Extractions: Selected Topics ~ Idea 312 ~ 18 May 1995 There is much pressure from the rich countries for free world trade, because they have a distinct historic, economic, scientific and technological advantage to invade the poor countries with their products and advanced marketing and advertisement, often changing the traditional, more healthy, natural, better habits of these countries, where moreover advertisement is very cheap. The poor countries should raise the issue of free migrations, of the freedom of people to settle anywhere on our planet. People should claim this as a fundamental human right. Why only world free movement of goods, and no free movement of people? The United Nations must hold a world conference on the free movement, migration and settlement of all humans on this planet. It will have to be raised sooner or later. The sooner we do, the better. ~ Idea 557 ~ 18 January 1996 Since business was first to globalize itself world-wide, far beyond governments and religions, and since corporations are now for all practical purposes ruling the world, we should give them the opportunity, even request them to hold a World Conference on Proper Earth Government through the Free Market System The world business community should be asked to answer how they would take care of the above complaints of the Earth, of humanity, of the past and of the future, how they would provide for a well preserved planet and the well-being of all humanity, the five basic harmonies and the long-term evolution of the planet.

Metals mining is the number one toxic polluter in the United States, responsible for 96 percent of arsenic emissions and 76 percent of lead emissions.
Chapter 1 The people are negroid, with possibly a northern strain in some of the Tikar The Province now contains three divisions, namely Bamenda, wum and Nkambe. http://www.era.anthropology.ac.uk/Kaberry/Kaberry_text/ch1pt1.html
Extractions: BEFORE we examine the economy of Bamenda and its bearing on the position of women, a somewhat detailed account of the history, ethnic character and distribution of the peoples is necessary since very little information has been published. The total population of the Province as given in the Annual Report for 948 is 301,000; but this is estimated from figures for adult taxable males, the last census having been taken in 1931. The people are negroid, with possibly a northern strain in some of the Tikar tribes. They vary considerably in physique; but, in general, those of the uplands appear to be taller, wirier, and of better build than those of the forest, where malaria, filaria, yaws, goitre and elephantiasis are prevalent. Apart from the analysis of the Nkom language by the Rev. Father Bruens, very little linguistic research has been done in Bamenda. The Basel Mission has translated the New Testament into Bali, and the Roman Catholic Mission has made some study of the language of Nsaw and produced a catechism in Nkom. The languages of Bamenda have hitherto been classified as Benue-Cross River (or semi-Bantu) and the Tikar placed in the Bafumbum-Bansaw group. But, in a recent set of articles dealing with a reclassification of West African languages, Greenberg has suggested that Bali, Bafut and Ndob (and presumably this would be extended to the dialects spoken by other Tikar peoples in Bamenda) are Bantu. But a definitive classification must wait on further research, as well as the publication of the results of the linguistic field survey of the northern Bantu Borderland now being carried out from the French Cameroons.

Extractions: Buea Cameroon CODESRIA 10 th General Assembly, Kampala, Uganda, 8-12 December 2002 Introduction In the wake of the Beijing Conference on Women Rights, the old debate on the reality or myth of the marginalization of African women in politics since pre-colonial times resurfaced. Even where indigenous female political organizations existed, played important political roles, and had been highlighted by anthropologists who were struggling to understand traditional socio-political organization of African societies ( cf Henn 1978; Guyer 1984; Nkwi 1985; Ritzenthaler 1960; Wipper 1982; Kalb 1985), there is still the stubborn refusal among chauvinist academic circles that African women really matter or ever mattered. Attempts at re-evaluating their roles are interpreted as simple romanticization. This paper is not an excursion into the imbecility of verifying the marginal or worse still, absent role of women in politics. Every where today in Africa, the female educated elite are rising to ask for a fair power sharing formula with their counterparts to effectively participate in the development of our continent (OBar 1984; Onalenna 2001). But traditional female indigenous institutions continue to resurface, readjust and conquer space in the sphere of modern politics.
BUDGET PRIORITIES The African Canadian Legal Clinic (ACLC) is a notfor-profit legal service the African Canadian community including indigenous Canadian Black people, http://www.aclc.net/submissions/budget priority.html
Extractions: Fax: (416) 214-4748 About the African Canadian Legal Clinic (ACLC) The African Canadian Legal Clinic (ACLC) is a not-for-profit legal service agency which is part of the Ontario legal clinic system. It was established to address anti-Black racism and other forms of systemic and institutional discrimination in the justice system, education, employment, housing, health and other spheres of society. The ACLC's main strategy for carrying out its work is "test-case litigation". The ACLC also works as a community-based legal agency to address government policies and legislation which may have an impact on the African Canadian community. ACLC's Board and Committees are composed of representatives from diverse groups within the African Canadian community including indigenous Canadian Black people, people of recent immigration from the African continent (sometimes known as "Continental Africans"), and people from the Caribbean. The ACLC has been, and continues to be involved in issues of concern to the African Canadian and other racialized communities. For example, the ACLC was granted standing before the Coroner's Inquest into the shooting death of Ian Coley by police, and we have made submissions to the

Languages Of Gabon - Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia The indigenous languages are all Bantu languages, estimated to have come to Gabonabout promoted the study of French and discouraged African languages. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Languages_of_Gabon
Extractions: The official language of Gabon is French ; it is also the medium of instruction. Before World War II very few Gabonese learned French, nearly all of them working in either business or government administration. After the war, France worked for universal primary education in all of its African territories, and by the 1960-61 census showed that 47% of Gabonese over the age of fourteen spoke French, while 13% were literate in the language. By the 1990s, the literacy rate had risen to about 60%. A small percentage, several thousand in number, have had secondary or higher education and are extremely fluent in French. The indigenous languages are all Bantu languages , estimated to have come to Gabon about 2,000 years ago, and differentiated into about 40 languages. They are generally spoken but not written; while missionaries from the United States and France developed transcriptions for a number of languages based on the Latin alphabet starting in the , and translated the Bible into several of them, French colonial policy officially promoted the study of French and discouraged African languages. The languages continue to be transmitted through family and clan, and individuals in cities and other areas where multiple peoples come in contact may learn several Bantu languages.

Extractions: The Good Governance Observer A Publication of The Global Network for Good Governance (GNGG) Registration No 152/L/E.32/084/2000 Democracy Good Governance by George Mbella O nce upon a time, a wind of Change blew across the continent of Africa and implanted a growing demand for political participation and the involvement of the people in the choice of their leaders and decision-making. This change of attitude was owed to long years of political misrule, and of course, bad governance exemplified by personnalised political regimes and ruthless dictatorships that left most African states politically demobilised and economically decapacitated with a population ravaged by poverty, illiteracy and disease. This poverty amplified by economic crisis (and currency devaluation in some countries) provided a common platform for democratic change by the people. The struggle for democratisation in Africa was not only aimed at achieving political reforms but improving the living standards and social welfare of the African people. In other words, achieving the object of Good Governance.
