Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Magnificent and Beggar Land is a powerful account of fast-changing dynamics in Angola, an important African state that is a key exporter of oil and diamonds and a growing power on the continent. Based on three years of research and extensive first-hand knowledge of Angola, it documents the rise of a major economy and its insertion in the international system since it emerged in 2002 from one of Africa's longest and deadliest civil wars. The government, backed by a strategic alliance with China and working hand in glove with hundreds of thousands of expatriates, many from the former colonial power, Portugal, has pursued an ambitious agenda of state-led national reconstruction. This has resulted in double-digit growth in Sub-Saharan Africa's third largest economy and a state budget in excess of total western aid to the entire continent. Scarred by a history of slave trading, colonial plunder and war, Angolans now aspire to the building of a decent society. How has the regime, led by President José Eduardo dos Santos since 1979, dealt with these challenges, and can it deliver on popular expectations? Soares de Oliveira's book charts the remarkable course the country has taken in recent years.

Download or read book Libba written by Laura Veirs and published by Chronicle Books. This book was released on 2018-01-16 with total page 49 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Elizabeth Cotten was only a little girl when she picked up a guitar for the first time. It wasn't hers (it was her big brother's), and it wasn't strung right for her (she was left-handed). But she flipped that guitar upside down and backwards and taught herself how to play it anyway. By age eleven, she'd written "Freight Train," one of the most famous folk songs of the twentieth century. And by the end of her life, people everywhere—from the sunny beaches of California to the rolling hills of England—knew her music. This lyrical, loving picture book from popular singer-songwriter Laura Veirs and debut illustrator Tatyana Fazlalizadeh tells the story of the determined, gifted, daring Elizabeth Cotten—one of the most celebrated American folk musicians of all time.

Download or read book God in South Africa written by Albert Nolan and published by ATF Press. This book was released on 2024-02-01 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a reprint of the 1988 publication which is now out-of-print. The book was written while Albert Nolan was in hiding during the State of Emergency in South Africa. This volume includes reviews of the book used with permission from the South African Grace and Truth journal from 1990. The author believes that in South Africa 'the practice of the struggle is the practice of faith', and to show this he reviews the central themes of the Christian faith as found in the Old Testament and the preaching of Jesus, the nature of sin and salvation, and of God's action in the world. He also faces the dilemma of Christians who can no longer support the apartheid state but are uncertain where the liberation struggle will lead. Like his best-selling Jesus before Christianity, God in South Africa is a contextual theology, a theology rooted in the painful conversion of a church to the cause of liberation. It can be regarded, the author says, as a conversation between South African Christians, but out of that conversation comes a challenge to Christians everywhere to discover the meaning of the gospel, to find God, in their situation. This profound book, written in the 1980s to guide those seeking to deploy the gospel message against the repressive and abhorrent South African apartheid regime, continues to speak powerfully to all peoples in all times and in all places. It continues to show how the gospels respond to the signs of the times anywhere that people are in crisis, providing the tools to build a contextualised and local theology that can preach the good news of God's liberating power against all forms of injustice. Albert Nolan, South Africa's Gustavo Gutierrez, revealed hope that God cares for and finds the poor and oppressed wherever they are. For my own community, the potential to construct a contextualised and local Ukrainian theology offers hope that the good news always challenges those who oppress and forever speaks liberation for those burdened by an unjust war and the despair found in its wake.

Download or read book The Kings of Swing written by Craig Urquhart and published by Penguin Random House South Africa. This book was released on 2013-09-01 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Kings of Swing is the intimate and extraordinary story of those South African golfers who have won numerous Major championships – more than any other nation outside of the United States. Their victories were achieved despite decades of sporting isolation and, during the post-apartheid era, in the shadow of possibly the greatest athlete of all time. This is a story of plane, train and car crashes, psychosurgery, a lightning strike, a broken beer bottle, a misplaced marker, a beautiful autistic boy and a scandal that ensnared the country’s most famous sportsman and led to the resignation of a prime minister. It is a story of the power of the mind and the power of the body in this, the most fickle of all sports. It is a story of dramatic highs and lows, of desperate poverty and fabulous wealth. It is a rare glimpse into the extraordinary lives of South Africa’s top golfers ...
