Crummell's Universality and Significance; Notes; Bibliography; Appendix: Constitution and By-Laws of the American Negro Academy; IndexThis remarkable biography, based on much new information, examines the life and times of one of the most prominent African-American intellectuals of the nineteenth century. Born in New York in 1819, Alexander Crummell was educated at Queen's College, Cambridge, after being denied admission to Yale University and the Episcopal Seminary on purely racial grounds. In 1853, steeped in the classical tradition and modern political theory, he went to the Republic of Liberia as an Episcopal missionary, but was forced to flee to Sierra Leone in 1872, having barely survived republican Africa's first coupAfrican AmericansBiographyBlack nationalismUnited StatesHistory19th centuryPan-AfricanismHistory19th centuryElectronic books.African AmericansBlack nationalismHistoryPan-AfricanismHistory973.04960730092B973.04960730924B973.8092973/.0496073/0924 BMoses Wilson Jeremiah1942-700527MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910451527703321Alexander Crummell1368884UNINA
