Making the fundamental break with tradition involved in a real conunitment to te caune of African freedom and independence would undoubtedly have far-reaching repercussions. But is it so muth to ask? Remember, a growing number of local authorities - Sheffield. Glasgow, leeds, Newcastle, Brent, Harlow, Camden and Islington among others - have already made that policy break by declaring apartheid-free zones in the areas under theirjurisdtc. tion or taking other important steps in solidarity with the South African and Naniblanlibergtion movements.

  • Echoes of an African Drum: the Lost Literary Journalism of 1950S South Africa
    DRUM 7 Writer/philosopher Can Themba, 1952. Photo by Jürgen Schadeberg, www.jurgenshadeberg.com. Themba studied at Fort Hare University and then moved to the Johannesburg suburb of Sophiatown. He joined the staff of Drum magazine after winning a short-story competition and quickly became the most admired of all Drum writers. 8 Literary Journalism Studies, Vol. 8, No. 1, Spring 2016 The Drum office, 1954. Photo by Jürgen Schadeberg, www.jurgenshadeberg.com. The overcrowded Johannesburg office housed most of Drum’s journalists and photographers.

Todd Matshikiza was away. 9 Echoes of an African Drum: The Lost Literary Journalism of 1950s South Africa Lesley Cowling University of the Witwatersrand, South Africa (or Johannesburg) Abstract: In post-apartheid South Africa, the 1950s era has been romanti- cized through posters, photographs, a feature film, and television commer- cials. Much of the visual iconography and the stories come from the pages of Drum, a black readership magazine that became the largest circulation publication in South Africa, and reached readers in many other parts of the continent. Despite the visibility of the magazine as a cultural icon and an extensive scholarly literature on Drum of the 1950s, the lively journalism of the magazine’s writers is unfamiliar to most South Africans. Writers rather than journalists, the early Drum generation employed writing strategies and literary tactics that drew from popular fiction rather than from reporterly or literary essay styles.

  • Non-Racial Casting in African Theatre and Cinema
    NON-RACIAL CASTING IN AFRICAN THEATRE AND CINEMA Connie Rapoo & David Kerr1 Abstract Racial and non-racial casting in theatre and cinema has become a widely, and sometimes hotly discussed issue in European and North American performance. The debates are fuelled by the increasing popularity of experimental, post-colonial and inter-cultural performance. However, there has been little such debate in Africa, even though there are many examples of performances which play with cross-racial conventions and stereotyping. This paper interrogates indigenous traditions of non–racial casting, the influence of popular European forms such as minstrelsy, and problems of casting in the realistic tradition of African theatre and cinema. The dialectic of all these traditions impacts on identities in post-colonial and post-apartheid performance. The article uses analytic tools of theatre and performance theory to interrogate the casting practices and principles. Keywords: non-racial casting, creative resistance, blackface, African theatre, stylized performance. 1. Introduction When American actor, Ted Danson appeared at a New York Friars Club Roast in 1993 in blackface, a huge controversy arose, mainly because Danson’s appearance evoked a history that resonates with the offensive and derogatory representations that minstrel performances evoke in the United States. In comparison, an all too familiar act appears in Leon Schuster’s There is a Zulu on My Stoop, (Gray Hofmeyr, 1993) featuring the White-classified Schuster as a Black man [in blackface] and Black actor John Matshikiza as a White man [wearing whiteface]. Similarly, the Afrikaner-Jewish satirist Pieter-Dirk Uys has featured prominently in Black roles, such as his characteristic drag act and impersonation of Winnie Madikizela-Mandela, clad in cultural paraphernalia and a t-shirt imprinted with Nelson Mandela’s portrait in Truth Ommissions (Uys, 1996).

A “jazz opera” based on the life of a local African boxer (and not the overgrown gorilla from American cinema), King Kong featured an African composer and all-black cast, including many of the most prominent local musicians and singers of the era. The rest of the play’s management, including director, music director, lyricist, writer and choreographer, were overwhelmingly white South Africans.

Amsterdam: Rodopi, 2005. 375 pp. $103 cloth. e negritude movement had Présence Africaine; the Harlem Renaissance had Crisis and Opportunity; South African writers of the 1950s had Drum maga- zine. Paul Gready has written that Drum’s “flashy muck-raking journalistic style attempted to capture the vivid life of the townships. Drum became a symbol of a new urban South Africa” (146); for Rob Nixon, it “amplified the voices of a defiantly impure cosmopolitanism, projecting an urban look and ethos” (28). Lewis Nkosi, who went to work for the magazine in 1957, said that Drum “wasn’t so much a magazine as it was a symbol of the new African cut adrift from the tribal reserve—urbanised, eager, fast-talking and brash” (Home and Exile 8). e magazine serialized novels by Alan Paton and Peter Abrahams, and occasionally published the work of black American writers like Langston Hughes. Perhaps the most important function Drum played, though, was to serve as a launching pad for the careers of a whole generation of young black and mixed-race fiction writers and journalists: Bloke Modisane, Can emba, James Matthews, Peter Clarke, Arthur Maimane, and Richard Rive, among others, published their earliest work in the pages of Drum, and Ezekiel Mphahlele reached a wider audience through the magazine’s readership. Michael Chapman pays tribute to this remarkable legacy in his invaluable little collection e Drum Decade.
