Through the use of the Gattlin gun and other modern murderous weapons of the day, Africans were decimated, and wiped out and the enslavement of the Khoi and the San, were implemented and initiated; the Eastern Cape Frontier wars between the Xhosa, the Boers and the English, up to the Zulu wars, Blood River being one and numerous others, were the favorite forms of genocide perpetuated against the Africans of South Africa; up to the depression and conquering of the Bapedi, the Batswana along the boarders of Botswana, and those living in South Africa, to the point where Swaziland and Lesotho became British Protectorates and vassals(in a colonial sense). But African literature is an autonomous entity separate and apart from all other literatures. It has its own traditions, models and norms. Its constituency is separate and radically different from that of the Europeans or other literature. And its historical and cultural imperatives impose upon it concerns and constraints quite different, sometimes altogether antithetical to the European. Ephraim ‘The Black Prince’ Sono (also known as ‘Jomo’, ‘Troublemaker’, ‘Mjomana’, ‘Bra J’) – he got the nickname ‘Jomo’, which most people think is his real name, after the first president of Kenya, Jomo Kenyatta, while the moniker ‘Black Prince’ was given to him at the height of the Black Consciousness movement.

Although many of the big firms required a college degree, there were more and more boiler rooms popping up where young hotshots without a college education realized they could make a small fortune in a short period of time by bending the rules or breaking them altogether. Wall Street wannabes, these boiler rooms copied the trading floors right down to attire. The new trend of the eighties was the sharp-dressed man. A guy who drove a fast car, had a blonde bombshell off the pages of Playboy, and wore bold suits with even bigger cell phones. It was all about image, and the Wall Street trends quickly spread across the nation. “I was invited to present a paper at the Interdenominational Theological Seminary in Atlanta on the topic, The Spiritual State of Black American.†I identified 12 Challenges for African People†in my response to this theme. The big picture for Africans is the same everywhere in the world, because hegemonic structures are global.
Customary law combined forms of dispute resolution ranging from rituals of reconciliation to banning and capital punishment. A combination of discussion and the use of oracles still is used in most cultures. Since the colonial era, the jurisdiction of local chiefs and councils has eroded. Informal social control mechanisms include gossip, ostracism, and fear of occult, ancestral, or divine retribution for wrongdoings. The villages of the Nayar abound with celebrations of life, love, prosperity and even death, as with a man who remains pure for a year following a death in the family. The spiritual beliefs in a Nayar community, for the most part revolve around magic and superstition, as opposed to traditional Hindu religion, though they do recognize many Hindu deities.

Agriculture employs—directly or indirectly— about one-quarter of the Brazilian labor force. Five million agricultural workers are wage laborers concentrated in the plantations of the North (sugarcane, cotton, coffee, cocoa) and the increasingly mechanized agricultural enterprises of the Southeast and South (soybeans, wheat, sugar, oranges). More than 70 percent of these workers lack contracts and social benefits and less than 40 percent are employed year round. There are also 4.8 million landless families who survive as tenant farmers, sharecroppers, and casual laborers. Adding half a cup of honey to your bathwater makes an excellent beauty solution that can improve the texture of your skin, making it feel smoother and softer. 2. We have acute amnesia, with no valid memories or awareness of ourselves as a historical people evolving through time and spreading throughout the world. We are episodic in our experience of ourselves. Cities have played an important role in Brazilian history. After all, few other countries have had three national capitals. During the colonial period when sugar was king, the nation’s locus was the northeast coast and Salvador was the colonial capital. Then with the eighteenth century gold boom centered in the state of Minas Gerais in the southeastern part of the country, the capital was moved to Rio de Janeiro where it remained until the founding of BrasÃlia in 1960.
