Revolutionary Roots: The Global Black Liberation Struggle and the Shaping of Modern African Nova Scotia

Revolutionary Roots: The Global Black Liberation Struggle and the Shaping of Modern African Nova Scotia traces how international currents of Black resistance—Pan-Africanism, anti-colonial struggles, Black Power, and socialist internationalism—have profoundly shaped African Nova Scotian political consciousness, organizing, and cultural life. The lecture situates African Nova Scotia within a wider Black Atlantic and Global South world, highlighting the circulation of ideas, people, and movements that connected local struggles for dignity and justice to global liberation projects.
