African Writers Conference

On 1 June 1962〔("The First Makerere African Writers Conference 1962" ), Makerere University.〕 a conference of African literature in the English language, the first African Writers Conference, was held at Makerere University in Kampala, Uganda. Officially called a "Conference of African Writers of English Expression", it was attended by many prominent African writers, including Chinua Achebe, Wole Soyinka (later Nobel Laureate in Literature), John Pepper Clark, Ezekiel Mphahlele, Bloke Modisane, Lewis Nkosi, Ngũgĩ wa Thiong'o (then known as James Ngugi), Ezekiel Mphahlele, Robert Serumaga, Rajat Neogy (founder of ''Transition Magazine'').〔〔John Roger Kurtz, (''Urban Obsessions, Urban Fears: The Postcolonial Kenyan Novel'' ), Africa World Press, 1998, pp. 15-16.〕 The conference was "not only the very first major international gathering of writers and critics of African literature on the African continent; it was also held at the very cusp of political independence for most African countries."〔(Announcement of conference to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the June 1962 ), Humanities & Social Sciences Online.〕
==Conference topics==
The conference dealt with the issue of how the legacy of colonialism had left the African writer with a dilemma with regard to the language choice in writing. The questions raised and debated at the conference were:
*What constitutes African literature?
*Is it literature written by Africans, literature that depicts the African experience?
*Does African literature have to be written in African languages?
