F. Manchuelle - The Role of West Indians in the Emergence of Cultural Nationalism in French-Speaking Africa. The twentieth-century movement of French-speaking Black writers known as negritude has had a powerful influence on people of African descent throughout the world. Existing studies do not reach far prior to the inception of the movement in the 1930s, yet the basic ideas of negritude were already present in the writings of black expatriates in Paris in the nineteenth century. Contrary to what is gener-ally believed, Francophone Blacks did not seek to become "black Frenchmen", indistinguishable from other Frenchmen except by the color of their skin. While they were in favor of giving full political rights to colonized peoples, many rejected their outright cultural assimilation
