Extractions: AFRICAN THEOLOGY AND THE STATUS OF WOMEN IN AFRICA [a work in progress] Presented to the Canadian Theological Society May 25, 2001 by Ian D. Ritchie, Ph.D. St. John's Anglican Church, 41 Church St., Kingston, ON., K7M 1H2 The paper assesses the role played by African theologians in advancing the status of women in Africa. The perception (common in western church circles) of the African church as a bastion of conservatism and patriarchy will be examined critically. Starting with a brief overview of gender in precolonial Africa, moving to an analysis of the influence of mission Christianity and the African Initiated Churches, the paper concludes with an evaluation of the influence of African theologians. The conclusion that Christianity may be moving African women towards equality more rapidly than in western societies speaks of a positive relationship between academic theology, church and society.[ An earlier version of this article formed a chapter of the author's 1993 doctoral dissertation, African Theology and Social Change.

(132.7 cm) Gift of Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Hanes, 1979 Egyptians believed that the dead had to cross a stretch of water before they could achieve resurrection in the afterlife. In the Middle Kingdom, tombs were provided with models of boats to ensure that the deceased had transportation for the journey. This round-bottomed boat with prow and stern in the shape of stylized papyrus echoes the form of actual papyriform boats used on the Nile. It is steered by the helmsman with two steering-oars suspended at the stern. The craft was propelled by a broad sail (now missing) held by rigging, some of which survives intact, and attended by two sailors and four rowers. A pilot at the prow surveys the river ahead. The deceased, dressed in a close-fitting white garment, sits under a canopy with a curved roof as he impassively watches his progress toward the afterlife.

The imposition of colonial boundaries and governmental systems gives rise to developing national consciousness among many Central Africans, inspiring movements to achieve political independence and reclaim indigenous African identity, such as Mobuto Sese Seko's "authenticity" campaign and Tshibumba Kanda Matulu's series of paintings on Congolese history. In what is today the Democratic Republic of Congo, a ritual expert ( nganga ) and the Yombe artist known today as the Chiloango River Master collaborate on the creation of a corpus of distinctive minkisi , or monumental power figures, called Mangaaka. Used by diviners to consult the spiritual realm for solutions to earthly crises, these works are characterized by their massive scale, naturalistic appearance, and intricately carved representations of knotted fiber headgear. The White Fathers, a Catholic missionary group organized to seek conversions in non-Christian areas of Africa, is established in the southeastern Congo. Originally seeking to carve out an independent "Christian Kingdom" within territory largely inhabited by Tabwa and related peoples, the White Fathers sponsor missionary schools and produce dictionaries, grammars, and a translation of the Bible in the local KiTabwa language. After 1900, as control over the Belgian Free State is consolidated and ultimately transferred to the Belgian republican government, the White Fathers abandon territorial aspirations and focus on conversion. Large numbers of indigenous religious sculpture as well as trees and stones associated with earth spirit sites are destroyed, while others are confiscated and sent to White Fathers headquarters in Belgium and Rome.

Extractions: Current issues: Marxist MPLA troops invaded Cabinda via Point Noire in 11 November 1975. Cabinda was a Portuguese Protectorate since the signing of the Treaty of Simulambuco in 1885, and became known as the Portuguese Congo. Marxist MPLA troops from Angola are still occupying Cabinda. The American Oil Company Chevron is participating along side the invaders in raping and murdering the Cabindan people. We live in misery because of the greed of an American Oil Company, acting like this America will certainly make a lot of friends in Africa. The Republic of Cabinda was never legally integrated into angola after the end of the portuguese presence in 1975.

Some commentators have interpreted these styles as an accommodation to the Islamic domination of the area, but this is probably not an adequate explanation since Islam in West Africa has either merely tolerated or actually destroyed such traditions while exerting other influences.

Extractions: Felix Banda The purpose of this paper is to critically evaluate, generally, the classification of languages in Africa. The focus of the paper is the classification of languages in Zambia, but it also draws examples from Malawi, particularly regarding Chinyanja and Chitumbuka. The gist of the paper is to argue that the classifications of languages are inadequate because they do not show the relative relationship or affinity between the languages.
