Download or read book PRIDES:LIONS OF MOREMI CL written by Pieter W. Kat and published by Smithsonian Books (DC). This book was released on 2000-03-17 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Illustrated with two hundred color photographs of lions at every stage of their lives, this striking volume reveals the worlds of four neighboring prides that roam the diverse habitats - swamps, seasonal rivers, dry floodplains, acacia forests, and thick woodland - of Botswana's Okavango Delta. Drawing on continuing field research begun in 1995, Pieter Kat shows how Okavango lions challenge long-held assumptions about sociability, mating strategies, and hunting techniques. Pride males will readily mate with females from other prides, sometimes even abandoning their original group; females often leave their offspring vulnerable to predators; and as hunters, lions are more prone to mistakes and scavenging than is commonly believed."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Book Synopsis Badass African Queens by : Zayd Moor
Download or read book Badass African Queens written by Zayd Moor and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2021-07-15 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: BADASS AFRICAN QUEENS is a coloring book based on the history of African queens. These are the Queen mothers who played important roles in local governments, social power, and influence in the 19th century. They stood out and worked tirelessly on improving the social welfare of their villages and kingdoms by showing gender equality as well as overseeing issues that involved both men and women together, such as adultery, rape, sodomization, and marital conflicts. The book recognizes Empress Kandake, Queen Nandi, Hatshepsut, Queen Moremi, Amina Mohamud, Queen Makeda, and Lingeer Ndat`e Yalla Mbodj as the best queen mothers of Africa. In Ethiopia, we had Empress Kandake or Candace who was regarded as one of the most dreaded war generals of her time, according to historians, she was a fierce, tactical, and uniting lady who at some point ended up humiliating Alexander the great. This made people know her as the Queen who humiliated Alexander the great. We also had Makeda Queen of Sheba Ethiopia who was also known as the queen of Sheba or "La Reine de Sabah" in French. She was a queen of incredible strength as she survived a battle with the serpent king Awre. The Zulu Kingdom in South Africa had Queen Nandi who was resilient as a mother and a hope against social pressures. She was the mother of Shaka Zulu, one of the Zulu kingdom's greatest kings. According to historians, during the reign of her son, she had significant influence over the affairs of the kingdom this shows how devoted she was to serve her people even. In ancient Egypt, Queen Hatshepsut became pharaoh, the fifth ruler of Dynasty 18. According to Egyptologist James Henry Breasted, she is known to be "the first great woman whose name has survived in history". In the ILE-IFE Kingdom, Nigeria was a courageous queen, Queen Moremi, who is said to have contributed to the deliverance of the Yobra tribe from oppression. We also see Amina Mohamud a Hausa warrior queen of the city-state Zazzau, presently in the Northwest region of Nigeria, is allowed by her grandfather to attend state meetings to gain familiarity with state procedures after discovering her leadership skills early. An act that ended up making Amina a very prominent leader. In Senegal, we see the last great lingeer (queen) Ndat`e Yalla Mbodj of Waalo, a kingdom located in what is now Northwest Senegal. During her reign, she fought against French colonization and the Moorish invasion of her kingdom. In the 19th century, Ndat`e Yalla and her sister Ndjeumbeut Mbodj, stood out as two of the most powerful women of 19th century Senegambiaan dynastic history. This book focuses on empowering, motivating, and encouraging young girls who have dreams of venturing into politics and leadership careers in the future. Empowering these young girls will also act as a gender equality tool as more girls will get motivated to venture into politics, which in the long run will assist boosting the amount of power currently held by women as it has greatly diminished since pre-colonial times.

Book Synopsis Voices from the Forest by : Tony Dold
Download or read book Voices from the Forest written by Tony Dold and published by Jacana Media. This book was released on 2012 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: .".. book which explores the journey of celebrating the link between people and nature, the book reveals how plants, animals and landscapes are profoundly reflected in Xhosa language, stories, poetry, religious rituals, healing practices and everyday customs that define Xhosa culture. Over the years cultural and spiritual meaning of nature in South Africa has been poorly recorded and often misunderstood. The current trade of medicinal plants is often destructive and unsustainable with an estimated 27 million South Africans making use of indigenous medicines. This is a serious detriment as natural resources have been a reliant for underprivileged people who gain food, fuel, medicines, and building materials from wild plants. Therefore the addition of information on edible and medicinal plants is of extreme importance ... Voices from the Forest gives a fresh positive approach to biodiversity conservation in SA by showing that people\2019s values for natural resources can be considered positively as a way forward to continued sustainable use. The book explores the role that nature plays in the cultural and spiritual landscapes of the Xhosa people in the Eastern Cape of South Africa and serves as a pointer to sustainable practices in the future. The underlying aim is ultimately sustaining cultural heritage and conserving biodiversity because in our modernising world cultural diversity is threatened by the loss of natural diversity and finding ways of protecting the region's biodiversity and cultural diversity is of vital importance"--Publisher's website.
Book Synopsis Rejected Princesses by : Jason Porath
Download or read book Rejected Princesses written by Jason Porath and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2016-10-25 with total page 653 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Blending the iconoclastic feminism of The Notorious RBG and the confident irreverence of Go the F**ck to Sleep, a brazen and empowering illustrated collection that celebrates inspirational badass women throughout history, based on the popular Tumblr blog. Well-behaved women seldom make history. Good thing these women are far from well behaved . . . Illustrated in a contemporary animation style, Rejected Princesses turns the ubiquitous "pretty pink princess" stereotype portrayed in movies, and on endless toys, books, and tutus on its head, paying homage instead to an awesome collection of strong, fierce, and yes, sometimes weird, women: warrior queens, soldiers, villains, spies, revolutionaries, and more who refused to behave and meekly accept their place. An entertaining mix of biography, imagery, and humor written in a fresh, young, and riotous voice, this thoroughly researched exploration salutes these awesome women drawn from both historical and fantastical realms, including real life, literature, mythology, and folklore. Each profile features an eye-catching image of both heroic and villainous women in command from across history and around the world, from a princess-cum-pirate in fifth century Denmark, to a rebel preacher in 1630s Boston, to a bloodthirsty Hungarian countess, and a former prostitute who commanded a fleet of more than 70,000 men on China’s seas.
