Answer:

Maurice Bishop became ruler of Grenada through the "revolution" of 1979, which was really a coup d'etat.

Step-by-step explanation:

Maurice Bishop used his influence as leader of the new jewel movement based on his ideology of socio-economic development, education, and black liberation to overthrow the government in a popular coup supported by the black people of Grenada, which was the majority of the population. However, Maurice was overthrown IN a coup himself by Winston Coard, who was also later overthrown IN another coup by General Hudson Austin, who established the military government of Grenada.
