What does the urban (post)colonial condition sound like ? To what extent and how is
France's colonial history audible today on the streets, specifically in the Parisian
quartiers populaires? Musical and sonic production has long been entangled with social
movements in France and its overseas territories, and genres such as hip hop and raï
have been closely associated with the urban spaces of Paris's racialized neighborhoods
and with political resistance. This Element refines and extends these analyses up
to contemporary anti-racist and environmental struggles. Its novelty lies in telling
these narratives from the perspective of the urban field recordist, reinventing the
bourgeois figure of the flâneur as a feminist-decolonial activist and configuring
listening as an expressly spatial practice of mapping the city. The discrete binaural
microphones tucked in her ears capture everything from Franco-Maghrebi musical dissent
through the sounds of police brutality and carceral capitalism to transcolonial reverberations
with struggles elsewhere--back cover
