Identites. Identity

Description

Mon pere est d'origine Africaine. "Ma mere est nee en Guadeloupe." In this program, everyday people talk about their roots: where their ancestors came from, how long they themselves have lived in a particular place, and what it means to them to be from Senegal, Quebec, and the French overseas region of Guadeloupe. In addition, the video travels to the House of Slaves freedom museum on Senegal's Goree Island and to Guadeloupe, where a mixture of races, religions, and traditions have fused, over the centuries, into a vibrant Caribbean Creole culture.
