"And who will remember us?"

A podcast on the Pieds-noirs

Several hundred returnees from Algeria (pieds-noirs, harkis, sons of harkis and veterans of Algeria) demonstrated on May 13, 2008 in Marseilles to demand "official recognition by France of its responsibility in the dramas and suffering" that this population has suffered.

Tribute to a disappearing community, this series of a dozen episodes aims to help the Pieds-noirs to transmit.

It questions the vulnerability of exiles and exile as a founding act, questions of identity, invisibility and integration, as well as the work of memory.

Created and produced by Nicole Guidicelli, independent author, this podcast is available on all listening and downloading platforms throughout 2022, the year of commemoration of the 60th anniversary of the end of the Algerian war.
