A sea of arms desperately extended empty hands... Desperate Mozambicans clamour for living bread Judith Kendall / UBS Destructive flood creates passion for spiritual comfort. Judy Kendall, a photojournalist working for the UBS in Maputo, accompanied workers on a distribution trip. They drove into Macia, not far from a spot where people had recently sought refuge by climbing trees. Some of those survivors had been rescued by helicopter, holding above their heads what in some cases was their only possession - a Bible. In Macia a Bible Society staff member started passing out Bibles from the relative safety of our truck. Within seconds, scores of flood victims screaming for Bibles had surrounded the vehicle. A sea of arms desperately extended empty hands, pleading for the sustenance of God's Word. "When one of them would receive the treasured gift, his face would light up and he would hoot with joy," Kendall reported. "Here, in his hands, was potential hope and healing."

Understanding Narrative The Praise Song Cultural Borrowing Objects of Power ... In and Out of Context The second part of this introductory essay consists of conversations between the authors. Bourgeois and Rodolitz have team-taught a web-based course on this subject for more than five years utilizing a dialogue medium that lends itself to immediacy and informality. Essays in the usual sense speak TO the reader; dialogue, however, allows the reader to participate, if only in an imaginary sense. Additionally, in the medium of dialogue, the evolution of thought is more apparent than in an edited essay. Often, the journey to a conclusion is as important as the conclusion itself. The reader is encouraged to join in this ongoing exploration. AB: Why don't we begin by considering a group of related objects, not necessarily related by culture but by function?

[TOP] Congo, Democratic Republic of the Rulers and Ruled http://workmall.com/wfb2001/congo_democratic_republic_of_the/congo_democratic_republic_of_the_history_rulers_and_ruled.html Source: The Library of Congress Country Studies < BACK TO HISTORY CONTENTS Unlike the societies of the rain-forest zone, where power was diffused among a group of elders or else centered upon a clan head or a village chief, the kingdoms of the southern savanna developed elaborate political structures, buttressed by the symbolic force of monarchy as well as by military force. Despite significant variations in the extent to which kings could be said to exercise an effective monopoly of power, relations between rulers and ruled were structured along hierarchical lines. Typically, power emanated from the central seat of authority to the outer provinces through the intermediation of appointed chiefs or local clan heads. Relations between center and periphery, however, were by no means free of ambiguity. Ensuring the loyalty of subordinate chiefs was the critical problem faced by African rulers throughout the southern savanna zone. The absence among the Luba of anything like positional succession or perpetual kinship proved a major handicap. The rise and fall of at least three different Luba dynasties in the seventeenth century testifies to the relative weakness of the Luba monarchy. Competition for control of the throne led to incessant civil wars, and by the late nineteenth century, the kingdom had become easy prey for the Chokwe (often spelled Cokwe) people.

The population of 28.5 million 995 estimate) is of Arab, Berber or mixed Arab-Berber ancestry. After 1962, the majority of the one million Europeans resident in Algeria left the country, and now s than one percent of the population is of European origin. French still enjoys a high status in Algeria. It is a major foreign language and is still widely read and spoken by many educated Algerians. National radio has a French station. The only TV channel is in Arabic with some French material. The majority of newspapers and magazines are in French, and French is widely used in higher education. Scientific material in school and university text books is almost exclusively in French, while Arabic is the medium of primary education. A law to Arabize local administration, business, politics and the media from July, 1992 was postponed indefinitely, because it was felt that the necessary conditions for adequate implementation of the law did not yet exist. English is also a recognized foreign language in Algeria and is gaining in prestige. Angola The People's Republic of Angola was formerly part of Portuguese West Africa. The country gained independence from Portugal in 1975 after 14 years of guerrilla warfare and a brutal civil war. The population in 1995 was estimated at 10 million. Because of the devastation and social unrest caused by sporadic warfare since independence, it is not easy to assess the language situation in Angola. It is estimated that there are more than 90 ethnic groups in Angola, and numerous local languages are spoken. Over 90 percent of the population speak Bantu languages. There are three major ethnolinguistic groups, the Ovimbundu (37 percent) in the central and southern regions, the Kimbundu (25 percent) in Luanda and the east, and the Kikongo (13 percent) in the north.

Aidi Hishaam D. Aidi is a researcher at the Middle East Institute at Columbia University. In October 1999, PBS aired TheWonders of the African World The Wonders of the African World was guided by peculiarly American conceptions of race and blackness, the most obvious being the “one-drop rule,” by which anyone deemed possessing so much as one drop of black blood was to be considered fully black and subjected to the legal system of racial domination known as Jim Crow. Asked by one critic why he considered ancient Egyptians more authentically African than modern Egyptians, Gates responds: “I suspect that if the average ancient Egyptian had shown up in Mississippi in 1950, they would have been flung into the back of the bus. And that is black enough for me.”

Ask the Scientists Professor Ricardo Duarte (l) and Marcos Pereira (r) Photo: WWF-Lee Poston Want to know how the conservationists got into their line of work? Planning a trip to Mozambique? Interested in helping the wildlife of the region? Or are you just dying to know how to get cool sunglasses like Peter Bechtel's? You sent us your questions and we did our best to get them answered for you and posted them below. Q: What effect does the Zimbabwe conflict concerning their wildlife poaching due to lawlessness have on Mozambique's poaching problem? Does the turmoil cross a porous border and spill into Mozambique? Also were the wild dog populations there decimated by the civil war and if not what is their status? Jim in Manassas, Va. Since the lawlessness in Zimbabwe is limited mainly to farm land, ranches and the Zambezi Valley, I do not think it has spilled over into Mozambique in a significant way if at all. As for the second part, wild dogs receive total legal protection in Mozambique. However, the outlook is not hopeful. Published reports indicate that there was a rapid decline in wild dog numbers after 1975, due to unregulated sport hunting, persecution by cattle farmers, and degradation of habitat. There are no records of disease. Wild dogs cross the border from Kruger National Park, South Africa in the south, and are also common in southern Tanzania to the north so, should conditions improve, Mozambique might be ideally placed for recolonization. The planned cross-border park envisaged joining Kruger to Mozambique will be of great benefit to wild dogs.

@import "/css/default.css"; Home Your account Current issue Archives ... Email to a friend Feature Inside Angola By Xan Smiley Jonas Savimbi (click for larger image) It was with some trepidation that I flew to the Angolan capital, Luanda, in September. The last time I had visited the country, in early 1976, I had been a journalist traveling with the "wrong" side. I had accompanied UNITA, the movement led by the bearded guerrilla intellectual Dr. Jonas Savimbi, a man usually called "charismatic" by his friends and a "South African puppet" by his enemies, who now rule in Luanda. In those days, the Portuguese ruling power had left with disgracefully indecent haste only a few months before. About 400,000 Portuguese whites had fled in panic (the exact figure is impossible to verify, estimates varying widely). Some of them, in desperate bitterness, smashed all that they left behind, even their washbasins. The huge country was left in an economic and political shambles. None of the three nationalist movements could agree upon which one should take over. In any event, the South Africans, having engaged in little military action of any ferocity, after a quick advance up the coastline eventually decided to leave; the Cubans stayed.
