Using Hip-Hop As a Form of Decolonizing Public Pedagogy the Case of Didier Awadi RECLAIMING OUR SUBJUGATED TRUTHS: USING HIP-HOP AS A FORM OF DECOLONIZING PUBLIC PEDAGOGY THE CASE OF DIDIER AWADI by Joanna Daguirane Da Sylva B.A., Manhattan College, 2007 M.A., The New School University, 2010 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FUFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in The Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies (Educational Studies) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) April 2016 © Joanna Daguirane Da Sylva, 2016 Abstract When walking through the streets of Dakar, hip-hop makes its way through the radios of the city. Hip-hop has been a prominent and influential music genre and culture in Senegal since the 1980s. Hip-hop music has been used by Senegalese to cover the social, economic and political life of the country, and to promote political activism among the youth. Rapping was not born in a vacuum in Senegal but subtly continues the long-standing tradition of storytelling through spoken words and music, griotism. Moving away from hip-hop stereotypes, defined by critics as violent, racist, homophobic, sexist, materialistic, misogynistic and vulgar, my case study focuses on critical and conscious Senegalese hip-hop, which embraces hip-hop social and educational movements utilized to voice societal injustice and challenge the status quo. Senegalese hip-hop is a platform for political activists to denounce institutional racism, Western domination, poverty, and national corruption, with the hope of contributing to a better and just society that recognizes and legitimizes knowledges and voices of formerly colonized Africans. Didier Awadi is one of the most talented, conscientious, influential and revolutionary hip-hop artists and political activists of the continent. His motivation stands in the Burkinabé revolutionary Thomas Sankara, who became an icon for his statement: “dare to invent the future,” the motto for Didier Awadi’s record company Studio Sankara. In 2010, after five years of research, Didier Awadi released his ambitious multidisciplinary project Présidents d’Afrique to recount Africa’s political history and honor the founding fathers of Pan-Africanism, influential thinkers and scholars from Africa and the Diaspora. His timeless album Présidents d’Afrique uses hip-hop as a form of decolonization and public pedagogy that renders the contributions of Pan-African leaders visible to Africa and the world, contributions that have been continuously omitted, ignored, and vilified by mainstream History. ii Preface Guided by African knoweldges and histories, this thesis is an original intellectual product of the author, Joanna Daguirane Da Sylva. This thesis is not producing new knowledge per se, but is recovering and reclaiming the histories, knoweldges, words, and messages of African leaders, influential thinkers and scholars, which have been erased from dominant history. The creation of this thesis was made possible by the careful and caring supervision of Dr. Michelle Stack, Dr. André Mazawi and Dr. Hartej Gill. In addition, the participation of political hip-hop artist Didier Awadi was invaluable to this thesis. The interview conducted in chapter 5 was approved by the UBC Behavioural Research Ethics Board Certificate number H15-01714 on July 24, 2015. iii Table of Contents Table of Contents Abstract ....................................................................................................................................... ii Preface ....................................................................................................................................... iii Table of Contents .................................................................................................................... iv Glossary ..................................................................................................................................... vi Acknowledgement ................................................................................................................. vii Dedication ................................................................................................................................. ix 1.

  • New Broom in Burkina Faso?
    alexandra reza NEW BROOM IN BURKINA FASO? n late october 2014, hundreds of thousands of people poured onto the streets of Burkina Faso, incensed by Blaise Compaoré’s bid to change the constitution and seek a fifth presidential term.1 Many of their placards displayed photographs of Thomas Sankara, ICompaoré’s revolutionary predecessor. Others simply read: ‘Blaise, Get Out.’ Pressure had been building all year among citizens of the impov- erished West African state, and by October the mood had hardened. Compaoré clung on, sometimes defiant, sometimes pleading: suggesting reforms, appealing for stability, issuing reminders about the importance of the rule of law. The protests continued nonetheless. Police lined the streets. Many demonstrators were injured; at least thirty were killed. A group called Balai Citoyen (‘Citizens’ Broom’) played a key role in the protests. Balai was founded by prominent musicians: Smockey, a rapper, and the reggae artist Sams’K Le Jah, whose music helped to energize the mainly young crowd—60 per cent of Burkinabès are under 24. As well as Balai Citoyen, other social movements mobilized, among them the Mouvement Ça Suffit (‘That’s Enough’), along with trade unionists and established opposition politicians such as Zéphirin Diabré and Saran Sérémé, who had formerly been members of Compaoré’s ruling party. Sérémé and her colleague Juliette Kongo organized a major women’s protest in the capital Ouagadougou on 27 October. Thousands marched, holding wooden cooking spatulas and megaphones in the air. Eventually, on the 30th, a huge crowd—the opposition claimed it was a million strong—marched on the parliament building and breached its security cordon.

  • Rapper Im Senegal. Die Botschaft Der Straße
    RAPPER IM SENEGAL: DIE BOTSCHAFT DER STRASSE Hans-Jörg Heinrich Vorwort Der folgende Text beruht auf Beobachtungen und Recherchen zu meinem Film Botschafter ihres Volkes1 und bezieht sich in weiten Teilen auf die im Rahmen des Films erstellten Interviews und Gespräche 2 mit senega- lesischen Rappern sowie deren Fans. Ergänzt wird der Aufsatz durch die Lektüre ausgewählter Berichte und Aufsätze, die im Internet zu finden waren. Es handelt sich um die Entwicklung des senegalesischen Rap sowie um eine Situationsbeschreibung aus den Jahren 2003 bis 2005. Die senegalesi- sche Rapszene ist die erste frankophone afrikanische und nach der südafri- kanischen die am weitesten entwickelte und einflussreichste Szene des af- rikanischen Kontinents. Rap ² ein weltweites Phänomen Seit den 1970er Jahren hält der Rap seinen Siegeszug um die Welt. Urs- prünglich von ausgegrenzten Jugendlichen meist dunkler Hautfarbe in den Wohnblocks der Bronx entwickelt, wächst die Lust am Reimen bei Jugend- lichen insbesondere in den ärmsten Ländern und in ausgegrenzten Bevölke- rungsschichten. So gibt es HipHop in den Vorstädten der großen afrikani- schen und lateinamerikanischen Städte ebenso wie in den Reservaten der australischen Aborigins oder der kleinen Insel Réunion, an der Universität von Dakar oder in einer deutschen Kleinstadt. Auch ist Rap schon lange kein ausschließlich urbanes Phänomen mehr. So gibt es den Bauern in der Schweiz, der von seinem Trecker herunterrappt, ebenso wie denjenigen in 1 Vgl.
