Thiès · 1960 · citedGod's Bits of Wood
Ousmane Sembène
The long railway strike of 1947-48 seen from the line itself. The workshops of Thiès stop, and from there the walkout runs west to the capital and port at Dakar and east along the track to Bamako. When the men are starved back toward defeat, the women take up the fight and march the road from Thiès to Dakar. The map holds the western Senegal stretch of that strike.
