Description: This song is dedicated to the legendary heroine Aline Sitoe Diatta (1920-1944, from Cabrousse, Casamance). She was a powerful leader who fought against the French colonial power during World War II. They felt threatened and sent her to prison in Timbuktu in Mali, where she became ill and died, only 24 years old. Today she is a celebrated heroine in Senegal. Both the football stadium in Ziguinchor and the ferry that runs between Dakar and Ziguinchor are named after her.n nLyrics:nAline Sitoe Diat
