Wonderful. Many Dixiecrats financed epm and other movement’s to “solve” the racial problem.
Could the Dixiecrats provide more financial support to the UNIA and other Fascist African-American parties for the Back-to-Africa movement in the 1930s? Speaking of EPM, they might also get covert support from the Japanese as well . . .Wonderful. Many Dixiecrats financed epm and other movement’s to “solve” the racial problem.
That was something that I was actually unsure about but it could gradually decline, depending on how successful TTL's Liberia might is - a Fascist Liberia might actually be better-off than IOTL's Liberia.Given the historical African-American population in the 1920s-1930s was about 9.9-9.7%, how much of the population would have likely moved to Liberia in this scenario over the next few decades for this repatriation program to be defined as a success?
WD Fard is better off being a shadowy figure, it is in essence confirmed he was not African American. Noble Drew Ali would likely be better, due to the fact prior to NOIs major emergence, they were the primary movement.I'm not sure about Nobel Drew Ali but I can see W.D. Fard joining the UNIA ITTL and even going to Liberia (maybe he converts to Ethiopian Orthodoxy after meeting an Ethiopian noble and the Nation of Islam instead becomes the Nation of Orthodoxy) while the Ethiopian Peace Movement plays an interesting role ITTL. Thanks to its contacts with the Japanese Black Dragon Society, the same Japanese Fascist literature that has spread to Ethiopia ends up reaching the upper echelons of the EPM who become a Fascist movement in all but name and joins the UNIA in promoting the Back-to-Africa movement during the 1930s which brings up something else - the possibility of the UNIA and other African-American Fascist organizations becoming particularly influential in Liberia. @Dan Yampton mentioned that Liberia might've eventually become organized along Fascist lines if Ethiopia avoids the Italian occupation - might happen in this timeline . . .
Most likely - was there a chance for Noble Drew Ali to have converted to Orthodox Christianity? I've contemplated having him convert to Egyptian Orthodoxy while in Egypt but I wasn't sure if it was plausible or not.WD Fard is better off being a shadowy figure, it is in essence confirmed he was not African American.
