People of Africa Africa was the birthplace of the human species between 8 million and 5 million years ago. Today, the vast majority of its inhabitants are of indigenous origin. People across the continent are remarkably diverse by just about any measure: They speak a vast number of different languages, practice hundreds of distinct religions, live in a variety of types of dwellings, and engage in a wide range of economic activities. Over the centuries, peoples from other parts of the world have migrated to Africa and settled there. Historically, Arabs have been the most numerous immigrants. Starting in the 7th century ad , they crossed into North Africa from the Middle East, bringing the religion of Islam with them. A later movement of Arabs into East and Central Africa occurred in the 19th century. Europeans first settled in Africa in the mid-17th century near the Cape of Good Hope, at the southern end of the continent. More Europeans immigrated during the subsequent colonial period, particularly to present-day South Africa, Zimbabwe, and Algeria. South Asians also arrived during colonial times. Their descendants, often referred to as Indians, are found largely in Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania, and South Africa. A.

44. Introduction Today rasta is the expression of indigenous people fighting for their rights. African ganda intermediaries on the egalitarian, patrilocal Kiga http://www.uoguelph.ca/~terisatu/Counterplanning/c2.htm

Introduction: Rastafari, old and new "Anyone who knows anything of history knows that great social changes are impossible without the feminine ferment." Karl Marx "Having survived fifty years of social and religious intolerance, discrimination and harassment, the Rastafari movement is poised between becoming a part of world history, contributing to a universal culture, and being a passing phenomenon of the 20th century [Campbell 1987:234]." The perspective here is that the place of Rastafari in a universal culture, a new society, depends not only on it becoming more informed by class analysis, as Campbell contends, but also on the nurturing of the feminist ferment which here is called 'the new Rastafari.' Original Rastafari is uncompromising in its commitment to 'chant down Babylon,' the capitalist system. However, it is bound by the 'capitalist male deal.' Sexism is the key defining feature distinguishing the old rasta from the new. And it is also a fetter limiting the old rasta to a black nationalist accommodation with capitalism. In contrast, the defining feature of new Rastafari is the affirmation that class consciousness cannot exist without gender consciousness. This study considers gender and class relations in Caribbean and East African popular struggles during three crises of capitalism in the 20th century. It argues that with the growing internationalization of the world market, capital has sought to develop through establishing class alignments characterized by specific gender relations. Using the concept of the 'male deal' to examine gender dynamics during each crisis, the study concludes that the 'new Rastafari' is part of an international social movement of resistance to structural adjustment and affirmation of a new society which transcends the limitations of the male deal.

46. Uganda-One Man's Perspective The people of Uganda began to feel different except his own tribe the Luganda, the language of the ganda, is the most frequently used indigenous tongue. http://kabiza.com/Uganda-Country-Information.htm

Uganda Country Information (Uganda National Anthem) Uganda's Name The British Explorer who spent considerable time in Uganda trying to find the source of the Nile, which he did, recorded the following legend regarding the name Uganda. Many, many years ago there was a man who lived in Unyoro (a part of Uganda) whose name was Uganda. He was a poor man who hunted often in order to feed his family. He became so skilled and successful at hunting that he was able to also feed his neighbors and village. This caused him to rise in in stature and importance and Uganda was named Kimera, the first King of the Buganda Kingdom from which present Uganda gets its name. The Buganda tribe is still the largest in all of Uganda. Early Visitors and Settlers One has to go back a few years to find the earliest people to settle in Uganda, 50,000 years as archeologists have discovered in finding their tools in what is now Uganda. When one then reads that this part of Africa was discovered in the 19th century, one has to chuckle. What one could say is that "Europeans became aware of that part of the world, but for thousands of years others had been there. Various groups such as the Bunyoro, Ankole and Buganda people established kingdoms in the 14th to 16th Century. No outside contacts were made until the Arab Traders came from the island of Zanzibar and the Swhaili Coast (1830's) of present coast of Kenya and Tanzania made their way inland to Lake Victoria to trade items such as guns, cloth for ivory. Later that included the horrendous slave trade of whole villages that headed toward places in the East and also South America.

Sep 22, 2005 Home Photos Hotels Attractions ... Discussion Forum RESOURCE NAVIGATION About Uganda More Resources Location:: Home ... About Uganda ADVERTISEMENTS QUICK FACTS - PEOPLE Population Uganda's population is made up of a complex and diverse range of tribes. Lake Kyoga forms the northern boundary for the Bantu-speaking peoples, who dominate much of east, central and southern Africa. In Uganda they include the Buganda and several other tribes. In the north live the Lango and the Acholi, who speak Nilotic languages. To the east are the Teso and Karamojong, who are related to the Maasai and who also speak Nilotic languages. Pygmies live in the forests of the west. Each tribe has its musical history; songs are passed down from generation to generation. Ndigindi (lyre), entongoli (harp), amadinda (xylophone) and lukeme (thumb piano) are commonly played instruments. An Acholi, Okot p'Bitek, is one of Uganda's most famous writers of folklore, satirical poems and songs. His book Song of Lawino (1966) describes the stories told in Acholi songs. While about two-thirds of the population is Christian, the remaining third still practises animism or follows Islam. There were sizeable numbers of Sikhs and Hindus in the country until Asians were expelled in 1972, although many are now returning following an invitation from the president.

Home Page Index Literature Orthodox Links ... Member: Eastern Christian Link Swap ORTHODOX MISSION IN TROPICAL AFRICA by Stephen Hayes Originally published in Missionalia , the journal of the Southern African Missiological Society. Most histories of Christian mission in Africa, even those that are ostensibly ecumenical or pan-Christian, make little or no mention of Orthodox Church missions in Africa.1 There are several possible reasons for this, among them a bias on the part of many mission historians in favour of missions that were established before 1950 (Fiedler 1995:92). Most, though not all, Orthodox missions in tropical Africa began after that date. Another possible reason is that even those Orthodox missions that began before 1950 were not regarded as "mainstream" by the established Roman Catholic and Protestant missions, because they were identified with African independent church movements, which at that time were regarded by the Western churches as a problem for mission rather than a form of mission. The identification of Orthodoxy with the struggle against colonialism was also an embarrassment at that time. One Kenyan, writing of such attitudes, referred to "those who in their calculated ignorance misinterpret African-Christian-Orthodoxy as 'paganism'" (Lemopoulos 1993:123). Much of what has been published in English has been fragmentary, dealing with a particular place or period. Orthodox mission in tropical Africa has had its ups and downs, and the situation has changed rapidly, so that descriptions of what was happening at times in the past may not apply today. Orthodox mission today is characterised by a huge variety. Just about every mission method ever found in any part of the world, at any time in Christian history, can be found here. The purpose of this article, therefore, is to try to give a broad survey of Orthodox mission in this part of the world. It is primarily historical and descriptive, rather than an analysis of the theology of mission. Obviously such a survey must be lacking in detail, but it should at least provide the context for interpreting other more specialised studies.

Home Indigenous Africa Indigenous Legal Systems ....Indeed, Africa is one of the homes of advanced legal institutions. Perhaps the most famous of these institutions are the courts still found among the Bantu states of the southern third of the continent. ? Bohannan, 1968:199. Native Courts And Customary Laws Disputes arise in any family or society with regards to property, and African societies were no exception. To resolve these disputes, various mechanisms and institutions were created. However within the traditional African modus operandi, there was an additional unique dimension. Individual attachment to lineages and latent groups of solidarity always carried the potential risk of transforming personal disputes into broader group conflicts as was often the case among the Nuer and the Ganda and even in modern times. Here are two examples: On Jan 31, 1994, at the village of Nakpayili in Northern Ghana, a disagreement erupted between Konkonba and a Nanumba over the price of a guinea-fowl. In the ensuing heated exchange, the Konkomba man killed the Nanumba and his son. Other Konkombas joined in and an immediate massive Konkomba offensive was launched against the other ethnic groups and soon the Konkombas were fighting against the Nanumbas, Dagombas, Gonjas, Mamponsis and Chokosis. But the time the fighting subsided, over 1,200 people were dead, nearly 5,000 injured and over 10,000 displaced. Scores of villages were razed to the ground, including Lanja, Nakpakye, Lepusi, Pulnyasi, Nakayilli, Kpabe, Welensi and Chauba Bakpabe (Ghana Drum, March 1994; p.10).

DIALOGUE WITH AFRICAN TRADITIONAL RELIGION IN SUB-SAHARAN AFRICA: THE CHANGING ATTITUDE OF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH By Chidi Denis Isizoh 1. Introduction The Christianity that reached Africa, especially the sub-Saharan region, had undergone several stages of inculturation and re-organisation. It started in a Jewish environment and, right from the beginning, took a radical departure from Judaism. The various accounts of the life of Jesus Christ in the Bible show a movement away from the Jewish traditional observances and strict application of the legal and religious prescriptions of the Torah. This shift continued as the new religion was taken to lands within the Mediterranean region and beyond. The changing political situation of the people of the Ancient Near East from the rule of the Persians to that of the Egyptians, to the Syrians, and to the Romans, had a tremendous impact on the nascent Christian religion. Added to this were the effects of the intellectual currents in the first century A.D. and the religious movements organised by the Sadducees, the Pharisees, the Zealots, the Qumran community and the Essenes, which contributed immensely in shaping the worldview of the first Christians. Paul of Tarsus put an international and inter-cultural stamp on Christianity. As one of the earliest powerful announcers of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, he took his religion across the seas to the "whole world". In an unprecedented and daring Council of Jerusalem (Acts 15), a decision was taken to drop the non-essential elements of the Jewish form of Christianity.

Jobs Listen to the Voices Below you will find excerpts from Voices of Poor. Listen to the poor as they speak about their lives, and what it means to be poor. The excerpts are organized around the major conclusions of the study: The poor view wellbeing holistically Insecurity has increased. Violence is on the rise, both domestically and in the society. And the poor feel they have been bypassed by new economic opportunities. Gender inequity is widespread, domestic violence pervasive and gender relations stressed. The poor want governments and state institutions to be more accountable to them. Corruption emerges as a key poverty issue. ... The poor rely on informal networks and local institutions to survive, including the local holy man and the local nurse. The poor view wellbeing holistically Poverty is much more than income alone. For the poor, the good life or wellbeing is multidimensional with both material and psychological dimensions. Wellbeing is peace of mind; it is good health; it is belonging to a community; it is safety; it is freedom of choice and action; it is a dependable livelihood and a steady source of income; it is food. The poor describe illbeing as lack of material things - food especially but also lack of work, money, shelter and clothing and living and working in often unhealthy, polluted and risky environments. They also defined illbeing as bad experiences and bad feelings about the self. Perceptions of powerlessness over one's life and of voicelessness was common; so was anxiety and fear for the future.
