It emphasizes the importance of placing three Atlantic figures within an Atlantic context and as African world community figures between the late-eighteenth and early-twentieth centuries. It also examines the religious origins of Black Power ideology and modern Pan Africanism as products of the African world community's dialogue about concepts of modernity, progress, and civilization. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e                                                            \u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hardback\u003cbr\u003e                              \u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 350 pages\u003cbr\u003e                              \u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 02 September 2021\u003cbr\u003e                              \u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: Lexington Books\u003cbr\u003e                          \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTravel and the Pan African Imagination delves into the African Atlantic realm as a fertile ground where modernity, racialized dominance, and racialized resistance emerged. The book underscores the significance of situating three Atlantic figures—the armed resistance leader Denmark Vesey, the West African emigration advocate Edward Wilmot Blyden, and the Christian missionary and educator Alexander Crummell—within an Atlantic framework and as prominent figures in the African world community spanning the late-eighteenth to early-twentieth centuries. Furthermore, the book explores the religious roots of Black Power ideology and modern Pan Africanism as outcomes of the profound exchange within the African world community concerning notions of modernity, progress, and civilization. Tracy Keith Flemming identifies how travel and social mobility fostered the emergence of a complex and evolving Atlantic world and a fluid and adaptable African world community imagination for individuals compelled to navigate and challenge a racially structured universe. The perplexing social position and symbolic figure of \"the African\" played a pivotal role in the dilemmas faced by racialized imagination figures in the field of Africology.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 680g                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 159 x 235 x 30 (mm)                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781498582544                                                      \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tracy Keith Flemming","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44102286409978,"sku":"9781498582544","price":120.78,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/f9c73c76534ccb6ad753c8741bf0e96f.jpg?v=1640667293","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/travel-and-the-pan-african-imagination","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
