Book Synopsis Activism through Music during the Apartheid Era and Beyond by : Ambigay Yudkoff
Download or read book Activism through Music during the Apartheid Era and Beyond written by Ambigay Yudkoff and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2021-06-24 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Activism through Music during the Apartheid Era and Beyond documents the grassroots activism of Sharon Katz & the Peace Train against the backdrop of enormous diversity and the volatile social and political climate in South Africa during the early 1990s. Among the intersections of race, healing and the "soft power" of music, Katz offers a vision of the possibilities of national identity and belonging as South Africans grappled with the transition from apartheid to democracy. Through extensive fieldwork across two countries (South Africa and the United States) and drawing on personal experiences as a South African of color, Ambigay Yudkoff reveals a compelling narrative of multigenerational collaboration. This experience creates a sense of community fostering relationships that develop through music, travel, performances, and socialization. In South Africa and the United States, and recently in Cuba and Mexico, the Peace Train's journey in musical activism provides a vehicle for racial integration and intercultural understanding.

Download or read book Undoing Apartheid written by Premesh Lalu and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2022-10-27 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Post-apartheid South Africa still struggles to overcome the past, not just because the material conditions of apartheid linger but because the intellectual conditions it created have not been thoroughly dismantled. The system of 'petty apartheid', which controlled the minutia of everyday life, became a means of dragooning human beings into adapting to increasingly mechanized forms of life that stifle desire and creative endeavour. As a result, apartheid is incessantly repeated in the struggle to move beyond it. In Undoing Apartheid, Premesh Lalu argues that only an aesthetic education can lead to a future beyond apartheid. To find ways to escape the vicious cycle, he traces the patterns created by three theatrical works by William Kentridge, Jane Taylor, and the Handspring Puppet Company – Faustus in Africa, Woyzeck on the Highveld, and Ubu and the Truth Commission – which coincided with the fall of the Berlin Wall and the end of apartheid. Through the analysis of these works, Lalu uncovers the roots of modern thinking about race and affirms the need to revitalize a post-apartheid reconciliation endowed with truth – if only to keep alive the rhyme of hope and history.
Book Synopsis Beyond the Apartheid Workplace by : Eddie Webster
Download or read book Beyond the Apartheid Workplace written by Eddie Webster and published by University of Kwazulu Natal Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 524 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Has the apartheid workplace changed over the past ten years of democracy in South Africa? In order to answer this question, the contributors of this book studied seventeen different workplaces, including BMW, a state hospital, footwear sweatshops and the wine farming industry. The editors broaden the definition of work to cover studies of the informal economy, including street traders, homeworkers and small rural enterprises. Beyond the Apartheid Workplace shows how South Africa's triple transition-towards political democracy, economic liberalization and post-colonial transformation-has generated contradictory pressures at workplace levels. A wide range of managerial strategies and union responses are identified, demonstrating both continuities and discontinuities with past practices. These studies reveal a growing differentiation within the world of work between stable, formal-sector work, casualized and outsourced work, and informal work where people struggle to make a living on the margins of the formal economy. The majority of workplaces are marked by the persistence and reconfiguration of the apartheid legacy. Deepening poverty and exclusion have been generated among great numbers of workers and their dependents.
Book Synopsis Homelands, Harlem and Hollywood by : Rob Nixon
Download or read book Homelands, Harlem and Hollywood written by Rob Nixon and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-10-05 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1994, Homelands, Harlem & Hollywood examines the anti-colonialist struggle against apartheid, and the ways in which American and South African culture have been fascinated with and influenced by one another. Rob Nixon’s wide-ranging analysis looks at Hollywood representations of the struggle for liberation, the impact of the Harlem Renaissance on the Sophiatown writers, the banning and censorship of television under apartheid, Mandela and messianic politics, the sports and cultural boycotts, ethnic nationalism, and the culture of violence. Nixon concludes with an investigation of how the collapse of communism and anti-communism and the rise of ethnic cleansing in Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union had powerful implications for the shape of post-apartheid South Africa.

Book excerpt: APARTHEID - A History of Apartheid: South Africa and Beyond"No one is born hating another person because of the colour of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite...for to be free is not merely to cast off one's chains, but to live in a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others."--Nelson Mandela, Long Walk to Freedom Apartheid was the system of oppression and racial division that dominated South Africa for nearly half a century, starting in the early 1950's. The country, during that time, was controlled by the white minority that mainly consisted of people with British and Dutch ancestry. As racial tensions deepened over time, the fascistic National Party took hold of South African politics and began to take away voting power from Africans who were native to the area. By the time Apartheid was summoned into law, the country had become a dangerous hotbed of Civil War and racial violence. We know the story of Nelson Mandela because of the tremendous courage he, and others belonging to African political groups, showed during this time. Though there was never an actual war, Apartheid may be better understood as a series of guerilla-style conflicts that took place due to social slavery and disenfranchisement. That's not to say that the only casualties of this law were psychological. Many people died. Women and children were massacred by the score. Society was crumbling down from all levels. Mandela was sent to jail and tortured as a political prisoner. This is the true story of apartheid in South Africa and beyond.

Book Synopsis Voices of Justice and Reason by : Geoffrey V. Davis
Download or read book Voices of Justice and Reason written by Geoffrey V. Davis and published by Rodopi. This book was released on 2003 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past fifty years transformations of great moment have taken place in South Africa. Apartheid and the subsequent transition to a democratic, non-racial society in particular have exercised a profound effect on the practice of literature. This study traces the development of literature under apartheid, then seeks to identify the ways in which writers and theatre practitioners are now facing the challenges of a new social order. The main focus is on the work of black writers, prime among them Matsemela Manaka, Mtutuzeli Matshoba and Richard Rive, who, as politically committed members of the oppressed majority, bore witness to the "black experience" through their writing. Despite the draconian censorship system they were able to address the social problems caused by racial discrimination in all areas of life, particularly through forced removals, the migrant labour system, and the creation of the homelands. Their writing may be read both as a comprehensive record of everyday life under apartheid and as an alternative cultural history of South Africa. Particular attention is paid to theatre as a barometer of social change in South Africa. The concluding chapters consider how in the current period of transition writers and arts institutions have set about reassessing their priorities, redefining their function and seeking new aesthetic directions in taking up the challenge of imagining a new society.
