Repost from False Justice Freed on Friday: For more than 15 years, Damon Thibodeaux has spent 23 hours a day in solitary confinement on death row at Louisiana's Angola prison, but on Thursday Judge Patrick McCabe, the original judge in the 1997 trial that convicted Thibodeaux of the rape and murder of his cousin, vacated the conviction. According to this and numerous reports, Thibodeaux, the Innocence Project's 300th exoneration, provided an error-filled false confession after a long interrogation because of grief over his cousin's death, fear of lethal injection, and fatigue. Released on Friday, he is the 18th death row inmate exonerated primarily by DNA. His exoneration resulted from a five-year re-investigation involving both defense attorneys and the Jefferson Parish District Attorney. They concluded that the rape, which made this a capital crime, never occurred. Extensive testing of Thibodeaux's clothing and of crime scene evidence excluded Thibodeaux. Lack of any evidence connecting him to the crime supported the conclusion that he had nothing to do with the murder.

ANGOLA IN OCTOBER WILL HOST THE FIRST TOURISM FAIR (2012).

ANGOLA VAI ACOLHER EM OUTUBRO A PRIMEIRA FEIRA DO TURISMO(2012). PARABÉNS!! A primeira feira de turismo, subordinada ao tema “A promoção do património turístico de Angola dissemina as suas atracções turísticas”, realiza-se entre os dias 11 e 14 de Outubro deste ano, anunciou o Ministério da Hotelaria e Turismo. O encontro tem como objectivo a divulgação de aspectos culturais, históricos, naturais, gastronómicos e paisagísticos e dar a conhecer ao mundo as riquezas de Angola. Com este encontro, o Ministério da Hotelaria e Turismo pretende criar um espaço com o pensamento no sector e debater as estratégias necessárias para o seu desenvolvimento e profissionalização. A feira de Hotelaria e Turismovai contar com a participação de 200 expositores em dois pavilhões. Entre os potenciais participantes, o realce vai para as companhias aéreas, agências de viagens e turismo, hotéis, restaurantes, Serviço de Migração e Estrangeiros, Direcção das Alfândegas, seguradoras e instituições financeiras em representação de países africanos, Estados europeus, asiáticos e das Américas do Sul e Norte. Para o Ministério da Hotelaria e Turismo, a feira afigura-se como uma das estratégias tendentes a pôr o sector ao nível das actividades económicas chave no país, para que, a longo prazo, contribua para o Produto Interno Bruto (PIB) com pelo menos 4,7 triliões de kwanzas anualmente, a partir de 2020. O ministro da Hotelaria e Turismo angolano, Pedro Mutindi, prevê que nos próximos oito anos se atinja a meta de quatro milhões e 600 mil turistas e a criação de um milhão de empregos directos para cidadãos nacionais. O titular da pasta defende ainda maior empenho laboral e seriedade profissional. Angola acumula uma larga experiência de actividades do género, por participar regularmente em feiras internacionais de referência como é o caso da Bolsa do Turismo de Lisboa, e de outras com periodicidade anual na África do Sul, Alemanha e Espanha. Projecto Angola está a concretizar o Projecto Turístico Transfronteiriço Okavango-Zambeze, que vai interligar cinco países da Comunidade de Desenvolvimento da África Austral (SADC): Angola, Botswana, Namíbia, Zâmbia e o Zimbabwe. O objectivo consiste em transformar as áreas partilhadas entre os referidos Estados numa zona turística de referência internacional, permitir maior integração dos povos e transformar a região num ponto de atracção turística.O projecto visa contribuir, a breve trecho, para o desenvolvimento socioeconómico e cultural da região. Entre as acções programadas para tornar o turismo cada vez mais forte em Angola, destacam-se os investimentos na formação e actualização dos profissionais em escolas já existentes e noutras três em projecção, consiste ainda na uniformização dos preços, a actualização da classificação e adequação no licenciamento. A aprovação do Plano Director do Turismo em Angola e a criação dos Pólos Turísticos de Calandula (Malange), Cabo Ledo (Luanda) e Ocavango (Kuando-Kubango) são factos que demonstram a vontade do Governo angolano em preparar as condições para pôr o turismo numa posição de respeito. Sem desprimor para os demais sítios, as Ilhas do Cabo e do Mussulo (em Luanda), Fendas de Tundavala (Huíla), Quedas de Calandula (Malange), deserto do Namibe, Praia Morena (Benguela), Quedas do Mupa (Huambo), Cachoeiras do Binga (Kwanza-Sul), entre outros, são algumas das potencialidades turísticas naturais que merecem destaque. A estes encantos, juntam-se outros recursos da fauna e flora angolana, nomeadamente a Palanca Negra Gigante (animal), a Welwitchia Mirablis (planta), o Embondeiro (árvore frutífera), a Floresta do Maiombe (em Cabinda), entre outros símbolos culturais como o Pensador e a Muanapó. Pedro Mutindi sublinha que a paz efectiva e estabilidade política são factores que permitirão transformar os abundantes recursos turísticos numa fonte de receitas inacabável. A efeméride é reflectida em Angola com um crescimento bastante significativo neste seguimento, traduzido no aumento de 61 hotéis e 2.822 quartos, em 2008, para 145 hotéis e 7.602 quartos em 2012, nos últimos quatro anos. Até 2020 a cifra pode atingir 50 unidades, tendo em conta o desejo do Governo em construir em cada um dos cerca de 363 municípios pelo menos um novo hotel de 50 camas, no quadro do programa de expansão da rede hoteleira. * Jornalista da Angop Fonte: http://jornaldeangola.sapo.ao/18/56/angola_acolhe_em_outubro_primeira_feira_do_turismo

El nombre “PUERTO RICO” nació hace 504 años. Cuando el ambicioso Juan Ponce de León llegó en 1508 para comenzar la colonización española de Borikén (llamada por ellos, San Juan; hoy Puerto Rico) hizo un recorrido de reconocimiento por todo nuestro archipiélago. Cuando navegaba por la costa norte llegó a una gran bahía a la que llamó “Puerto Rico”. Algunos dicen se debió a que en ella encontró oro y otros porque la bahía era de excelencia, profunda y segura. De la bahía pasó el nombre a la Capital y luego a todo el país. Es bueno que sepas que HOY existen más de 70 pueblos, poblados y aldeas alrededor del MUNDO llamadas “Puerto Rico”: Angola, Canarias, EE.UU., Cuba, Brasil, Bolivia, Perú, Venezuela, México, Ecuador, entre otros pero ninguno como Colombia donde hay más de 12.

When the ambitious Juan Ponce de León arrived in 1508 to begin Spanish colonization of Borikén (called by them, San Juan; now Puerto Rico) made a journey of recognition throughout our archipelago. When sailing along the North Coast reached a large Bay which he called "Puerto Rico". Some say was due to that it found gold and others because the Bay was excellent, deep and safe. The Bay became the name to the Capital and then throughout the country. It is good to know that today there are more than 70 villages, towns, and villages around the world called "Puerto Rico": Angola, Canary Islands, USA.USA, Cuba, Brazil, Bolivia, Peru, Venezuela, Mexico, Ecuador, among others but none as Colombia where there are more than 12.

Holla, Holla, Holla… remember the first lines of that song, Good time, where he featured Cabo Snoop? Justice Martins, popularly known as J-Martins is one of the few Nigerian artists who have succeeded in carving a niche for themselves in the ever-growing Nigerian music scene. He will not only have fans celebrating his birthday with him today, but also the release of his new single,”Kpomo”. He has organized a place in GRA, Lagos where fans can celebrate his double joy with him. The producer said he decided to give his fans a birthday surprise, as well as use the opportunity to thank God for His mercies over the last seven years he has been in the music industry. “spending seven years as a performing artiste is something that is worth celebrating. It is not when I have spent between ten and fifteen years that I will roll out the drums to celebrate my achievements. Seven years is a number of perfection and I thought that since my birthday is around the corner, it is ideal for me to release my new single to mark my birthday.” “Also, I decided to release my new single as a way of appreciating my fans who have stayed with me all these years.” He took time to educate fans on the title of his new song and the reason behind the choice. “You may want to ask why the title Kpomo? If you have been following my music right from when I released my first album, you would notice that in all my songs, I tried to use words that deal with ‘real life’ issues such as ‘which kind life be this’ , ‘Juba Juba’, ‘Oyoyo’, a song I drew the inspiration from legendary Majek Fashek, “Eva’and others.” “The reason I chose the word ‘Kpomo’ is because it’s not only catchy, but also, it reflects the lyrics of what I have been doing over the years. The musician said the single was conceived in the US while he was on tour. J-Martins went international after featuring Fally Ipupa in his hit single, ‘Jupa’ remix. He went further to feature a singer from Angola, Cabo Snoop in one of his songs, Goo which still holds a special place in the heart of his fans. Are you a christian? Love Gospel music?

Available at www.amazon.com LSU Spirit, in the Mounds is the ninth novel in the series. The Sci-Fi Adventures of Dr. Kenneth Messenger: The Parallel Universe Series LSU Spirit, in the Mounds is a humorous romp with Dr. Messenger, from the LSU campus to the Angola State Penitentiary and over to the Stennis Space Center. Messenger is fascinated by the eerie events centered around Native American Indian mounds. Early European explorers never observed the Indians actually constructing the 6,000 year old mounds and there was a plethora of rumors about them, which focused on alien visitors and ghostly apparitions. Messenger's girl friend, Coma, learned of the deep meaning of the twin eagle feathers and she struggled to fathom Ken's Indian mound obsession. In Ken's adventure, he befriends an old LSU Anthropology Professor, who has an uncanny relationship with an ancient Choctaw tribal elder. Messenger is puzzled by the meaning of predestination, orbs, life eternal and….love. Will a neutron blaster be capable of destroying the 'eggs of doom' that are about to hatch inside the mounds? Can he avert the Apocalypse of the Mounds? What does immortality have to do with any of it? LSU Spirit, in the Mounds is a non-stop turn of events, interspersed with strange characters and their antics. Again, be prepared for a shocker of an ending!

Angola's Dos Santos reshuffles government - Times LIVE

All Diamonds are Blood Diamonds 1. Africa and all its resources are the birthright of African people everywhere All Diamonds are Blood Diamonds 2. The U.S. invasion and occupation of Iraq has forced us to recognize the terrible price paid by peoples around the world the oil reserves necessary for the daily functioning of the U.S. economic life. The slogan is “No blood for oil.” 3. In the Niger Delta of Nigeria African people living in dire poverty are fighting shell Oil for control over the multi-dollar oil industry on their own land. 70 percent on less than a dollar a day. The poverty, lack of electricity and sanitation and profound pollution. Yet Shell Oil and other oil corporations have made more than $300 billion on Nigerian oil. White people live in mansions with big SUVs in the same area. The people of this area are waging armed struggle. They say if they cannot benefit from the oil, no one will benefit from the oil. They call it “blood oil.” 4. The U.S. and European controlled chocolate industry in Africa is a bitter reality. Ivory Coast produces 40 percent of the world’s cocoa and in West Africa there are more than a quarter million young African children working in enslavement in the cocoa plantations. All chocolate is blood chocolate. 5. We can even show that even aluminum foil can be called Blood aluminum . In Guinea Conakry earlier this year there was a general strike for over a month. Guinea has 40 percent of the world’s bauxite, the mineral needed to make aluminum, but the average income of those considered “middle class” is $500 a year. Alcoa, Reynolds and other corporations are making billions of dollars but the people are forced to live under a repressive government and cannot even afford to buy rice in a country where gas costs almost $5 a liter. 6. In Congo 5 million people have been killed in the past few years in U.S. and imperialist backed wars over Coltan the mineral that is the electrical conductor necessary for cell phones and computers. 80 percent of the world’s coltan is in Congo. So we say all computers and cell phones are blood computers and cell phones. Coltan worth over $400 a pound in a world where 1.7 billion people have wireless phones–one out of every 4 on the planet. Child labor, murder, dire poverty–a few dollars a day at best–rape, death in the mines–thousands die in the mine shafts and also from starvation–mostly children. 7. Blood cell phones and computers 8. We don’t have to go to Africa or other places. The U.S. is built on African enslaved labor. IIn the U.S. a multitude o products such as office furniture, jeans, clothing, bedding, clocks and signs are made by slave labor inside of prisons. The prison industry has half a million workers more than any Fortune 500 corporation. With more than 2 million mostly African and Mexican people incarcerated With more than 2 million mostly African and Mexican people incarcerated inside the U.S. facing Three Strikes and mandatory minimums, one in three African men between the ages of 20 and 29 is either in jail, on probation or parole. In a private Texas prison guards were videotaped beating, shocking, kicking and setting dogs on prisoners—what u.S. soldiers did in Abu Ghraib has been practiced against African people in U.S. prisons for years. So we can say all prison products are blood products. 9. In a system built on centuries of the enslavement of African people, on genocide, oppression and colonialism in this country and around the world we can say that beneath the sparkling veneer of every resource that we take for granted is a very ugly story. 10. So this is the context that we say that All diamonds are blood diamonds! 11. We are sold the idea that diamonds are a symbol of beauty and long-lasting love. “Diamonds are forever,” “a girl’s best friend.” 12. The truth about diamonds is not beautiful—diamonds are steeped genocide, colonialism, poverty and oppression–controlled by the brutal DeBeers diamond cartel. 13. In 1938 DeBeers cartel hired a Philadelphia public relations firm when sales were sagging– to market to Americans that diamond rings were a necessity for engagements and weddings. In the past diamonds were relatively rare as engagement rings. To do this they launched slogan “A diamond is forever,” and promoted the myth that a diamond ring should cost two months salary. 14. The reality is diamonds are not particularly valuable. They can be found around the world. Their value is created by manufactured scarcity—forcibly keeping diamonds off the market to increase their value. Unlike most other precious stones they do no appreciate with age and have a poor resale value. 15. Finest large gem-quality diamonds come from Sierra Leone, along with Angola, Namibia and Congo. 16. Diamonds are not just for jewelry–it is the strongest material in the world.Used in cutting, in airplanes and in defense–ESSENTIAL to the U.S. military industry. Industrial diamonds worth $10,000 a pound. 17. DeBeers is a cartel which is a monopoly that controls every aspect of the economy of the product. DeBeers controls not only mining but cutting, polishing, setting into jewelry, pricing and selling world wide. Millions of children and very young people involved in diamond industry. 18. The concept of blood or conflict diamonds came about in reference to the brutal imperialist backed wars in Sierra Leone and West Africa in the 1990s. 19. Sierra Leone is a former British colony on the West Coast of Africa. 20. British colonialism In the 1700s Bunce Island in the Sierra Leone River was called the “slave factory.” From here the British supplied captive Africans particularly to Charlestown South Carolina and to Georgia. Americans. The North American slave ships that called at Bunce Island were sailing out of Newport (Rhode Island), New London (Connecticut), Salem (Massachusetts), and New York. 21. More than 50,000 Africans were kidnapped from Sierra Leone mostly into South Carolina and Georgia. They were called the Gullah people–worked in rice paddies in cotton plantations in the U.S. They were fierce fighters and many escaped from enslavement by joining the Seminoles in Florida where they built thatched roof houses as in their homeland. Thatched roof–environmentally sustainable! 22. Sierra Leone won nominal independence from Britain in 1961 with the establishment of neocolonialism as in the rest of Africa. 23. Sierra Leone is one of the most impoverished countries in the world–most of the people live on less than a dollar a day. It has the highest infant mortality in the world and the life expectancy for men is 38 years. 24. Yet Sierra Leone has immense natural resources Diamonds-some of the best in the world Titanium ore (red)– ･ in the aerospace industry – for example in aircraft engines and air frames; ･ for replacement hip joints; ･ for pipes, etc, in the nuclear, oil and chemical industries where corrosion is likely to occur. Bauxite used for aluminum Gold Chromite (green) used in stainless steel. 25. Chromite–stainless steel. As in the rest of Africa the profits and benefits of Sierra Leone’s natural resources are in Europe and North America. Although the resources are on their land, the people are deeply impoverished. 80 percent of households in Sierra Leone must use charcoal and wood for cooking. . In the world 2.4 billion people still cook over wood , charcoal or dung fires. 26. Neocolonialism. Former British colonizers continue to control the economy, the military and the governing of Sierra Leone — neocolonialism leaving only crumbs. Along with other imperialist states they continue to extract the wealth. 27. In the 1990s The Revolutionary United Front emerged led by Foday Sankoh. At first the people thought they were fighting in the interest of the people. But they were imperialist influenced fighting for crumbs of the colonial plunder. They launched a brutal war against the people of Sierra Leone with 50,000 murdered and tens of thousands of mutilations. It is said that DeBeers and Israel were the biggest benefactors of the war. 28. By cutting off the people’s hands-signature torture used by the Belgian colonizers against African people in Congo during Belgian colonialism. 29. The RUF forced young children to fight and to carry out most of the atrocities–often against other children The child soldiers given tea, coffee and stimulant drugs. 30. RUF took over some of the diamond mines–this is a picture of one — and began selling diamonds on the open market outside of the control of DeBeers. 31. From DeBeers website Because this served to depress DeBeers artificially high prices for diamonds based on manufactured scarcity, the DeBeers cartel was threatened. This prompted DeBeers to come up with the concept of the “blood” or “conflict” diamond–not because of concern for the people but because they did not want to see the price of diamonds go down. 32. So DeBeers diamond cartel set up the Kimberley Process Certification Scheme–that would supposedly determine if a diamond is “blood” or clean. Police policing themselves–like Alberto Gonzalez policing himself. 33. The reality is DeBeers is the key figure behind the issue of blood diamonds. Under the “legitimate” diamond mines of Sierra Leone–meaning the DeBeers and imperialist controlled mines–African miners are forced to work for almost nothing. Most of the diggers must work “independently getting only a tiny percentage on any diamonds that they find which are taken by the mine. Only a few workers actually get a salary–from 30 cents to $2 a day. Nicky Oppenheimer and CEOs of DeBeers–one world’s richest men worth 3 billion dollars–eats organic foods and farm. 34. According to an international trade union report 72 percent of the children of Sierra Leone between the ages of 5 to 14 are forced into paid or unpaid labor–in the legitimate diamonds mines or other industry. In that region nearly a half million children are forced into labor. Childhood is a result of privilege. 35. There is no electrical grid. Only oil lanterns at night. Only electricity is from generators and 82% of that is in Freetown. In sierra Leone only 1% use generators and 85 percent use oil lamps. 36. Sierra Leone has no running water, no water purification system, little hygiene or few toilets. 37. Sierra Leone has no system of roads, few paved roads and most roads are impassable in rainy season. 38. How things got the way they are 39. Africa is the birthplace of civilization–all science, mathematics, art, philosophy, religion and archeology originated in Africa. Sierra Leone and most of West Africa was part of the African civilization of Mali (the people called it Manden) from 1235 to 1645 — ended by the enslavement of African people. It had enormous influence in the whole world. One of its cities Timbuktu was a center of learning–people came from everywhere to study and to enjoy the lively social and artistic culture. There was a medical school that taught delicate eye operations to remove cataracts. Mansa Musa was one of the famous rulers of Mali in the 1300s. He brought architects and scholars into Mali. His rule was known for prosperity and stability of the country as well as for artistic, educational and technological achievement. 40. Europe in the middle ages was backwards, disease ridden, poor oppressed and warlike. 41. In the 1300s the plague swept through Europe killing up to a half of the population and destroying the already impoverished agricultural economy of feudalism. 42. Europe rescued itself by its assault on Africa. In 1415 Henry the Navigator (never sailed a ship) sent Portuguese fleets out to the west coast of Africa to attempt to gain control of the wealthy African trade in gold, silver and other resources–trade that had gone on for centuries–millennia–connecting trade routes to the Middle East and Asia. They found African people themselves to be their most valuable commodity. The Arabs had a trade in African people as slaves for a thousand years. The slave trade started almost 80 years before Columbus sailed for the Americas By 1500 Portugal had extracted 700 tons of African gold, shipping it to Portugal and had kidnapped more than 81,000 African people into slavery. 43. Men, women and children in chains were stacked on top of each other on pallets in the holds of ships with the hideous stench of open pits of human waste. The pallets (seen on the lower left) were no more than 15 inches high. Hundreds of thousands of African people died of disease or starvation, or were murdered for attempted resistance and thrown overboard. The ecology of the Atlantic Ocean was changed by the slave trade. Schools of sharks would follow the slave ships to feed off the African men, women and children who died and were murdered on board and who were thrown overboard. 44. The trade in African people was the key ingredient in the triangular trade bringing captives from Africa as forced labor for the plantations of the Americas, transporting resources such as cotton, sugar, tobacco and rum to North America and to England. 45. Along with the assault on Africa was the genocide against the Indigenous people and the theft of their land and resources. Above is aftermath of U.S. slaughter at Wounded Knee in 1890. And VOLUNTEER cavalry. 46. This slaughter, genocide, rape and plunder of the peoples of the Earth brought unprecedented wealth into Europe for the first time. 47. This is what brought about the industrial revolution and transform Europe from feudalism to capitalism. 48. In the U.S. the “founding fathers” were slave masters, owners of African people and instigators of the genocide against the Indigenous people. This is the “founding values” of America. This slide shows an idealized, falsified serene picture of the treatment by George Washington of enslaved Africans who was known for his brutality. Washington “owned” more than 300 African people, giving them meager daily rations of a few ounces of grain and fish by-products. 49. There were tens of thousands of burnings and lynchings like this one in Kansas City. 50. Children at lynchings 51. As Omali Yeshitela, Chairman of the African People’s Socialist Party and leader of the Uhuru Movement states all classes of white people sit on the pedestal of the enslavement of African people and colonized and oppressed peoples around the world. 52. Wall Street was the center of New York’s slave auction blocks. In the 18th and 19th centuries enslaved Africans were one fifth the population of New York. When the civil war was declared, New York was so dependent on the cotton industry that the city considered joining the Confederacy. It is telling that an African cemetery was found in recent years under the high rise buildings of Wall Streets—American wealth resting literally on the bodies of African people. 53. White people sit on the pedestal of slavery and genocide. 54. Throughout Africa and the Americas the resistance of African people was fierce and powerful. We do not learn enough about that–covered over in history books. On the slave ships resistance was the major cause of death for captain and crew. The African Revolution in Haiti in the early 19th century, resistance by the Maroons in the Caribbean and South America the resistance of Denmark Vesey, Nat Turner, two city-wide African rebellions in New York City, Gabriel Prosser, Cinque, Harriet Tubman. In Brazil, Surinam–everywhere Africans were enslaved they were in a state of resistance. 55. The Shona, Zulu, Chokwe and many other African peoples waged fierce resistance to colonialism and the colonial borders imposed by the Berlin conference. The Ashanti people in Ghana waged armed resistance to the British for 200 years.Above is Yaa Asantewaa, the Ashanti woman resistance leader in 1900. 56. King Leopold of Belgium was a leading Abolitionist of his day. He was responsible for turning Congo into a rubber plantation to provide tires for bicycles and the newly emerging automobile industry in Europe and the U.S. in the 1890s. At least 10 million Africans were slaughtered by Leopold’s forces before there was even a word for genocide. Millions had their hands chopped off for resisting being enslaved on their own land. People were sexually assaulted and mutilated. Children were stolen from their parents and taken into camps to be groomed as a colonial army–genocide under international law. Leopold GAVE Congo to Belgium–it was his personal business! 57. The scramble for Africa and Africa’s resources. At least two million Africans were killed in the scramble for ivory tusks for piano keys and billiard balls–the center of the ivory trade was Connecticut. 58. 80 percent of the Nama and Herero peoples in Namibia were wiped out by the Germans They were rounded up and left to die in the desert without food, water or shelter to die a slow torturous death. Germany has never recognized this genocide or paid reparations even as they paid billions in reparations to Israel. Same methods used by Hitler. 59. During this same time the British colonizer Cecil Rhodes came to southern Africa. Rhodes was an ideological colonizer. He believed in British imperialism and promoted it. He said to “prevent civil war you must become an imperialist “ among the workers of England….He created the Rhodes scholarship. 60. His goal was to install British imperialism from Cape Town to Cairo and built the Cape-Cairo railway. 61. His vision was part of the British empire on which they boasted “the sun never set” because it went around the world. The British empire included 77 countries including India and15 countries in Africa. 458 million people were oppressed in this empire–one quarter of the world’s population at that time under British colonialism. At that time England had the highest standard of living in the world based on the near starvation of the people in Africa, India and the other colonies. 62. Cecil Rhodes was a perpetrator of genocide, responsible for the displacement of millions of African people for the benefit of white settlers and enslavement of African people on their own land. White people came from Europe and became wealthy from the theft of the gold and diamonds in Southern Africa. Pass laws. 63. Cecil Rhodes founded DeBeers diamond cartel. Rhodes went to south Africa from Britain when he was 18 years sold–he took over the diamond mines at Kimberley south Africa and others in the area. By his early 20s he was a millionaire but he did not retire–he believed in subjugating Africa for the benefit of England. 64. Rhodes went to Zimbabwe, the land of the Matabele and Shona who launched fierce resistance led by their leader Lobengula. 65. Rhodes paid a mercenary army from England and stocked them with Maxim machine guns. With just 5 machine guns the English slaughtered 5,000 African people in one afternoon alone–then they celebrated with dinner and champagne. 66. Winston Churchill and Baden Powell boy scouts. Cecil Rhodes, gay, said he, “thoroughly enjoyed the outing.” Saw the slaughter of Africans as sport and adventure. 67. The Chokwe, Shona and Zulu people were among those who led powerful struggles against the European invasions. 68. Cecil Rhodes helped set up the apartheid system in south Africa and the pass laws–based on the Jim Crow laws of the United States. 69. Pass laws, colonial taxation of African people to force them to work to be used as near slave labor in the diamond mines. 70. Africans in the diamond mines were forced to stay away from family and wife, in compounds with only cold tea and bread.–much the same conditions today. 71. When Cecil Rhodes died the DeBeers diamond cartel was taken over by the Oppenheimer family. 72. The atrocities that took place in Sierra Leone and West Africa were what DeBeers itself has done to African people for a hundred years. On knees Africans, with cans, body cavity searches, Zulu forced to pull rickshaw for owners. 73. Diamonds have long played a role in neocolonialism in Africa. Mobutu’s villa on the Riviera , his diamonds, Mobutu one of richest men in the world which says something about the worth of the resources in Congo. CIA worked with Kennedy, Eisenhower and DeBeers to assassinate Lumumba. 74. Neocolonialism continues today. Mandela with Nicky Oppenheimer in front of statue of Cecil Rhodes. Mandela has praised DeBeers and Cecil Rhodes. Below: Mandela with Mobutu 75. Under Mandela and the ANC the conditions are worse for African workers and better for white people. Today 12 years after the end of apartheid, 61 percent of African people live below the poverty line in South Africa, while only one percent of whites. 96 percent of commercial arable land is still in the hands of whites. Conditions are 14 percent BETTER for white people than they were under apartheid. 76. Africa also has up to 90 percent of the world’s reserves of cobalt, manganese, chromium and platinum–in West and Southern Africa. U.S. military needs these to function in the defense industry. Pentagon report say they would do anything to maintain those resources. 77. U.S. military and AFRICOM in Africa–says its in the name of “war on terror” U.S. military deploys well over half a million soldiers, spies, technicians, teachers, dependents, and civilian contractors in other nations.US has more than 700 military bases–growing to 1000 by end of decade in 130 countries around the world. 78. What is the solution? 79. Our lifestyle requires the suffering of African people–in this country There is colonialism inside the U.S. Two Americas Wake up to reality. 80. In Africa–our lives are at the expense of African people. 81. African people are a colony inside the U.S.–not racism- not ideas inside our heads–political and economic relationship–same as in Iraq, Palestine etc. Two Americas. 82. Uhuru Movement is led by Omali Yeshitela, leader of the African People’s Socialist Party, united African People around the world for one united and liberated Africa. In the spirit of Marcus Garvey, Malcolm X, Kwame Nkrumah, Patrice Lumumba. 83. Africans are one people all over the world. 84. Not charity, not peace corps, missionaries, movie stars adopting African babies. 85. African resources belong to African people everywhere! 86. Building the African Socialist International around the world. Touch One! Touch All! 87. Africa in the hands of African working class people, not neocolonialists. 88. Unite with the struggle for reparations to African people! WE HAVE TO SEE THE WORLD THROUGH THE EYES OF THE PEOPLES OF THE PLANET STRUGGLING FOR CONTROL OF THEIR RESOURCES, LAND AND LIVES. RETURN YOUR DIAMOND TO AFRICA! RETURN DIAMONDS TO AFRICA!

Minha Terra Minha Angola

A uma pergunta, quase sacremental que nos é feita por quem visita o nosso Musseque. É esta: _ Como é possivel manter a vida aqui!...Criar os filhos; Diante da realidade que os olhos vêm...A Resposta sai espontaniamente. _ Vivemos desde a venda de sacos de àgua, passando pelo Micaté, venda de gelo, Cervejas, Cigarros a vulso...enganar o proximo, como intermédiario em qualquer negócio, da kixiquila, da gasosa de todas as praticas ilegais imaginarias possivel, menos do salário. A pesar de vivermos rodeados de lixo, baratas, ratos, àgua paradas, mosquitos, fome, bebidas frementadas, fabricadas em cada beco, provocando a morte a muitos jovens. Frustação é o resumo do nosso ser. , Aqui não somos representado por ninguém. O Comissáriado Municipal é de faixada, Onde a maior oposição é a chuva e a lama. Aqui somos simples mortais, parado vendo as obras que se aprovam e que se fazem, superfaturadas , nova forma de enrequicimento do sistema e as escola não ensinam o que é a corrupção? a inflação?..Aqui aprende-se que a vida recomeça a cada dia , pura piada. Somos sim, filho da propria tragédia. Muitos aqui olham pra céu com muita fé e pouca luta. Angola esta a mudar mais o meu musseque não, porque quando agente muda, o Mundo muda com agente e na mudança da mentalidade o mundo anda pra frente. Para a nossa sobrevivência recorremos a CONDONGA!...

African WOMEN in Revolution This book is an ambitious, extensive and detailed analysis of the roles played by African women in seven revolutionary movements in post World War II Africa. The revolutionary movements covered in this book occurred in: Algeria, Kenya, Guinea-Bissau, Mozambique, Angola, Zimbabwe, and South Africa. The book describes and analyzes the nature and impact of women’s participation in these revolutionary movements. How did these revolutionary movements define women’s liberation? What is the linkage between feminist theories of liberation and national liberation? Did the national liberation movements betray women? And what has been the fate of the original commitments (and impulses) toward women’s liberation and gender equality? At its center, this is a pioneering broad interpretive work. Drawing on the theoretical formulations and advances in economics and economic theory, political science, sociology, anthropology, education, history (of several countries), and feminist studies, this book is a significant contribution to the study of African women’s history and struggle in recent African history. For the first time, African women’s struggles for liberation in these movements are studied, and analyzed “under one roof”. By considering seven movements in one book, Maloba provides opportunities for both direct and indirect comparison.

WE WELCOME YOU, TO BEING A PART OF OUR AFRICAN SHOW ((we give you some of the important information about the show)) (What is Zouk music?) About the Music read through get to know about zouk music... Zouk is first of all a style of rhythmic music originating from the Caribbean islands of Guadeloupe and Martinique. The Zouk music is characterised by a slow rhythm and a heart-beat like deep base line. The term “Zouk” literally means “party” in Creole language, which is influenced by French, English and African roots. Consequently Zouk summarises influences from very different origins. From a similar music family is “Kizomba”, which has its origin in Angola and Cape Verde. Nowadays Zouk is mixed with different genres and styles. Kompa, Reggae, Salsa, Lambada, Reggaeton or other Latin American influences, but also R&B and electronic Music and just some to be mentioned. There is something in for everyone! About the Dance Zouk Dance like the Zouk Music has very different styles and interpretations. The different styles often have their origins. Thanks for being part of the show enjoy.91.2 CROOZE FM.

Nengomasha did not travel to the first leg win in Harare because his club claimed he had not been called up the required 14 days before the match by the Zimbabwe Football Association. Also missing for similar reasons was the former Kaizer Chiefs striker Knowledge Musona, who is also recalled for the return encounter which will decide which of the two southern African countries qualify for the 2013 Nations Cup finals in South Africa

Many people wonder how a few Afrikaner soldiers could fight and defeat the entire Communist Empire on the Namibian/Angolan border during the 1970's and 1980's. Many people wonder how a few Afrikaner farmers could defeat the entire British Empire during the Anglo/Boer war 1899-1902. The Boers lost the war, but were not defeated militarily on the battlefield, but surrendered due to the fact that the British put their wives and children in concentration camps. Till this day it has been Britain's most expensive war. Today if one travels to Australia, Canada and New Zealand one will see memorials they erected for their soldiers who died fighting the Afrikaner Boers. These few Afrikaner Boers were farmers, not soldiers, yet they accomplished almost the impossible by beating the best army in the world at that stage. As I said, these Afrikaner men fought the Entire Communist world and defeated them with no outside help. In fact, the world imposed severe sanctions on them, but somehow they still defeated the Cubans, Russians, East Germans, the lot...all by themselves. Many people today say, "Why did they fight, the ANC/Communists have South Africa anyway? Why did the Boers fight the British, the British won any way"? Well, let's see why soldiers fight and why Afrikaners were so good in battle,let's look at the Afrikaner culture. First of all they are deeply religious. Most Afrikaners raise their children as conservative Christians. Afrikaans children are encouraged to play sport and if a boy does not play the physical game of Rugby, he is frowned upon. Afrikaner children are very competitive, not just at sport, but also at school. Focus is a lot on individual brilliance and your child must be at least under the top three in class. Afrikaners also spank their children regularly, when they step out of line. Until recently, corporal punishment at school was an accepted, normal practice at school. If your homework was not done or you failed a test, your teachers would give you a hiding. If you smoked at school or misbehaved, you would get a hiding. Parents supported the teachers in this. Many a time you would get a hiding from your teacher and another one from your father, for the same offence. Children were well behaved and disciplined. Afrikaner boys also learn to shoot from a young age. Basically from the age of six, they start shooting with air rifles. They also make and shoot catapults as well as Bow & Arrow. Playing in the bush is normal for Afrikaner children. They are also encouraged to join groups such as the Scouts or Voortrekker Movement. During the 1970's and 1980's, all high schools had school cadets. Boys were issued with military uniform and one day a week had to wear this to school. They were taught how to drill in a squad from the age of 13 and all throughout their high school career. Almost every school had a cadet band and a shooting team. Boys also went on cadet camps during school holidays, where they learned military tactics and had great fun. All of this was encouraged by the parents and mothers use to be proud of their soldier boys. By the time a young man was finished with school and about 18/19 years old, he was conscripted into the South African Defense Force for 2 years. At this time, it became obvious that these young men were easy to turn into soldiers. Discipline is arguably the single most important quality of good soldiers. Just from the way Afrikaners raise their children, they are already well disciplined. They already knew how to shoot and drill. Becoming a soldier was only a small step away. In the Army these boys were given three months basic training and a further three months specialised training. Leaders were identified and put on a nine months Junior Leader's course to become officers or instructors. After training these soldiers performed a 12 month tour of duty on the Namibian/Angolan border. The last six months of his two year conscription he spent in the townships of South Africa. This was considered to be his cooling down period and after that he was discharged from the Army, but remained on the reserves, and once a year he had to go to camp for two months or so until the age of fifty. Wives, mothers, sisters and girlfriends were proud of their soldier husbands and sons. It was normal for us. Men could be trusted to protect their families. These men then were some of the best soldiers this world has ever seen, if not THE best. Our elite units, such as the Reconnaissance, Koevoet and Parachute Regiments were definitely the best I ever came across. One thing was for sure in these days. You did not mess with the South African Defense Force! They would kick your arse, as the Communists discovered in Angola, on many occasions. In 1994 the politicians decided to give the country to the Communists on a silver platter. Common terrorist were not only incorporated in the SADF, but put in charge. That was the end of our once outstanding fighting force. The Communists did not stop there though. Out there were thousands of men who were all military trained and who could be mustered at the drop of a hat. Just from an historic point of view, the Communists in charge of South Africa knew that Afrikaner culture alone generates disciplined young men that can easily be turned into soldiers. Does it then come as any surprise that the Communists would be hell bent on destroying this culture? They do not want 18/19 year old potential soldiers walking around. These young men are threat to the Communists and they know it only too well. That is why the Communists introduced laws that scrapped corporal punishment in schools. They introduced laws that prevent parents from spanking their children. School cadets have been scrapped. Outcomes Based Education and Training has been introduced at schools. OBET teaches mediocrity and suppress individualism. They introduced a variety of drugs to the youth. Promiscuity amongst the youth is promoted. Just wear a condom, and everything is fine, they say. One can also see the other relentless attacks on Afrikaner culture. Their church, the Dutch Reform Church, is actively being divided; their schools and universities are being destroyed. Being an Afrikaner is ridiculed by others and Afrikaners are made out to all be racists pigs. Afrikaner young men can't find work anymore, so leave to go and work overseas. Afrikaner young men can't serve in the armed forces and are prohibited by law to serve in foreign militaries. They could be tried for treason. All of these laws are introduced by the Communists to prevent a possible revolt from Afrikaners. They fought them before; they know that against the Afrikaners they don't stand a chance. I see it every day; this paranoia from the Communists. They created this myth of "Afrikaner Angst". There is no such a thing! Afrikaners aren't scared or anxious of anything. The people who are scared, anxious and crapping themselves are the Communists. Afrikaners make out 5% of the South African population, yet the Communists go out of their way to suppress them. Why? It's because they know what a handful of Afrikaners are capable of! What is my advice then? To the Afrikaners I want to say this; Keep your faith and religion active. Protect and fight for your language and culture. Raise your kids, especially the boys as soldiers. Sufficient discipline, active sports these are things they need to do. Let them play rugby, do martial arts. Let them learn to do rock climbing, scuba diving and Parachute jumping are all things the communists blacks don’t do. Let your sons join the scouts or the Voortrekker movement so they can learn survival skills. If you do this, it will be easy to transform these young men into soldiers, for believe me, the time for that is nearer than you think. To the Communist I want to say this: Keep suppressing the Afrikaners, but please, step it up a gear. You see, I know them very well. All you are doing is make the Afrikaners tougher. Further the Afrikaners need to hate you, but only with a passion, because it makes it a lot easier to kill you when the time comes. Steal what you can now, because when there is nothing more to steal from the Afrikaners and they have nothing more to give, you will experience their wrath. That day I want a front row seat, because boy is it going to be pretty. I always thought that there is nothing more beautiful than a Springbok Rugby player in full flight, but that day I want to see the Commies run with Afrikaners hunting them down like dogs! I want to see the Commies get smashed and ripped apart by my Afrikaner Brethren. May none of the cursed bastards survive

Ann Nzinga "Queen of Ndongo" (1582-1663) In the sixteenth century, the Portuguese stake in the slave trade was threatened by England and France. This caused the Portuguese to transfer their slave-trading activities southward to the Congo and South West Africa. Their most stubborn opposition, as they entered the final phase of the conquest of Angola, came from a queen who was a great head of state, and a military leader with few peers in her time. The important facts about her life are outlined by Professor Glasgow of Bowie, Maryland: “Her extraordinary story begins about 1582, the year of her birth. She is referred to as Nzingha, or Jinga, but is better known as Ann Nzingha. She was the sister of the then-reigning King of Ndongo, Ngoli Bbondi, whose country was later called Angola. Nzingha was from an ethnic group called the Jagas. The Jagas were an extremely militant group who formed a human shield against the Portuguese slave traders. Nzingha never accepted the Portuguese conquest of Angola, and was always on the military offensive. As part of her strategy against the invaders, she formed an alliance with the Dutch, who she intended to use to defeat the Portuguese slave traders.” In 1623, at the age of forty-one, Nzingha became Queen of Ndongo. She forbade her subjects to call her Queen, She preferred to be called King, and when leading an army in battle, dressed in men’s clothing. In 1659, at the age of seventy-five, she signed a treaty with the Portuguese, bringing her no feeling of triumph. Nzingha had resisted the Portuguese most of her adult life. African bravery, however, was no match for gun powder. This great African woman died in 1663, which was followed by the massive expansion of the Portuguese slave trade.

O VELHO MAXIMBOMBO DA NOVA LUANDA.

Le Seixas

''Só que eu gosto mesmo é do maximbombo. Não estou velho, nada disso. O maximbombo, apesar de ter saído da barriga inglesa, é uma invenção (o Luandino chama-lhe “recriação”) nossa, é mais original que autocarro, eu amo o maximbombo, é nacional e é bom, assim à maneira da fala televisionada do André Mingas''. Leia mais: Photo by torre Por José Luís Mendonça| O VELHO MAXIMBOMBO DA NOVA LUANDA. A primeira crónica que dei aos olhos do público mais vasto e desconhecido saiu em 1974 e falava de Luanda e do seu meio de transporte colectivo por excelência, o maximbombo. Quando conquistámos a nossa Independência, li as estórias “Luuanda”, do Luandino Vieira e ali encontrei o maximbombo outra vez rolando naquelas belas páginas saídas da pena do nosso prémio Camões auto-recusado. Um dia deparei com os “100 Poemas” do Mário António e vi que o maximbombo era tão ilustre personagem de Luanda que até a poesia lhe prestava homenagem. O poema intitula-se “Linha quatro” e fala assim estes versos: “No largo da Mutamba às seis e meia/ carros pra cima carros pra baixo/ gente subindo gente descendo/ esperarei.(…)// (Gente operária na nossa frente…)// No maximbombo da linha quatro/ se sentam juntos.(…)” Nesse poema se reúnem as palavras que até hoje enchem a boca de quem trabalha em Luanda, nesse trabalhar tomado em sentido lato: a Mutamba e o maximbombo. Ontem falei da Mutamba. Hoje cumpre-me falar um coxito do nosso maximbombo, signo perdido e cujo significante reentrou hoje no conceito de autocarro. Os dicionários online são unânimes em atribuir a origem do termo à expressão inglesa “machine pump” (bomba mecânica). Mas não sei ao certo se foram os moçambicanos que primeiro puseram entre os dentes e a língua a expressão “maximbombo”, palavra bonita e comprida, para designar o autocarro de transportes públicos. O que é certo é que quando comecei a ir para o liceu, na cidade grande, apanhava todos os dias o maximbombo da linha da Cuca que me desaguava no Kinaxixi. Jamais apanhei um autocarro, eu apanhei sempre o maximbombo e foi o maximbombo que ainda apanhei depois do 11 de Novembro de 1975, até que vieram os Ícarus, se não estou em erro da Jugoslávia, bué compridos e até articulados e, quando dei conta, já toda a gente só apanhava o autocarro da Cuca, o autocarro de Viana, o autocarro do Cazenga. Só que eu gosto mesmo é do maximbombo. Não estou velho, nada disso. O maximbombo, apesar de ter saído da barriga inglesa, é uma invenção (o Luandino chama-lhe “recriação”) nossa, é mais original que autocarro, eu amo o maximbombo, é nacional e é bom, assim à maneira da fala televisionada do André Mingas. Então foi com esse gosto a maximbombo na língua que ontem, sábado à tarde, na hora de ir para a banca do Jornal de Angola, estava eu na paragem do candongueiro, ali no Zé Pirão, quando me pára frente aos dedos dos pés um maximbombo todo catita da TCUL (passe a publicidade). O cidadão que encontrei lá na paragem entrou e eu segui atrás. Paguei 50 kwanzas e recebi o troco em notinhas de cinco kwanzas, equivalentes a 20 kwanzas. Há quanto tempo eu já não pago um produto por um preço tão popular! Observei o maximbombo, com os seus bancos verdes e amarelos, o cobrador atrás da sua portinhola presa por um fiozinho de cobre, o chão a contrastar com a tabuleta no cimo do pára brisas, a nos pedir para conservarmos o meio de transporte de toda a gente e, nesse interin, o velho poema “Linha Quatro” hominiziou-se ali, intelectual-proletário sentado junto com os que caboucam sem preconceitos o futuro desta cidade. Enquanto assim ponderava sobre o nosso tempo e as nossas coisas bonitas banalizadas pelo vento da Globalização, voltei a sair na minha querida Mutamba, desta vez bem no término do lado que dá para o Palácio da Tia Chica do Espírito Santo e no concerto óptico-verbal das pessoas que enchiam o largo, senti-me mais uma raiz desta cidade feita sobre as rodas do maximbombo, o velho maximbombo de uma nova Luanda.

On September 28, 2012, Damon Thibodeaux became the 300th person (and the 18th who served time on death row) to be exonerated by DNA evidence. Just 22 when he was arrested for murdering his cousin, Thibodeaux spent 15 years in solitary confinement in Angola before he was finally freed. Combined, the 300 DNA exonerees served more than 4000 years in prison for crimes they didn’t commit. 300!!! How many more are in prison, or on Death Row even, while innocent of the crimes for which they've been accused, because of our PATHETIC legal system? OUR VOICE makes a difference, ya'll. Can YOU imagine spending 15 years in a prison like Angola FOR SOMETHING YOU DIDN'T DO?

Nengomasha did not travel to the first leg win in Harare because his club claimed he had not been called up the required 14 days before the match by the Zimbabwe Football Association. Also missing for similar reasons was the former Kaizer Chiefs striker Knowledge Musona, who is also recalled for the return encounter which will decide which of the two southern African countries qualify for the 2013 Nations Cup finals in South Africa

False confessions, a major reason for convicting the innocent. He caved in after 9 continuous hours of interrogation and told them what they wanted to hear. Then was sentenced to death for a crime he did not commit. This is why we need good lawyers and and end to the death penalty. Thank God for The Innocent Project and people like Barry Scheck. http://www.nola.com/crime/index.ssf/2012/09/marrero_man_whose_false_confes.html

GENERAL HISTORY OF AFRICA VOLUME 7 : Volume 7 examines the period of partition, conquest and occupation from the beginnings of the 'European Scramble for Africa' to the Italian fascist invasion of Ethiopia in 1935. Throughout the volume the focus is on the responses of Africans themselves to the challenge of colonialism. A general overview is followed by more detailed regional analyses. Chapters 13 to 21 concern the impact of economic and social aspects of colonial systems in Africa from 1919 to 1935; the operation of colonial economies; the emergence of new social structures and demographic patterns; and the role of religion and the arts in Africa during the colonial period. The final section traces the growth of anti-colonial movements, the strengthening of African political nationalism and the interaction between black Africa and blacks of the New World. Liberia and Ethiopia are discussed in special chapters. The series is co-published in Africa with seven publishers, in the United States and Canada by the University of California Press, and in association with the UNESCO Press. A real contribution to scholarship. The General History of Africa was launched in 1970, when an International Scientific Committee of 39 scholars was formed to oversee the writing and publication of a complete survey of the African past, from pre-history to the present. The laudable aim of the project was to break free from the straightjacket of Eurocentrism, and to provide a history that reflected a range of African views without imposing any set historical interpretation. - David M. Anderson in INTERNATIONAL AFFAIR. The result of years of work by scholars from all over the world, The UNESCO General History of Africa reflects how the different peoples of Africa view their civilizations and shows the historical relationships between the various parts of the continent. Historical connections with other continents demonstrate Africa's contribution to the development of human civilization. Each volume is lavishly illustrated and contains a comprehensive bibliography. This final volume of the acclaimed series of African history by African scholars takes on the complex political, economic, and cultural challenges the continent has faced--and still faces--in shaking off the legacy of colonialism. The book begins with Mussolini's invasion of Ethiopia in 1935 and continues on through the struggle for independence in the years following World War II. The glittering but uncertain dawn of independence that began in the 1960s has resulted in a quest for development that continues today. Editor A. A. Mazrui and his contributors address the impact of these challenges for the present and future. In his concluding chapter, Mazrui suggests that Africa still awaits two great revolutions--a sexual revolution in the roles of men and women and a scientific revolution in the skills of its people. GENERAL HISTORY OF AFRICA VOLUME 8 : Africa Since 1935 is the eighth installment in UNESCO's groundbreaking General History of Africa series, arguably the most factual and comprehensive source of information about the continent ever published. Edited by noted Kenyan scholar Ali A. Mazrui, this chronicle covers the years from the 1935 Italian invasion of Ethiopia to today's violent conflicts. More than 30 scholars contribute to show how a complex syncretization of Islam, Western language, Christianity, capitalism, socialism, and Soviet Communism ultimately forged a continent-wide response to European dominance that "Africanized Africa." Nation builders--including Tanzania's Julius Nyerere, Senegal's Leopold Senghor, Egypt's Gamal Nasser, and South Africa's Nelson Mandela, as well as despots (Uganda's Idi Amin, the former Zaire's Mobuto Sese Seko, and Ethiopia's Haile Mengistu), are equally represented. The scholars also examine the wars in Rwanda, Sierra Leone, and Angola--a violent chaos brought on by AIDS, famine, political mismanagement, economic corruption, and ethnic hatred; they also note the positive contributions of Pan-Africanism and the artistic, scientific, and moral rebirth of the continent. "[B]y fighting for their own dignity," Mazrui writes, "Africans have also shocked the rest of the world into a new appreciation of global human history. That is the story of this volume." --Eugene Holley Jr. Review "One of the most ambitious academic projects to be undertaken in this century." -- Lindsay Barrett, West Africa "The overall aim of The UNESCO General History of Africa may be said to be the Africanisation of African history through a scientific account of the ideas, civilization, societies, and traditions of the continent's peoples." -- Chinweizu, South --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Strength. Compare to today's weak minded money obsessed fools who are weakened by a deeply flawed ideology - a desire for something that doesn't even exist.

Ann Nzinga "Queen of Ndongo" (1582-1663) In the sixteenth century, the Portuguese stake in the slave trade was threatened by England and France. This caused the Portuguese to transfer their slave-trading activities southward to the Congo and South West Africa. Their most stubborn opposition, as they entered the final phase of the conquest of Angola, came from a queen who was a great head of state, and a military leader with few peers in her time. The important facts about her life are outlined by Professor Glasgow of Bowie, Maryland: “Her extraordinary story begins about 1582, the year of her birth. She is referred to as Nzingha, or Jinga, but is better known as Ann Nzingha. She was the sister of the then-reigning King of Ndongo, Ngoli Bbondi, whose country was later called Angola. Nzingha was from an ethnic group called the Jagas. The Jagas were an extremely militant group who formed a human shield against the Portuguese slave traders. Nzingha never accepted the Portuguese conquest of Angola, and was always on the military offensive. As part of her strategy against the invaders, she formed an alliance with the Dutch, who she intended to use to defeat the Portuguese slave traders.” In 1623, at the age of forty-one, Nzingha became Queen of Ndongo. She forbade her subjects to call her Queen, She preferred to be called King, and when leading an army in battle, dressed in men’s clothing. In 1659, at the age of seventy-five, she signed a treaty with the Portuguese, bringing her no feeling of triumph. Nzingha had resisted the Portuguese most of her adult life. African bravery, however, was no match for gun powder. This great African woman died in 1663, which was followed by the massive expansion of the Portuguese slave trade.

DDC | Ginebra | 29-09-2012 La Isla votó a favor de 'tener en cuenta las características culturales, históricas y religiosas' para evaluar los derechos humanos. El Consejo de Derechos Humanos de Naciones Unidas aprobó una polémica resolución rusa sobre "valores tradicionales" que ha generado alarma en la comunidad gay. Moscú recibió el apoyo de La Habana, la Liga Árabe y un grupo de países africanos. La resolución fue aprobada por 25 votos a favor, 15 en contra y siete abstenciones. Los votos positivos provinieron de Angola, Bangladesh, Burkina Faso, Camerún, China, Congo, Cuba, Djibouti, Ecuador, India, Indonesia, Jordania, Kuwait, Kirguistán, Libia, Malasia, Maldivas, Mauritania Filipinas, Qatar, Rusia, Arabia Saudita, Senegal, Tailandia y Uganda. El texto afirma que "la comprensión y el respeto por los valores tradicionales contribuye a la promoción y protección de los derechos humanos y las libertades fundamentales", según un comunicado del Ministerio de Relaciones Exteriores de Rusia. Moscú insiste en que, para evaluar los derechos humanos,"se deben tener en cuenta las características culturales, históricas y religiosas de las sociedades y los Estados". El Observatorio Cubano de Derechos LGBT señaló al respecto que el Gobierno de la Isla "perdió otra oportunidad para rectificar y cambiar las cosas". Leannes Imbert, presidenta del grupo independiente, dijo a DIARIO DE CUBA que le gustaría saber qué opina Mariela Castro sobre el apoyo cubano a la controvertida resolución. "Definitivamente, esto se va a usar como justificación para seguir negándonos nuestros derechos, entre ellos el matrimonio", afirmó la activista. En Chile, el Movimiento de Integración y Liberación Homosexual denunció que la propuesta rusa "busca que los derechos humanos sean menos relevantes que los valores tradicionales, lo que es inaceptable". Votaron en contra del texto Austria, Bélgica, Botsuana, Costa Rica, República Checa, Hungría, Italia, Mauricio, México, Noruega, Polonia, Rumania, España, Suiza y Estados Unidos. Se abstuvieron Benín, Chile, Guatemala, Nigeria, Perú, República Maldovia y Uruguay. La resolución rusa abre la puerta a interpretaciones de todo tipo, basadas en prácticas ancestrales que podrían contradecir la letra de la Declaración Universal de los Derechos Humanos.
