Île de Gorée Island
Jean-Dominique Burton
ISBN: 9782930451145
(HB - E/ F)

Gorée island has been chosen as a symbol and a place of memory. It is one of the historic sites where the destiny of thousands of Africans was played out over five centuries, victims of the slave trade. It is a place of recognition and reconsiliation for the African diaspora.
UNESCO classified Gorée island as a world heritage site in 1978.
Next to this bilingual publication there is also a contemplative film, 18'27 '', subtitled in French and English, where Sacha Ndoye, a native of the island, tells, in Wolof, the most fantastic tales of Goree. The QR code is inserted in the book.
