Bépp làkk rafet na
This article examines the enigmatic afterlife of a widely circulating Wolofal verse—“bépp làkk rafet na”—commonly attributed to the early twentieth-century poet Muusaa Ka, and long mobilized by Senegalese writers and activists advocating for the value of writing in Wolof. Taking up Annette Damayanti Lienau’s invitation to consider ʿajam as a ground of comparison, the essay uses this fragment to explore the relationship between Wolof’s two major s…
‘A curious creature from the market’
This chapter puts world literature and African print cultures into conversation by exploring a widely circulating tale of desire, deception and escape that was told all over pre-colonial Africa and then spread across the globe by slavery and imperialism. The Palm-Wine Drinkard brought the folktale known as the ‘complete gentleman’ story to an international audience in 1952, but the scale of this narrative phenomenon was already massive. Since 186…
Cultural attachés
Recent attempts to outline post-critical models of interpretation in literary studies have often fixated on suspicion, paranoia, or unmasking as their foils. But in the early decades of decolonization, it made sense to be paranoid: writers and artists were justified in suspecting that they were being covertly observed, funded, or promoted by para-state actors knee-deep in the Cold War battlefield of culture. Scholars have long debated whether and…
Decolonizing the Married Woman
Annette K. Joseph-Gabriel's Reimagining Liberation: How Black Women Transformed Citizenship in the French Empire (2020) models the critical possibilities of attending to the overlooked records of Black women's political imaginations. This discussion essay explores what happens if we extend Joseph-Gabriel's recuperative method past the 1960s and into the early independence era. No one would call the Senegalese novelist Mariama Bâ overlooked, and y…

Enduring Epidemic
In 1914, an epidemic of bubonic plague ravaged colonial Dakar. The panicked French colonial administration blamed the native population and evicted indigenous Africans from the city center before burning their homes. The Dakarois fought back through a general strike, political maneuvering, and, finally, by taking to the streets. Out of this year of disease, politics, racism, and resistance came the new, segregated neighborhood of Médina, which wa…
The Labor of the Living Dead
This article develops the concept of the labor of the living dead through readings of recent Senegalese films, novels, comics, and music videos in Wolof and French. The undead have been resurgent in cultural production for decades but these are not your average zombies: they do not inspire collective dread nor are they directed by opaque, outside forces. In Senegal, the focus has more often been on the work of the undead. This enigmatic concept s…
The Tongue-Tied Imagination
Enacting Postcolonial Translation
Ousmane Sembène encountered a host of financial, logistical, and bureaucratic problems during the production of La Noire de... (1966). This essay studies how those difficulties forced Sembène to make changes to the voices of characters and to the color of the film stock. Due to funding difficulties, the main character Diouana is played on-screen by the Senegalese actress Thérèse M’Bissine Diop but in the soundtrack the performance is that of the …
