Le panafricanisme, le grand rêve d’union...

Radio-Canada
About this episode

L'idée politique de réunir les États d'Afrique n'est pas nouvelle; elle remonte à l'époque coloniale et a été soutenue au 20e siècle par la diaspora africaine. Avec la décolonisation, le panafricanisme a pris une ampleur nouvelle et s'est retrouvé incarné par les héros de l'indépendance. Patrick Dramé, professeur titulaire au Département d'histoire de l'Université de Sherbrooke et spécialiste de l'Afrique, rappelle les moments forts du panafricanisme.
