| Summary: | Pan-African Connections brings to the reader a combination of Reflections and Testimonies from writers, politicians, activists and colleagues with essays on intellectual activism, the building of Pan-African institutions and the voices of women in Panafricanism. Stories abound from writers such as Ngugi wa Thiong'o and Anyang' Nyong'o. Locksley Edmondson who is featured in this collection, like Walter Rodney, lived and worked on the African continent physically, but also engaged Africa politically, culturally and intellectually in teaching and research in the Caribbean and the United States. The lives and work of these scholars embodied precisely the brining together of African, Caribbean and African-American studies in the intellectual arena. Through this generation of intellectual/activists, the rubric of Panfricanism [sic] remains one of the key areas of the key areas of academic and political discourse. |
