    SOUTHERN AFRICA NEWS BULLETIN Committee on Southern Africa, National Student Christian Federation, 475 Riverside Drive, New York, New York 10027. Room 754. RHODESIA NEWS SUMMARY Week of June 30 - July 6, 1966 EDITORIALS AND PERSONAL COMMENTS The Guardian - July 6 "A more promising approach would be for the Government to draw up new constitutional proposals so that white Rhodesians can see that there is a reasonable alternative to the economic ruin of their country. Mr. Wilson has said that majority rule will not come over-night; and this is accepted in the black Commonwealth countries. He should now be more specific. His requirement that any settlement must be acceptable to the people of Rhodesia as a whole Should be, if properly interpreted, a sufficient guarantee against a betrayal of the Africans. "Within this formidable phrase many constitutional expedients can be found to entrench the stability of the country and the efficiency of its services. But if the whites reject a fair offer, the Government had better brace itself for sterner measures than it has contemplated so far. The call for mandatory sanctions, if not the actual use of force, will be even more clamant by September 6 than it has been so far." The Financial Times - July 6 "It is still difficult to see any satisfactory way out of the Rhodesian situation. When the impact of sanctions becomes more obvious, Rhodesian public opinion may become more aware of what is really involved in the unilateral declaration of independence. But there is no reason at present to suppose that this will compel Mr.

  • Zambia's Independence
    Zambia’s Independence In thy cozy loamy soils deeply flowed mine young blood/ In thy sun- scotched patches birth-ed thee a patriotic lad/ How this thought of hilarity mine psyche partly flood/ Thy progeny in hope mine entrails thou maketh glad/ Thy black visage daily mine heart gladly beholdeth/ For thine good, whence mine desire dryly flourisheth/ Oh Zambia, kind Mother to me thou may be more/ Oh land, thy toil, the oil that boileth our common soul! BRIEF INTRODUCTION In this chapter, the author relives the memories of Zambia’s 19th independence celebrations as a child at Mibenge Primary School in Mibenge’s village in Samfya- Mansa district of Luapula Province. It introduces the major theme of independence, the founding fathers of the independent Republic of Zambia, and the promise of a prosperous, democratic and free nation. MAJOR THEME: Independence ≈ History ≈ Politics ≈ §1.1 Mibenge was born on the ninth Christmas after Zambia became independent. My mother told me that she almost named me Mary had I been a girl, but for the second born who was already called by that name in the family. I was born Charles Chushi Zachariah Mwewa to Zachariah I 1 Kalubeya Mwewa and Justina Kunda of Mibenge village in Samfya-Mansa district in the Luapula Province of Zambia.2 I am positioned seventh in an eight-member family of only two girls: John Mwewa, Mary Kalaba, Gilbert Ng’andwe, George (also called Charles Chibwe), Joseph Ng’andwe, Jeremiah Chushi, and Anne Mwewa. When I was born, it was perhaps not a family secret that I was unexpected.

  • Whites Writing Landscape in Savannah Africa
    The Art of Belonging: Whites Writing Landscape in Savannah Africa DAVID McDERMOTT HUGHES Department of Human Ecology, Rutgers University Presented to the Program in Agrarian Studies, Yale University, New Haven, Connecticut, 6 October 2006 “I had a farm in Africa …[where] the views were immensely wide. Everything that you saw made for greatness and freedom, and unequally nobility … you woke up in the morning and though: Here I am, where I ought to be.” Isak Dinesen, Out of Africa (1937:3-4). “I have sometimes thought since of the Elkingtons’ tea table – round, capacious, and white, standing with sturdy legs against the green vines of the garden, a thousand miles of Africa receding from its edge. It was a mark of sanity …” Beryl Markham, West with the Night (1942:60) “Their frontier became a heaven and the continent consumed them … And they can never write the landscapes out of their system.” Breyten Breytenbach, The Memory of Birds in Times of Revolution (1996:108) Imperial colonizers do not seize land with guns and plows alone. In order to keep it, especially after imperial dissolution, settlers must establish a credible sense of entitlement. They must propagate the conviction that they belong on the land they have just settled. At the very least – and this may be difficult enough – settlers must convince themselves of their fit with the landscape of settlement. In other words, all the while 1 excluding natives from power, from wealth, and from territory, overseas pioneers must find a way to include themselves in new lands. Two factors interfere with such public and private persuasion: pre-existing peoples and the land itself.

Three new districts have confirmed COVID-19 infections, bringing the total to 38 out of 116 districts countrywide. On 21 July, Zambia’s Parliament was forced to adjourn as two Members of Parliament (MPs) died after Handwashing demostration at the Zambia National Public Health Institute (ZNPHI) reportedly testing positive for COVID-19 within the preceding week. Poor compliance by the public to recommended prevention measures, such as use of masks, hand hygiene and limited laboratory testing, remain key challenges to the COVID-19 response.

For Northern Rhodesians, Gore-Browne requires no introduction: a proponent of Zambian independence and a close friend of Harry Nkumbula and of Kenneth Kaunda, though Gore-Browne’s refusal to accept that Africans could ever manage a country as industrialised as Northern Rhodesia meant that Kaunda kept him out of the political spoils of independence. For those less intimately acquainted with or interested in the political history of Northern Rhodesia, Gore-Browne was the creator, architect, builder and owner of the remarkable - indeed, the virtually unbelievable in the heart of Rhodesian bush - Shiwa House, “like coming across a mud hut or a herd of buffalo in Piccadilly Circus”, to quote the first impression of one visitor. Civil servants were not Gore-Brown’s favourite characters, and DC’s even less so - this despite the fact that his own first choice of career had been the ICS.

DiJohn, 2010 24 Crisis States Research Centre State Resilience Against the Odds: An Analytical Narrative on the Construction and Maintenance of Political Order in Zambia since 1960 Jonathan Di John Crisis States Research Centre Zambia is now one of the poorest countries in Sub-Saharan Africa. It is a land-abundant but sparsely populated country of 11 million inhabitants. This paper attempts to explain why the Zambian state has remained resilient over the period 1960-2010 despite confronting a substantial set of crises and unfavourable ‘initial conditions’, which include: one of the worst declines in per capita income in sub-Saharan Africa since 1970, a heavy debt burden, dramatic price and production declines in its main export (copper), one of the continent’s most unequal distributions of income, one of the worst HIV/AIDS epidemics in the world, declines in its Human Development Index in every decade since 1980, relatively high levels of poverty, substantial influxes of refugees (particularly in the 1990s) that reached as high as 200,000, high transport costs as a result of being a landlocked economy, and being surrounded by five countries that have experienced civil wars and political disorder. By any conceivable measure, the growth performance of Zambia has been poor (see Table 1).
