Subject:Italo-Ethiopian War
Abstract:In the view of the most articulate Negroes and pan-Africanists of the 1930s, the Italian invasion of Ethiopia in 1935 and the Italo-Ethiopian struggle was essentially a racial war; what occurred in Ethiopia directly concerned other parts of Africa and the entire black world. The article presents the nature of the impact of the Italo-Ethiopian struggle on the American Negroes and the development of their attitudes towards Africa in two sections respectively describing the background of the reaction of Africans and American Negroes and their attitudes during the crisis.
