EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in history as Sengalese troops march in formation at St. Raphael, France, during the First World War in June 1916. The image offers a poignant glimpse into the experiences of colonial soldiers who served in the French army during this global conflict. The troops, dressed in their military uniforms and armed with rifles, are seen advancing steadily, their determined expressions reflecting the unwavering resolve of the men who left their homes in West Africa to fight for the French cause. The rugged terrain of the French Riviera, with its rocky cliffs and scrubby vegetation, provides a stark contrast to the lush, tropical landscapes of their native lands. The First World War marked a significant turning point in the history of colonial military participation in European conflicts. The French colonial forces, including those from Senegal, played a crucial role in the war effort, particularly on the Western Front. This photograph serves as a testament to their bravery and sacrifice, as they marched towards an uncertain future, leaving behind their families and communities to defend a country that was not their own. The image also underscores the complex and often overlooked role of colonial soldiers in the larger narrative of the First World War. By showcasing the Sengalese troops on the march, this photograph challenges simplistic narratives of the war as a purely European conflict and highlights the global dimensions of the conflict. This photograph is an important historical record of a pivotal moment in the history of both France and Senegal, and serves as a reminder of the far-reaching impact of the First World War on the lives of soldiers and civilians around the world.
