N2  - "Dr. Amal Madibbo has taken us on a journey of multiple Blackness in this ground-breaking and judicious monograph Blacks and La Francophonie: Anti-Black Racism, Linguicism, and the Negotiation of Multiple Minority Identities. Viewed through the lens of historical sociology, critical race theory, and critical ethnography, she documents how particular intersectionalities work to disadvantage, and also empower Black people, in this case, Black Albertans who also share a Francophone identity. Thus, she provides insightful answers to the questions posed. [...]; Black Francophones are creating new communities of resistance in Alberta. They have redefined what it means to be Francophone, and they are also writing and shaping Black history. While White people have seen Blackness as a curse, Blacks themselves have seen it as a beautiful blessing. In putting Black Francophones under her scholarly lens and centring their voices, Madibbo gives visibility to this community by documenting the saliency of their struggles and victories."
