Viewpoint
With Jade Almeida, co-founder and director of Harambec and lecturer
Wednesday, February 18, 2026, at 5:30 p.m.
Originally from Guadeloupe, Jade Almeida completed a PhD in Sociology under the supervision of Sirma Bilge. Her dissertation focuses on Black women who love women as a site of resistance to intersecting power relations. As a content creator, she shares training on her website around issues related to anti-racist, anti-imperialist, and anti-carceral struggles, among others. In 2023, she co-founded Harambec—a revival of the Black feminist collective—alongside Pauline Lomami and Marlihan Lopez, and has served as its director since 2024. She teaches sociology, social work, and sexology as a lecturer at several universities, including the Université du Québec à Montréal, the Université du Québec en Outaouais, and Concordia University. Outside of all that, her passions include eating … and stopping her rabbit from eating her books.
This activity include admission to the exhibition. We encourage you to book in advance, as space is limited!
