The players were confident during the pregame routine and warm up but looked ra- ther jittery as they ran onto the pitch. A Team B Team C Team They were determined to not have a repeat of last years dismal performance. We started the game on the back foot but a quick fire goal by G Chirawu calmed the 1) U14’s A Chipamaunga M Chaniwa nerves. T Chikutiro *(Zim) The St John’s team were on the forefront again and a strike from outside the box A Ditima *(Zim) F Dhlamini K Chibanda caught the players napping and the score was now 1-1. The game was more like pinball for some stages but some one touch, two touch mover from the St George’s S Jackson T Mudanga A Chihope players led to a composed finish by K Gwasira. Momentum swung St George’s way leading to an own goal by the opposing team. S Kadira *(Zim) K Shumba T Mushonga *(Zim) C Umali The second half began sluggishly by St George’s leading to some missed chances from both sides. A corner later on in the game led to another goal from St John’s, F Pullen *(Zim) bringing the score to 3-2.

Fake Heroines and the Falsification of History in Zimbabwe 1980 - 2009
African Journal of History and Culture (AJHC) Vol. 1 (5), pp. 076-083, December, 2009 Available online at http://www.academicjournals.org/ajhc © 2009 Academic Journals Full Length Research Paper Fake heroines and the falsification of history in Zimbabwe 1980 - 2009 Dorothy Goredema1 and Percyslage Chigora2* 1Department of History and Development Studies, Midlands State University, Gweru, Zimbabwe. 2Department of History and Development Studies, Midlands State University, Private Bag 9055,Gweru, Republic of Zimbabwe. Accepted 10 December, 2009 The ideology of femocracy is so entrenched in Zimbabwean politics that it has become a tradition. It started as a tendency during the liberation struggle of making room and integrating a few women into politics. After independence, it developed into a habit of promoting the same women who had been exposed during the liberation struggle into political offices. Finally, at independence it became a tradition whereby the state confers heroine status to the very women who had held position during the war. However, one feature that stands glaring at the national heroes’ acre is that the heroines who were lay, are all related to men in political positions in both current ruling party and the state. This paper will demonstrate that most Zimbabwean heroines are forgotten. It also proves that even at death the patriarchal nature of Zimbabwean politics manifests itself when one considers that the number of male heroes vis-à-vis the heroines who lay at the acre. Finally the paper will show how femocracy as an ideology has led to the falsification and misrepresentation of historical facts all in an attempt to promote nationalist history. -

Race, Identity, and Belonging in Early Zimbabwean Nationalism(S), 1957-1965
Race, Identity, and Belonging in Early Zimbabwean Nationalism(s), 1957-1965 Joshua Pritchard This thesis interrogates traditional understandings of race within Zimbabwean nationalism. It explores the interactions between socio-cultural identities and belonging in black African nationalist thinking and politics, and focuses on the formative decade between the emergence of mass African nationalist political parties in 1957 and the widespread adoption of an anti- white violent struggle in 1966. It reassesses the place of non-black individuals within African anti-settler movements. Using the chronological narrative provided by the experiences of marginal non-black supporters (including white, Asian, coloured, and Indian individuals), it argues that anti-colonial nationalist organisations during the pre-Liberation War period were heavily influenced by the competing racial theories and politics espoused by their elite leadership. It further argues that the imagined future Zimbabwean nations had a fluid and reflexive positioning of citizens based on racial identities that changed continuously. Finally, this thesis examines the construction of racial identities through the discourse used by black Zimbabweans and non-black migrants and citizens, and the relationships between these groups, to contend that race was an inexorable factor in determining belonging. Drawing upon archival sources created by non-black 'radical' participants and Zimbabwean nationalists, and oral interviews conducted during fieldwork in South Africa and Zimbabwe in 2015, the research is a revisionist approach to existing academic literature on Zimbabwean nationalism: in the words of Terence Ranger, it is not a nationalist history but a history of nationalism. It situates itself within multiple bodies of study, including conceptual nationalist and racial theory, the histories of marginal groups within African nationalist movements, and studies of citizenship and belonging. -

NATIONAL HEROES (4th Series) Issued 5th August, 2008 (Extracted from Philatelic Bureau Bulletin No 3 of 2008)2 Z - Johanna Nkomo Born: 18th September 1927 in the Matobo District; Died: 3rd June 2003; Buried at Heroes Acre on 7th June 2003 Johanna Nkomo was a princess of the Nguni Clan Royalty in Lupane District, although she was born in Matopos (Fort Usher). She adopted the name MaFuyana as an indication of her origin. She was a devout Catholic all her life. She married the "Father of the Nation", Joshua Nkomo on 1st October 1949, whilst working as matron of a children's orphanage run by the Dominican Convent in Bulawayo. Johanna was an example of a steadfast mother maintaining traditional family principles. She supported her husband in every aspect of his life, despite being often separated physically from Joshua throughout his political life. She was devoted to the children of Zimbabwe and beneath her quiet dignity was a figure who troubled the colonial authorities of Southern Rhodesia, and this made her a prime target of successive colonial regimes. All her life she worked for the unity of all Zimbabweans, and as well for the welfare of the under privileged children through the Child Survival Foundation. Her steadfast commitment to the cause of the Zimbabwean people made her departure a sad loss. (Her husband, Joshua Nkomo, was commemorated in a separate issue of stamps in June 2000) A - Ruth Lottie Nomonde Chinamano Born: 16th February 1925, Griqualand Cape Province RSA; Died: 2nd January 2005; Buried at Heroes Acre on 6th January 2005. -
