His notion of the boomerang-effect of slavery and colonialism and his scathing critique of the French left for its failure ..."

"Aimé Césaire's masterpiece, Notebook of a Return to the Native Land, is a work of immense cultural significance and beauty. The long poem was the beginning of Césaire's quest for négritude, and it became an anthem of Blacks around the world.

Senghor y Léon Damas, uno de los principales impulsores del movimiento de la negritud, que desde mediados de la década de 1930 reivindicó la dignidad, la profundidad y la belleza de las culturas negras cuando, en plena crisis del modelo colonial, las problemáticas ligadas a lo que después se denominaría teoría poscolonial apenas se dejaban intuir en el horizonte político de la modernidad.
