Show notes

"Pilgrimage to My Motherland" by Robert Campbell offers a vivid account of his journey among the Egbas and Yorubas of Central Africa during 1859-60. As a member of the Niger Valley Exploring Party, Campbell shares his impressions and observations as a first-time visitor to regions that are now part of modern-day Nigeria. This work not only documents a significant historical exploration but also serves as a precursor to the "Back to Africa" movements that would later gain momentum, particularly through figures like Marcus Garvey Jr. The themes of cultural connection and the quest for identity resonate powerfully today, making Campbell's insights both relevant and enduring as they reflect the ongoing dialogue about heritage and belonging.
