The Pan-African Pantheon

'A major contribution to our understanding of the life and work of key figures in the history of Pan-Africanism, presented by scholars from Africa, the Caribbean, the US and Europe.' Hakim Adi, Professor of the History of Africa and the African Diaspora, University of Chichester 'This volume constitutes a remarkable piece of scholarship, given its conceptualisation, scope of thematic coverage, and fascinating range of eminent African and Diaspora personalities, encompassing the scope and promise for building a new people-driven Pan-Africanism . This is a volume deserving to be read and re-read, reflected on, widely disseminated and debated - it is indeed a tour de force.' Patrick Gomes, former Secretary-General of the Organisation of African, Caribbean, and Pacific States 'This book makes a unique contribution to the literature on Pan-Africanism. It not only analyses Pan-Africanism as a school of thought, but connects this intellectual thinking to the lived experiences of those who practiced and promoted this worldview. Such a rich interrogation of Pan-Africanism as a school of thought is both timely, and will stand the test of time on bookshelves for years to come.' Krista Johnson, Associate Professor of African Studies, Howard University 'This book is a must-read for students and practitioners interested in the political, socio-economic, and cultural autonomy and self-reliant development of exiled Africans and Africans on the continent.' Kwame Akonor, Associate Professor of Political Science, Seton Hall University 'We must celebrate Adebajo's objective, through this book, to contribute substantively to efforts to transform curricula , an ongoing exercise in South Africa known as the decolonisation of education .
