Download or read book Zimbabwe Township Music written by Joyce Jenje-Makwenda and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Zimbabwe Township Music is a celebration of age-old popular music, which was evolved by the early urban settlers as far back as the 1930's. Urban culture in those days was a product of mixed traditional, contemporary and Western influences, which all moulded into the unique township music. It is therefore the musical off-spring and melodic fusion of several tribal and cultural urban settlers in the early Black townships; typified by such variants as kwe la, tsabatsaba, marabiand afro-jazz.Township Music often became a symbol of identity and dissent in the Black townships, which did not go so well with the authorities of the day. As the political situation became tense, the music went under around 1963, when the Federation of Rhodesia and Nyasaland came to an end. At Zimbabwe's independence in 1980, Township Music resurfaced and trickled slowly back into the country, to a much awaited reception and revival. Today the Township Music craze is gripping the country, drawing even youthful enthusiasts in its wake. It would be painstaking to list the numerous pace-setters along the milestones of this musical odyssey. It suffices to mention only a representative few: Josaya Hadebe, Kenneth and Lina Mattaka, Evelyn and Simon Juba, Augustine Musarurwa, Moses Mphahlo-Mafuruse, Sonny Sondo, Simanga Tutani, John White, Andrew Chakanyuka, Dorothy Masuka, Faith Dauti, Paul Lunga, Tanga wekwa Sando, Prudence Katomeni Mbofana and Duduzile Manhenga.

Download or read book SheMurenga The Zimbabwean Women s Movement 1995 2000 written by Shereen Essof, and published by Weaver Press. This book was released on 2013-01-16 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book demonstrates the place of womens movements during a defining period of contemporary Zimbabwe. The government of Robert Mugabe may have been as firmly in power in 2000 as it was in 1995, but the intervening years saw severe economic crisis, mass strikes and protests, the start of land occupations, intervention in the war in the DRC, and the rise of the opposition Movement for Democratic Change. Shereen Essof shows how Zimbabwean women crafted responses to these and other events, and aimed for a feminist agenda that would prioritise the interests of the rural and urban poor. Rejecting both the strictures of patriarchy and the orthodoxies of established feminism, she demands that Zimbabwes women be heard in their own voices and in their own contexts. In doing so she writes a book that combines scholarly integrity with a wild, joyous cry for liberation.
