Diaspora – Aminata Diop-Johnson : « Donner de la visibilité aux auteurs africains »

PORTRAIT. Avec en perspective une capitale africaine, cette entrepreneure culturelle a déjà posé son Pavillon des lettres d’Afrique à Paris, Bruxelles et bientôt Genève.

Elle en a les yeux qui pétillent. C’est fréquent chez Aminata Diop-Johnson lorsqu’elle commence à parler des littératures africaines. Rien qu’à l’évocation de ses projets à venir, dont la seconde édition du Pavillon des lettres d’Afrique au sein du Salon du livre de Paris (du 16 au 19 mars 2018) et un peu avant la Foire du livre de Bruxelles (du 22 au 25 février 2018), cette femme toujours tirée à quatre épingles et joviale n’en dort plus, selon ses plus proches collaborateurs, tant sa passion est dévorante.

Le livre au cœur de l’engagement d’Aminata Diop-Johnson

Du haut de son mètre soixante-quinze, cheveux longs jusqu’aux épaules impeccablement lissés au fer, rouge à lèvres discret, petit chemisier, pantalon de tailleur, sans oublier ses éternels talons aiguilles, Aminata Diop-Johnson mène son monde depuis son téléphone mobile. Le petit objet collé à son oreille semble faire des miracles ! Les appels s’enchaînent parfois depuis l’autre bout de la Côte d’Ivoire, du Sénégal ou encore du Congo. Entre-temps, sous nos yeux, Aminata a aussi envoyé des e-mails en Belgique, un sms à ses enfants (elle a deux adolescents) pour surveiller leurs devoirs, et dispatcher le travail à ses collaborateurs. Il vaut mieux être bien accroché pour suivre le rythme fou que s’est imposé cette experte dans l’organisation de grands salons, passée par les boîtes françaises et internationales les plus prestigieuses. « Donnez-lui une idée et elle vous la transforme en évènement ! » témoigne une de ses meilleures amies.
