UN ARTISTE, UN LIVRE - Donel Jack'sman

A leading figure in stand-up, social media and television, he presents a reading of Tania de Montaigne’s book “Noire - La vie cachée de Claudette Colvin”. It tells the story of the first Black woman who, in America in the 60s, refused to give up her seat on a bus to a white person. Before Rosa Park! One became a household name; the other remained anonymous.

Far from setting them against each other, this remarkable work invites us to discover or rediscover the history and political context of a period that was decisive in the fight against racism, a struggle that remains relevant today. The reading is followed by a public discussion.
