The New African Movement stretched over a century from about 1862 to 1960. It consisted of writers, political and religious leaders, artists, teachers and scientists who called themselves New Africans - specifically New African intellectuals - to distinguish themselves from the Old Africans. They felt they stood out as a new movement because they were engaged with creating knowledge of modernity rather than taking consolation and satisfaction in the old ways of traditional societies. It studies the key figures in this intellectual movement in order to create a better understanding.

The first survey of the Pan-African movement this century, this book provides a history of the individuals and organisations that have sought the unity of all those of African origin as the basis for advancement and liberation. Initially an idea and movement that took root among the African Diaspora, in more recent times Pan-Africanism has been embodied in the African Union, the organisation of African states which includes the entire African Diaspora as its 'sixth region'. Hakim Adi covers many of the key political figures of the 20th century, including Du Bois, Garvey, Malcolm X, Nkrumah and Gaddafi, as well as Pan-African culture expression from Négritude to the wearing of the Afro hair style and the music of Bob Marley.

W. E. B. Du Bois was a public intellectual, sociologist, and activist on behalf of the African American community. He profoundly shaped black political culture in the United States through his founding role in the NAACP, as well as internationally through the Pan-African movement. Du Bois's sociological and historical research on African-American communities and culture broke ground in many areas, including the history of the post-Civil War Reconstruction period. Du Bois was also a prolific author of novels, autobiographical accounts, innumerable editorials and journalistic pieces, and several works of history. Written in very accessible prose, these two booklets, originally published in 1930, allowed W. E. B. Du Bois to reach a wide audience with an interest in Africa. What is so incredible about the two Africa booklets is their lasting relevance and value to the study of Africa today. Coupling Du Bois's breadth of scholarship with his passion for the subjects, the analyses in these booklets are integral to the study of Africa. Many of his arguments foreshadowed the issues and debates regarding Africa in the twentieth century. Expertly synthesized in an introduction by Emmanuel Akyeampong, this edition of the two Africa booklets is essential for anyone interested in African history.

In many ways, United States was the perfect realization of the historical experience of modernity in the twentieth-century. In this instance, perfection means the most complex, the most complicated, and the most enabling yet at the same time the most disabling. African Americans have been the subjects and the victims of the most contradictory and violent historical forces in the formation of modernity in the American context. The specificity of the violent vortex of American modernity has situated AfricanAmericans in an avant-garde position in regard to other black people in the world.In founding the New Negro Movement in the late nineteenth-century to construct a New Negro modernity, African Americans were defining and articulating their singularity within American modernity. The construction of New Negro modernistic sensibilities was present across various disciplines, art forms and systems such as religion, literature, music, philosophy, performance, preaching and ideologies.Concerning cultural and national self-definition, like the African Americans who had designated themselves as "New Negroes" in modernity in contrast to the "Old Negro" of slavery times, Africans gave meaning to themselves as "New Africans" of modern societies in contradistinction to their former selves as "Old Africans" constituted intraditional societies. Across the first half of the twentieth-century, through cultural practices, political interventions and philosophical formulations, the New Africans of the New African Movement forged the historical principles of New African modernity in emulation of the New Negro modernity of the New Negro Movement.This book assembles together scholarly reflections and poems by leading African American and South African intellectuals, writers and artists regarding the historical nature of this interaction between New African modernity and New Negro modernity within the purview of the defeat of apartheid in South Africa in 1994.

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.

The essays in this collection were written in celebration of the centenaries, in 2019, of Peter Abrahams, Noni Jabavu, Sibusiso Cyril Lincoln Nyembezi and Es'kia Mphahlele, all of whom were born in 1919. All four centenarians lived rich and diverse lives across several continents. In the years following the Second World War they produced more than half a century of foundational creative writing and literary criticism, and made stellar contributions to the founding and enhancement of institutions and repertoires of African and black arts and letters in South Africa and internationally. As a result, their lifeworlds and oeuvres present sharp and multifaceted engagements with and generative insights into a wide range of issues, including precolonial existence, colonialism, empire, race, culture, identity, class, the language question, tradition, modernity, exile, Pan-Africanism, and decolonisation.
