Peuples Noirs/Peuples Africains (English: Black Peoples/African Peoples)[1] was a bimonthly African political periodical that ran from 1978 to 1991.[2] The first issue was published in Cameroon in January/February 1978.[2] It was created by Mongo Beti[2] and his spouse Odile Tobner, who fought for human rights for political prisoners in Francophone Africa, and especially in Cameroon.

Quoted from the first issue from January/February 1978 (translated from French):[2]

Eighteen years after some independence in some states, finally an important black publication controlled financially, ideologically, and technically by black francophone Africans, and by them alone.
