Gesticulated lecture: I have to tell you!

Part personal memoir, part rallying cry, Awa takes the stage to weave tales of resilience, heritage, and the power of connection. It is an raw and melodic experience that turns individual history into a collective call for real social change.

Centre social le Pari's des faubourgs (Paris 10th)

About

I have to tell you! From intergenerational bonds to collective power.

Dive into the story of Awa as she shares her journey, from her mother's arrival in France to the challenges of her childhood and those linked to her social commitment. She explores the common thread of intergenerational bonds.

Throughout this gesticulated lecture, where Awa's singing and storytelling blend harmoniously, you will discover a story of mother-daughter transmission, quest, and transformation.

This lecture, through a kaleidoscope of emotions, invites you to reflect on themes such as immigration, identity, precariousness, racism, social work, as well as disability and caregiving.

Every gesture and every word tells a story of resistance, hope, and solidarity to inspire and celebrate the strength of liberated speech.

Because telling a story is already a way to initiate change!
