Abstract
This paper examines the concept of Sierra Leone serving historically as a cultural capital of Pan-Africanism. Culture is examined from the perspectives of race, language, formal educational attainment, and religion, especially Christianity. Racially and ethnically, the people of Sierra Leone today are the descendants of not just native Sierra Leoneans, but also natives of dozens of other Sub-Saharan African nations, and people of Black African descent from North America, the Caribbean and the United Kingdom. As a result, the Sierra Leone Krio/Creole language is a Pan-African Krio/Creole. Historically, Fourah Bay College in Sierra Leone has served as one of the most important academic/intellectual institutions in the Black world that have contributed to the brain thrust to Pan-Africanism. Finally, Sierra Leonean Christianity can be explained as a Pan-African Christianity.
