Squalid posted:Does anyone have suggestions for reading on France's colonial history in Sub-Saharan Africa? I can find a lot on the UK's colonies, BBC documentaries on decolonization, long wikipedia articles, detailed histories of individual countries etc., but I can hardly find anything on French Africa. Like for example this wikipedia article on Senegal hardly has anything, it skips straight the year 1902 to independence in 1960. I mean Senegal was a French colony for like 300 hundred years during which distinct Metis communities formed, but there's hardly anything approachable I can find on it. King Leopold's Ghost is about Belgian colonization, but the French pulled all the same bullshit.

I took a class on the post-colonial francophone world in college 10 years ago, but I don't remember much on Africa, just the Caribbean. Fanon worked in French government-run colonial hospitals before he became an author, I think peau noire masques blancs might have some good background info.

Cat Mattress posted:People have come up with using @ or x as a gender-neutral ending (I have no idea how they pronounce it, though). I've heard it pronounced as "Latinex" but it's criticized as anglicization too.

None of the first 6 EU countries have English as a commonly spoken language, but 3 have French, was English used at all in the 50s?
