1.       African Nationalism was a movement across Africa to fight colonialism and demand independence from the colonisers.

2.       South Africa in 1909, Algeria in 1946 and Angola in 1575 .

3.       Pan Africanism is a movement for greater co-operation among Africans.

4.       African Nationalism was a movement across Africa to fight colonialism and Pan-Africanism is a movement for greater co-operation among Africans.

5.       Kwame Nkrumah led the Gold Coast’s anti-colonial struggle for independence from Brittain and Robert Sobukwe founded the Pan Africanist Congress in opposition to the apartheid regime.

6.       The song ‘Buffalo Soldier’ relates to Pan-Africanism because it says that there was an African “Buffalo Soldier stolen from Africa in the heart of America.” The soldier was fighting an arrival and also fighting for survival like Africans were against colonialism. That soldier was Bob Marley himself.
