Weaving archival and oral history research with a rich tapestry of black artistic expressions, Prof. Babana-Hampton's documentary "Choeurs Atlantiques/ Tales from the Atlantic Beyond" (2024) takes viewers to the French Caribbean islands of Martinique and Guadeloupe, mainland France, and Francophone West Africa (Senegal). It spotlights the creative and critical engagement of artists, historians and cultural actors in the francophone black diaspora with the legacies of the slave trade and of slavery as they intersect with their anti-racist activism and future visions of more just and equitable worlds.
