  • The Gambia’S Notorious Prison System, Has Proven Deadlier Than the Previous Laws
    The more recent Publication of False Information Act, which mandates heavy fines or imprisonment in The Gambia’s notorious prison system, has proven deadlier than the previous laws. THE GAMBIA 152 MEDIA SUSTAINABILITY INDEX 2010 INTRODUCTION OVERALL SCORE: 1.66 THE GAMBIA THE Repressive media laws continue to hamper the independent press in The Gambia—in sharp contrast to the country’s constitution, which grants all citizens the freedom of expression and supports press freedom. The Alliance for Patriotic Reorientation and Construction (APRC), the ruling party since a bloodless coup in R1994, eroded and flouted the existing principles of democracy and human rights. APRC wasted little time introducing legislation, such as Newspaper Decree 70 and 71, aimed at gagging the media. The more recent Publication of False Information Act, which mandates heavy fines or imprisonment in The Gambia’s notorious prison system, has proven deadlier than the previous laws. Those who petition the president, seeking redress when their rights are violated, must prove their allegations in court—and if they fail to prove their cases, they face jail time. A human rights advocate was jailed recently under this law. Libel is punishable with civil penalties as well as criminal penalties, and the accused bear the burden of proof. The libel law and the laws on sedition and false publication all carry the same minimum custodial penalty of one year in prison and/or heavy fines. In 2009, several journalists were fined or imprisoned under these three laws. Although no one faced charges of libel, sedition, or false publication in 2010, the psychological impact of threatening remarks from the president’s office has driven editors to self-censorship, and dampens free speech among citizens.

Internally it almost completely surrounds the Gambia. Dakar, the capital city of Senegal, is located at the westernmost tip of the country on the Cap-Vert peninsula. During the 17th and 18th centuries, numerous trading posts, belonging to various colonial empires, were established along the coast.

  • Dakar Wolof and the Configuration of an Urban Identity
    Journal of African Cultural Studies, Volume 14, Number 2, December 2001, pp. 153-172 Dakar Wolof and the con guration of an urban identity FIONA MCLAUGHLIN (Department of Linguistics, University of Kansas) ABSTRACT The turbulent period of political and social unrest at the end of the 1980s and beginning of the 1990s in Senegal gave rise to the l movement in which the city of Dakar was recreated in the historical imagination of its youth. This essay argues that the movement coincided with the emergence of a self-conscious urban identity among the Dakar population, evidenced by a variety of artistic expression that focuses on and exalts the culture of the city. Central to the notion of an urban identity is the role of Dakar Wolof, a variety of the language that has signi cantly diverged from the more conservative dialects spoken in the rural areas, primarily by incorporating massive lexical borrowing from French. Dakar Wolof is portrayed in sustained written form for the rst time in two comics that appeared during this period: Boy Dakar by Ibou Fall and Aziz Bâ, and Ass et Oussou by Omar Diakité. This essay discusses the hybrid nature of Dakar Wolof and its depiction in written form in the two comics. Finally, it is argued that Dakar Wolof has had a profound effect on the notion of ethnicity in the Senegalese context and has contributed to the emergence of a de-ethnicized urban identity. 1. Introduction In February of 1988, presidential elections in Senegal failed to produce a change of regime from that of incumbent president Abdou Diouf to that of opposition leader Abdoulaye Wade, whose widely proclaimed campaign slogan had been or Change!1 A little more than a year later, in April of 1989, during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, unprecedented ethnic violence against the Moorish population in Senegal broke out in the streets of Dakar, the country’s capital, escalating into an international crisis that stopped just short of war.

ABSTRACT “Music is in the veins and blood of the Senegalese people” (Bakayoko 2007). This paper aims to take a look into the reason for why this is. By examining the historical and present context of music in Senegal, one can better understand the social aspects of its music. In addition, analyses concerning the rhythmic and pedagogical importance will help provide a better picture for how we, as Westerners, can try to comprehend this rather undocumented subject. II. INTRODUCTION It is difficult for a Westerner to understand African music. Moreover, it is difficult to understand the importance and social significance that music plays in African life. When a Westerner listens to African music for the first time, he will typically elicit one of two responses. He will become confused due to the assumed rhythmic complexity and consequently become bored or he will become intrigued for the very same reason, but still not quite understand why.

  • Casamance, 1885-2014
    MAPPING A NATION: SPACE, PLACE AND CULTURE IN THE CASAMANCE, 1885-2014 A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Mark William Deets August 2017 © 2017 Mark William Deets MAPPING A NATION: SPACE, PLACE AND CULTURE IN THE CASAMANCE, 1885-2014 Mark William Deets Cornell University This dissertation examines the interplay between impersonal, supposedly objective “space” and personal, familiar “place” in Senegal’s southern Casamance region since the start of the colonial era to determine the ways separatists tried to ascribe Casamançais identity to five social spaces as spatial icons of the nation. I devote a chapter to each of these five spaces, crucial to the separatist identity leading to the 1982 start of the Casamance conflict. Separatists tried to “discursively map” the nation in opposition to Senegal through these spatial icons, but ordinary Casamançais refused to imagine the Casamance in the same way as the separatists. While some corroborated the separatist imagining through these spaces, others contested or ignored it, revealing a second layer of counter-mapping apart from that of the separatists. BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH Mark W. Deets is a retired Marine aviator and a PhD candidate in African History at Cornell University. Deets began his doctoral studies after retiring from the Marine Corps in 2010. Before his military retirement, Deets taught History at the U.S. Naval Academy.
