  • Malawi's Orphans
    CHAPTER FOURTEEN MALAWI’S ORPHANS: CHILDREN’S RIGHTS IN RELATION TO HUMANITARIANISM, COMPASSION, AND CHILDCARE Andrea Freidus1 My first reaction is the feeling of helplessness, and hopelessness. Seeing so many eyes of the orphans, innocent and pure makes me feel a little over- whelmed…Poverty and HIV/AIDS, malaria, are now all over southern Africa… Without a heart of compassion and love, without a true passion in helping and offering Madonna could not do this. So I give more credit to her now than before, and I see this as a gift to Malawi rather than a tool of celebrity propaganda. —MSU undergraduate after viewing Madonna’s documentary on Malawi. As an assignment for a women’s studies undergraduate course, students viewed the film “I am Because We Are.” Produced by Madonna to raise awareness about her organization, Raising Malawi, it focuses on the situa- tion of orphans and AIDS in Malawi. Students were asked to respond to the content of the documentary including their perceptions of orphans in Malawi, their overall reaction, and the film’s impact on their desire to be connected or involved with these issues. The above quote is one of many that captures the ability of humanitarians and the organizations they sup- port to use the media to foster an emotional response. This response is based on the recognition of a common humanity and the need to address suffering. The student’s reaction highlights the power of the image of the orphan to bring about a sense of compassion drawing on the innocence of children.

Using Beyoncé’s 2016 Superbowl 50 halftime show and NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick’s 2016 “Take a Knee” protest as case studies, I employ discursive textual analysis to thematically unpack how these celebrities and their political activism is articulated and debated within mainstream news media. My analysis reveals multiple competing discourses that situate Beyoncé and Kaepernick as both inspiring political leaders and dangerous, militant figures.

The study aims at gaining understanding of how various media sources from Malawian, Liberian, African and the international media have represented Joyce Banda and Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, as well as how the female presidents have represented themselves in media. The research questions focus on gender and leadership: 1.) How has gender defined the political leadership of African female presidents: Joyce Banda and Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, according to English-language media sources? 2.) How has gen- der defined the presentation of these presidents in the media? The data consists of altogether twenty-seven news articles (including newspaper articles, interviews, columns, doc- umentaries) and fourteen YouTube videos by Malawian, Liberian, African, and the international media, as well as Ellen Johnson Sirleaf’s memoir, and the website of Joyce Banda Foundation.

It could also involve a person recovering from an addiction or a successful surgery. How will the world respect them if they are a butt of jokes in their own country. And defining roles in coming of age films seem to run in the family, especially when it comes to Jonah and his sister Beanie Feldstein. I can believe this because the pictures of the rooms Nox is pictured in are a far cry from the flamboyant celebrity he appears to be on social media. She has also worked with many campaigns, such as those aimed at ending violence against women and eliminating world hunger.

    lifestyle WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 8, 2017 FEATURES Madonna adopts twin girls from Malawi S superstar Madonna adopted two four-year-old twin girls from Malawi yesterday, a court official in ULilongwe told AFP, adding to two other children she previously adopted from the country. Just two weeks ago, the singer denied that she was involved in any adoption application in Malawi after news of her court case first emerged. "I can confirm that Madonna has been granted an adoption order for two children," judicial spokesman Mlenga Mvula told AFP, adding they were twins called Esther and Stella. Madonna, who set up a charity called Raising Malawi in the southern African nation in 2006, adopted Malawian children David Banda in 2006 and Mercy James in 2009. Her publicist was not immediately available for com- ment yesterday following the court ruling. On January 24, the singer had appeared before Justice Fiona Mwale, accompanied by two unidentified children and several oth- er people, before being driven away in an SUV vehicle. Later that day Madonna told US magazine People in a statement that "the rumors of an adoption process are untrue."
