Entretien avec Zia Haider Rahman: In the Light of What We Know
par Zia Haider Rahman,
publié le 27/03/2017
- Zia Haider Rahman, originaire du Bangladesh, écrit son premier roman, In the Light of What We Know, après une carrière sur Wall Street et auprès de l’ONU. Une plume sobre et fluide mène le lecteur du Bangladesh rural à New York et aux campements de l’ONU en Afghanistan. Les deux personnages principaux, vivant chacun des décalages culturels entre leurs origines et le monde qu’ils habitent, semblent marqués par le constat qu’un exilé pourrait finalement n’être « qu’un immigré avec une bibliothèque ». Le 26 mai 2016, à l'occasion des Assises Internationales du Roman, Zia Haider Rahman a accepté de nous parler de son roman. En résulte un entretien passionnant qui couvre des sujets aussi variés que les mathématiques, l'industrie de l'édition, le passé colonial de la Grande-Bretagne et la lutte des classes.

Présentation de Come Back Africa (Lionel Rogosin, 1959, US 82 minutes)
par Monique Peyriere,
publié le 05/11/2014
- Après avoir réalisé un film sur les sans-abris aux Etats-Unis, Lionel Rogosin part avec une équipe de tournage en Afrique du Sud en déclarant aux autorités locales qu’il veut produire un documentaire sur la musique. Filmé clandestinement par un réalisateur américain blanc dans Sophiatown, un township noir de Johannesburg, Come Back Africa nous montre la vie des communautés noires sous l’apartheid. Entres brimades et défiance, le film de Lionel Rogosin expose les relations blancs/noirs dans l’Afrique du Sud des années 50. Les militants y jouent leur propre rôle dans un scénario de fiction qui nous invite à découvrir le ghetto au travers du regard d’un nouvel arrivant, Zacharia. Les images ont pu sortir d'Afrique du Sud pour être montées aux Etats-Unis puis diffusées dans le monde entier ; c’est un film politique, le premier à dénoncer l’Apartheid.

The gun control debate in the US
par James B. Jacobs, Claire Richard,
publié le 08/04/2014
- I consider myself a gun control skeptic. I do not believe, at this point in our history, with 300 millions firearms in private hands, and a constitutional right to keep and bear arms, and a political situation in which there is a very very small number of politicians who are willing to take a strong position on firearms, that there is a serious potential for regulatory controls. I don’t think that will happen. There is no magic bullet, if you can excuse the phrase, that will change American violence, but the good news is that it has been reduced substantially over the last 25 years....

Remembering 9/11 - Politics of Memory
par Marita Sturken, Claire Richard,
publié le 31/03/2014
- One of the reasons I was interested in trying to unpack the meanings of kitsch memory culture, say for instance in relationship to 9/11, is precisely the ways in which it creates this culture of comfort, that allows us to feel reassured. And that allows us to not confront the larger questions, about the project of American empire, about the project of national identity, about our priorities and our values as a nation, and about the kind of sacrifices that we have demanded on those serving in the armed forces, and all of the ways in which many families and many communities were really devastated by the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan...

The Young Lords
par Johanna Fernandez, Claire Richard,
publié le 22/01/2013
-
The Young Lords were the children of the first large wave of Puerto Rican migration to the North East of the United States, in cities like New York, Chicago, Philadelphia and Hartford.
The Young Lords was begun not in New York, interestingly enough, but in Chicago. And it was initiated by the efforts of the leader of the Young Lords, who initially in Chicago had been a gang. Cha Cha Jimenez, who was the leader of that gang, worked with a leader of the Black Panther Party, Fred Hampton, to transform this gang into a political organization.

Video game theory
par Liel Leibovtiz, Claire Richard,
publié le 05/12/2012
-
TV requires you to interpret, to find meaning, to reject meaning, to make up new meaning, to negociate. Video games aren’t like that. Video games require you to do something else. You turn on a video game, and immediately you exist in three separate forms : you are that self on the couch, sitting in the physical space, watching the TV, holding the remote in your hand, you are the avatar on the screen, the character which you control and manipulate, and you’re a sort of third entity, an amalgamation of the two of you, of real and unreal, person and avatar, of gamer and character.
