Mr Biden posthumously pardoned civil rights leader and resident, Marcus Garvey.

Black activist Garvey and his wife Amy were regarded as one of the most significant human rights married couples of the 20th century.

They lived in the borough, at 57, Castletown Road in West Kensington.

A century ago, Garvey was convicted of the crime of mail fraud in the United States.

It’s an act now seen as having been politically motivated in an effort to silence the outspoken activist.

Following the conviction, Garvey was deported from America to Jamaica, his country of birth.

He then made his way to London, where the Castletown Road address eventually became his home from March 1928 to October 1929.
