The slave from Senegal who became notable for his published poetry is Léopold Sédar Senghor. Born in 1906 in Senegal, he was enslaved as a child but later went on to study in France, where he became a prominent poet and politician. Senghor's works often celebrated African culture and identity, and he played a key role in the Négritude literary movement. He eventually became the first president of Senegal after the country gained independence.
