    “Contested Charisma”. Reflections on the Appearance and Disappearance of Female Visionary Power in a South African Independent Church Andreas Heuser RESÜMEE Andreas Heuser: „Angefochtenes Charisma“. Überlegungen zum Entstehen und Verschwinden der Macht von Seherinnen in einer südafrikanischen unabhängigen Kirche Wie andere afrikanische unabhängige Kirchen in Südafrika wird die Nazareth Baptist Church meist als eine von Männern dominierte Institution wahrgenommen, obwohl im rituellen Be- reich Frauen gelegentlich eine Rolle zugeteilt wird. In der Vergangenheit haben jedoch einzelne Frauen einen erheblichen Einfluss als Prophetinnen oder „Engel“ gehabt, die behaupteten, Vi- sionen vom verstorbenen Gründer der Kirche erhalten zu haben. Diese in Vergessenheit gera- tene Frauen ergriffen nicht nur Partei in den Machtkämpfen der männlichen Hierarchie der Kirche, sondern förderten bestimmte religiöse Ideen, vor allem die Forderung nach ritueller Reinheit. In 1981 the Nazareth Baptist Church (NBC), in South Africa widely known after its founding prophet, Isaiah Shembe (c. 1870 – 1935), as the Shembe Church, celebrated its 70th anniversary. The festivities were overshadowed by a severe succession conflict. Following the death of Johannes Galilee Shembe, who had been Bishop for four decades (1935 – 1976), church cohesion eroded, escalating into a violent confrontation. As a re- sult, the NBC split into two branches, which consider one another heretics to this day.1 On the general history of the NBC, see G.C. Oosthuizen, The Theology of a South African Messiah, Leiden/Köln 967; A. Vilakazi / B. Mthethwa / M. Mpanza, Shembe. The Revitalization of African Society, Johannesburg 986; A.

  • Shembe' Is the Way by SHARON F
    'Shembe' Is the Way BY SHARON F. GRIFFIN DURBAN, South Africa August 1995 Some 30 kilometers north of Durban is a vast, sprawling shan- tytown called Inanda. It is wretch- edly poor and houses perhaps half a million people. Desperate as it is, the valley of Inanda has been home to many outstanding personalities in South Africa's his- tory educator John Langaliba- lele Dube, president of the South Africa Native National Congress, which later became the African National Congress (ANC) in 1923; A.W.G. Champion, mastermind behind the Natal branch of the Industrial and Commercial Work- ers Union of the 1920s; and Mohandas Gandhi, who developed the political tactic of satyagraha (passive resistance) and in 1904 started a self-help settlement scheme in Phoenix on the eastern edge of Inanda. Inanda is also the birthplace of the Nazareth Baptist Church (iBandla lamaNazaretha), founded in 1910 by the prophet Isaiah Shembe, a religious and, some say, political leader who believed that God sent him to the Zulus just as He sent Jesus to the Jews and Mohammed to the Muslims. Shembe established his church against overwhelming odds American and European mission- aries resentful of his Africanized vision of religion; legislators and landowners determined to dispossess Africans of their land and labor. Indeed, Shembe formed the church only four years after the crushing of the Bambatha Rebellion, so named because a chief named Bambatha of the Zondi in the Umvoti district in Natal led an uprising against a colonial poll-tax that served to undermine the Zulu homestead economy. Moreover, following the rebellion, the Natal government deposed the Zulu king, Dinuzuiu, for har- boring rebels.

Aerial deployment of a fibre optic network offers significant cost reductions compared to traditional trenching methods. Design of the Ilitha aerial fibre network will closely resemble the existing electricity distribution network in most residential areas. This will enable pricing to be more affordable compared to traditional data providers. The footprint of the Ilitha fibre roll out will stretch across a 96.2 km2 area which covers communities in KwaMashu, Inanda, Phoenix, and Ntuzuma... The project area is situated approximately 12 kilometres north of Durban and is bordered by Reservoir Hills & Newlands East to the south, KwaDabeka & Molweni to the west, Mount Edgecombe & Blackburn Estate to the east and Mawothi & Trenance Park to the north.

    ‘Wash Me Black Again’: African Nationalism, the Indian Diaspora, and Kwa-Zulu Natal, 1944-1960 by Jon Soske A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of History University of Toronto © Copyright by Jon Soske 2009 ‘Wash Me Black Again’: African Nationalism, the Indian Diaspora, and Kwa-Zulu Natal, 1944-1960 Jon Soske Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of History University of Toronto 2009 ABSTRACT My dissertation combines a critical history of the Indian diaspora’s political and intellectual impact on the development of African nationalism in South Africa with an analysis of African/Indian racial dynamics in Natal. Beginning in the 1940s, tumultuous debates among black intellectuals over the place of the Indian diaspora in Africa played a central role in the emergence of new and antagonistic conceptualizations of a South African nation. The writings of Indian political figures (particularly Gandhi and Nehru) and the Indian independence struggle had enormous influence on a generation of African nationalists, but this impact was mediated in complex ways by the race and class dynamics of Natal. During the 1930s and 40s, rapid and large-scale urbanization generated a series of racially-mixed shantytowns surrounding Durban in which a largely Gujarati and Hindi merchant and landlord class provided the ersatz urban infrastructure utilized by both Tamil-speaking workers and Zulu migrants. In Indian-owned buses, stores, and movie theatres, a racial hierarchy of Indian over African developed based on the social grammars of property, relationship with land, family structure, and different gender roles. In such circumstances, practices integral to maintaining diasporic ii identities—such as religious festivals, marriage, caste (jati), language, and even dress and food—became signifiers of ranked status and perceived exclusion.

    CONTEXTUALIZING THE USE OF BIBLICALLY DERIVED AND METAPHYSICAL IMAGERY IN THE WORK OF BLACK ARTISTS FROM KWAZULU-NATAL: c1930-2002 by Juliette Cécile Leeb-du Toit Submitted in fulfillment of the academic requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in History of Art, in the School of Language Culture and Communication at the University of Natal Pietermaritzburg 2003 Abstract As art historians uncover the many sources and catalysts that have contributed to the emergence of black contemporary art in South Africa, one of the principal influences is that derived from the Christian mission churches and breakaway separatist groups - the African Independent Churches (AICs). Histories of African art have failed adequately to consider the art that emerged from these contexts, regarding it perhaps as too coerced and distinctive – merely religious art subject to the rigours of liturgical or proselytizing function. The purpose of this dissertation is to foreground this art and its position in the development of both pioneer and contemporary South African art and to identify the many features, both stylistic and thematic, which distinguish this work. The incidence of religious based imagery in the work of black artists from KwaZulu-Natal is substantial, reflecting the abovementioned patronage as well as a post-colonial context of education, ethnology and alternate theologies that reinforced such content. However, as this art functions and was initially nurtured within both a liturgical and secular context, different readings and applications have accrued in relation to it, depending on its reception and shifting patronage base. While the focus in this dissertation is on the work of black artists, essentially it also considers the nature of church patronage and intervention, the influence of national and international developments in acculturated religious forms, educational developments and a historical context of theological revision from which it drew.

    Shembe religion’s integration of African Traditional Religion and Christianity: A sociological case study A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts of Rhodes University by Nombulelo Shange Supervisor: Michael Drewett Department of Sociology July 2013 Abstract The Shembe Church‟s integration of African Traditional Religion and Christianity has been met by many challenges. This merger has been rejected by both African traditionalists and Christians. The Shembe Church has been met by intolerance even though the movement in some ways creates multiculturalism between different people and cultures. This thesis documents the Shembe Church‟s ideas and practices; it discusses how the Shembe Church combines two ideologies that appear to be at odds with each other. In looking at Shembe ideas and practices, the thesis discusses African religion-inspired rituals like ukusina, ancestral honouring, animal sacrificing and virgin testing. The thesis also discusses the heavy Christian influence within the Shembe Church; this is done by looking at the Shembe Church‟s use of The Bible and Moses‟ Laws which play a crucial role in the Church. The challenges the Shembe Church faces are another main theme of the thesis. The thesis looks at cases of intolerance and human rights violations experienced by Shembe members. This is done in part by looking at the living conditions at eBuhleni, located at Inanda, KZN. The thesis also analyses individual Shembe member‟s experiences and discusses how some members of the Shembe church experience the acceptance of the Shembe religion in South African society. This thesis concludes by trying to make a distinction between intolerance and controversy.
