Consuming Whiteness: Australian Racism and the ›White Sugar‹ Campaign by Stefanie Affeldt

The ›white Australia policy‹ has so far largely been discussed with regard only to the political-ideological perspective. No account was taken of the central problem of racist societalization, that is the everyday production and reproduction of ›race‹ as a social relation (›doing race‹) which was supported by broad sections of the population.

In her comprehensive study of Australian racism and the ›white sugar‹ campaign, Stefanie Affeldt shows that the latter was only able to achieve success because it was embedded in a widespread ›white Australia culture‹ that found expression in all spheres of life. Literature, music, theatre, museums and the sciences contributed to the dissemination of racist stereotypes and the stabilization of ›white‹ identity.

In this context, the consumption of sugar became, quite literally, the consumption of ›whiteness‹: the colour of its crystals melted with the skin colour ascribed to its producers to the trope of doubly ›white‹ sugar. Its consumption was at the same time personal affirmation of the consumers’ membership in the ›white race‹ and pledge to the ›white‹ nation; its purchase was supposedly a contribution to the ›racial‹ homogenization and defence of the country, and was meant to overall serve the preservation of ›white‹ supremacy.

"From 1959-60, in the context of the Cold War, during the establishment of the neocolonial bourgeoisie and in the face of France's obstinacy in refusing the UPC its rightful place in Kamerun, asking if the UPC was communist could only have one revolutionary answer: Yes it was, since its leaders were already talking explicitly about socialism as the end goal of the UPC's struggle. Read:

“The UPC follows the example of China and Indochina, and seeks to build a socialist society modeled on that of People's China.”

This is what the highest official of the UPC [Moumié] said, addressing a young executive and designating without ambiguity the socialist horizon as the objective to be achieved in Kamerun.

Slavery in the Connecticut Valley of Massachusetts by Robert H. Romer

In this first history of slavery in western Massachusetts in colonial times, Robert H. Romer demonstrates that slavery was pervasive in the Pioneer Valley in the 1700s, where many of the ministers and other “important people” owned black slaves. To show the role of slavery in the valley, Professor Romer presents a “snapshot” of slavery, choosing a moment (1752) and a place (the main street of Deerfield) to present detailed information about the slaves who lived in that place at that time — and their owners.

Working largely from original sources — wills, probate inventories, church records, and merchants’ account books — he shows that slavery was much more significant than had previously been thought. Some twenty-five slaves belonging to fifteen different owners lived on that mile-long street in 1752. He emphasizes that these were individuals, some born in Africa, some born as slaves in New England, forced to live their lives as property, always subject to being sold away at the whim of an owner.

Deerfield is used simply as an example — slavery was pervasive throughout the valley. In other chapters he treats — in less detail — other towns in the valley. He also gives a brief history of slavery in Massachusetts, from its beginnings in the 1630s until its gradual end in the final decades of the 1700s and then discusses how in the following centuries New Englanders for the most part managed to forget that slavery had ever existed here.

His work brings out of obscurity the many black slaves who lived in the valley, the invisible men and women of our colonial past.

"Another aspect of the 1956-8 maquis which similarly bears out this 'reluctant' feature of the adoption of armed struggle was the amount of attention Um Nyobe devoted to communicating with the French and Camerounian authorities during this period in the attempt to reach a solution to what he considered above all a political problem. Thus in May 1957 the Secretary-General of the U.P.C. sent an open letter to the High Commissioner and Premier Mbida. In this document he put forward suggestions for bringing about a detente in the territory, repeating U.P.C. demands for an amnesty, abrogation of the ban on the U.P.C., and French recognition of Cameroun's right to accede to independence." - Richard Joseph, "Radical Nationalism in Cameroun"

Dzáníbaa’ is alone when U.S. troops swoop down on her family’s hogan. Before she can run to safety, a soldier grabs her and puts her on his horse. She is taken to Fort Sumner, and from there is forced to walk to Bosque Redondo. For four long years, Dzáníbaa’ and her family endure incredible hardship and sacrifice. Crops wither. Food is scarce or so tainted that it poisons. Illness strikes. At times there seems no hope of a better future.

Nevertheless, this time of trial gives Dzáníbaa’ a profound sense of herself as a Navajo and of the importance of her culture. As never before, Dzáníbaa’ realizes the significance of the clan system, of the prayers and songs of her people, and of exerting herself to help her family.

Hear Dzáníbaa’’s story, and discover why she is the Little Woman Warrior Who Came Home.

Haiti. Acuerdate de 1804 no esta escrito para los especialistas; quiere llegar a la mayor cantidad de lectores posible. El libro se propone explicar la fuente y la envergadura del divorcio entre la elite intelectual del pais y el conjunto de los ciudadanos. La Revolucion de 1804 es unica en la historia de la humanidad, y la sociedad que de alli resulto, quierase o no, lo es tambien. Este ensayo propone tres elementos nuevos de reflexion: 1. Cada haitiano es portador de la dualidad cultural (ruptura entre la cultura de origen africano y la cultura de origen frances) que caracteriza a la sociedad haitiana; 2. el negro es un concepto propio y exclusivo del colonialismo; 3. el Estado haitiano en el siglo XIX esta mal comprendido y admite favorablemente cualquier comparacion con las estructuras politicas vecinas.

The Pacific region has over 1200 indigenous languages. Different Pacific Island countries have different 'language profiles'. Some countries, such as Cook Islands, Fiji, Marshall Islands, Niue, and Tokelau, have only one indigenous language, which has relatively high status. Other countries, such as Papua New Guinea, Vanuatu and Solomon Islands have a large number of languages, all with low status.

The metropolitan languages English and French have been the primary languages of education throughout the region. Indigenous languages also have a place in some education systems. Many Pacific Islanders, including those writing in this collection, believe that place should be larger.

This collection of articles and interviews explores policy, practice and attitudes relating to the use of Pacific languages in education systems of most Pacific Island countries and territories, from pre-school to tertiary level. It records history; it deals with current attitudes and prejudices; and it focuses attention on perceived problems with the medium of education in many parts of the region.

"Dezan apre tranblemanntè a, Sacha ki se sèl moun nan fanmi an ki ta sanble te rete vivan apre trajedi a, te dekouvri modpas sè li. Li te sezi wè Sofya te konn sèvi ak foto li pou li te atire Djonnsonn. Sacha te mete tout odas li deyò pou li te fè tèt li pase pou Sofya. Jennonm nan ki pa te vle rate okazyon an ankò, te blije ale Ayiti. Se vre, li te genyen anpil dout sou moun li te wè a; men sèvèl li pa te fin twò klè pou li te konprann jwèt la. Li te sèvi avèk Sacha tankou se te Sofya. Lè Djonnsonn te vin konnen Sacha se ti sè Sofya, li te kriye tankou yon ti bebe ; men, sa pa te chanje lanmou ak santiman ki te nan fon kè li.

De mwa apre jenn gason an te retounen nan peyi Etazini, li te pran nouvèl Sacha ansent. Yon nouvèl ki te pote anpil espwa ak kontantman nan kè ti malere a.

Èske li pa te gen tan twò ta pou Djonnsonn chanje lavi li? Èske lanati pa te fèk kòmanse avèk misyon li? Èske Sacha te rete vivan pou yon rezon nou poko konnen? Èske Goudougoudou te fèk kare rete sou chimen yo? Èske rankont mesyedam sila yo ka pote yon chanjman nan peyi Ayiti? Antouka, an nou pran ti chèz ba nou, epi nou va swiv."

Combater duas vezes: Mulheres na luta armada em Angola by Margarida Paredes

A história contemporânea de Angola é inseparável das guerras e conflitos que duraram entre 1961 e 2002, incluindo as Lutas de Libertação nacional e a Guerra Civil após a independência. Um dos aspetos mais marcantes destas guerras foi a participação das mulheres como combatentes.
Num contexto social de dominação masculina, esta participação nem sempre significou, para estas mulheres, maior visibilidade, e a verdade é que, depois das guerras, muitas foram esquecidas. No entanto, não há como negar que a participação das mulheres na Luta Armada reforçou a luta pela emancipação feminina e igualdade de género, já que elas assumiram papéis que lhes estavam interditos anteriormente.

Num trabalho que resulta da sua tese de doutoramento em Antropologia, Margarida Paredes cria um arquivo de memórias no feminino sobre crimes coloniais, resistência anticolonial, Luta de Libertação e Guerra Civil, bem como sobre conflitos internos, como o 27 de Maio de 1977, onde realça o comando do Destacamento Feminino das FAPLA na sublevação militar e a repressão que vitimou as comandantes após a revolta.

«Resgatar um palimpsesto de memórias de guerra é recuperar uma multiplicidade de passados e percursos de vida que, se por um lado foram de violência, sofrimento, humilhação, traumas, perdas, rancor e tragédia, também foram de resistência, luta, criatividade, inovação, superação, paixão, amor, solidariedade e esperança.»

Paths to Prison: On the Architectures of Carcerality by Isabelle Kirkham-Lewitt; Dylan Rodríguez; Adrienne Brown; James Graham; Brett Story; Jarrett M. Drake; Stephen Dillon; Sable Elyse Smith; Anne Spice; Wendy L. Wright; Mabel O. Wilson; Leslie Lodwick; Jasmine Syedullah

As Angela Y. Davis has proposed, the “path to prison,” which so disproportionately affects communities of color, is most acutely guided by the conditions of daily life. Architecture, then, as fundamental to shaping these conditions of civil existence, must be interrogated for its involvement along this diffuse and mobile path. Paths to Prison: On the Architectures of Carcerality aims to expand the ways the built environment’s relationship to and participation in the carceral state is understood in architecture. The collected essays in this book implicate architecture in the more longstanding and pervasive legacies of racialized coercion in the United States—and follow the premise that to understand how the prison enacts its violence in the present one must shift the epistemological frame elsewhere: to places, discourses, and narratives assumed to be outside of the sphere of incarceration.

Paths to Prison: On the Architectures of Carcerality offers not a fixed or inexorable account of how things are but rather a set of starting points and methodologies for reevaluating the architecture of carceral society and for undoing it altogether.
