GEORGE PADMORE played a central role in developing and building transnational African liberation communities of resistance.
Born Malcolm Nurse in Trinidad in June 1903, he changed his name, as did many (particularly communist) activists of the time, as cover from identification while involved in clandestine activities.
As a university activist student in the United States in the 1920s, Padmore joined the Communist Party and quickly rose in its ranks.
Padmore became one of the leading African activists within the Communist International — known as the Comintern.
