"Africans, let us rise!" Patrice lunumber
"We prefer freedom," Sekou Toure
"The duty to civilize," Jules Ferry
Fifty years ago, most African territories gained their independence. Among the leaders of liberation movements, Patrice Lumumba, the Congolese national hero, fought for the gathering of African peoples against imperialism. Before him, the Guinean Sekou Toure already called "the flowering of African values." African voices rose for the first time against the dominant ideology in Europe since the nineteenth century, colonialism, notably defended by Jules Ferry, who advocated "the duty to civilize the inferior races."
