Sylviane Diouf
Sylviane Anna Diouf is a historian and curator of the
African diaspora. She is a visiting scholar at the Center for the Study of Slavery and Justice at
Brown University and a member of the Scientific Committee of the
International Coalition of Sites of Conscience. In an interview she said her contributions as a social historian "may be the uncovering of essential stories and topics that were overlooked or negated, but which actually offer new insights into the experience of the African Diaspora. A scholar said my work re-shapes and re-directs our understanding of this history; it shifts our attention, corrects the historical record, and reveals hidden and forgotten voices."
