Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do people whose entire way of life has been destroyed and who witnessed horrible abuses against loved ones construct a new future? How do people who have survived the ravages of war and displacement rebuild their lives in a new country when their world has totally changed? In Making Refuge Catherine Besteman follows the trajectory of Somali Bantus from their homes in Somalia before the onset in 1991 of Somalia’s civil war, to their displacement to Kenyan refugee camps, to their relocation in cities across the United States, to their settlement in the struggling former mill town of Lewiston, Maine. Tracking their experiences as "secondary migrants" who grapple with the struggles of xenophobia, neoliberalism, and grief, Besteman asks what humanitarianism feels like to those who are its objects and what happens when refugees move in next door. As Lewiston's refugees and locals negotiate coresidence and find that assimilation goes both ways, their story demonstrates the efforts of diverse people to find ways to live together and create community. Besteman’s account illuminates the contemporary debates about economic and moral responsibility, security, and community that immigration provokes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE BANTU ARE THE ANCIENT HEBREW ISRAELITES OF THE BIBLETHE SECRET OF THE VATICAN:When Bantus came to Africa, they controlled west, central, east and Southern Africa. They took all the forest to pygmies to avoid the spreading of Islam. Those from the west joined Bantu gala in the forest to shield against Muslims. And they called themselves bar-kongolo in DRC. Bantus' also called themselves yahounds. (yehud-Aramaic Hebrew) meaning 'judah' which is the same capital of Cameroon to day (yahounde).Most of the tribes in Zambian and Southern Africa can trace their roots from West and east Africa. Most of the tribes kept the samba (Shabbat) which is still being practice in Brazil and Cuba. Others have kept the circumcision of male's among African tribes ; others lost the tradition.Most of them were killed if they kept Shabbat. Bantus were also given a title by the Muslims as the "people of the book". This is because the arabs stated trading in slaves 1,000 years before the European slave trade. Hence, informed the Portuguese about the people of the book, a people cursed by God and predestined as slaves (Deuteronomy 28: 15-68).The Muslims also called the western Sudan yahoode which means, "the lost tribes of Israel". These Hebrews were also led captive in to many African nations by many indigenous tribes on the west and east coast of Africa. Some were sold on the basis of losing in a war. Tribes men would sell Hebrews directly to Europeans and Muslims.The word "Kongolo" ancient 'koungelo' is derived from two Hebrew words; In this case, we have "kun" meaning established and "gelo" or "golo" means exile, today It is called CONGO. 95 to 99 of Bayithu or Bantu slaves came from the following places along the Atlantic and Indian oceans. Zanji land or Zanzibar in Tanzania is one of the first places were slaves came through and more accuracy is needed to determine the percentage.2.Congo DR and Angola 39.4% Southeast Africa Mozambique and Madagascar 4.7%Nigeria delta, Cameroon, Equatorial Guine and Gabon Bantu slaves 14.6%Senegal and Gambia 4.8%Guinea, Guinea Bissau and Sierra Leon 4.1%Liberia and Ivory coast 1.8%Gold coast (Ghana and Ivory coast) 10.4%

Download or read book The Bantu Languages of Africa written by M. A. Bryan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-22 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The area covered by this book, originally published in 1953, is one that has long been recognized as presenting many problems from the point of view of Bantu linguistic studies. Almost all the material set out in this present work is based on notes taken in the field, and in many cases presented completely new facts. The sources of the information used are listed at the end of the linguistic description of each of the groups of languages dealt with. Since there are so many languages to be covered it would be impracticable to give even an outline of the main features of each of them, so an outline is given of the main characteristics of each separate group. One language is used as the type for each group, for the purpose of listing examples of the nominal prefixes, verbal conjugation, and personal prefixes. Other features are illustrated from whichever language is the most suitable.

Download or read book Linguistic Ties Between Ancient Egyptian and Bantu written by Fergus Sharman and published by Universal-Publishers. This book was released on 2013-12 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a unique perspective on the linguistic relationships between the Ancient Egyptian and Bantu languages of East/Central/Southern Africa. It will be of interest to readers of Egyptology, linguists, students, and the wider public who wish to find out more about the structure of the Ancient Egyptian language and how it connects with other languages, particularly with Bantu languages. The subject matter is different from other books as it examines the etymology of words, together with their sound/meaning relationships and shows by using verifiable hieroglyphic forms how Ancient Egyptian words may be pronounced by inserting Bantu vowels which fit the meanings derived from the skeletal templates of consonants in the Ancient Egyptian language.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hountondji contends that ideological manifestations of this view that stress the uniqueness of the African experience are protonationalist reactions against colonialism conducted, paradoxically, in the terms of colonialist discourse. Hountondji argues that a genuine African philosophy must assimilate and transcend the theoretical heritage of Western philosophy and must reflect a rigorous process of independent scientific inquiry.
