Förlagets beskrivning
Pan-Africanism, the perception by people of African origins and descent
that they have interests in common, has been an important by product of
colonialism and the enslavement of African peoples by Europeans. Though it has
taken a variety of forms over the two centuries of its fight for equality and
against economic exploitation, commonality has been a unifying theme for many
black people, resulting for example in the Back-to-Africa movement in the
United States but also in Nationalist beliefs such as an African
"supra-nation". Pan African History brings together Pan-Africanist thinkers and
activists from the Anglophone and Francophone worlds of the past two hundred
years. Included are well-known figures such as Malcolm X, W.E.B. Du Bois, Kwame
Nkrumah, and Martin Delany, and the authors' original research on lesser-known
figures such as Constance Cummings-John and Duse Mohammed Ali reveals exciting
new aspects of Pan-African activism. Brings together Pan-Africanist thinkers and activists from the Anglophone
and Francophone worlds of the past two-hundred years.
