🇸🇳 To celebrate Black History Month by speaking French and watching good movies, let's take a moment to delve into the incredible work of Ousmane Sembène. Considered the father of African cinema, Sembène was a politically and socially engaged writer and filmmaker. He made powerful novels and films from the 1950s until his death in 2007. His legacy will live on for a long time. Join this week's conversations on https://www.frenchconversationgroup.com
