10 pages4. Who Do the Dead Belong to? Considering the (In)Visibility of Death as an Outsider in France
- Norah Kiereri (author)
Chapter of: Migrant Academics’ Narratives of Precarity and Resilience in Europe (pp. 33–42)
At the height of the Covid19 pandemic, I began to consider how the activities of mourning and burying the dead were visible and invisible in Kenya and in France. My own experience of death brought me face to face with my anxieties and expectations of the (in)visibility of death as a Kenyan living in Kenya and as a Kenyan studying and working in France.
