“Pan-African Feminist Popular Education”
This issue of Feminist Africa focuses on pan-African feminist popular education in Global Africa as a liberatory force for women. Our intention is to contribute to the documentation of both historical and contemporary practices of pan-African feminist popular education. The issue is inspired by long-standing, often undocumented, practices of popular education in Pan-African and Feminist movements. The contributions in this issue actively engage African women on questions of power, patriarchy, pan-Africanism, class consciousness, and women’s rights and dignity in Africa. They contribute to our collective archiving efforts that document historical and ongoing experiments with pan-African feminist popular education. By focusing on contemporary practices while tracing historical genealogies, the work presented in this issue reveals the often invisible intellectual and political work of African women who have been active in popular education.
