We Love You! But why? Africans came before Columbus to fraternize with Native Americans (Sertima, 1976). But since 1492 we have been terrorized along with the natives. Transportation, Auction, Plantation, Revolution, Emancipation, Liberation, and still we love you, America! Did you put voodoo on us or are your adorable Hollywood monsters so irresistible? I went to a conference on ‘Their America’ with a determination to address the second half of the organizers’ charge, the half that was not about why America is hated but without spelling it out in terms of love for America; that half of the coin of hatred appears to be the side of love too shy to be named but no less passionate than the side of hate. Their America is also ours to dream, to love, to seek, to save! Why do we love this God’s own country of theirs? Is it because our African ancestors before us slaved for this country, as Bob Marley queried? We built the cabin and we planted the corn. Yet Editorial: Their Americans: Why Do We Love Em So? Biko Agozino they look at us with a scorn while they eat up all our corn.

Sunday, April 3 @ 7 PM Zellerbach Theatre Part of the African Roots, American Voices series. 15/16 Season 45 ABOUT THE ARTISTS Johnny Clegg is one of South Africa’s most celebrated sons. He is a singer, songwriter, dancer, anthropologist and musical activist whose infectious crossover music, a vibrant blend of Western pop and African Zulu rhythms, has exploded onto the international scene and broken through all the barriers in his own country. In France, where he enjoys a massive following, he is fondly called Le Zulu Blanc – the white Zulu. Over three decades, Clegg has sold over five million albums of his brand of crossover music worldwide. He has wowed vast audiences with his audacious live shows and won a number of national and international awards for his music and his outspoken views on apartheid, perspectives on migrant workers in South Africa and the general situation in the world today. Clegg’s history is as bold, colorful and dashing as the rainbow country which he has called home for more than 40 years. Clegg was born in Bacup, near Rochdale, England, in 1953, but was brought up in Zimbabwe and South Africa. Between his mother (a cabaret and jazz singer) and his step-father (a crime reporter who took him into the townships at an early age), Clegg was exposed to a broader cultural perspective than that available to his peers.
