Joby Valente AKA Marguerite Valentine Dersion was born in Martinique island and is recognized for her political commitment to decolonization and social justice.
A Un Apôtre Noir is a deep and churchy 'Afro Blues' track -sung in French- released shortly after Martin Luther King's killing (ca 1968) and describes him as a black Apostle.
It's backed with a nice Biguine (in Creole) this time reflecting Valente's social critique and sense of humor. At the time she was recording and playing with French West Indies revered musicians Georges Edouard Nouel or Camille Soprane!

Solid VG+ sleeve, has some dirt at back. Clean record, just has light crackling at start. Solid copy!
