Pan-Africanism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Pan-Africanism is a movement that seeks to unify African people or people living in Africa, into a "one African community". [ 1 ] Differing types of Pan-Africanism seek different levels of economic, racial , social, or political unity. [ 2 ] [ edit ] Origins In the United States , the term is closely associated with Afrocentrism , an ideology of African American identity politics that emerged during the civil rights movement of the 1960s to 1970s. [ 3 ] "Pan-African" unity is especially important in African American identity politics, because the African ancestry of Afro-American community cannot be derived from any identifiable African people.

Pan-Africanism represents the complexities of black political and intellectual thought over two hundred years. What constitutes Pan-Africanism, what one might include in a Pan-African movement often changes according to whether the focus is on politics, ideology, organizations, or culture. Pan-Africanism actually reflects a range of political views.

Pan-Africanism

If strong national governments have been sought as the necessary basis for economic development, pan-African unity since independence has been Africa's means for overcoming the limitations of national weakness in a parlous world. Although most African statesmen have consistently urged pan-African unity, it was Kwame Nkrumah who was its most articulate early spokesman.
