1936-09: (Chapter 3 Opens: “A Pilgrimage”, the Chapter Opening with Epigraphs from Stéphane Martelly’s L’enfant Gazelle 2018 About a Mother Raising Her Daughter by the Feet Telling Her She Is a Gazelle Child Who Will Run and Get There, and from Edwidge Danticat’s Breath Eyes Memory 1998 About a Mother in the Night Asking “Ou Libéré? Are You Free My Daughter?”, the Chapter Titled “A Pilgrimage” Setting the Frame of Intergenerational Care Between Women as the Vehicle for Revolutionary Memory): Chapter 3, titled “A Pilgrimage,” opens with epigraphs from Stéphane Martelly’s L’enfant Gazelle (2018) about a mother raising her daughter by the feet, telling her she is a gazelle child who will run and get there, and from Edwidge Danticat’s Breath, Eyes, Memory (1998) about a mother in the night asking: “Ou libéré? Are you free, my daughter?” The epigraphs frame the chapter’s central concern: the intergenerational transfer of revolutionary memory between women, the question of freedom posed as a mother’s nightly whisper.
