Chicago, Illinois he gave a speech entitled, "To Unite in a Common Battle." Brother Manley spoke mainly on the plight of the people of the world as the result of war and peace. He said the dawn of peace made us face three significant problems---first, the balance of power had passed from Western Europe; second, the organized and developed power of labor; and third, the enlightenment of the peoples who had hitherto been denied rights and privileges. He closed his address with, "If you want respect, you must demand it, and if you demand it, you must fight for it." Manley is on the Jamaican $5 dollar bill.
