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. -
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. -

Nationalism in Marginalized African Societies∗
NATION-STATE OR NATION-FAMILY?NATIONALISM IN MARGINALIZED AFRICAN SOCIETIES∗ Forthcoming in the Journal of Modern African Studies Abhit Bhandariy Lisa Muellerz December 26, 2018 Scholars have long puzzled over strong nationalism in weak African states. Existing theories suggest that a) incumbent leaders use nationalistic appeals to distract people from state weak- ness; or b) citizens use nationalistic claims to exclude rival groups from accessing patronage and public goods. But what explains robust nationalism in places where politicians seldom visit and where the state under-provides resources, as is true across much of Africa? We pro- pose a theory of familial nationalism, arguing that people profess attachment to a nation-family instead of to a nation-state under conditions where the family, and not the state, is the main lifeline. We substantiate it using surveys from the border between Niger and Burkina Faso, where an international court ruling allowed people to choose their citizenship, thus providing a test for nationalism in marginalized communities. We supplement the border data with surveys and focus groups from the capitals of both countries. ∗For invaluable research assistance and data collection we thank Thierno Mamadou Sow, Bachirou Ayouba Tinni, and Adam Malah. We thank Amadou Tankoana for insight on his role in the ICJ border dispute case and Issa Abdou Yonlihinza for his input on mining in western Niger. For helpful comments we thank seminar participants at ASA, APSA, Northwestern, and WGAPE. The DeWitt Wallace Fund provided generous fieldwork funding.

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.
