Book Synopsis Letters from Kinshasa by : Milly Guildford
Download or read book Letters from Kinshasa written by Milly Guildford and published by Partridge Africa. This book was released on 2014-11-26 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Milly Guildford, recently divorced, takes a job in the Congo, working to bring good governance to a system riddled with corruption and mismanagement. She soon finds that life in Kinshasa is never straightforward. Coming face-to-face with the Congos bizarre bureaucracy, which seems to have grown even more powerful through the years of anarchy, she collaborates with a longtime friend, a married man who lives in London, to write a book about it. Collecting material for the book entails copying secret documents, a dangerous activity. It gives her friend an excuse to come to Kinshasa, which he does for much longer than is strictly necessary. Both the book and the man bring Milly more than her fair share of problems. Interwoven with this are accounts of her travels in the country, her bizarre social life, and her efforts to understand how things are done in Kinshasa.

Book Synopsis The Scottsboro Boys in Their Own Words by : Kwando M. Kinshasa
Download or read book The Scottsboro Boys in Their Own Words written by Kwando M. Kinshasa and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2014-01-23 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a collection of letters written by the nine African American defendants in the infamous March 1931 Scottsboro, Alabama, rape case. Though most of the defendants were barely literate and all were teenagers when incarcerated, over the course of almost two decades in prison they learned the rudiments of effective letter writing and in doing so forcefully expressed a wide range of perspectives on the falsity of the charges against them as their incarceration became a cause celebre both in the United States and internationally. Central to this book is the chronologically structured presentation of letters (1931-1950), including some correspondence from attorneys and members of Scottsboro support committees. The original grammar, syntax and vernacular of the defendants are maintained in a desire to preserve the authenticity of these letters.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: David James had finally struggled to the rank of Colonel in the British Army when he was told what the price was going to be. A year in the Democratic Republic of Congo and overseeing the UN operation to provide the security for their first general elections in almost half a century. And looking after two parrots called Happy and Grumpy. What could go wrong? The Democratic Republic of Congo is a place of extremes - awash with gold, diamonds and rare metals, possessing sufficient power in its mighty river system to provide 10% of the world's power, the cockpit of the bloodiest war since 1945 and the ongoing object of the most expensive mission in United Nations history. And yet most Westerners would struggle to place it on a map.

Download or read book Congo Inc. written by In Koli Jean Bofane and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2018-01-08 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To the sound of machine gun fire and the smell of burning flesh, award-winning author In Koli Jean Bofane leads readers on a perilous, satirical journey through the civil conflict and political instability that have been the logical outcome of generations of rapacious multinational corporate activity, corrupt governance, widespread civil conflict, human rights abuses, and environmental degradation in Africa. Isookanga, a Congolese Pygmy, grows up in a small village with big dreams of becoming rich. His vision of the world is shaped by his exploits in Raging Trade, an online game where he seizes control of the world's natural resources by any means possible: high-tech weaponry, slavery, and even genocide. Isookanga leaves his sleepy village to make his fortune in the pulsating capital Kinshasa, where he joins forces with street children, warlords, and a Chinese victim of globalization in this blistering novel about capitalism, colonialism, and the world haunted by the ghosts of Bismarck and Leopold II. Told with just enough levity to make it truly heartbreaking, Congo Inc. is a searing tale about ecological, political, and economic failure.
