Abstract
- This article sheds light on the situation of colonialism in Africa. And yet some 150,000,000 black Africans live under conditions which make them ripe for communism. They are politically oppressed and economically exploited, segregated and kept largely illiterate. The leaders are becoming increasingly impatient with the gradualist policies of the colonial nations. France is trying a novel experiment in the administration of its overseas black territories. On paper, at least, the natives of these territories have become full-fledged citizens of the Republic and are directly represented in the National Assembly.
