Stéphane Bern SEASON 2022 - 202316h00, April 14, 2023

Historically yours brings together 3 characters classified X (but who have nothing pornographic): Malcolm Little who chose the nickname of Malcolm X to erase the slave past of his ancestors and the name remained associated, became, under this famous pseudonym, one of the figures of the struggle for the rights of African-Americans. Then, she too, it was in the United States that she was born, but it was in France that she lived: the Parisian socialite Virginie Gautreau, alias "Madame X" on a painting by the painter John Singer Sargent who represented her, without suspecting that it would cause a real uproar... forcing him to erase the identity of his model! And an American rapper who, at just 24 years old, revolutionizes the world of rap by assuming and claiming his homosexuality: Lil Nas X.

Juliette Galonnier, teacher-researcher at Sciences Po Paris
Author of a thesis in sociology on conversions to Islam in France and the United States.
