Wall painting and history writing. The Set/Setal in Dakar. This study refers to the recent events in the Senegalese history and more particularly to the social movements. The most spectacular one found its leaders in the youth : (students, unemployed young people...). In turns, they resorted to the political commitment (the Sopi), to the violence of riots against the power and the Moors. And then suddenly in the years 1988-1989 they began to paint and draw on the walls, producing the Set/Setal representation and a historical memory against the now out of date nationalist fictions
