More than 10,000 automobiles were burned or stoned, hundreds of public buildings were vandalized or burned to the ground, and hundreds of people were injured. Charles Tshimanga, Didier Gondola, Peter J. Bloom, and a group of international scholars seek to understand the causes and consequences of these momentous events, while examining how the concept of Frenchness has been reshaped by the African diaspora in France and the colonial legacy. 606 $aAfrican diaspora$zFrance 606 $aNational characteristics, French 606 $aAfricans$zFrance$xSocial conditions 606 $aAfricans$zFrance$xEthnic identity 606 $aAfricans$zFrance$xAttitudes 606 $aAfricans$xCultural assimilation$zFrance 606 $aPopular culture$zFrance 607 $aFrance$xRace relations 607 $aFrance$xCivilization$xAfrican influences 615 0$aAfrican diaspora 615 0$aNational characteristics, French. 615 0$aAfricans$xSocial conditions. 615 0$aAfricans$xEthnic identity. 615 0$aAfricans$xAttitudes. 615 0$aAfricans$xCultural assimilation 615 0$aPopular culture 676 $a305.896/044 701 $aTshimanga$b Charles$01683326 701 $aGondola$b Ch.
