Abstract

Au milieu du vingtième siècle, alors que se joue la fin de l'empire colonial français, des penseuses et militantes noires s'engagent au cœur des grands mouvements de décolonisation. Encore bien trop méconnues aujourd'hui, Suzanne Césaire, Paulette Nardal, Eugénie Éboué-Tell, Jane Vialle, Andrée Blouin, Aoua Kéita et Eslanda Robeson sont pourtant des protagonistes majeures de luttes autant locales que globales. Explorant leurs écrits et leurs archives, Annette Joseph-Gabriel propose un chemin alternatif à un récit des décolonisations jusqu'ici très centré sur les figures masculines. Revendiquant l'égalité et usant du langage de la citoyenneté, ces militantes imaginent de nouvelles identités situées entre la France, l'Afrique, les Caraïbes, la diaspora et le Sud global. Elles remettent en cause les bases du colonialisme en affirmant la multiplicité de leurs appartenances politiques et culturelles. L'ouvrage exhume des parcours passionnants et montre les convergences de pensée entre ces actrices des décolonisations – toutes se battent pour une plus large représentation et participation politique des femmes – sans aplanir leurs divergences stratégiques parfois profondes. Il construit ainsi une histoire complexe du féminisme noir, en suivant l'histoire de son tissage transnational.

Abstract

Race Women Internationalists explores how a group of Caribbean and African American women in the early and mid-twentieth century traveled the world to fight colonialism, fascism, sexism, and racism. Based on newspaper articles, speeches, and creative fiction and adopting a comparative perspective, the book brings together the entangled lives of three notable but overlooked women: American Eslanda Robeson, Martinican Paulette Nardal, and Jamaican Una Marson. It explores how, between the 1920s and the 1960s, the trio participated in global freedom struggles by traveling; building networks in feminist, student, black-led, anticolonial, and antifascist organizations; and forging alliances with key leaders. This made them race women internationalists-figures who engaged with a variety of interconnected internationalisms to challenge various forms of inequality facing people of African descent across the diaspora and the continent.
