Book Synopsis The Fathers of My Children: the Genealogy and Lifestyle Changes of the Umorens of Asong in Eastern Nigeria by : Joseph A. Umoren
Download or read book The Fathers of My Children: the Genealogy and Lifestyle Changes of the Umorens of Asong in Eastern Nigeria written by Joseph A. Umoren and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2015-10-09 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Fathers of My Children: The Genealogy and Lifestyle Changes of the Umorens of Asong in Eastern Nigeria describes the ancestral origin of the Umorens and the existing lineal connection with all Africans in the Diaspora, regardless of their different migrational pathways in which they found themselves outside of Africa, particularly in North America. The book is also a description of the total African experience throughout human history and of the human motivation in the African voluntary and involuntary migrations. The causes and effects of such migrations are delineated to include the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade, the Partition of Africa, and the Colonization and Decolonization of Africa. In part, it is a story of the African holocaust, which spans over four hundred years. While the book does not call for an African retreat from the New Wave of globalism and the individual quest for greener pastures, it serves to remind all Africans of the need to reverse African economic and cultural deprivation, the decay of the African villages and traditional lifestyles through their renewed Africanism that connects one to another and rebuilds the communities they left behind.
Book Synopsis Culture and History of Olokoro People by : Paul Okamnaonu Nwaogu
Download or read book Culture and History of Olokoro People written by Paul Okamnaonu Nwaogu and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2016-06-25 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book about Olokoro, our community. The account is not comprehensive, but it forms an important beginning (as other accounts before it) in the formal and permanent documentation of the history, culture, and the way of life of our people and their achievements. The community has grown from a point where its government has transformed from a mere disparate village organization to a level where a unified election dominates the process. The community is made up of diverse population with different ideological orientations that should be harnessed for the development of the community. His Royal Highness Eze J. J. Ogbulafor, Uvuoma 1 of Olokoro, took development of the community seriously as well as extolled the culture. The present dispensation of having many Ezes in Olokoro will lead to progress if properly harnessed by all and sundry. My vision for Olokoro in this regard is articulated in my autobiography (Nwaogu 2015.175). Olokoro community belongs to us all, and denizens should feel free to contribute ideas that will move our community forward. Perceptive readers are welcome, and this includes sharing of comments, suggestions, insights that will broaden our minds toward the achievement of a unified, progressive, and respectable community.

Book Synopsis The Other Special Relationship by : R. Kelley
Download or read book The Other Special Relationship written by R. Kelley and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-02-22 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The close diplomatic, economic, and military ties that comprising the "special relationship" between the United States and Great Britain have received plenty of attention from historians over the years. Less frequently noted are the countries' shared experiences of empire, white supremacy, racial inequality, and neoliberalism - and the attendant struggles for civil rights and political reform that have marked their recent history. This state-of-the-field collection traces the contours of this other "special relationship," exploring its implications for our understanding of the development of an internationally interconnected civil rights movement. Here, scholars from a range of research fields contribute essays on a wide variety of themes, from solidarity protests to calypso culture to white supremacy.

Book Synopsis Colonialism and Violence in Nigeria by : Toyin Falola
Download or read book Colonialism and Violence in Nigeria written by Toyin Falola and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2009-09-25 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Colonialism and Violence in Nigeria looks closely at the conditions that created a legacy of violence in Nigeria. Toyin Falola examines violence as a tool of domination and resistance, however unequally applied, to get to the heart of why Nigeria has not built a successful democracy. Falola's analysis centers on two phases of Nigerian history: the last quarter of the 19th century, when linkages between violence and domination were part of the British conquest; and the first half of the 20th century, which was characterized by violent rebellion and the development of a national political consciousness. This important book emphasizes the patterns that have been formed and focuses on how violence and instability have influenced Nigeria today.

Verbal Riddim, based on his doctoral dissertation at the University of Mannheim, is a successful blend of the performer and the researcher.

"But though Melda finds daily uplift in her work, her inner life starts to come apart. Her brother Arnie has married a white woman and his defection from the family and the distress Melda witnesses amongst the children she fosters causes her repressed memories to surface and her own 'buried wounds to weep'." "Melda confronts the cruelties she has suffered as an 'outside child' at the hands of her stepmother. But though the past drives Melda towards breakdown, she finds strengths there too, especially in the memories of the loving, supporting women of the 'yards' of rural Guyana. Then there is Pa who, in his new material security in the USA, discovers a gentle caring side and teaches his children to sing 'in praise of love and children."
