Often referred to in British circles as the Trinidad representative in the Houseof Commons because of the frequent questions he raised on matters relating toaffairs in that colony, Grenadian-born Dr Hyacinth B. Morgan was an importantfigure in furthering West Indian interests from 1916 to his death in 1956.In both the House of Commons as well as in the British Medical Association,he worked tirelessly on behalf of the British Caribbean at a time when calls fordecolonization were gaining traction in England. Because of the close relationshiphe maintained with a number of British Caribbean politicians like A.A.Cipriani of Trinidad and T.A. Marryshow of Grenada, this examination of hisactivities in London casts considerable light on his efforts on behalf of BritishWest Indian political, social, and economic improvement in the first half of thetwentieth century.
