From her beginnings in a colonial Caribbean world shaped by British rule, to her formative years navigating racism in Depression-era Harlem, to her rise in the American Communist Party and ultimate deportation during the Red Scare, Claudia never stopped fighting. Her exile led her to London, where she founded The West Indian Gazette and planted the seeds of the Notting Hill Carnival, creating cultural joy in the face of racial violence.
