Quelle que soit la longueur de la nuit

Also known as Dure lo que dure la noche, Jakkolwiek długa byłaby noc, Omar Blondin Diop, «La Cinese» e il Senegal

After being expelled from France for his subversive communist activities, the Senegalese Maoist activist and artist Omar Blondin Diop (1946-73) returned to Dakar, where he joined the Fundamental Institute of Black Africa and, with his incendiary speeches against colonialism, challenged the power embodied by Léopold Sédar Senghor, president of Senegal.
