EDITORS COMMENTS
Le Loyalisme Musulman; A bondoukou: La "Journee du Poilu" a Bondoukou (Cote d'Ivoire), 1916" is an intriguing photographic print depicting a lively reenactment of a Poulbot poster in Bondoukou, Cote d'Ivoire during the First World War. The exact creator of this image remains unknown, but it was published in "L'Illustration Tome CXLVII. La Guerre Janvier, Fevrier, Mars, Avril, Mai, Juin 1916," a French publication documenting the war. This evocative image captures the spirit of patriotism and loyalty among the Muslim population of Bondoukou towards the French forces during the First World War. The title "Journee du Poilu" translates to "Day of the Poilu," a term used to refer to French soldiers during this period. The children in the photograph, dressed in military uniforms and carrying French flags, symbolize the future generations who would carry on the legacy of this wartime bond between France and its African colonies. The original Poulbot poster, which served as the inspiration for this reenactment, was a powerful propaganda tool used by the French during the First World War to promote loyalty and support among their African colonies. The image of the children in military uniforms, along with the French flag, reinforces the message of unity and shared destiny between the French and the African people. The photograph offers a unique glimpse into the complex history of the First World War and its impact on Africa, specifically Cote d'Ivoire. It serves as a reminder of the intricate relationships that existed between European powers and their African colonies during this period and the enduring legacy of these connections. Despite the unknown creator, this photograph remains an essential piece of historical documentation that sheds light on the experiences of the African population during the First World War and their role in the larger global conflict.
