Abstract
ABSTRACTThis article seeks to explore the Pan-Africanism of W.E.B. Du Bois (1868–1963) and its interconnections with the Pan-African thought and practice of Kwame Nkrumah (1909–1972) with respect to the capacity of education to serve as an engine of social transformation. The author contends that their ideas represent a liberatory philosophy of education, one that elucidates how education can serve the ends of social transformation. Additionally, the author discusses a conceptual model based upon the Akan notion of nokware (“truth”), which is proposed as the basis of a Pan-African critical theory, a philosophical model concerning itself with the transformation and liberation of the African world.
