Kiratiana's Travel Guide to Black Paris
Wednesday, February 22nd: 6 pm at The Hotel Foster
Located at 2028 E. North Avenue, Milwaukee 53202
Kiratiana Freelon is a Harvard graduate who has traveled to over 25 different countries and has appeared on the Travel Channel as an expert on Paris! In her presentation with the Alliance Française, Kiratiana will transport the audience to "Black Paris" - the historical Paris of African-American expatriates and the contemporary Paris of the Africans and Caribbeans, who call the city home. She'll take you on a tour of La Goutte d'Or, the heart of modern Black Paris, show you how to coupe decale, and explain how Josephine Baker took over Paris in the twenties. You'll leave with an appreciation of Paris diversity and want to book a trip to explore it! Contact Anne, This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
