  • Wildlife in an Ethiopian Valley by Emil K
    342 Oryx Wildlife in an Ethiopian Valley By Emil K. Urban and Leslie H. Brown On several flights and safaris in the lower Omo River valley the authors and others recorded the numbers of larger mammals they saw. The results showed no regular general migration pattern, although certain species showed trends, notably eland, zebra, elephant and Lelwel's hartebeest which moved into the area after the rains and out again when the grass died. Dr Urban is working in the Department of Biology in the Haile Sellassie I University in Addis Ababa. Leslie Brown, well known Kenya naturalist, is a UNESCO wildlife consultant. HERE are large numbers of mammals in the plains and foothills on T either side of the lower Omo River, including game animals, some in large concentrations, that have been reduced or are extinct eleswhere in Ethiopia. These mammals, their seasonal movements and population den- sities have not been documented and are very little known, although it is suspected that their movements in the lower Omo plains are related to more widespread movements in the Sudan. This paper reports scattered observations of larger mammals in the area between January 1965 and June 1967. They are, needless to say, inadequate for a full picture of the migratory game movements. Between us we made five trips: January 1965, LHB and Ian Grimwood; March, EKU; September, EKU; December, EKU and John Blower; and March 1967, LHB. In addition John Blower, Senior Game Warden of the Imperial Ethiopian Government's Wild Life Conservation Depart- ment, visited the area in October 1965 and February 1966, and G.

  • Stepping Into Selma: Voting Rights History and Legacy Today
    Stepping Into Selma: Voting Rights History and Legacy Today Background In this 50th anniversary year of the Selma-to-Montgomery March and the Voting Rights Act it helped inspire, national media will predictably focus on the iconic images of “Bloody Sunday,” the words of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., the interracial marchers, and President Lyndon Johnson signing the Voting Rights Act. This version of history, emphasizing a top-down narrative and isolated events, reinforces the master narrative that civil rights activists describe as “Rosa sat down, Martin stood up, and the white folks came south to save the day.” But there is a “people’s history” of Selma that we all can learn from—one that is needed, especially now. The exclusion of Blacks and other people of color from voting is still a live issue. Sheriff’s deputies may no longer be beating people to keep them from registering to vote, but institutionalized racism continues. For example, in 2013 the Supreme Court ruled in Shelby v. Holder that the Justice Department may no longer evaluate laws passed in the former Confederacy for racial bias. And as a new movement emerges, insisting that “Black Lives Matter,” young people can draw inspiration and wisdom from the courage, imagination, and accomplishments of activists who went before. [From article by Emilye Crosby.] This lesson on the people in Selma’s voting rights movement is based on an effective format that has been used with students and teachers to introduce a variety of themes including the history and literature of Central America, the U.S.

  • Selma Civil Rights Movement
    50 Landmarks for a 50th Anniversary The Selma Civil Rights Trail 50 LANDMARKS FOR A 50TH ANNIVERSARY In the summer of 1965, Congress passed and President Lyndon B. Johnson signed the Voting Rights Act, one of the most momentous civil rights laws in American history. Events that had happened in Selma earlier that year pushed Congress to create this landmark law. African American citizens took courageous actions that not only changed their lives and communities but that also reshaped the United States, giving all citizens a new taste of freedom and equality. This driving tour of landmarks associated with Selma’s Civil Rights Movement includes 50 properties—some well recognized from the events of 50 years ago but many others that speak to the deeper story of the struggle for civil rights. All of these places help tell the whole story of what the Civil Rights Movement meant to Selma, to Alabama, and to the nation. Many places welcome visitors but others remain private. Visitors should respect property rights and only view those buildings from the city sidewalks. 1. National Voting Rights Museum and Institute 6 U.S. Highway 80 www.nvrmi.com Open daily from Monday to Thursday and on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday by appointment. Admission charged.
