SUMMARY:Pan-Africanism in Africa and the U.S.: Marcus Garvey and I.T.A. Wallace-Johnson in Conversation
DESCRIPTION:CSAAD Africa~Diaspora Forum Series  \n\nThursday\, February 20th\, 2025\n5:00 pm – 6:30 pm \n\n\nNEW YORK UNIVERSITY\nAbu Dhabi New York University\n19 Washington SQ North\nNew York City\, NY 10012 \n\nZoom link: https://nyu.zoom.us/j/95296862039 \n\nThis panel event will explore themes of Pan-Africanism. Dr. McDuffie considers the significance of the U.S.Midwest to shaping twentieth-century Pan-Africanism through Garveyism.

In tandem\, Dr. Rashid investigates the ideas\, activities\, and influences of Isaac Theophilus Akunna Wallace-Johnson\, a journalist\, trade unionist\, Pan-Africanist\, and politician\, who played a pivotal role in energizing the anti-colonial and national movement in West Africa between the 1930s and 1960s. Untangling this paradox offers interesting insights on different ways in which Pan-Africanism consciousness and politics were shaped and expressed during the colonial period. \nWatch Event Recording Here\nDr. Ismail Rashid’s Presentation\n\n  \n \nErik S.
