Abstract: In this retelling, it is Portugal not Spain that drives the action, and the events of 1492 would not have been possible without those of 1471 - when the Portuguese discovered gold in West Africa and began work on a fort at Elmi-na. By starting the story in Africa, French hopes to combat a "centuries-long process of diminishment, trivialization, and erasure of Africans and people of African descent from the story of the modern world.".
