A BIBLIOGRAPHICAL CHECKLIST
OF AMERICAN NEGRO WRITERS
ABOUT AFRICA
by
Dorothy B. PORTER
C3 INCE the latter part of the eighteenth century the American
Negro's interest in Africa has beencontinually shown in his writings.
Probably the first public statement by an American Negro pertaining to Africa was published bv Othello, a Negro resident of Maryland,
who in 1 788 protested the stealing of Africans for purposes of
enslavement and wrote that ((every corner of the globe would
reverberate with the sound of African oppression » if the inhabitants'
of Africa had crossed the Atlantic Ocean, seized American citizens,
and carried them back to slavery in Africa' . In the following
year the autobiography of Olaudah Equiano, also known as Gustavus
Vassa, appeared . In addition to recollections of childhood, Vassa's
book contained interesting descriptions of everyday life in Africa .
It is quite possible that Paul CufFee's Brief Account of the Settlement and Present Condition o/ the Colony o/ Sierra Leone (1812)
gave rise to interest in Sierra Leone as a place for colonization by
1. Carter G. Woodson, Negro Orators and Their Orations (Washington, D. C.
The Associated Publishers, 1925), p. 23 .

American Negroes. Cuffee, a Negro shipowner and navigator,
had explored the area in 1811 for the possibilities of colonization
and trade. It seems a meaningful coincidence that in 1817, the
very year of Cuffee's death, the American Colonization Society
was formed, and for more than fifty years remained a stimulus to
published propaganda b y American Negroes for and against
African colonization .
During this period, many American Negroes journeyed to
Africa ; but Negro missionaries and bishops of the various church
denominations began as early as the 1830's to write of their experiences while serving in many parts of Africa, specifically, in Sierra
Leone, Liberia, The Belgian Congo, South Africa, and Togoland .
Their successors have continued to publish about Africa up to the
present. One of the less known, but not the least zealous of Negro
missionaries, was Dr . William Henry Sheppard, a graduate of
Hampton Institute, who was made a Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society of London in recognition of his services as an explorer .
Sheppard went in 1890 as a missionary under the Presbyterian
church to Luebo in the Belgian Congo. There he labored for
twenty years and fearlessly exposed Belgian cruelties towards the
Africans . Sheppard's articles relating to the Bakuba of Central
Africa are informative, while his African folk tales are amusing.
Vfithin the scope of the present compilation of 421 titles by
forty-nine authors fall the writings of explorers like Martin Robison
Delany, who was sent to Africa to study the possibility of using
the Niger Valley as a place for the settlement of colored emigrants
from the United States ; of educators like Alexander Crummell,
who reminded the ((sons of Africa in America)) of their African
heritage in his Relations and Duty to the Land of Their Fathers
(1861) ; and of diplomats like George Washington Ellis, whose
research into the cultural life of Africa extended over his ten years
of diplomatic service . The writings of Thomas McCants Stewart,
a lawyer who helped codify the laws of Liberia and assisted in the
settlement of numerous boundary disputes in that country, and
of the scientists Hildrus Poindexter and Madison Briscoe, field
investigators in tropical bacteriology and entomology respectively,
may suggest further the considerable diversity of the American
Negro's interest in Africa .
Quite generally known are the varied African interests of the

late Alain LeRoy Locke. In a published article, ((Apropos of
Africa)), Locke urged the American Negro to support programs of
African studies and to inform himself about Africa through study,
travel, and exchange of students and of journalistic and scholarly
publications. The writings of W. E. B. DuBois, Monroe Work,
Carter G. Woodson, Rayford Logan and Max Yergan have yielded
considerable knowledge of Africa's more recent past ; while the
unpublished lectures and occasional articles of William Leo Hansberry have enabled that scholar to exert broad influence on both
African and American students of African history and archeology .
Other American Negroes have published travelogues, fiction
with an African theme, studies on agriculture, religion, family
life, linguistics, history, art, music, politics and biography. Their
books and articles have touched on life in Algeria, Egypt, Ethiopia,
Liberia, Sierra Leone, Nigeria, South Africa, Belgian Congo, Kenya,
Gold Coast, Angola, Southwest Africa, and Swaziland.
Owing to limited space, it has been necessary to omit biographical
notes and annotations. For the same reason, the compiler has
made no effort to analyze the literature in an extended essay. The
purpose here has been to present in true proportion the nature and
the scope of published expressions about Africa by American Negro
authors. Although it has not been -possible to include many
newspaper articles by Negroes published in either the white or the
Negro press, the compiler feels that this purpose has been accomplished.
It is hoped that in connection with the growing world interest
in African affairs, the present compilation will be significant as
an index to what Negro scholars, humanitarians, or students of
African interests have thought about the ((land of their fathers)) .
