This spring, Gilles Dossou-Gouin's latest book "La liberté d'expression dans la tradition des peuples noirs" was published in Canada.

Novelist, poet and human rights activist Dossou-Gouin is originally from Benin, and now a former ICORN Guest Writer of Molde City of Refuge. Before coming to Norway, he lived in exile in Senegal.

"The book focuses on a comparative analysis on freedom of expression between all black countries. It discusses the meaning of the right to free expression and the intersection between freedom of expression, tradition and other fundamental rights," says Dossou-Gouin. 

The book can be purchased here .
