Inscrit au barreau anglais au XIXe siècle, il fut un actif partisan du mouvement panafricain. Il avait noué des rapports étroits avec les noirs africains de Grande-Bretagne, et les conseilla juridiquement. En 1900, au moment de l'exposition coloniale, il convoqua une conférence à Londres contre l'accaparement des terres coutumières par les Européens. Selon Du Bois, c'est cette conférence qui popularisa le mot « panafricanisme ».
