Apart from Garvey himself, the Negro World was helped in its efforts by a succession of some of the finest editors in Afro-America. W.A. Domingo was one of the first editors. Eventually he parted due to his socialist views. Then there was Hubert Harrison, a self-taught genius and highly respected member of Harlem's intellectual community. William H. Ferris, historian and graduate of Harvard and Yale, served three years as literary editor. John E. Bruce was contributing editor up to his death in 1924, as was Eric Walrond, a successful literary figure in the Harlem Renaissance.

But perhaps the most illustrious of the Negro World editors was T. Thomas Fortune, general acknowledged the dean of Afro-American journalists, who edited the paper from 1923 to his death in 1928. He dictated the last Negro World editorials from his sickbed during the last three weeks of his life. Dusé Mohamed Ali was also associated with the paper. In the last years after Fortune, this high editorial standard was maintained under Hucheswar G. Mudgal, an Indian who came to Harlem via Trinidad.

The Negro World penetrated every area where Black folk lived and had regular readers as far away as Australia. It was cited by colonial powers as a factor in uprisings and unrest in such diverse places as Dahomey, British Honduras, Kenya, Trinidad and Cuba. These powers therefore had no illusions concerning the appeal of its message of racial self-reliance and its anti-colonialist tone to oppressed Black people. During its entire existence, therefore, the paper was engaged in a running battle with the British, French, United States and other governments, all of which assiduously sought to engineer its demise, or failing that, to restrict or prevent its circulation, especially in Africa, Central America and the West Indies.
