Let me say it boggles my mind that you did not have a conversation about the "terror" attack in Nairobi that led into questions about, say, Somalia. Neo--colonialism. Like you could have had a great talk about Hutu-Tutsi "genocide" in light of the origin of that tribal speciation in Belgian colonial practices: the favored servant class became known as a separate tribe despite their all speaking the same language, normally the determinant of tribal status in anthropology. And Kenya's own colonial heritage is still alive: Caroline Elkins' "Imperial Reckoning" and just recently some Kenyan survivors of English quasi-genocidal activities, like locking up the entire Kikuyu tribe in "strategic hamlets" (imagine the physical abuse needed to gain their "cooperation"), received financial awards from some English tribunal.chrisrushlauhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11432949074147807503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2771563516536608026.post-86280036441984863092013-10-21T12:30:15.695-07:002013-10-21T12:30:15.695-07:00I gather you did not delve into pro-Israel evangel...I gather you did not delve into pro-Israel evangelization in Africa by "Christian missionaries" and others. Nor into European neo-colonialism in Africa, which also is the matrix for understanding modern Israel in many respects.chrisrushlauhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11432949074147807503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2771563516536608026.post-75494788564350654832013-10-21T07:42:39.949-07:002013-10-21T07:42:39.949-07:00thanks for this resource, always looking for easil...thanks for this resource, always looking for easily referenced activism items!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16930641193194233259noreply@blogger.com
