W.E.B. Du Bois called Marcus Garvey "the most dangerous enemy of the Negro race in America" because Garvey's views promoted racial separation. Garvey advocated for the "Back to Africa" movement and the creation of a separate black nation, which Du Bois believed would undermine the progress made by African Americans in America. Du Bois, on the other hand, believed in the importance of integration and fought for equal rights and opportunities for African Americans within American society. Therefore, Garvey's promotion of racial separation was seen as a threat to Du Bois' vision of racial unity and progress in America.
