Description
In 1950, the large majority of African people lived under the dominance of a foreign colonial power or the violence of a racist regime. Later, in 1959, a large array of Subsaharan territories was vying for self-determination and independence, following the examples of Ghana and Guinea-Conakry, and stepping into an era of changing. The launching of the Afro-Asiatic movement in 1947 and the Bandung Conference in 1955 may be considered marking steps on the process of decolonization. As they won an increasingly stronger voice claiming for citizenship, dignity, self-representation, self-determination, the colonized started also the hard and long process of decolonizing their minds.
