FREN 52 Elles viennent d’ailleurs : Women and Migration

Through a series of Francophone literary texts and films, this course examines how contemporary female writers, filmmakers and artists respond to the migration, immigration, and displacement of peoples today. From the written and the visual materials, students will consider how women such as Fatou Diome, Marie NDiaye, Kim Thúy among others address the range of critical issues and factors contributing to displacement, particularly under conditions of poverty, uneven development, competition for resources, political instability, violence, and natural disasters.

The course gives participants an opportunity to participate in current immigration debates whether it is the Syrian refugee crisis, the Mexican Border crisis, Haitian TPS status, the Haitian migrants’ mistreatment at the Texas border or the current Afghan relocation project.
