Women as Witnesses: Photography and the Algerian Revolution

About this event

Women drove the Algerian Revolution (1954–62) as combatants, nurses, and photographers on the frontlines, yet their role remains largely overlooked. Join us at ICP for a conversation led by Maura McCreight, PhD, that examines the women who shaped the history of the Algerian War, with a special focus on the late Elaine Mokhtefi, an American-born activist who became a celebrated heroine of the revolution.
