The goal of the pan-African movement was to raise the collective voice of all Africans in opposition to racialized dominance. Africans were subjected to colonial oppression both within and outside of their own continent during the 20th century, which gave rise to the Pan African movement. African Americans were also speaking up and make the rest of the world aware of their plight. The overview of this research paper is to focus on the history of the Pan African movement and to emphasize the contribution of women to Pan Africanism. Any revolutionary transformation affects society in ways that are political, cultural, and economically significant. According to our research, women played the largest role in this movement, but the historical text did not reflect this. This paper also aims to examine how Pan African movements have impacted social, political, and cultural advancement, particularly through the eyes of women. In this paper would like to use the theoretical understanding of Sandra Harding's Stand point theory. The idea that the viewpoints of marginalized and or oppressed people might aid in the creation of more objective accounts of the world. This theory is one the feminist theories that refers to as "strong objectivity," and revised the history for knowing the standpoint of oppressed class.
