Féminisme caribéen francophone

Catalog description

An introduction to feminisms in the Francophone Caribbean, this course traces the recent history of feminist movements in Haiti, La Martinique, and Guadeloupe in light of a strong tradition of militant anticolonial and anti-imperial activism. With a double focus on theory and practice, we will engage in a broad range of inquiries: course materials include essays, graphic novels, short stories, poems, documentaries, editorials by journalists, and the work of feminist scholars across the disciplines. Taught in French.
