Synopsis

Swahili Coast Exchange explores the vibrant history of the Swahili Coast, highlighting its pivotal role in maritime trade and cultural exchange within the Indian Ocean world. It unveils how the Swahili city-states, located in East Africa, actively shaped their destiny by strategically leveraging their unique cultural assets. The book details the fascinating blend of African, Islamic, and Asian influences that fostered a thriving society, challenging Eurocentric views that often overlook African contributions to global exchange.

 
The book examines how Swahili architecture, characterized by unique designs reflecting wealth and cultural identity, and the evolution of the Swahili language, a Bantu language enriched by Arabic, were central to the region's success. It also traces the intricate maritime trade networks that connected the Swahili Coast to distant shores, facilitating the exchange of goods and ideas.

 
The book progresses systematically, beginning with the historical and cultural context, followed by in-depth explorations of architecture, language, and trade, supported by diverse evidence ranging from archaeological findings to linguistic studies.

A Chance to Harmonize - How...

Sheryl Kaskowitz

In 1934, the Great Depression had destroyed the US economy, leaving residents poverty-stricken. First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt urged President Roosevelt to take radical action to help those hit hardest. They set up government homesteads in rural areas across the country, an experiment in cooperative living where people could start over. To boost morale and encourage the homesteaders to find community in their own traditions, the administration brought in artists to lead group activities—including folk music.Working almost entirely (and purposely) under the radar, the music unit would collect more than 800 songs and operate for nearly two years, until they were shut down under fire from a conservative coalition in Congress that deemed the entire homestead enterprise dangerously "socialistic."Despite its early demise, the music unit proved that music can provide hope and a sense of belonging even in the darkest times. It also laid the groundwork for the folk revival that followed.A Chance To Harmonize reveals this untold story and will delight listeners with the revelation of a new and previously undiscovered chapter in American cultural history.
