He declared himself a pan-Africanist. In 1978 he changed his name to Kwame Ture, to honor African socialist leaders Kwame Nkrumah and Ahmed Sekoe Toure. He lived in Guinea for 33 years, until his diagnosis with prostate cancer. He died in 1998. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eCHARLES V. HAMILTON is a political scientist, civil rights leader, and the W.
