To Guide Entry Introduction The September 11 World Trade Center tragedy sparked many different views across America. More than anything else, it reminded us that many of our ancestors hailed from cultures found throughout the world, that perhaps we have not taken time to truly learn about and respect diverse cultures within our midst. Perhaps we have been too disconnected. If we were to canvass America's population, we would find that at some point our ancestries are rooted in Europe, Africa, Asia, South America, and beyond. Imagine taking a fun-filled journey through storytelling and research to explore those countries of origin, experiencing the terrain, the people and the way they adapt to their geographic surroundings. Perhaps despite recognizing the obvious diversity between cultures, we would make a fascinating discovery: we're not so different after all. We are in fact connected.

The territory that lies between the Sahara Desert and the tropical rain forest is the home of a variety of peoples. Between Senegal and Gambia live the Wolor and Tukulor, while between Gambia and the River Niger Valley live the Soninke, Mandigo, Khran, Tuareg, Ashanti, Banbara, and Djula. The Songhai dominate the middle Niger area, and the Masai inhabit the Upper Volta basin. Across the river in what is presently northwestern and north-central Nigeria live the Hausa-Fulani, while the Kanuri live in the northeast. Further south and spreading toward the east one finds the Igbo, Yoruba, Gikuyu, Luo, Shona, Ndebele, Xhosa, Bantu, Zulu, etc. To the north of the Sahara lies Egypt and the Maghredb region, which are peopled by African Arabs and Berbers.

Contents Previous Next 8 Abidjan: From the public making of a modern city to urban management of a metropolis Alain Dubresson Abstract Introduction With probably more than 2.5 million inhabitants in 1994 (there were 1,934,000 at the 1988 census and the annual growth rate between 1984 and 1988 was 4.2 per cent), Abidjan is the second- or third-largest West African city after Lagos, and perhaps Ibadan, and has all the characteristics of a metropolis. The city hosts more than one-fifth of Côte d'Ivoire's total population, who came in successive waves of migration from every region of the country, as well as from neighbouring states. It is both an inheritance from the colonial past and an economic centre, which has been dynamized by basic development opportunities based on integration into the global market. These opportunities, which have influenced both the settlement's dynamics and the concentration of economic activities, have had a considerable impact on the urban structure and organization. The circumstances and the results are unique in West Africa. The Abidjan conurbation From colonial stopover to economic centre Inherited from the colonial past: Early involvement in the international division of labour To understand the Abidjan phenomenon, this gathering of people, investments, capital, and assets, it is necessary to recall, however briefly, its colonial past, because the emergence of this urban area is linked to the forging of a tool in the colonial system of exchange, as a means to subordinate the colonial periphery to the needs of the colonial power (Antoine et al., 1987). It derives from the search for a healthy site where Europeans could be safe from the yellow fever and malaria that decimated them, haunting the colonial administration and justifying a "hygienistic" urbanization pattern, which has had a durable imprint on the urban structure.

The Bamana In the Mopti and San district, the Bamana carve and costume marionettes used in performances of burlesque and comedies. What may at one time have been sacred rites, have now been turned into comic performances (Leuzinger 1960, p. 77) Older Bamana puppets feature a crudely sculpted face with sharply defined nose; moveable arms and legs are lifted sideways on strings. The clothes are mostly rags or cloaks made of twisted fiber (Wassing 1968, p 221-222). Neighboring Marka marionettes have heads reminiscent of the sheet metal decorated initiation masks. A quite remarkable Pelican puppet of the Bozo people can be found in the Girard Collection at the Museum of International Folk Art (Glassie 1989, p249). Used for the Pelican dance, the brightly painted wood and cloth puppet borrows elements from the famed chi wara headdress of their neighbors, the Bamana. Since the Bozo are all Muslims, this puppet and dance has no religious significance to them. From the appearance, it represents the male buck

City of Hialeah , 113 S.Ct. 2217, 1993). The Spiritual Baptists are an international religious movement with congregations in St. Vincent (where some of their followers claim the faith originated), Trinidad and Tobago, Grenada, Guyana, Venezuela, Toronto, Los Angeles, and New York City. Membership is predominantly black, but in recent years congregations in Trinidad have attracted membership among wealthy East Indians and Chinese. A central ritual among the Spiritual Baptists is the mourning rite . This is an elaborate ceremony involving fasting, lying on a dirt floor, and other deprivations. A major component of the mourning rite is to discover one's true rank within the church hierarchy. A critical issue in the study of Caribbean religions is the selection of a unit of analysis. Because syncretism plays such a prominent role in the development of religions in the region, it is often difficult to separate indigenous and foreign elements. Because there has been so much outreach, it is often difficult to discover the "true" origin of any single religious group. Because most of these religions lack a denominational chain of command, one cannot make statements about them as one might make statements about the Roman Catholic Church or Presbyterianism. The most accurate assessments refer to individual congregations and their leaders. To examine movements such as Rastafarianism, Santeria, voodoo, or the Spiritual Baptists as if they were unified denominations on the European and North American model is to present an overly coherent picture of an incredibly fragmented and volatile religious situation.

Encompasses present-day Gambia, Guinea, Mali, Senegal, Burkina Faso, Mauritania, Niger, and eastern Chad See also Central Africa Eastern Africa Guinea Coast , and Southern Africa Jenne and Timbuktu . By the end of the century, Senegal emerges as France's most productive and populous colony, with important mercantile centers located at Dakar and Saint-Louis along the coast. Building on Islamic Fulani The Mossi kingdoms of Yatenga and Ouagadougou, in what is today Burkina Faso, disintegrate. The agrarian Lobi peoples migrate into the Upper Volta region from present-day Ghana. Due to the British- and French-enforced ban on the international slave trade, slave exports in the region of Senegambia (present-day Senegal and the Gambia) are replaced by local products such as gum, gold, hides, ivory, beeswax, and groundnuts. By the 1830s, the average annual value of gum exports is five times what the slave trade was at its peak. Political stability resulting from the establishment of Islamic states in the Futa Jallon region allows Sudanic peoples access to the West African coast in Senegambia and what is today Guinea and Guinea-Bissau, influencing coastal peoples such as the Baga and Nalu. Sculptural forms and styles associated with inland cultures are integrated into the artistic practices of local peoples. Reflecting the presence of foreign populations are masks such as dimba created by the Baga and Nalu peoples that appear to represent Fulbe women originating from the Futa Jallon area. Other works by Baga and Nalu sculptors exhibit stylistic elements associated with Bamana art in present-day Mali such as horizontally oriented masks representing composites of animal forms.

Jobs Ashwell, A. Bobo-Mrubata, P. (1998) Roots 16, p 24-26 Introduction The National Botanical Institute in South Africa is a state-funded statutory organisation responsible for botanical gardens, herbaria, botanical research and environmental education programmes in five of the nine provinces of South Africa. In Cape Town, the Kirstenbosch Outreach Greening Programme (part of NBI) was formally initiated in April 1997 with the appointment of Phumla Bobo-Mrubata as outreach horticulturist. The programme aims to empower the community with horticultural skills, to improve the quality of life and to conserve and promote the environment for the benefit of all communities in South Africa, through training and greening programmes. Previous attempts to support community greening had been ad hoc and not very effective. Responsibility for implementing the programme had fallen between two departments. The education department had excellent contact with schools but lacked the expertise or resources to establish gardens. The horticulture staff supported the need for outreach but had neither the time nor institutional support to participate. Thus support of school and community gardens was sporadic, lacking coordination, planning and evaluation, and tended to undermine rather than strengthen the relationship between the departments. Past programmes had been well meaning, but most had been "events" rather than processes, with little follow-up and support.
