Adventure in Africa
Author: Charles Partee
Publisher: University Press of America
ISBN: 9780761818090
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 476
Book Description
The story of Don McClure describes five decades of adventurous commitment to serving some of the most primitive people of Sudan and Ethiopia in the middle years of the 20th century. The lively narrative of life among the Shulla, Nuer, Dinka, Anuak, and Somali reads like a well-crafted fiction. Adventure in Africa is a winsome and challenging account of a wonderfully human, incredibly brave, relentlessly energetic, and completely happy man who devoted half a century to East Africa when he was shot to death in 1977.

African Presence in the Americas
Author: Carlos Moore
Publisher: Africa Research and Publications
ISBN:
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 544
Book Description
This book is comprised of the proceedings of the First and Only Conference on Negritude ever held in the Americas. The Conference which gathered intellectuals of African descent from various countries of the new continent was held in Miami in 1987 around the theme "Negritude, Ethnicity and Afro Cultures in the Americas." The towering presence of Aimé Césaire and Léopold Sédar Senghor, side by side on a public forum for the first and, most likely, the last time since The First World Festival of Negro Arts, hosted by Senegal in 1966, bestowed a solemn summit quality on this impressive gathering. The untimely death of Cheikh Anta Diop, the scientist , Alioune Diop, the strategist, Léon Damas, the uncompromisingly anti-colonialist writer deprived the Conference participants of their physical presence, but their spirit hovered over the entire city during these memorable three days. Since the conference, death also robbed the Black World of the brilliant minds of Lelia Gonzalez, St. Clair Drake and Alex Haley who participated. Men of letters and political pioneers, Césaire and Senghor have ineradicably marked world history. At the close of this millenium, their incomparable intellectual contribution has come to symbolize the divergent continuity of the two powerful currents of thought launched, at the beginning of this century, by Booker T. Washington, Ida B. Wells, W.E.B. DuBois, Marcus Garvey, Jean Price Mars, Anténor Firmin (and many less known African men and women thinkers) in what some have termed the Great Debate.
