Extractions: W hen I arrived in Mexico about two decades ago to begin research on the early history of Africans and their descendants there, a young student politely told me that I was embarking on a wild goose chase. Mexico had never imported slaves from Africa, he said, fully certain that the nation's peoples of African descent were relatively recent arrivals. This lack of knowledge about Mexico's African peoples has not changed much over time. A short while ago a Mexican engineer, himself of African descent, told me adamantly that the country's blacks were the descendants of escaped slaves from North America and Cuba. These fugitives, he proudly proclaimed, had sought and found sanctuary in free Mexico. The historical record, of course, tells another story. In the sixteenth century, New Spainas Mexico was then calledprobably had more enslaved Africans than any other colony in the Western Hemisphere. Blacks were present as slaves of the Spaniards as early as the 1520s. Over the approximately three hundred years it lasted, the slave trade brought about 200,000 Africans to the colony. Many blacks were born in Mexico and followed their parents into slavery. Not until 1829 was the institution abolished by the leaders of the newly independent nation.

Extractions: Peruvian Coastal dance As in other parts of the Americas, Africans arrived in Peru as part of the Spanish trade between the 16th and the 19th centuries. Their labor built coastal cities and enriched valley farms; their contribution to music and dance created a fusion known as The styles of Afro-Peruvian dance to be presented in People Like Me are traditional festejo and zapateo . These styles come from "El Carmen," a village located in the Chincha province south of Lima, in the coastal region. This is a distinct region where the pronounced legacy of African slaves adds a unique flavor to the ever present Spanish and indigenous heritage. Though in many parts of the Americas indigenous peoples were decimated, Peruvian indigenous culture continues to be a strong presence in Peruvian life and art.

For two hundred years, 1440-1640, Portugal had a monopoly on the export of slaves from Africa. It is notable that they were also the last European country to abolish the institution - although, like France, it still continued to work former slaves as contract labourers, which they called libertos or engagés à temps . It is estimated that during the 4 1/2 centuries of the trans-Atlantic slave trade, Portugal was responsible for transporting over 4.5 million Africans (roughly 40% of the total). During the eighteenth century however, when the slave trade accounted for the transport of a staggering 6 million Africans, Britain was the worst transgressor - responsible for almost 2.5 million. (A fact often forgotten by those who regularly cite Britain's prime role in the abolition of the slave trade.)

Extractions: Print Home Archive Français Contact Us ... Links Web Article Among the resources for indigenous peoples in the United Nations system is the Indigenous Knowledge for Development Program of the World Bank's Africa Region. The Program, which partners with over a dozen organizations, was launched in 1998 to respond to government leaders and civil society who had called for the Bank and other donors to learn from local communities at the first Global Knowledge Conference held in Toronto in June 1997. Indigenous knowledge (IK) is local knowledge unique to every culture or society and is the basis for local decision-making and problem solving in areas including, but not limited to, agriculture, health care, food preparation, education and natural resource management. IK is tacit knowledge traditionally held by communities rather than individuals and is commonly embedded in community practices, institutions, relationships and rituals and therefore, difficult to codify. According to the Program, the importance of such knowledge is fourfold. First, it provides problem-solving strategies for local communities, especially the poor. Historically, indigenous peoples have been the poorest and most excluded populations in the world. The Bank notes that there is often a high correlation between poverty and being indigenous.
Extractions: by Keith W. Jones African people are incapable of migration. That is an idea that many scholars would still like to have us people of African descent believe. I find it disappointing that even today, as we transition to a new millennium, this concept is still being pushed, taught, and written about. The static African concept, as I call it, is implied in our literature, newspapers, and cinema, and is disseminated during television broadcasts. One possible result of this concept is that, being incapable of movement might be linked to being incapable of accomplishment. That is, if one cannot think well enough to move from one location to a better location, even though all of his or her muscles are fully functional, then how can one possibly think well enough to develop technology, which will make life easier for himself or herself. I believe that what is most psychologically damaging, though, for people of African descent, are the Eurocentric and ethnocentric falsehoods still disseminated in most of the textbooks used in schools today, by our children and young adults. Put another way, when African American children and young adults go to school, they still are taught and they still read about untruths regarding the lack of scientific, intellectual, and technological accomplishments made by people of African descent. These untruths are in addition to what these young people are learning about the so-called mental and intellectual inferiority of African peoples to other ethnic groups. However, I am getting ahead of myself.
