William Wellington Wellwood Grant
William Wellington Wellwood Grant, born in 1894 in Jamaica, was a prominent labor rights activist who played a crucial role in the early struggle for workers' rights in Jamaica. Known for his fiery speeches alongside Alexander Bustamante, Grant advocated for the working class during a pivotal period in Jamaica's labor movement. Despite being overshadowed by Bustamante, Grant's contributions to the labor rights movement and his involvement with the Universal Negro Improvement Association showed his commitment to social justice. He was later appointed watchman at the Central Housing Authority, a position he held until his death in 1977, the same year Bustamante passed away.
