     It is difficult to pin down the meaning of Ethiopianism, a “notoriously protean term,” says Eric Sundquist, one of the phenomena, says Paul Gilroy, that “we struggle to name as Pan-Africanism, Ethiopianism, Emigrationism....” Adding yet a third term, Wilson J. Moses characterizes Ethiopianism as a variant form of black nationalism, itself "often indistinguishable from the idea of Pan- Africanism."

     Ethiopianism emerged in the United States, perhaps by the early 1700s. Prince Hall, a free African who fought in the American Revolution, wrote in 1797 on the injustice and barbarity of slavery and the hope of redemption offered by the 1791 slave uprising in Haiti. Hall laid his hope on a God whom he conflated with Ethiopia: “Thus doth Ethiopia stretch forth her hand from slavery, to freedom and equality” (Moses, 1978:24).
