Osher Map Library and Smith Center for Cartographic Education Africa: A Continent Revealed A Traveling Exhibit at the Osher Map Library from January 24th to May 17th, 1998. This exhibition traces the development of European mapping of the African continent from the 16th to the 21st century. The maps reflect European geographers' earliest depictions of Africa, a fifth of the world's landmass. Later maps chronicle advances in mapmaking and document growing Western knowledge of various facets of the African Continent, including river sources, fauna, and indigenous peoples. It was first displayed at CIA Headquarters as part of their year-long, 50th anniversary celebrations. It has since been shown at the Georgia Museum of Art at the University of Georgia in Fall of 1996 and the Diggs Gallery at Winston-Salem State University in the summer of 1997. The exhibition consists of historical maps from the CIA map collection and the private collection of Michael B. Toth, a former Information Officer with the Foreign Broadcast Information Service. He and his wife began collecting maps in the early 1980s after an assignment with the U.S. Embassy in Swaziland. For this exhibit, the Osher Map Library is also displaying several rare maps of Africa in atlases from its cartographic collections. Please note that there is no proper web version of the exhibition. The following document provides a checklist of materials on display.

Geography South Africa is located, as one might expect, on the southern tip of Africa. It is bordered by the Atlantic Ocean on the west, the Indian Ocean on the south and east. Along its northern border, from west to east, lie Namibia, Botswana, and Zimbabwe, and to the northeast are Mozambique and Swaziland. Wholly-enclosed by South Africa, and situated in its eastern central plain, is the independent kingdom of Lesotho.

44. Indigenous And Minority Peoples' Views Of Language (Terralingua)
Ben Fredlund, A second language zulu speaker from S.africa. Indigenousand Minority peoples' Views About Language Contact us.
http://cougar.ucdavis.edu/nas/terralin/ip&lgs.html
The importance of language in human life and in determining the place of humans in the world is stressed in most past and present cultures on earth. In many religious traditions the spoken word is creative power. Ritual, as performed through language, is seen as a way of doing (and making) things right. For the Ancient Greeks, the logos was word, speech, discourse, and the principle that governs the order, and the orderly development, of the universe. Among peoples as different as the Dogon of Nigeria and the Navajo of the southern United States, elaborate theories of language exist that see language as the means through which the world is created, organized, classified, and beautified. Many religious traditions suggest that a diversity of languages (and cultures) is a good thing. In the Qur'an, the variety of linguistic expression among groups and individuals is seen as one sign of Allah's creative omnipotence, along with the creation of heaven and earth. As another example, according to the Acoma Pueblo Indians of New Mexico, the mother goddess Iatiku causes people to speak different languages so that it will not be as easy for them to quarrel. And it is even possible to suggest a different perspective on a widespread interpretation of the idea of Babel as a "curse". It is perhaps more accurate to see the divine intervention that brings about a multiplicity of languages as a way of curbing the arrogance and single-mindedness of monolingual empire buildersan arrogance that seems to be again on the rise.

http://www.apexart.org/conference/Ntuli.htm
by Pitiki Ntuli If I do not speak as an African, Act as an African; define the parameters around which I can speak I would be confessing to the sin of colluding with those who seek to gain hegemony over my soul. If I speak only as an African without acknowledging my other selves then I am condemning myself to the ghetto of thought from which I may not re-emerge. So I choose to speak not as the indigenous But as the endogenous African. Colonial discourse teaches us that we, Africans, were discovered in a state of ignorance and barbarism. Europe set out on a mission to civilise us. To this end, mission stations equipped with priests and nuns were established; together with them were colonial administrators. Colonialism became a project of invention. (Mudimbe). We were invented; that is, positioned, packaged, framed and fixed. The image we carried was not a complimentary one. Successive struggles for liberation were launched and in the 50's and 60's Africa attained its independence, with few exceptions and South Africa being one of them. The petty-bourgeoisie leaders of the new Africa inherited the colonial state and continued to rule without transforming it. Attempts at indigenisation of the state or its education systems were half hearted and consequently failed. The only evidence of indigenous practices was only in song, dress and dance. The content of the state and its educational institutions remained colonial. Cold War politics further prostituted the African state.

PEOPLE AND HISTORY
Primarily of the Bantu group of south and central Africa, the black Zimbabweans are divided into two major language groups, which are subdivided into several ethnic groups. The Mashona (Shona speakers), who constitute about 75% of the population, have lived in the area the longest and are the majority language group. The Matabele (Sindebele speakers), representing about 20% of the population and centered in the southwest around Bulawayo, arrived in within the last 150 years. An offshoot of the South African Zulu group, they maintained control over the Mashona until the white occupation of Rhodesia in 1890.
More than half of the white Zimbabweans, primarily of English origin, arrived in Zimbabwe after World War II. Afrikaners from South Africa and other European minorities, including Portuguese from Mozambique, are also present. Until the mid-1970s, there were about 1,000 white immigrants per year, but from 1976 to 1985 a steady emigration resulted in a loss of more than 150,000, leaving about 100,000 in 1992. English, the official language, is spoken by the white population and understood, if not always used, by more than half of the black population.
Early History
Archaeologists have found stone-age implements and pebble tools in several areas of Zimbabwe, a suggestion of human habitation for many centuries, and the ruins of stone buildings provide evidence of early civilization. The most impressive of these sites is the 'Great Zimbabwe' ruins, after which the country is named, located near Masvingo. Evidence suggests that these stone structures were built between the 9th and 13th centuries A.D. by indigenous Africans who had established trading contacts with commercial centers on Africa's southeastern coast.

An Evening with Madiba: A report from the Parliament of the World's Religions Gard Jameson I would like to share a few reflections on a recent trip to Capetown, South Africa, to the Parliament of the World¹s Religions to provide you with a brief flavor of a glimpse of light and life. I am providing some of these reflections the day after Nelson Mandela, Madiba, addressed the Parliament, saying, "We commend the Parliament of the World¹s Religions for its immense role in saying the common ground is greater and more enduring than those aspects which divide." The same day a beautiful brother from Senegal, Moussa N¹diaye, and a small group of Yankees, including Travis Binion, Marvin Gawryn, and Paula Thompson spoke similar sentiments to an assembled group of interested spiritual seekers at the University of South Africa in presenting The Urantia Book . In a land where division has created immense problems, a genuine spirit of dialogue has created the opportunity for immense solutions.

(5 pp) Personal tribal history, and sheer force of will propelled Nelson Mendela into politics; it is unlikely that apartheid would have been abolished with his tenacity, and organizational skills. To say that the right person was in the right place at the right time is not to negate any of Medela's skills, but neither can time and situation be ignored. According to Brink (2000), Mandela himself argues, that "I was not a messiah, but an ordinary man, who had become a leader because of extraordinary circumstances." Bibliography lists 6 sources
