Description
Edward Wilmot Blyden (1832-1912) was a diplomat, educator, writer and politician. Born in the West Indies, he migrated to Liberia in 1851. Blyden’s writings on pan-Africanism were influential in Liberia and Sierra Leone, the two countries founded in the time of slavery for the resettlement of free blacks from the United Kingdom and the United States. Blyden believed that Zionism was a model for what he termed Ethiopianism, and that African-Americans could return to Africa and redeem it.
In 1869, Blyden published The Negro in Ancient History, a work of 25 pages with the aim of "opening the eyes of black people to see their true mission and destiny, to escape from the house of bondage to their ancestral home, and assist in building a Christian African empire."
