This call gives special consideration to those submissions which directly engage with the themes covered in the first decades of Ufahamu’s publication.  Examples include direct engagement with a previously published article in Ufahamu, a paper written through citations of past Ufahamu writings, or any submission addressing themes such as:

Anti-colonialism

National liberation

Consciousness

Pan-Africanism

Black Marxisms

Activist-intellectualism

and much more!

The editors are also soliciting articles concerning contemporary political issues in Africa and the diaspora in the spirit of Ufahamu’s original activist-academic ethos.
