Description
From the outset, the period covered by Daniel Gay on the history of Blacks in Quebec is surprising. Who are these Blacks and where do they come from? What are their main characteristics, their contributions to the formation of the Quebec people and the development of society? What is the nature of the links they form with the main institutions? How are they perceived by Quebec elites? These are all questions that Daniel Gay strives to answer through a sociohistorical analysis of Quebec, placed in an international context. The author's ambition is, on the one hand, to make Blacks in Quebec aware of their own history and, on the other hand, to present the little-known contributions of this community. Through this rigorous study, a long-shadowed aspect of Quebec history finally emerges. Has modern society evolved in its relations with Blacks or is it simply repeating the mistakes of the past? This work plants the first milestones of this reflection.
