"The problem of Africanisation of the top management raises concerns among us […] this is what we must adress without further delay […] We are far from being able to achieve what the Missions have realised." Higher education of Congolese started very late. Only in the 1950s did (a few) Congolese gain access to university studies. At the end of the 1950s, these évolués were for the first time, albeit moderately and only up to a certain level of authority, allowed to join administrations and business life. The church had already begun in the early 20th century with the ordination to priesthood of black people. Received letter, 1958.
