Beschreibung

African Resistance explores the diverse ways African societies confronted European colonialism during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Going beyond a simple narrative of conquest, the book highlights the strategic agency employed by African communities, from armed struggle to diplomatic maneuvers, in efforts to preserve their sovereignty and cultural identity. It examines how figures like Samori Ture and Yaa Asantewaa led resistance movements, showcasing that African responses were not monolithic but varied and resourceful. The book starts by setting the stage with an overview of the Scramble for Africa and European Imperialism, and then delves into specific instances of resistance, analyzing both military clashes and diplomatic engagements. Did you know that some African kingdoms strategically formed alliances to counter European influence? Or that the Maji Maji Rebellion, though ultimately suppressed, stands as a powerful symbol of resistance against German colonial rule? By using archival documents and oral histories, African Resistance challenges Eurocentric narratives and reclaims the voices of African peoples during this pivotal era. Ultimately, the book demonstrates that these resistance movements significantly shaped post-colonial African identities and political landscapes. African Resistance encourages readers to critically evaluate historical narratives and gain a deeper understanding of the resilience and resourcefulness of African communities.

    Arranging ofrendas. Brewing pericón into a healing tea. Releasing traumas through baños and limpias. Herbalist and curandera Atava Garcia Swiecicki spent decades gathering this traditional knowledge of curanderismo, Mexican folk healing, which had been marginalized as Chicanx and Latinx Americans assimilated to US culture. She teaches how to follow the path of the curandera, as she herself learned from apprenticing with Mexican curanderas, studying herbal texts, and listening to her ancestors. In this book listeners will learn the Indigenous, African, and European roots of curanderismo. Atava also shares her personal journey as a healer and those of thirteen other inspirational curanderas serving their communities. She offers listeners the tools to begin their own healing—for themselves, for their relationship with the earth, and for the people. 
     
     
     
    The Curanderx Toolkit includes more than twenty-five profiles of native and adopted plants of Baja and Alta California and teaches you to grow, know, and love them. This book will help anyone who has lost connection with their ancestors begin to incorporate the herbal wisdom and holistic wellness of curanderismo into their lives. Take the power of ancient medicine into your own hands by learning simple herbal remedies and practicing rituals for kinship with the more-than-human world.

    ‘I would get out of the car at every shopping centre and want to ask the stranger walking by with their trolley: “Why are you still shopping? Someone I love has died.”’ – Dela Gwala 
    Death is a fact of life, but the experience of grief is unique to each of us. This timely collection brings together a range of voices to offer reflections on death and dying, from individual losses to large scale catastrophes. 
    	Karin Schimke revisits her troubled relationship with her late father, a Second World War survivor ‘whose brain had been broken by violence’. Madeleine Fullard, the head of South Africa’s Missing Persons Task Team, draws us into the search for activists who were ‘disappeared’ or went missing in political circumstances between 1960 and 1994. Caine Prize winner Lidudumalingani remembers his childhood in a small village in the Eastern Cape, and how his mother always listened to death notices read over the radio as a way of bearing witness to the grief of strangers. 
    	The other contributors in this poignant and thought-provoking anthology turn their minds to subjects as varied as the ritual of washing the body of the deceased before burial, the ethics of killing small animals, and the extinction of humankind. 
    	In a time of relentless grief, Our Ghosts Were Once People reminds us that one of the small consolations of literature is that all sorrows can be borne.
