History and culture tie human societies together and provide them with reference points for understanding the past, present and future. Education systems that strip people from their culture and history are inherently violent as they attempt to alienate the individual from his or her cultural identity, separate them from their past and thus cultivate ruptures in the social fabric. Racism is a tool is used to justify neocolonialism and capitalist hegemony. As such, neocolonial education systems reproduce violence and social instability through the negation of history and culture. This dissertation examines the neocolonial and racist legacies in education in Africa through the analysis of Nigeria's history education policy and the historical consciousness of Nigerian youth.

    1 GENDER ISSUES IN ALCOHOL CONSUMPTION: A STUDY OF EQUIANO’S 2 TRAVELS, NWAPA’S EFURU AND ACHEBE’S THINGS FALL APART 3 4 5 6 Abstract 7 This paper appraises gender issues in alcohol consumption in Africa, in terms of 8 processing and control using Oladuah Equiano’s autobiography- Equiano’s Travels , 9 Flora Nwapa’s Efuru, and Chinua Achebe’s Things Fall Apart. These three literary 10 texts are thoughtfully chosen for the study, in view of the fact that Equiano 11 pioneered African literature, and advanced by Flora Nwapa and Chinua Achebe in 12 their debut, Efuru and Things Fall Apart , published in 1966 and 1958, respectively. In 13 Equiano’s Travels, published in 1789, Equiano capture and document the Igbo 14 lifestyle in its nativity. Scholars have attempted to look at the works of these literary 15 titans from several perspectives and themes but, to the best of the knowledge of 16 these researchers, they have not enquired into the Igbo lifestyle in alcohol 17 consumption and given it the desired academic attention as amply presented in the 18 literary works of these literary paragons and pathfinders, as the present study 19 intends to do. While Achebe looks at the traditional humane living of Igbo society in 20 the hinterland in its pre-colonial period, Nwapa discusses the lifestyle and folkways 21 of Igbo Lake people of Oguta. Nwapa presents a segment of this Igbo society, which 22 grants women access to alcoholic drink in the public, in sharp contrast to the rest of 23 Igbo society that restricts women from drinking the same liqueur.

  • The Nigeria-Biafra War, Popular Culture and Agitation for Sovereignty of a Biafran Nation
    African Studies Centre Leiden, The Netherlands The Nigeria-Biafra war, popular culture and agitation for sovereignty of a Biafran nation ‘Rantimi Jays Julius-Adeoye ASC Working Paper 138 / 2017 1 African Studies Centre Leiden P.O. Box 9555 2300 RB Leiden The Netherlands Telephone +31-71-5273372 Website www.ascleiden.nl E-mail [email protected] [email protected] © Senior Lecturer, Theatre and Film Studies, Redeemer’s University, Nigeria, LeidenASA Visiting Fellow 2017, March 2017 2 Abstract The date 6 July 2017 marks the 50th anniversary of the war considered as one of the worst in recent human history, the Nigeria-Biafra war. My paper focuses on the representation of this war in popular culture – with an emphasis on film, fictional and non-fictional literature. It interrogates the role that fictional and non-fictional narration play in the collective and individual memory of Nigerians in general and the Igbos in particular. It also looks at the link between the depiction of the war in popular culture and the renewed agitation for the nationhood of Biafra, as since the 2000s, there has been renewed campaigning by young people of Igbo ethnicity for the creation of the Republic of Biafra. This research particularly concentrates on two organizations that are involved in this struggle: the Movement for the Actualization of the Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB) and the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB). It is my position that popular culture constitutes important material for the study and understanding of historical events and periods of time, while it also enhances our understanding of the ways in which these past events may have an influence in the present.
