  • Ali a Mazrui on the Invention of Africa and Postcolonial Predicaments1
    ‘My life is One Long Debate’: Ali A Mazrui on the Invention of Africa and Postcolonial Predicaments1 Sabelo J. Ndlovu-Gatsheni2 Archie Mafeje Research Institute University of South Africa Introduction It is a great honour to have been invited by the Vice-Chancellor and Rector Professor Jonathan Jansen and the Centre for African Studies at the University of the Free State (UFS) to deliver this lecture in memory of Professor Ali A. Mazrui. I have chosen to speak on Ali A. Mazrui on the Invention of Africa and Postcolonial Predicaments because it is a theme closely connected to Mazrui’s academic and intellectual work and constitute an important part of my own research on power, knowledge and identity in Africa. Remembering Ali A Mazrui It is said that when the journalist and reporter for the Christian Science Monitor Arthur Unger challenged and questioned Mazrui on some of the issues raised in his televised series entitled The Africans: A Triple Heritage (1986), he smiled and responded this way: ‘Good, [...]. Many people disagree with me. My life is one long debate’ (Family Obituary of Ali Mazrui 2014). The logical question is how do we remember Professor Ali A Mazrui who died on Sunday 12 October 2014 and who understood his life to be ‘one long debate’? More importantly how do we reflect fairly on Mazrui’s academic and intellectual life without falling into the traps of what the South Sudanese scholar Dustan M. Wai (1984) coined as Mazruiphilia (hagiographical pro-Mazruism) and Mazruiphobia (aggressive anti-Mazruism)? How do we pay tribute

  • 1 REITH LECTURES 1979: the African Condition Ali Mazrui
    REITH LECTURES 1979: The African Condition Ali Mazrui Lecture 1: The Garden of Eden in Decay TRANSMISSION: 7 November 1979 – Radio 4 In the first Reith Lectures to be focused primarily on Africa, in 1961, Dame Margery Perham, the Oxford historian, decided to use a metaphor from accounting. She attempted a ‘colonial reckoning’, a kind of balance sheet of the costs and benefits of the colonial experience for both the colonised and the imperial powers. My own metaphor for these lectures is from the medical field. It is as if I were a doctor and Africa had come to me for a comprehensive medical examination on the eve of a particular anniversary. The most important century in Africa’s relations with Europe has been from the 1880s to the 1980s. It was from the 1880s that the map of Africa began to acquire more decisively the different flag colours of the occupation powers of Europe. Let us assume Africa has come to my clinic for varied medical tests on the eve of the 100th anniversary of Europe’s rape of her body and her possessions. I have therefore called this series of lectures The African Condition for two major reasons. One is diagnostic. To some extent this series is about Africa’s aches and pains: what is Africa’s state of health after 100 years of intense interaction with Europe? I also chose the title because it echoed the philosophical phrase ‘the human condition’. I want to examine the state of Africa partly as a way of measuring the state of the world.

  • Intellectual Contributions of John Glover Jackson, an African
    ABSTRACT AFRICAN AND AFRICAN AMERICAN STUDIES USHER, C. ANTHONY B.S., VIRGINIA STATE UNIVERSITY, 1991 EXPLORING THE CONTRIBUTIONS OF JOHN G. JACKSON TO AFRICAN HISTORIOGRAPHY Advisor: Dr. Keith E. Baird Thesis dated May, 1994 This thesis offers a comprehensive examination of the intellectual contributions of John Glover Jackson, an African American historian. Jackson, similiar to many other African American scholars, is self trained in the field of African history. This self training is a crucial element in this presentation for it is an attempt to present the autodidact's efforts and contributions as valid. This attempt reviews the archeological, anthropological, and cultural evidence presented by Jackson relating to his interpretations of man, God, and civilization. The methodology utilized in this research consists mainly of examining secondary data. Primary materials include interviews, video recordings, and recorded lectures. Critiques of the scholarly content of these materials are included in the assessment of Jackson's work. Iconographic, linguistic and ethnological evidence will be presented as interpreted by Jackson. The findings demonstrate that Jackson's contributions were virtually ignored. The reasons for this disregard are several. The dissenting nature of his presentation, his atheist reasoning and his lack of diplomacy contributed to his neglect. The results of this study carry wide reaching implications in the different fields of historical research. An Important finding, for example, is that formal university training is not an absolute prerequisite in the writing of history. Of greater significance is the evidence presented and the integrity of the historian's scholarship. The autodidact and the formally trained scholar have much to offer historiography.

Unlike many other scholars, we suggest it must be understood in its historical context. Migration between Europe and Africa has been a European concern at least since the 1920s. At that time, issues of migration were seen in the context of a co-European colonial effort in Africa. Today, migration issues are to be resolved in the framework of a EU-African partnership model built on equality, interdependence and mutual ‘win- win’ dynamics. However, a closer look at the history of EU-African migration reveals striking parallels between past and present. Throughout the period from the 1920s and onward, the migration policies devised within various frameworks of European integration have been shaped by demographic projections. Presumed demographic ‘imbalances’ (i.e. population surplus or deficit) have been used to justify vastly different migrant regimes.

No one can ask of the sons to repent for the mistakes of their fathers… The colonizer came, he took, he helped himself, he exploited. He pillaged resources and wealth that did not belong to him. He stripped the colonized of his personality, of his liberty, of his land, of the fruit of his labor. The colonizer took, but I want to say with respect, that he also gave. … There were among them evil men but there were also men of goodwill. People who believed they were fulfilling a civilizing mission, people who believed they were doing good. They were wrong, but some were sincere. … I have come to propose to you youth of Africa, not to dwell on the past, but for us to draw together lessons from it in order to face the future together.
