La Nuit des Idées in Abidjan, Thursday 27 January, 7pm at the Institut français de Côte d'Ivoire: Reconstructing our history together.

"Until lions have their own historians, hunting stories can only sing the glory of the hunter. Thus history does not always reflect the facts and the voice of those who write it predominates over the echo of those who live it.

What fairness of treatment and importance should be given to the events that mark out our common history? Talking about some without hurting the memory of others, a first step towards resilience?

Come and debate with Gauz, writer, Catherine Coquery Vitrovitch, historian and Philippe Simo, influencer.
