In their essays "Providential Design" and "The Negro Question," both Robert Trent Vinson and Hakim Adi show how American ideas of Garveyism impacted South African challenges to segregation and that the Black working class saw communism as a useful tool to organize against shared oppressions of American racism and colonialism.

Pan-Africanist ideologies required African people to reject European assimilation and embrace African ideologies. How is this reflected in "Song of Freedom"?
