What scars did French colonization leave? What must France do to heal these wounds? Should it apologize?
This discussion features Pascal Blanchard, historian specializing in colonialism and immigration, associate researcher at CRHIM and co-director of the Achac Research Group on colonial and postcolonial representations, discourses, and imaginaries; and Benjamin Stora, PhD in History and Sociology, former President of the National Museum of the History of Immigration.
The Collège des Bernardins is a space for free exchange that encourages the sharing of perspectives to deepen our understanding of the world and build a future that respects humanity.
A discussion moderated by Alexandre Wirth.
