What better way to take a look at black French history than through an English-speaking window. Prepare your ears and your glasses, because the word “intersection” will undoubtedly come up in G Major in conversation.
Because it is at the exact intersection of the Francophonie and the study of feminist movements thatAnnette Joseph Gabriel began to lift a veil, that of invisibility. A young and beautiful academic, this professor of women’s studies in North Carolina in the USA is looking for, it’s her job. She seeks not to forget 7 black women erased from the history of French decolonization. From Suzanne Césaire to Aoua Keïta via Eugénie Eboué-tell Imagining the liberation of black women in the face of empire, it’s this essential little bible that she signs for Ed Robokrik. A beautiful crossing for our Franco-Ghanaian guest who, to understand the question of alienation, will have passed, not through Africa, but through Martinique.
