TRIBUNE. Madame la présidente du Parlement européen, reprogrammez la conférence de Maboula Soumahoro sur l’antiracisme ! ✍️ Plusieurs centaines d’intellectuels et de personnalités, dont Virginie Despentes, @RokhayaDiallo, @AissaMaiga et @EricFassin liberation.fr/idees-et-debat…


Choquant!

La honte! Le Parlement européen cède à Marion Maréchal et annule l'invitation de l’universitaire antiraciste Maboula Soumahoro. Solidarité avec Maboula, victime de désinformation, de Franc-Tireur à Valeurs Actuelles, d'insultes et de menaces. @Mediapart mediapart.fr/journal/france…



A few days in Paris at the Columbia Global Center for the Madagascar workshop 2024. Listening here to writer Michèle Rakotoson, author of novel“Ambohimanga, le silence et la douleur”, magistral on the difference between writing about slavery in French and in Malagasy.

Haven’t seen the exhibition yet, but I have a tiny piece in the catalogue on the Malagasy walking dead and “the danger of a bad reputation”

Ce que Macron fait est typique des régimes françafricains où le pouvoir choisit le gouvernement et l'opposition. Si les Français avaient l'humilité et la possibilité d'apprendre vraiment leur histoire coloniale, ils comprendraient mieux le fonctionnement de leur propre système.

In a text published in the regional press on Wednesday, French President Emmanuel Macron wrote that "no one" won the snap elections and urged parties to build a "broad" coalition. ✍️ @gatinois4, @NSegaunes lemde.fr/4cGjLpt
