Axelle Jah Njiké was born in Cameroon and has lived in Paris since childhood. Afropean author, podcaster, columnist and pagan feminist activist, she created the podcasts “Me My Sex and I®”, “The girl on the sofa” and “I am black and I don’t like Beyoncé”, devoted to the experiences of Afro-descendant women from an intimate as well as a collective point of view. “Diary of a (Black) Feminist” is her first book.
“Axelle Jah Njiké recounts here her life as an Afropean, girl, woman who became a mother, having suffered from sexual and educational violence in childhood. Reclaiming the history of her family, she confronts the injunctions that have weighed and still weigh on women.But it is also the story of an awakening, of an emancipation through literature and sexuality, where the intimate joins the eminently political.
A shocking book that will count as one of the great feminist intimate stories.” (Presentation of editions Au Diable Vauvert)
