    e édition festival dyonisien migrateur musiques — créations rencontres 17 nov. → 24 déc. 2017 Edito edito Petites et grandes histoires Tout récit est tissé de paroles, de silences, d’oublis, de souvenirs refabriqués, de fictions devenues légendes. Pour son édition 2017, Africolor fait une scène de ces fictions, imaginaires, petites et grandes histoires. Entre le temps fort consacré à Mé 67 et la jet-set imaginaire du coupé-décalé, entre le centenaire de Jean Rouch et le Pas de Côté consacré aux traditions inventées, le festival naviguera de souvenirs douloureux en fictions hilarantes, de récits des routes musicales en cérémonies aux ancêtres, entre vérités plurielles et créations enjaillées. Ce sont les artistes eux-mêmes qui seront les faiseurs d’histoires : Kar Kar pour nous faire écouter le lien entre Louisiane et Mali, Naïssam Jalal et Noura Mint Seymali, Abou Diarra et Mehdi Nassouli pour relier le Nord et le Sud de l’Afrique de l’Ouest ; Ann O’aro, Tao Ravao, Mounawar, Danyèl Waro et Absoir pour raconter les créolités de l’Océan Indien ; Jupiter et Lexxus Legal, Roberto Negro et Valentin Ceccaldi, pour nous conter les transes urbaines du Kinshasa d’aujourd’hui. Entre histoires d’exils et rencontres transatlantiques, Africolor fera aussi une place aux artistes arrivants, soudanais ou syriens, pour une grande soirée à la toute nouvelle MC93 avec la complicité d’Alsarah, la plus brooklynienne des soudanaises. Puis, comme un retour aux origines du festival, Malisadio sera le spectacle autour du Mali, de ses musiques et de sa société. Écrit par Vladimir Cagnolari et Vincent Lassalle, tout en rythmes et en humour, ce spectacle sur le Mali d’aujourd’hui sera un peu l’histoire d’Africolor, qui pour ses 28 ans est toujours farouchement dionysien et migrateur à la fois.

  • Sudan: Colonialism, Independence, and Conflict
    Sudan: Colonialism, Independence, and Conflict Overview Students will analyze the impact of colonization on Sudan including regional divisions, independence movements, and conflict. Students will understand the various economic, political, and societal factors that have led to wars in the region. Students will also learn that these conflicts have led to migration out of Sudan, exploring cultural and artistic production of Sudanese people in the diaspora. Students will learn that the effects of decolonization and ethnic conflict have been a push factor for African migration in the new wave of diaspora. Essential/Compelling Question(s) How has the legacy of colonization and imperialism impacted Sudan? How has conflict in Sudan affected the country’s politics, economy, and society? How are human rights affected in times of conflict? Grade(s) 9-12 Subject(s) World History North Carolina Essential Standards WH.8: Analyze global interdependence and shifts in power in terms of political, economic, social and environmental changes and conflicts since the last half of the twentieth century. WH.H.8.3: Analyze the "new" balance of power and the search for peace and stability in terms of how each has influenced global interactions since the last half of the twentieth century (e.g., post WWII, Post Cold War, 1990s Globalization, New World Order, Global Achievements and Innovations). WH.8.6: Explain how liberal democracy, private enterprise and human rights movements have reshaped political, economic and social life in Africa, Asia, Latin America, Europe, the Soviet Union and the United States (e.g., U.N. Declaration of Human Rights, end of Cold War, apartheid, perestroika, glasnost, etc.).

  • Incorporating Aghani Al-Banat Into a Western Popular Music Recording Project
    Copyright is owned by the Author of the thesis. Permission is given for a copy to be downloaded by an individual for the purpose of research and private study only. The thesis may not be reproduced elsewhere without the permission of the Author. Haja: Incorporating Aghani Al-Banat into a Western Popular Music Recording Project An exegesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree Masters of Fine Arts at Massey University, Wellington New Zealand Jonathan Toogood 2018 Abstract The album ‘Haja’ is a cross-cultural collaboration based around recordings I made of female artists from Sudan who perform a traditional form of music called Aghani Al-Banat (girls songs). Working class in origin, Aghani Al-Banat is only performed and composed by women and is predominantly heard at wedding ceremonies in accompaniment of the traditional Sudanese bridal dance called the Subhia. After hearing this music at my own wedding in Khartoum, I returned there a year later to record with two separate Aghani Al- Banat groups including one that played at my wedding led by Gisma, a famous Ghanaya (woman who plays Aghani Al-Banat). This was done with the intention of merging this music with my own, being western contemporary pop and then embarking on a process of further collaboration with contemporary popular artists from New Zealand. This experiment was undertaken in order to determine from a purely musical perspective what, if any, were the unifying themes shared by the two different forms of music. Secondly, by juxtaposing the source material with that of the female artists from New Zealand I collaborated with, bring attention to the commonalities between the lives and the work of female artists from two entirely different parts of the world (both with major differences in history, culture, religion and government).

  • Beats of the Antonov a Film by Hajooj Kuka
    POV Community Engagement & Education DISCUSSION GUIDE Beats of the Antonov A Film by hajooj kuka www.pbs.org/pov LETTER FROM THE FILMMAKER I am from Sudan. I live between Nuba Mountains in Sudan and Nairobi, Kenya, but I have always stayed abreast of events in Sudan—the mass atrocities, the civil war—and wanted to make sense out of it all. Initially, I wished that a Sudanese person I trusted would actually relate what’s happening there. But Sudanese media is just not covering these events well, and there are always rumors that the news out of the West is fabricated. Indeed, a lot of the clips I saw coming out of the area seemed very shallow. They portrayed people simply as victims. I wanted to give my people a voice. I’m a filmmaker and I have the energy, so I decided to go to Sudan my - self. Initially, my goal was to make a film focused on the atrocities tak - ing place since the country separated into Sudan and South Sudan in 2011. Because of my previous campaign work, in the Sudanese elections of 2010, I had access to the camps where new Sudanese refugees arrive every day. But when I went there, I discovered that this story was more nuanced than even I had expected. These people are so much more than just victims. They have a strong identity and they really know who they are and why they’re Filmmaker hajooj kuka. fighting and why all these things are happening to them. They have Photo courtesy of hajooj kuka a surprising amount of hope, and they believe their lives are actu - ally going to become better.

  • The Nile Project: Music Making for Peace in the Nile Basin Region
    Music and Arts in Action | Volume 6 | Issue 1 The Nile Project: Music making for peace in the Nile Basin Region KELLY MANCINI BECKER The College of Education and Social Service | The University of Vermont | U.S.A* ABSTRACT The use of music in peacebuilding is a new and emerging field. Yet there is sparse empirical evidence on its outcomes. The Nile Project is a musical collaborative from East Africa that brings together musicians from all of the countries that border the Nile River and is aimed at finding a solution to the dire water crisis in the region. This study explored how musicians from The Nile Project, despite their linguistic, cultural, musical, and political differences collaborated to create a unified sound. Using a combination of qualitative and arts-informed research methodologies, original members of the collective, as well as the co-founder, were interviewed. Observations were also done of the musicians’ rehearsals, performances, and classroom visits at two New England Universities and at their “gathering” in Aswan, Egypt. Findings suggest that an outcome of The Nile Project’s work is that the process of making music with those from diverse musical traditions can act as a way to practice peacebuilding skills. The act of music making encouraged musicians to “bend” in effort to play together often altering or adapting their musical scales. This may have been a chance for musicians to embody “unity in diversity.” This study seeks to add to the limited research on the use of music for peacebuilding offering the musicians’ perspective, which has been identified as a need.
