Dakar, Senegal Dear Babacar Faye: We are pleased to inform you that your paper proposal “Pouring Some Cream in the Strong Traditional Coffee: Why did Frantz Fanon Silence the Algerian Islamic Anti-colonial Tradition?” has been accepted for the Annual Symposium of The Dakar Institute of African Studies “Rethinking Africa in the Twenty First Century," to be held 3-4 July 2015, in collaboration with the Université Cheikh Anta Diop and the West African Research Center. Please note you will have 20 minutes to present or to read your paper. Since the conference will be bilingual (in English and French), we ask that you send us a copy of your presentation no later than two weeks before the conference. We will share more details of the conference program in a few weeks. We expect all participants to cover their own travel, accommodation and other incidental expenses. We encourage you to ask for travel support from your host institution or any other relevant agencies. We have provided below information about possible accommodation. Please note that less than 40% of the submissions were accepted for presentation, we therefore ask that you confirm or decline your participation within the next week so that we can accommodate those who have been placed on the waiting list. Should you have any further inquires about the conference, please do not hesitate to contact us at: [email protected]. We expect this to be an interesting and productive symposium and we look forward to receiving you at The Dakar Institute.
