Abstract:As far as the present author is aware, no writer has been able to set out in considerable and coherent detail the often-mentioned pan-African activities of the West African Students' Union. The present article has a twofold aim: to fill in some gaps in what is already known about the organisation, and to re-examine its contribution to ghe growth of the Pan-African Movement partly on the basis of the Union's official records and partly on the evidence furnished by the quarter century beginning in 1925 when the organisation was most active. Notes.
