This keynote address analyses the contents of the three issues of O Negro (1911), the first black-owned combative newspaper to be published in Lisbon by individuals born in São Tomé and Príncipe. O Negro's contribution to anticolonial struggles is highlighted and placed in the context of the ambivalences at the heart of the publication's project. Its relevance for the development of later anticolonial developments in Portugal is also assessed.
