Literary movement of the 1930s, '40s, and '50s. It began among French-speaking African and Caribbean writers living in Paris as a protest against French colonial rule and the policy of assimilation. Its leading figures Léopold Senghor of Senegal, Aimé Césaire of Martinique, and Léon Damas (1912-78) of French Guiana began to examine Western values critically and to reassess African culture. The group believed that the value and dignity of African traditions and peoples must be asserted, that Africans must look to their own heritage for values and traditions, and that writers should use African subject matter and poetic traditions. The movement faded in the early 1960s after its objectives had been achieved in most African countries
an ideological position that holds Black culture to be independent and valid on its own terms; an affirmation of the African cultural heritage
