ABSTRACT

This short paper aims to discuss the effects of African-American rhetoric on the developments of African public policy. There is an historic relationship between the civil rights struggle in the United States and the struggle for independence on the continent that was greatly influenced by the political discourse that emerged in the US during the 1960’s. This examination or discussion will reflect an essay by Dr. Molefi Asante entitled, The Future of African-American Rhetoric and reference the developments in South Africa to mirror pan-Africanist ideology in an ever-converging world through globalization. As an advocate for a pan-Africanism movement, this paper seeks to simply open channels for further discourse.
