La noire de... (1966).
“Ousmane Sembène: Inverting the Colonial Gaze,” a dossier that I co-edited with my colleague and friend Raquel Schefer (Sorbonne Nouvelle University) for the journal La Furia Umana, is now available online here. We are grateful to the authors of the great articles included in the dossier:
• Mary Jane Androne (Albright College), “Work and Economic Change in Sembène’s Films;”
• M. Gail Hamner (Syracuse University), “Mask and Materiality in Ousmane Sembène’s Black Girl;”
• Jayson Baker (Curry College), “Black Girl and Global Media Culture;”
• Eddy Troy (Western Washington University), “Images at Work: Ousmane Sembène’s Feminist Film Aesthetics;”
• Savrina Chinien (The University of the West Indies), “Ousmane Sembène: The Throes of Postcolonialism?”
“Ousmane Sembène: Inverting the Colonial Gaze” also includes my article “Land and Power: The Landscapes of Ousmane Sembène’s Post-Colonial Cinema,” which may be accessed here.
Our thanks to Toni D’Angela, the editor-in-chief of La Furia Umana, for his support.
