Join us in the Karim-Ouellet Park and discover with Webster the themes of identity, memory, and culture represented in the Lucien-Borne Community Center mural!
On the rear facade of the Lucien-Borne Community Center in Quebec City, the mural in tribute to the Afro-Quebecers who lived here from 1629 to 2021—from Olivier Le Jeune to Karim Ouellet—anchors their memory and their contribution to Quebec City in the urban space. Using the wall as a canvas, this work dialogues with the urban environment while exploring themes of identity, memory, and culture.
During this exceptional presentation, Webster will recount his experience on this artistic project, which was developed under his leadership and in collaboration with several artists.
The meeting point is in front of the mural in Parc Karim-Ouellet, next to the Lucien-Borne Community Center (100 Ch Ste-Foy, Quebec, QC G1R 1T1).
In case of bad weather, the presentation will be held in the Lucien-Borne community center (details will be sent to all registered participants).
This presentation will be given in English.
This presentation is held as part of the Shared Horizons—Visual Arts and Cultures, a project made possible thanks to the financial support of the Government of Canada.

Webster
Aly Ndiaye, aka Webster, was born and raised in the Limoilou district of Quebec City. With a Senegalese father and a Quebecois mother, he has always been proud of his origins and presents himself as a purebred metis SénéQueb. His passion for history led him to pursue university studies in this field. An activist, Webster is very involved socially. He regularly gives conferences on a multitude of subjects, including the one he has a predilection for: the history of the Afro-descendant presence and slavery in Quebec and Canada since the time of New France.
Webster is the author of a hip-hop writing manual, À l’Ombre des Feuilles (Québec Amérique, 2019), two children's books, Le Grain de Sable (Septentrion, 2019) and Charlotte et la fin de l’esclavage au Québec (Septentrion, 2025), and is the French translator of the book Contrat racial by Charles W. Mills (Mémoire d’encrier, 2023).
Since 2023, he has represented the Quebec province on the Historic Sites and Monuments Board of Canada.
