Nationalism Pan-Africanism (1920s)- belief that all Africans should work together for their rights and freedoms. “Africa for Africans” was the slogan of this movement. Leopold Senghor - a leader of this movement in Senegal (became the country’s first president in 1960).

World War II This war played a significant role in the African Independence Movement. Many Africans fought alongside the Allies for European freedom. When the war ended and Africans returned home, they wanted freedom for themselves.
