In my family, one of the last guardians of the genealogy is my grandmother Penda Diogo Sarr. She knows the heroic deeds of the ancestors and all the important names in the lineage. According to President and poet Senghor, the only dead man is the one whose name is no longer pronounced. She came to our house while my mother was on her deathbed and strong relationships developed between us.
This Word is threatened. In our family, we are the second generation to read and write. Who will carry on singing the praises of the lineage? In order to fight against the destruction of ancestors Word, I decided to switch from oral tradition to a videotaped tradition.
