Percentage of enslaved children sold to British slave traders at the Bight of Biafra xi My conceptual journey to this study began before I learned how to read and write. Growing up in the ­s while the Igbo recuperated from the traumas of the –­ Nigerian Civil War, my grandmother, a keen host for our regular moonlight tales, would jokingly chide the kids arriving late from the composite households with the au fait: “He who arrives at the middle of a story leaves with a disjointed narrative.” Her words echo an Igbo saying: “When a man who was absent at a burial exhumes the corpse, the village should be prepared to deal with a disembodied cadaver.” While both proverbs underscore the imperative of complete and accurate mastery of a subject in general, they particularly chal- lenge students of Africana Studies to ensure grounded knowledge of the com- plex and intricate nuances of the African roots of African American history and culture they market. Otherwise, the ominous risk is to produce incoherent and disjointed accounts. In this book, I bring an African voice to the copious volumes of studies on African and African Diaspora linkages by focusing on African-styled masquer- ade carnivals. Taking into account the unique roles masquerades played in the indigenous society, the voice with African linguistic, ethnic, and cultural roots is crucial so not to have the details muddled in translation in an age of modernist thinking. The book informs the reader where, when, and how the African mas- querade genre was invented and explains the life force behind the festival play. Masquerading in the Africana world was a dynamic device of narratology. For the enslaved people, the art of masquerade engagee was one of the most po- tent survival devices in the Americas. By exploring the origins, religious idioms, symbols, internal and diasporic diusions, and the music, dance, and drama that accompany the masquerade tradition, the result is to see beyond the jamboree displays, which most people have identied with carnivals everywhere today. With a Pan-African approach contextualized in change-over-time-and-space argument, this book also speaks to the connection between Bantu migration and the ethnic complexity and spread of masquerade culture across the con- tinent and beyond. In addressing this theme, I provide a richer and fuller ac- count of both the internal dynamics and the multiple and multifaceted cultural xiv Preface connections between Africa and the African Diasporas without reifying culture as something cast in stone. The Bantu-African masquerade genre that evolved from the Bight of Biafra hinterland is adaptive and was in constant ux prior to the beginning of the transatlantic slave trade. Its presence in the Americas was an extension of the uid Bantuization process outside Africa by way of creolization. Bearing in mind the agitated debates it conjures, the Bantu paradigm de- serves further clarication. As employed here, Bantu as a concept is more than the language question; it is symbolic for precolonial cultural inventions and the hybridities that connect African societies across regional lines. Colonial schol- ars who pioneered Bantu studies and classied African languages into dier- ent families admitted that they did not understand fully the etymologies and complex nuances of African languages and the culture they carry. As a result, the early Bantu scholars placed the Igbo language among the Kwa subfamily of the parent Niger-Congo family. The colonial scholars discounted the fact that the Cross River Igbo (including Ábám, Ábiribá, Ákpo, Arọchukwu, Èddá, Ezzikwo, Ihe, Igbèrè, Ikwo, Isu, Nkporo, Ọháá, Ọkpọsi, Uburu, Unwáná, and Ututu) share similar history, culture, and language with their Èk, Ibibio, Ijọ, and Èkọi neighbors who were classied into the Bantu subfamily group of the Niger-Congo group. In a eld of history where the word of the colonial scholar oen carries the same weight as a papal bull, it is critical to start rethinking some of the serious aws inherent in these received sweeping ideas in order to turn a new corner in African history. Aer eminent scholars such as Adiele Ebere- chukwu Agbo, Ogbu Kalu, and Ebiegberi Joe Alagoa, I reiterate here that the Igbo language, particularly the various dialects spoken among the Cross River Igbo, align more to the Bantu subfamily than the Kwa subgroup. I owe numerous individuals immense gratitude for their assistance in com- pleting this project. From the very beginning, Baldwin Anyasodo, Chidi G. Osuagwu, Joseph Bangura, Emmanuel Amadife, Apollos Nwauwa, Dimeji To- gunde, John McLeod, Thomas Mackey, Tracy K’Meyer, Christine Ehrick, and Francis O. C.

Krogstad Mambo from West Side Story Leonard Bernstein 2 Many thanks to the Elgin Symphony’s education committee for the idea to take this concert on a world tour! It was a unanimous choice: let’s sample orchestral music from the world’s seven continents. Choosing the repertoire for the concert was not as easy as we thought it might be during the conception of this program. How can we narrow down the large quantity of orchestral music from Europe, where the symphony orchestra originated? Bach, Mozart, Brahms, Beethoven would all be obvious choices. In a surprising twist we chose a composer from Poland, the home of the brilliant violinist and composer Henryk Wieniawski. We are thrilled to have young violinist Claire Arias-Kim as our soloist for Wieniawski’s Polonaise brilliante No. 2. What repertoire can we choose from the continents with musical traditions that don’t necessarily include traditional western orchestral instruments? What do we do about Antarctica? (We always try to program something that’s just pure fun.) For Africa, we felt it was important to demonstrate the drumming traditions and to highlight the expertise of one of our members, percussionist Michael Folker. It became a concert of interesting connections.

  • NEW ORLEANS NOSTALGIA Remembering New Orleans History, Culture and Traditions by Ned Hémard
    NEW ORLEANS NOSTALGIA Remembering New Orleans History, Culture and Traditions By Ned Hémard Shall We Dance Dancing has been an essential part of New Orleans’ psyche almost since its very beginning. Pierre François de Rigaud, Marquis de Vaudreuil-Cavagnal replaced Bienville, the city’s founder, as Governor of Louisiana. He set the standards high with his polished manners, frequently sponsoring balls, dinners, and other elegant social soirées. Serving from 1743 to 1753, he even provided the colony with a Parisian dancing master named Baby. Below are numerous quotes through the ages about the Crescent City’s special love affair with dancing: There were balls, with court dress de rigueur, where gaily uniformed officers danced with bejeweled women. This was the beginning of fashionable life in the colony. - LYLE SAXON, writing of “de Vaudreuil’s régime” in Old Louisiana The eccentricities of Baby's mind, as well as those of his physical organization had made him famous in the colony, and the doleful mien with which he used to give his lessons, had gained him the appellation of the Don Quixote of dancing. -Louisiana Historian CHARLES GAYARRÉ on Baby, the Dancing Master The female Creoles being in general without education, can possess no taste for reading music or drawing, but they are passionately fond of dancing … passing whole nights in succession in this exercise. - PIERRE-LOUIS BERQUIN-DUVALLON, Travels in Louisiana and the Floridas in the Year 1802, Giving the Correct Picture of Those Countries It’s the land where they dance more than any other. - LOUIS-NARCISSE BAUDRY DES LOZIÈRES, Second Voyage à la Louisiane, 1803 Upon my arrival at New Orleans, I found the people very Solicitous to maintain their Public Ball establishment, and to convince them that the American Government felt no disposition to break in upon their amusements … - GOVERNOR W.

  • A Historical Survey of Socio-Political Administration in Akure Region up to the Contemporary Period
    European Scientific Journal August edition vol. 8, No.18 ISSN: 1857 – 7881 (Print) e - ISSN 1857- 7431 A HISTORICAL SURVEY OF SOCIO-POLITICAL ADMINISTRATION IN AKURE REGION UP TO THE CONTEMPORARY PERIOD Afe, Adedayo Emmanuel, PhD Department of Historyand International Studies,AdekunleAjasin University,Akungba-Akoko, Ondo State, Nigeria Abstract Thepaper examines the political transformation of Akureregion from the earliest times to the present. The paper traces these stages of political development in order to demonstrate features associated with each stage. It argues further that pre-colonial Akure region, like other Yoruba regions, had a workable political system headed by a monarch. However, the Native Authority Ordinance of 1916, which brought about the establishment of the Native Courts and British judicial administration in the region led to the decline in the political power of the traditional institution.Even after independence, the traditional political institution has continually been subjugated. The work relies on both oral and written sources, which were critically examined. The paper, therefore,argues that even with its present political status in the contemporary Nigerian politics, the traditional political institution is still relevant to the development of thesociety. Keywords: Akure, Political, Social, Traditional and Authority Introduction The paper reviews the political administration ofAkure region from the earliest time to the present and examines the implication of the dynamics between the two periods may have for the future. Thus,assessment of the indigenous political administration, which was prevalent before the incursion of the colonial administration, the political administration during the colonial rule and the present political administration in the region are examined herein.However, Akure, in this context, comprises the present Akure North, Akure South, and Ifedore Local Government Areas of Ondo State, Nigeria.

The study identified most of all the known rivers in Imo State and provided information like relief, topography and other geographical features of the major rivers which are crucial to aid water management for a sustainable water infrastructure in the communities of the watershed. The rivers and lakes are classified into five watersheds (river basins) such as Okigwe watershed, Mbaise / Mbano watershed, Orlu watershed, Oguta watershed and finally, Owerri watershed. The knowledge of the river basins in Imo State will help analyze the problems involved in water resources allocation and to provide guidance for the planning and management of water resources in the state for sustainable development. Keywords: Rivers; Basins/Watersheds; Water allocation; • What minimum reservoir capacity will be sufficient to assure Sustainability adequate water for irrigation or municipal water supply, during droughts? Introduction • How much quantity of water will become available at a reservoir An understanding of the hydrology of a region or state is paramount site, and when will it become available?
