Sunday Herald - 05 June 2005 The pillage of Africa By Fred Bridgland Adventure and The early Portuguese in Angola set the general tone, exploiting the most obvious resource: African flesh. Some four million Africans were exported as slaves to the Americas; but it has been estimated that another nine million died during the march to the coast from the interior and while waiting to be herded on to ships. Mineral wealth was the foundation of colonial economies throughout Africa. By the time of independence, in the 1960s, the development plans of many African states were dependent upon the mines developed in the colonial era, the foremost being Congo, Gabon, Ghana, Mali, Sierra Leone, Zambia and Zimbabwe. But before the gold rush to Johannesburg there was the diamond rush to Kimberley, in Tswana and Griqua territory but which the British immediately annexed upon realising there was a diamond pipe which would prove the richest in the world . The Kimberley diamond pipe is thought to descend nearly 100 miles into the Earth. When gold was discovered on the Witwatersrand in 1885, and Johannesburg was established, the labour methods developed at Kimberley were transferred to the richest gold seams in the world, running through a 250-mile arc, where, at its height, 700,000 black miners were working to fuel white wealth. South Africa still has immense gold riches, but the great mining companies now have to dig ever deeper and at ever greater expense to reach the lodes. Some mines are so deep that Africans at the rock faces wear special waistcoats packed with ice to counteract the heat. Although safety standards have improved, African miners still die in great numbers.

(11691 bytes) By Fred Bridgland Adventure and abundant natural resources brought the early European settlers to Africa – and the same goes for many subsequent generations of fortune-hunters to this very day. The benefits that have accrued to the indigenous peoples from the five centuries of rapine since the Portuguese first settled west central Africa are subjects of intense and widespread debate in modern Africa. But, undoubtedly, one consequence of Europe’s lust for wealth has been lives of extreme nastiness, brutality and brevity for countless black Africans. The early Portuguese in Angola set the general tone, exploiting the most obvious resource: African flesh. Some four million Africans were exported as slaves to the Americas; but it has been estimated that another nine million died during the march to the coast from the interior and while waiting to be herded on to ships. Portugal and the Roman Catholic Church, which closely followed the flag, argued that the slave trade was spiritually beneficial. Both insisted that slaves be baptised before crossing the Atlantic in chains. On the wharfs at Luanda, the Angolan capital, as late as 1870 there could still be seen a marble chair in which the bishop had sat and baptised by boatloads the poor unfortunates. The Portuguese collected their tax, the clergyman his fee, and the Africans had their introduction to the white man’s religion and civilisation. There were also vast forests and immense mineral riches waiting to be exploited, with labour provided by such Africans who had not been shipped to Brazil and the US.

The Columbus Quincentennial
Celebrating 500 years of Oppression
by Christopher Komuves
This year will mark the 500th anniversary of Christopher Columbus's "discovery" of America. With characteristic nationalism and pride, the people of the United States will soon celebrate this national landmark. But how can one say that Columbus was the first person to discover America when about 40 million people already lived here? The answer is that you can't, unless you don't consider those who were already here to be people. If you only consider white Europeans as counting as people, then there's no problem. Europeans have historically held this view. When the Spanish invaded this continent, they did not consider the native peoples they conquered to be human. They would shoot and kill them for sport, not considering it to be murder, but rather like hunting big game. It took a Vatican proclamation suggesting that they might be human and thus that God might punish them for these murders to get the Spanish to stop. Not that they treated them with any great respect afterwardsnow native peoples were elevated to the status of mere pagan savages with false ideas of religion and culture. The Spanish and other Europeans tried to rectify this by forcefully indoctrinating them with Christianity. Columbus himself enslaved native populations and practiced his rule with bitter cruelty and brutality. Through his actions, both directly and indirectly, he was responsible for countless deaths and immense suffering. Should this be honored? Do we as a nation represent such values as conquest and subjugation of the less powerful (or more trusting), as slavery, merciless domination, and acting without honor or conscience? I don't want to think so, but the evidence for this as an historical truth is compelling.

    B etween 13 April and 15 September 1996 the exhibition Miscast. Negotiating Khoisan History and Material Culture was mounted at the South African National Gallery in Cape Town. The curator was Pippa Skotness, an accomplished artist in her own right. She applied to the material she had collected a creative artist's touch and imagination: she set up the exhibition as an installation. As a result the curator's role as an interpreter signposting meaning is highlighted. The installation is the creation of the curator; it visualizes her attitude towards the Khoisan and their history. The 'exhibition as installation' concept deliberately draws the attention of the visitors to this process of interpretation. Moreover, through the use of mirrors the visitors too become active participants in the installation. Indeed, when seeing their reflections, they are confronted with themselves as viewers. They are thus made to realise that the act of looking is already tainted by their own convictions, beliefs and prejudices. No encounter can be value-free. The Miscast installation aimed to engage the viewers both intellectually and emotionally. Pippa Skotness adds her voice and, through their active involvement, the voices of the visitors as well, to the history of the encounters between the Khoisan and the Europeans. With the benefit of postcolonial hindsight she lays bare a history of: "[...] brutality, genocide, dispossession, displacement, cultural and language extermination and enslavement [...]" (Exhibition pamphlet 1996: 4). Skotness exposes the gruesome fate of the Khoisan which she attributes to the way they were viewed by the most powerful group, the White conquerors. However, the Khoisan were not only dehumanized by the White colonizers but also by most of the anthropologists who came in their wake and saw them solely as fascinating study objects. This objectifying approach is still very much in evidence in anthropological museum collections which present the Khoisan as bucolic peoples living in total harmony with nature.

R©sum©
La dynamique des relations intercommunautaires et la politique identitaire dans la partie nord du d©partement de la Mezam, Cameroun . Les politiques d'identit©, qui souvent fluctuent entre le repli identitaire et le tribalisme et d©bouchent parfois sur des conflits arm©s et des g©nocides, trouvent leur origine dans la politique coloniale. Celle-ci visait   restructurer les relations entre des communaut©s qui s'accommodaient du pass© pr©colonial. Cet article essaie de d©montrer dans quelle mesure les relations bas©es sur l'arrangement entre les communaut©s dans la partie nord du d©partement de la Mezam au Cameroun, ont ©t© transform©es en relations de concurrence sous la colonisation britannique. La tentative de construire des unit©s administratives coloniales bas©es sur les relations de coop©ration pr©existantes a plut´t engendr© le d©saccord, les divisions et les tensions qui donnent naissance aujourd'hui   des politiques de discorde sociale qui ne servent pas l'int©rªt de l'int©gration nationale, mªme au niveau le plus ©l©mentaire qu'est la communaut©.
Abstract
Politics of identity, which often fluctuate between ethnicity and tribalism even resulting in armed conflict and genocide in some cases, can be traced to colonial attempts to reorganize peoples who accommodated themselves in the precolonial past. The paper attempts to show how relations based on accommodation in precolonial times have been modified to competing relations in colonial times and how this has affected postcolonial politics in the Northern Mezam area of Cameroon. Hoping to build on pre-existing relations of cooperation the colonial regime sowed the seeds of discord, division and tension that have given birth to divisive politics that does not serve the interest of national integration even at local level.

    Of Nubians and Nabateans: Implications of research on neglected dimensions of ancient world history
    Jesse Benjamin (*)
    Journal of Asian and African Studies , Nov 2001 v36 i4 p361(22)
    Full Text: ABSTRACT The exploration of relations between the Nubians and the Nabateans opens new possibilities concerning the historical and historiographic linkages between ancient East Africa and the ancient Middle East. In large part, such an analysis speaks to the re-mapping of Ancient World relations and the role of anti-colonial historiography in the execution of such a task. Anti-colonial historiography has challenged the presuppositions of the modern political construction of these regions and their interaction. It has done so by posing critical questions concerning the re-reading of existing data and, therefore, the reconstruction of the historical record. The new direction into Nubian/Nabatean relations initiates a broader cultural analysis of the "Old World" in the "Classical Era." I. Introduction

    SPEECH BY DR MANIE SCHOEMAN DURING A MUNICIPAL PROPERTY RATES BILL DEBATE
    12 February 2004 When enacted, this Bill will provide the basis for a blueprint of the future utilisation of a vast area of land on a sustainable basis. It should provide a mechanism to rectify the results of the injustices of centuries, where land was alienated from the indigenous peoples of South Africa. This occurred through conquest, trickery and ideology, resulting in the eventual overcrowding and degradation of the communal areas. This, in conjunction with the abuse of the traditional system, contributed to the incorrect utilisation of land, as well as the violation of human rights, especially women's rights. The lack of access to capital, inadequate infrastructure, training and support services, market access, etc, are all contributory factors to the current desperate state of affairs in most of the former homeland areas. The legal entrenchment of the tenure rights of people working the land, whilst recognising the de facto system of traditional leadership, demanded extreme wisdom and insight from both the drafters of this legislation and the Portfolio Committee. This Bill, because of its importance and its potential to create divisiveness, demands the support, not only of civil society, but also of the total political spectrum. It is, therefore, regrettable that the DA chose, even before its final approval by the Portfolio Committee, to shout it down in the public media. I refer to an article by the Hon. Graham McIntosh in the Natal Witness of 4 November 2003, in which he stated inter alia:
