A video essay presenting an exploratory research about Black experiences within education.
Kreyolization: Resisting Assimilation Violences explores the violence of assimilation and strategies of Black resistance.

This video was screened at the Afroeuropeans Studies Conference (2019, Lisbon) and at the Symposium On the Matter of Blackness in Europe (2019, Los Angeles).
