Auto Update Traveler: Elishabee Joined: Visitors: Journal entries: Picture uploads: Latest journal entries Continuation... Everything about this plac.. Hmmmm! Life on campus ... Next This weekend we went to Kumasi (heart of the Asante Kingdom). There are national and regional houses of chiefs that work side by side with parliment. Although Ghana is a modern post-colonial country, traditional life is still very much alive. People wear bright colors. women wear head cloths and tie their babies onto the back with a large piece of cloth. Every one carries everythig on their heads and as a result have great posture...and possibly neck problems! Our journey to Kumasi and back was both increadable and heart breaking. We stopped in many crafts villiges where the whole community makes beeds, Kente cloth, or wood carvings. Children sworm the bus and grab our hands to walk with us. They love their pictures taken...especially digital because you can then show them the photo. They are poor, hungry, and drink stagnant and poluted water. But their faces are soo beautiful and joyful! Some of them beg for money, some give you their adresses and ask you to write, and the older ones try to get you to sponser their education or astablish a relationship through e-mail. When I saw the local school house my heart broke. How do you tell a child in such a state that you have no $ to help? I did take one boy's e-mail and told him that perhaps I could gather some resources for the school. Also, its amazing how smart these children are. This boy new soo much about the American government and about democracy.

It must be saved at all cost. After the publication of works entitled "Tradition orale et archives de la traite négrière" in 2001, " Les sources orales en Guinée et en Sénégambie " and " Tradition orale liée à la traite négrière et à l'esclavage en Afrique centrale " in 2003, UNESCO continues the collection and the diffusion of data of the oral tradition relating to the Slave Trade. This time, it places at the disposal of the researchers but also of the international community and general public information, which was collected in Nigeria, Ghana and Benin by Dr. Alaba Simpson of the University of Lagos. The data collected make it possible to better know the conditions of the first contact between Europeans and the societies and inform us on how the slaves were captured, treated and sold. Certain testimonies reveal with many details the role of the intermediaries and local trade partners of the Slave Trade and slavery in these countries.

The Press and Political Culture in Ghana Jennifer Hasty How the news gets made in Ghana. cloth paper TABLE OF CONTENTS I n The Press and Political Culture in Ghana , Jennifer Hasty looks at the practices of journalism and newsmaking at privately owned and state-operated daily newspapers in Ghana. Hasty decodes the styles and uncovers the strategies that characterize Ghana's major printed news media, focusing on the differences between news generated by the state and news that comes from private sources. Not only are the angles radically different, but so are ways of gathering the news, assigning beats, using sources, and writing articles. For all its differences in presentation, however, Hasty shows that the news in Ghana projects a unified voice that is the result of a contentious and multifarious process that joins Ghanaians in global, national, and local debates. An important engagement with the production of news and news media, this book also explores questions about the relationship of popular culture to state politics, the expression of civic culture, and the role of the media in constituting national and cultural identities. Jennifer Hasty is Assistant Professor of Anthropology at Pacific Lutheran University.

The Transom Review Volume 2/Issue 3 Parachute Radio in Ghana "The Talk of Accra" by Christopher Lydon Audio from Ghana Photos by Eric Osiakwan Download this document in PDF Slavery is the living wound under the patchwork of scars. A lot of time has passed, yet whole nations cry, sometimes softly, sometimes harshly, oftentimes without knowing why. ~ Poet Kwadwo Opoku-Agyemang, introducing his collection "Cape Coast Castle" What has been striking is the fact that we talk very little about slavery and the slave trade in Ghanaian society. I was educated here, at the University of Ghana, where I took a B.A. in History. Essentially I had to show up in a graduate seminar at the University of Virginia, taught by Joseph C. Miller. That is when my learning process began.... West Africans are different from Americans in that way, in that they choose not to talk about unfree ancestry. ~ Professor Emmanuel Acheampong, History Department, Harvard University Colonialism also had its effect in establishing certain external things as norms. For example, in many contemporary Ghanaian funerals, you hear the "Dead March" from Handel's "Saul." That is the wound that is still there, in that people accept that model. I don't blame people entirely, because to heal these wounds, to change the situation, you must have equally good and challenging music created by a contemporary person as an alternative. When it's not there, you will sing the "Hallelujah Chorus."

At March 6, 1957 the British colony Gold Coast gained political independence and became what today is known as Ghana. All over the British colonies, self-government and political independence were in the making. By the early 1960s most of the British colonies in Africa and the Caribbean had become politically independent states. Ghana‘s independence in 1957 became a symbol of this wider movement tightly associated with the hope for better times to come. The post-colonial experience in many places has turned out differently. The Recordings Kitchener recorded ‘Birth of Ghana‘ at the 23rd of November 1956 in London. Almost a decade before, Kitchener had migrated to England. He started recording Calypsos in Britain as early as 1948. ‘Birth of Ghana‘ was released as a 78 r.p.m. record on the Melodisc label (Melodisc 1390) which had become the main outlet and major disseminator of Kitch‘s and other Caribbean artists‘ recordings to the rest of the world from the early 1950s.(1) This 1956 recording confirms Kitcheners exceptional artistic qualities, his vocal finesse and lyrical inventiveness: his unique style of rendering and presenting Calypso. ‘Birth of Ghana‘ also reveals the musical sophistication that in terms of arrangement and harmonic structure is so characteristic of many recordings done by West Indian musicians for Melodisc in the 1950s. The listening experience of Birth of Ghana‘ is enhanced by a particular ”soundscape” that Richard Noblett has termed a ”steelpan feel”.(2)
