Read and participate in a discussion on the legacy of Franc's Colonial Rule in Muslim lands, providing historical context to the events unfolding in France and in Europe at large. Facilitated by Dr. Jean-Jacque Ngor Sène, Associate Professor of History and Cultural Studies, Chatham University. Dr. Sène will lead a discussion focused on the diversity of Arabic sources, archival sources from colonial registries, oral ethnographic documents, and powerful folkloric testimonies from the early 1900s onwards. The book is a unique springboard for a re-evaluation of (Muslim) Civil Societies' agency against neo-imperial forces of mass exploitation in our times.
20 free copies of book available, ACT 48 credits available for PA teachers.
