Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between June 1967 and the end of 1973, most independent Black African states abandoned their neutral position in the Middle East conflict, cut their ties with Israel, and gave full support to the political aims of the Arab states. Since the beginning of 1974, however, and despite attempts by the Arabs to shield their new allies from the adverse effects of the 1973-74 world oil and economic crises, the alliance has begun to fragment as the African states become transformed from partners to clients and dependents of the Arabs. This study examines the roots of the African conversion, the nature of the evolving relationship between the African and Arab states, and the reasons—economic and political—for the transformation of the alliance. Basic to that transformation, the authors argue, is a fundamental change in the international status and power of the Arab states, a change that has led them to cast their lot with the industrialized "First World" rather than with the poorer, less developed countries.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author looks at relations between Africans and Arabs from a historical and contemporary perspective. Tensions and hostilities in relations between the two partly fuelled by enslavement of Africans in Arab North Africa and in the Middle East today, the mistreatment of African workers in Arab countries as well as racism directed against them in the Arab world are some of the subjects covered in the book. Modern-day slavery is one of the most disturbing aspects of relations between Africans and Arabs. Documented cases of Africans sold at slave markets in Arab countries such as Libya and Algeria are some of the subjects addressed by the author. Racism is one of the biggest problems Africans face in Arab countries. Some of the biggest victims are housemaids who are tortured, brutalised, raped and even killed by their employers, working as slaves for 18 to 20 hours every day, are grossly underpaid and very often are not paid at all. Some of them even commit suicide because of the physical and emotional abuse they suffer. The author has documented some cases in his book. The plight of African migrants in North Africa, racism against them and against black people born and brought up in Arab countries, the perception and image of black people in Arab countries, modern-day slavery as an accepted way of life in Arab countries, what black visitors experience when they visit Arab countries, questions of identity – Arab versus African, why many Arabs of North Africa say they are not Africans, what needs to be done to address the asymmetrical relationship between Africans and Arabs, are some of the other subjects addressed as well. The author also contends that there is an imperative need for black African countries to be more self-reliant instead of depending on Arab countries to employ a large number of unemployed Africans under conditions which amount to slavery simply because their governments at home have failed to provide employment opportunities for them. The book is also a “blueprint” for Africa's redemption and how black African countries can address the problem of racism their people are subjected to, when they work in Arab countries of North Africa and in the Middle East, and explains why there has been some reluctance by African leaders to confront the problem even when the whole world knows black people are bought and sold like cattle and goats in Arab countries to work as slaves. The author contends that the final solution has to come from Black Africa, not from the Arab world. Among the strongest advocates of subcontinental Pan-Africanism - excluding Arab countries in North Africa - were presidents Kamuzu Banda and Leopold Sedar Senghor, Nigeria's vice president Obafemi Awolowo, and Anthony Enahoro, Nigeria's minister of information. Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni has articulated the same position. And as former Tanzanian president, Julius Nyerere, Nyerere stated: "Because of the imperatives of geography and history and religion and language, North Africa is part of the Middle East.....Africa south of the Sahara is isolated....Africa south of the Sahara is on its own.....Therefore, to develop, it will have to depend upon its own resources basically. Internal resources, nationally; and Africa will have to depend upon Africa. The leadership of the future will have to devise, try to carry out policies of maximum national self-reliance and maximum collective self-reliance. They have no other choice.”

Download or read book The Arabs and the Scramble for Africa written by John Craven Wilkinson and published by Equinox Publishing (UK). This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the history of the European Scramble for Africa from the perspective of the Omanis and other Arabs in East Africa. It will be of interest not only to African specialists, but also those working on the Middle East, where awareness is now emerging that the history of those settled on the southern peripheries of Arabia has been intimately entwined with Indian Ocean maritime activities since pre-Islamic times. The nineteenth century, however, saw these maritime borderlands being increasingly drawn into a new world economy, one of whose effects was the development of an ivory front in the interior of the continent that, by the 1850s, led the Omanis and Swahili to establish themselves on the Upper Congo. A reconstruction of their history and their interaction with Europeans is a major theme of this book. European colonial rivalries in Africa is not a subject in vogue today, while the Arabs are still largely viewed as invaders and slavers. The fact that the British separated the Sultanates of Muscat and Zanzibar is reflected in European research so that historians have little grasp of the geographic, tribal and religious continuum that persisted between overseas empire and the Omani homeland. Ibadism is regarded as irrelevant to the mainstream of Islamic religious protest whereas, during the lead up to establishing direct colonial rule, its ideology played a significant role; even the final rally against the Belgians in the Congo was conducted in the name of an Imam al-Muslimîn. Back home, the fall out from the British massacre that crushed the last Arab attempt to reassert independence in Zanzibar was an important contributory cause towards the re-founding of an Imamate that survived until the mid-1950s.

Download or read book Black Arab Encounters in Literature and Film written by Touria Khannous and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-08-27 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book investigates how representations of Black Africans have been negotiated over time in Arabic literature and film. The book offers direct readings of a representative selection of primary texts, shedding light on the divergent ways these authors understood race across different genres, including pre-Islamic classical poetry, polemical essays, travel narratives, novels, and films. Starting with the first recognized Black-Arab poet Antara Ibn Shaddad (580 C.E.) and extending right up to the present day, the works examined illuminate the changes in consciousness that attended Black Africans as they negotiated their position in Arab society. In a twist to Edward Said’s Orientalism, the book argues that scholars in the Middle East and North Africa generated a hierarchical representational discourse themselves, one equally predicated on the Self-Other binary. However, it also demonstrates that Arab racial discourse is not a linear rhetoric but changes according to history, political circumstances, and ideologies such as tribal politics, the Shu’ubiyya movement, nationalism, and imperialism. Blacks and Arabs have had tangled relationships that are based not only on race but also on kinship and solidarity due to trade and other types of connections. Challenging fundamental assumptions of Black Diaspora studies and postcolonial studies, this book will be of interest to scholars of the African diaspora, Arabic literature, Middle East studies, and critical race studies.
