- Academic Paper from the year 2020 in the subject African Studies - Literature, grade: NA, , course: Phd, language: English, abstract: Due to colonization, the African people faced exploitation and suffered under racist rulers for prolonged periods. But with the decline of imperialism and the gradual liberation of one country after another, native populations began to assert themselves and do well in a variety of fields such as academics, sports, media, and cinema. Even the women came out and began taking part in activities from which they had earlier stayed away. This began in 1950s and 1960s when most of the African countries were liberated; with this liberation, their literature started flourishing with numerous works both in quality and quantity. Keywords: Colonization, liberation struggle, African literature, progressive voices
