Extractions: When most people think of Judaism in black Africa, they think of the so-called Falashas, Bet Israel, Ethiopian Jews who have kept the essentials of biblical Judaism despite being isolated geographically from other Jews for thousands of years. The Falashas are in fact the tip of the iceberg. Judaism came to Africa long before Islam or even Christianity, itself an early arrival. Hebrews have been in Africa hundreds of years before the exodus from Egypt. So influential was ancient Judaism in northern and eastern Africa that anthropologists have devised a test to tell whether a given tribe or people has Hebraic roots: It does so if males are circumcised at age of 1 or earlier. I am from South Sudan, the largely Christian, African portion of the Sudan, which has long been dominated by Arab Muslims to the north, in Khartoum. I am from a tribe called the Madi, and while we did not retain Judaism as thoroughly as did the Falashas in neighboring Ethiopia, I am amazed as I look back at how many of our customs seem to have come from the Hebrew Scriptures. Among Christians and non- Christians like, one G-d was worshipped. As in the Book of Leviticus, blood sacrifices were offered or sins. The worst sins required the sacrifice of a sheep, the ones below these a boat, and the "least" sins a chicken. A hereditary group of elders or priests decided which to sacrifice, and presided over these and other ceremonies.

TalkLine Fall 2000 Channels, Vol. 16, No. 4 Judy McCallum is a member of Knox Church, Spadina, Toronto ON, and is on the Renewal Fellowship Board. Sudan has had a lot of exposure recently in the news, raising questions and posing an ethical dilemma to Canadians. We have been forced to consider the ethics of Canadian business involvement in a country undergoing civil war and what the responsibility of Canadians might be when we are linked to war in another country. How - or should - we be involved? I had the privilege of spending two months in Sudan this spring, working with the Fellowship for African Relief, and was given a glimpse into the ravages of war on a country. Before I left for Sudan, I knew many facts, especially that the war in Sudan is a result of many interrelated factors. I knew that the war has religious roots: Muslim vs. Christian, and that the current government has declared Jihad against the southern Christians. I also knew that the war has ethnic roots, the primarily Arab North vs. African South, and economic roots, the South is rich in natural resources including oil. And finally I knew that the instability of the whole region (the Horn of Africa) contributes to the ongoing war in Sudan. After two short months living and working in Khartoum, I realized that the issues are even more complex than I had initially thought. The government is not just oppressing the South, but also anyone who doesn't agree with its interpretation of Islam. Therefore both Northerners and Southerners are suffering. Moreover, the fighting is not only between the North and the South, but there is also fighting within the South between different ethnic groups.

Extractions: From: I know a lady who did the Churukian Oil red O that was discussed last week or so on cell cultures with excellent results (seen in Science magazine on stem cell publications and advertisements in the past couple of years, her work!) It was less messy than a protocol with propylene glycol, easier to rinse off excess stain from cell cultures, and stains beautifully with hematoxylin counterstain with excellent brilliant red contrast to the blue counterstain. Oil Red O can also be purchased in small quantities from Aldrich, sister company to Sigma, and maybe a bit cheaper from Fisher or VWR if you have a term contract agreement from these companies.

http://www.crimesofwar.org/sudan-mag/sudan-hale.html

Extractions: April 2002 The takeover of the National Islamic Front government in 1989, and its drive to Islamize a country that is only partly Moslem, has not only led to massive killing, starvation displacement , and pauperization of the Dinka and Nuba populations in southern Sudan. There also has been a systematic drive to eliminate their religions, languages, legal systems, and customs. I believe we need to broaden our theoretical framework beyond the 1948 UN Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide to include the concept of what I describe as "cultural genocide." The original draft of the Convention contained a more inclusive definition of genocide: "the destruction of the specific character of the persecuted `group’ by forced transfer of children, forced exile

Extractions: THE GIRL CHILD AND EDUCATION IN SOUTH SUDAN. BY JOHN GACHIE. Petronas Dutt, a petit and lanky 12-year old girl is all smiles as she answers questions in halting broken English as her classmates giggle with amusement. At her school in Akot in the Lakes Province of South Sudan, she is one of the 80 girls in a school with 220 pupils in a good day and she was enjoying herself. Clad in skimpy threadbare navy-blue skirt and greenish sweater, a size or two smaller than her slender shoulders, Petronas gives nothing away that she is one of the lucky few girl child in South Sudan. Unlike many other parts of South Sudan, Akot and surrounding areas have been relatively peaceful since1998. In the period since 1998 however, her lot like those of other girls in her school has improved. She has managed to move up from grade one to three. She has also escaped from following her elder sisters and brothers to the cattle camps as is the tradition of her Dinka people and most important, has as yet to be sought of as a wife.

http://poverty.worldbank.org/library/region/4/161/

Extractions: This paper offers a cross-cultural analysis of helpfulness in urban settings in England and the Sudan. Social psychology research has found that although there are no significant differences in helpfulness toward friends and family members in rural and urban settings, people are less likely to help strangers and neighbors in urban settings than in rural settings. The authors examine whether this difference is due to an adaptation to the excessive demands of the urban environment, or to the personalities of urbanites that predispose them to unhelpfulness. England and the Sudan were studied to determine whether the difference in helpfulness could also be cultural. The authors found that the cause seemed to be the pressures of the urban environment, and concluded that urban environments may make it more difficult to build social capital.

http://www.metmuseum.org/toah/ht/02/afs/ht02afs.htm

Extractions: Nubia covers an area stretching along the Nile valley from the sixth cataract in the south to the first cataract in the north, which marks the southern border of pharaonic Egypt. Because no Nubian languages are recorded before about the second century B.C., the cultures of ancient Nubia are known primarily through archaeological remains supplemented by ancient Egyptian textual references to places such as Wawat and Kush, and to peoples such as the Nehesyu and the Medjayu. The names given to the different cultures and cultural phases have been assigned by modern archaeologists and historians. The A-Group culture is driven out of Lower Nubia by the Egyptians. During this period, Egypt dominates Nubia between the first and third cataracts, conducting periodic raids into Upper Nubia to the south. Egypt's purpose is to control trade in raw materials and to exploit the rich deposits of stone and gold in the deserts of Lower Nubia. To this end, Egyptian trading and mining settlements are established as early as Egypt's Dynasty 4 (ca. 2500 B.C.). In the late Old Kingdom (ca. 2200 B.C.), Egyptian texts document a warlike people called the Medjayu, who live in the eastern deserts of Upper and Lower Nubia. These nomads have alternately peaceful and hostile relations with the more settled populations along the Nile, both in Nubia and Egypt. Highly valued for their military skills, the Medjayu serve as mercenaries in the Egyptian army and desert police force from the late Old Kingdom. The Medjayu, a nomadic people, have left no identifiable archaeological remains earlier than the second millennium B.C.

Extractions: These nomads from the eastern Nubian desert have alternately peaceful and hostile relations with the more settled populations along the Nile, both in Nubia and Egypt. Highly valued for their military skills, the Medjayu serve as mercenaries in the Egyptian army and desert police force from the late Old Kingdom New Kingdom . As with most nomadic peoples, the Medjayu left little in the archaeological record. The only physical evidence attributed to them are distinctive burials, called pan graves, that appear sporadically in cemeteries of Upper Egypt and Lower Nubia beginning in the Second Intermediate Period. Kerma loses control of Lower Nubia at the beginning of Egypt's New Kingdom , when the Egyptian kings of Dynasty 18 begin a series of campaigns against Upper Nubia. By about 1450 B.C., Egypt controls Nubia as far south as the fourth cataract. Upper and Lower Nubia become a virtual colony of Egypt, ruled by a viceroy called the "King's Son of Kush." Egyptian settlements are established, and temples are built to Egyptian gods. The most important center is Napata, near the sacred mountain of Jebel Barkal, just downstream from the fourth cataract, where a temple is built to honor the great Theban god Amun. During this period, the majority Nubian population probably participates in the administration of the Egyptian province of Nubia.
