This book examines the contemporary operational and theoretical
parameters of Pan-Africanism and black nationalism in the
post-civil rights era. It uses the Nuwaubian movement as a case
study to explore this essential strand in African Diasporan
history, culture, and tradition. The author argues that the
Nuwaubian Nation, like their contemporaries such as the Nation of
Islam, represents contemporary efforts of African descendants to
dialectically and culturally fight oppression. He argues that
unlike the classical Back to Africa movements, the contemporary
ones do not seek to primarily relocate to Africa, but to go to
Africa culturally and bring back Africa to the diaspora. This
effort can be seen in the Nuwaubian attempts at unearthing and
importing classical African traditions, mores, and values in their
in their various communities across the United States, especially
in Eatonton, Georgia. Their aim was to chart an identity for their
adherents and inspire racial pride for African people.
