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.

  1. Hey I am so excited I found your blog, I really found you by error,
    while I was browsing on Aol for something else, Anyhow I am here
    now and would just like to say kudos for a incredible post and a all
    round enjoyable blog (I also love the theme/design), I

  2. I precisely wanted to thank you so much again. I do not know what I would have achieved in the absence of the opinions shared by you about my area. It was actually the troublesome scenario in my position, but looking at a skilled mode you resolved the issue made me to cry for happiness. Now i am happy for the service and then trust you really know what an amazing job you have been accomplishing teaching many people thru your web page. I’m certain you have never encountered any of us.

  3. This is getting a bit more subjective, but I much prefer the Zune Marketplace. The interface is colorful, has more flair, and some cool features like ‘Mixview’ that let you quickly see related albums, songs, or other users related to what you’re listening to. Clicking on one of those will center on that item, and another set of “neighbors” will come into view, allowing you to navigate around exploring by similar artists, songs, or users. Speaking of users, the Zune “Social” is also great fun, letting you find others with shared tastes and becoming friends with them. You then can listen to a playlist created based on an amalgamation of what all your friends are listening to, which is also enjoyable. Those concerned with privacy will be relieved to know you can prevent the public from seeing your personal listening habits if you so choose.

  4. Zune and iPod: Most americans assess the Zune in the direction of the Contact, however as soon as viewing how slender and amazingly little and light it is, I take it in direction of be a fairly special hybrid that combines characteristics of each the Contact and the Nano. It really is rather colorful and attractive OLED show is a little smaller than the touch screen, yet the player alone feels Extremely a little bit lesser and lighter. It weighs pertaining to 2/3 as considerably, and is drastically more compact within just width and height, though remaining basically a hair thicker.

  5. The Zune concentrates on being a Portable Media Player. Not a web browser. Not a game machine. Maybe in the future it’ll do even better in those areas, but for now it’s a fantastic way to organize and listen to your music and videos, and is without peer in that regard. The iPod’s strengths are its web browsing and apps. If those sound more compelling, perhaps it is your best choice.

  6. Sorry for the large assessment, however I’m truly loving the new Zune, and expect this, as well as the best testimonials some other people have prepared, will assistance you determine if it is really the immediately option for on your own.

  7. This is becoming a little bit additional subjective, yet I a great deal favor the Zune Market. The interface is colorful, has even further aptitude, and some cool functions together with ‘Mixview’ that let oneself all of a sudden see very similar albums, music, or other buyers identical toward what you’re listening toward. Clicking on a person of these will middle upon that merchandise, and another set of “neighbors” will come into watch, making it possible for you in direction of navigate close to looking into as a result of identical artists, music, or consumers. Talking of users, the Zune “Social” is far too exceptional exciting, making it possible for oneself come across other people with shared choices and getting to be mates with them. Your self then can pay attention in direction of a playlist produced based mostly on an amalgamation of what all your mates are listening in the direction of, which is too fascinating. These concerned with privateness will be relieved in the direction of recognize on your own can stop the public towards watching your unique listening routines if you thus pick out.

  8. If you’re still on the fence: grab your favorite earphones, head down to a Best Buy and ask to plug them into a Zune then an iPod and see which one sounds better to you, and which interface makes you smile more. Then you’ll know which is right for you.

  9. If you are nevertheless upon the fence: grab your favorite earphones, head down in direction of a Least complicated Obtain and talk to in the direction of plug them into a Zune then an iPod and perspective which just one appears far better in the direction of by yourself, and which interface generates oneself smile more. Then you’ll comprehend which is straight for yourself.

  10. I’ll gear this review to 2 types of people: current Zune owners who are considering an upgrade, and people trying to decide between a Zune and an iPod. (There are other players worth considering out there, like the Sony Walkman X, but I hope this gives you enough info to make an informed decision of the Zune vs players other than the iPod line as well.)

  11. Sorry for the huge review, but I’m really loving the new Zune, and hope this, as well as the excellent reviews some other people have written, will help you decide if it’s the right choice for you.

  12. Thank you for the article. I’ve truly thought about it before but never wanted to do anything about it. I do think because of my lack of complete understanding. Each day, however, I’m noticing more and more people getting frustrated because they think it is very complicated to understand. Exactly what really encouraged me personally again, however, seemed to be your rationale men and women would like to discuss the situation once they see their own friends commenting on the same thing. That is just how knowledge increases.

  13. The Zune concentrates on being a Portable Media Player. Not a web browser. Not a game machine. Maybe in the future it’ll do even better in those areas, but for now it’s a fantastic way to organize and listen to your music and videos, and is without peer in that regard.
