About Me

Hi there,

I'm a student in political sciences at Université Paris 8 Vincennes-Saint-Denis. and I'm the president of a non profit organisation there in Paris 8 which's called Indigo. Founded in 2012 by Stephane de Freitas, better known under his artist pseudonym SdF, the Indigo Cooperative is a non-profit organization law of 1901, developing social, cultural and artistic programs in the aim of inventing new ways of creating social bond.
Indigo stems from an artistic concept resulting in the harmonious mix of blue and red, colors that naturally oppose one another in our minds. Indigo’s social network embodies the translation of this concept in the heart of everyday interactions.

I'm also member of another Non-profit organisation called Eloquentia. Eloquentia is a speaking program, recognized by public interest, inviting youth to express their ideas and back up their values. The program is designed around eloquence competitions, job interview coaching, and public speaking workshops.
Eloquentia first germinated in the University Paris 8, in Seine-Saint-Denis, the youngest and often stigmatized department of France, to bring to light the wealth, talent and diverse ideas of the young generation. Today, our program is growing in the heart of many French Universities including Paris 13, Villateneuse (93), Paris 10 Nanterre (92), Grenoble (38) and le Havre (76).
The Indigo Cooperative, through the Eloquentia program’s actions, was asked in 2014, by the General Council of Seine-Saint-Denis, to conduct 2 educational programs with 80 middle schools in the department : the “Conseil Départemental des Collegians (CDC)” and the COP21 program.

More over, I’m writing a master’s dissertation about gender, race and social class in America during the segregation years and how art and music are a mirror of the impact of segregation in American society nowadays.

Interests

I'm interested in music, theater, cinema. I practice theater for about 10 days now, it's one of my favorite things in the world. Thanks to theater i can live as much as lives i want to, i can be one million persons. it's an amazing thing to play and make persons feels what you want them to.

My reasearch in gender race and social classes take me a lot of time but it's a very interesting topic event if it's sensitive and large. I love to talk about it with people i meet, and learn more from them, from their opinion on the subject.
