The 80th Anniversary of the Liberation of Paris offers an opportunity to explore the discrepancy between the race-based mythologies around second world war and black involvement in the war and what that tells us about Europe as a whole and how black people's presence here is misunderstood. How would conversations about responsibility, obligation, entitlement, sacrifice, patriotism, immigration, integration, welfare, equality and justice be understood when it applied to black people if their contributions to the war were fully acknowledged. I intend to highlight these issues with specific reference to the decision to ensure only white French troops could be seen to liberate Paris and the scene, the day after the Liberation, in which a Gabonese soldier, George Dukson, effectively photobombs General De Gaulle as he parades along the Champs Elysee.
