Undoubtedly an initiator and one of the most outstanding poets of the Negritude movement, Damas is the least known of the three, the other two being Senghor and Cesaire. The author places Damas' Pigments as the first and most innovative text of his generation. The book was banned and burned in the French colonies of West Africa because of its advocacy to Africans to resist French conscription in the Second World War.
