The Decolonial Aesthesis of Recentering
Léonora Miano's novel Rouge impératrice (2019) plunges readers into the year 2124 to imagine a future for the African continent. Decolonial approaches, especially as theorized by Ngũgĩ wa Thiong'o, demonstrate how the novel elaborates a decolonial aesthesis of recentering. This concept helps define the decolonial posture at work in it, where an imaginary return to Africa is informed by reenvisioning the past and reflecting on ecology and gender

The Power of the “Knowing Women”
Serena Owusua Dankwa's remarkable book Knowing Women: Same-Sex Intimacy, Gender, and Identity in Postcolonial Ghana offers a refreshing perspective on the representation of same-sex intimacy in Africa. In her book, the author sets out to examine the complex ways in which women who are engaged in same-sex relationships (“knowing women,” in Dankwa's words) “appeal to same-sex passion and intimacy as a knowledge that is acquired through practice and…

This article examines media representations of same-sex sexuality in Senegal, and analyses how same-sex sexuality has been covered in a selection of Senegalese newspapers since the early 2000s. Drawing on Stuart Hall’s perspective on the role of mass media and ideology and the theory of Critical Discourse Analysis, this article describes how discourses produced by selected Senegalese newspapers generate and circulate ideological meanings. This ar…

Since the publication of her first novel Le ventre de l’Atlantique (2003), Fatou Diome, a Senegalese author who immigrated to France in the 1990s, has been regularly invited to French cultural TV programmes, in which she often criticises European foreign policy, as well as social and racial segregation. Despite her public political commitment, in several interviews, Fatou Diome argues that literature should be dissociated from politics. This arti…

Queer political subjectivities in Senegal
This paper examines how homosexuality has become a subject of political contestation in Senegal, beginning in the late 2000s and continuing to the present. Repression of same-sex sexuality reached a peak in February 2008 after a Senegalese tabloid, Icône, published 20 photos of an allegedly gay marriage, and 5 men were subsequently put into custody. Based on fieldwork research and several interviews conducted in the cities of Dakar, Thies and Mbo…
