Extractions: African American jazz is an international music in its ability to encompass elements of other traditions. Blood Drum Spirit is an effort to adapt the deep structures of Asian, African, and Native American traditions into the African American sound, a life force creating a space for the gods to descend, a positive alternative for what we see as a corrupt and parasitic status quo on plantation earth. Over the past centuries there have been political and cultural struggles which have impacted the world's peoples, and our music is a non-verbal manifesto for cultural and political self-determination, in opposition to the enslaving uses of armies, technologies, exploitive economics and 'religion', by the so called 'developed countries'. This album crystallizes my work over two decades in world music. I have researched, performed, and recorded with master artists from China, Philippines, India, Indonesia, the Caribbean, West Africa, African America, Ireland, and Native America; most importantly, I have lived these musical traditions and through their wisdom, come a little closer to what lies behind the music.

If you would like to see some other articles from Missionalia , have a look at the list of Missionalia articles on the Web THE DYNAMICS OF INDIGENOUS CHARISMATIC MISSIONARY ENTERPRISES IN WEST AFRICA Matthews A. Ojo ABSTRACT Indigenous missionary organisations resulting from the Charismatic Renewal in West Africa have proliferated since the 1970s. Through their dramatic growth and missionary vigour they contribute to shifting Christianity's centre of gravity to the non-Western world. Members of these transcultural and transnational movements are mainly the educate elite, and they are strong on college and university campuses. The article discusses the important charismatic missionary organisations in West Africa one by one, pointing out how they succeeded in crossing national frontiers to become international movements. A closing section identifies the key characteristics of these missions and gives a brief evaluation. INTRODUCTION The International Consultation on Missions held in Jos, Nigeria in August 1985 on the theme, "Mobilising indigenous missions for the harvest," was the first ever West African regional missions conference. Sponsored by the Nigeria Evangelical Mission Association (NEMA), the consultation drew participants from Ghana, Cameroon, Kenya, Uganda, Nigeria, Guatemala, England, and USA. The conference reviewed the progress made by indig enous missionary initiatives, sought ways to stimulate and co-ordinate emerging indigenous missionary efforts, and lastly explored the means and patterns of co-operation between Western and Third World missions agencies (Gbade 1988:1-4).

Extractions: THE ARKLETON CENTRE Room: B29, St. Mary's Phone: Email: k.hart@abdn.ac.uk Dr Keith Hart Dr. Hart has taught anthropology at Cambridge and eight other universities around the world. At Cambridge he was Director of the African Studies Centre and received the first ever teaching prize in the humanities and social sciences. He contributes now to the formation of an anthropology teaching programme at Aberdeen under the leadership of Professor Tim Ingold. He is best known for having coined the concept of the informal economy. He is currently a member of a scientific committee of the French Ministry of Culture directing research into the informal economy in France. He teaches a module in the anthropology of development every year for a master's course on co-operation in development at Pavia, Italy. His home is in Paris and this is the occasion for an ongoing experiment in teleworking. This is one of the themes of the Arkleton Centre whose logo is a cottage linked to the world through a mouse. Keith Hart has never been a specialist in rural development, but he is the author of The Political Economy of West African Agriculture (1982) and wrote an unfinished study of the Agricultural Revolution with John Bryden. His main interest for thirty five years has been on the relationship between rural and urban areas and the formation of translocal societies through migration. In terms of the Centre's three research themes, Dr. Hart brings to 'Rural development and the modern economy' engagement with the transformations of world economy in our times; to 'Social lives and social justice' a concern with inequality becoming so extreme that world society today resembles nothing so much as the old regime of 18th century France; and to 'Theory, nature and society' a lifelong interest in the history of social theory, anthropology and methodology.

Extractions: Sixty-four-year-old Baybie Hoover and her closest friend, Ginger Brown, both born blind, pitched their way from Wichita, Kansas, to New York City by singing religious music on the street with tin cups in hand. The film is a loving portrait of Baybies warm, wise, ever-enduring spirit. Mistreated by her stepmother, made pregnant by her uncle, forcibly separated from her child, and sterilized by the state, Baybie has faced trials that would have broken the spirits of other less-determined characters. As an intimate portrait of a woman who has refused to be a victim of life, this film celebrates the human spirit without artificial sentiment. Suggested Classroom Activity: Have students write a portrait of someone in their community whom they have previously overlooked; discuss together how taking a close look at someone can change ones perspective. The Landscapes of Frederic Edwin Church WA-386 Narrated by Nicolai Cikovsky, Jr., Curator of American Art at the National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C., this video traces Churchs career from his early studies in the Catskills and the Hudson River Valley with the eminent landscape painter Thomas Cole. The program continues through Churchs maturity, when his grand, all-encompassing paintings of the great natural wonders of the Americas made him one of the nations most celebrated landscape painters of the 19th century. The program includes live footage of the Catskills and of Churchs final work of art, Olana, his splendid house overlooking the Hudson River.
