Edward W. Blyden, "The Jewish Question," and the Diaspora: Theory and Practice

   Abstract
Dr. Blyden’s booklet, "The Jewish Question," has been largely ignored, as it relates not only to the Jewish Question, proper, but also to the question of African American identifications with Africa and the quest to return, in one sense or another, to the "land of their fathers." This article examines all of these three aspects of Blyden’s work and suggests in what ways the idea of a Diaspora could be understood in theory and in practice, considering Blyden’s attitudes.
