International Issues ] [All Data] Background Civil war has been the norm in Angola since independence from Portugal [ info ] in 1975. A 1994 peace accord between the government and the National Union for the Total Independence of Angola (UNITA) provided for the integration of former UNITA insurgents into the government and armed forces. A national unity government was installed in April of 1997, but serious fighting resumed in late 1998, rendering hundreds of thousands of people homeless. Up to 1.5 million lives may have been lost in fighting over the past quarter century.

Extractions: Anne Pitsch, January 2000 Gil Peleg, November 2002 Hutus in the Democratic Republic of Congo Group Population (1998): 1 470 000 (3% of total population) Group Type : Ethnoclass Risk Assessment Analytic Summary The only parties truly protecting non-combatant Hutus at this juncture are the Interahamwe militia (Rwandese Hutus now based in Congo) and Forces for the Defense of Democracy (Burundian Hutus now based in Congo) (KN1SPT98-00 = 12/13), although they are also responsible for them being targets of attack. Because militant Hutus are sponsored by Kabilas government, they are not considered to be rebelling against the current regime (REB98-00 = 0; PROT98-00 = 0). Most of the land occupied by the Banyarwandans in North-Kivu traditionally belonged to local chiefs who rented it to the Banyarwandans on terms and taxes imposed by the chiefs. In 1993, the Banyrwandans began agitating against perceived injustices, especially paying taxes to local chiefs. There has long been tension between livestock farmers, the Banyarwanda, and indigenous crop farmers in the area, and in March 1993, tensions exploded in several villages in northern Kivu. Some reports blame the Hunde for starting the fighting, others blame the Banyarwanda. Regardless of who began the bloodshed, it escalated into large-scale ethnic fighting. Between March 1993 and January 1994, over 10,000 people were reportedly killed and over 250,000 were displaced. Banyarwanda were said to number about two million in Kivu before the killings began. Most of the dead and displaced were Banyarwandan.
Congo, Republic Of indigenous People. prohibits discrimination based on ethnicity; however, the indigenous Pygmy ethnic groups, such as the Lari, Vili, Sundi, bembe, and Bahangala http://www.state.gov/g/drl/rls/hrrpt/2003/27722.htm
Extractions: The Republic of Congo The security forces include the police, the Gendarmerie, and the armed forces; however, the functional distinction between these forces is not always clear. In theory, the police respond first to security incidents, with gendarmes and army units intervening later if necessary; however, in practice overlapping operations were common. At times, the Government did not have full control over some members or units of the security forces. The Angolan armed forces, under a bilateral agreement to provide security, had departed by year's end. Some members of the security forces committed serious human rights abuses. The economy, which was in transition from a state-directed economy to a market-oriented economy, suffered serious revenue losses by year's end, mostly from a drop in oil prices and in revenue from the non-oil sector. However, oil exports remained the country's main sources of foreign exchange. Approximately 70 percent of the population lived in poverty. Lack of transparency and inefficient government operations hindered rehabilitation and development. In 2002, there were reports that rebel militias under Pasteur Ntumi, known as the "Ninjas," committed serious human rights abuses; however, there were fewer reports after the signing of the March 17 Peace Accord.
KishainSAfrica3 for a new employee by the name of Busi bembe. the oppressors religion instead of your indigenous religion, at I thought how giving to let people see you in http://home.earthlink.net/~ethnogrrl/KishainSAfrica3.html
Extractions: Busi is supposed to take over certain regions from the Director of the Comunity Outreach element of STF (there is a research element too). We were in Botswana for three days beginning October 29, 2001 and it was a packed agenda. The flight from Johannesburg to Gaberone, Botswana is about 2 hours. The currency is the Pula and Thebe and the official language is English though the national language is Setswana. I wanted to share highlights with you. We toured with Kofi (like the drink as he likes to say) Addo who is actually a real African Prince. His son is slated to be the next king of their estate. He chooses to work as an NGO Technical Advisor for AIDS/STDs Unit of the United Nations Development Program. Kofi worked for 4 years in Uganda in the struggle against AIDS. He felt that the spread of AIDS in Uganda was more cultural as people often partake in polygamy, wife sharing (for example if a man marries, but does not have enough cows for a dowry, his brother may give him cows, now his brother is entitled to have access to his wife), wife inheritance (where when husband dies a woman passes with the property to the husband) or circumsion where the same knife is used on several boys. People were ready to talk about it and make changes as every person Kofi met knew of at least 2-3 people who had died of AIDS. He had worked in Botswana for 6 months and felt that the AIDS struggle in Botswana was harder, because it was coming from outside sources and the stigma was still there and people were hiding their relatives who were dying of HIV/AIDS. He felt the root cause of the spread of the virus was more geographic (vs. cultural) as he said that sometimes people could commute an hour and ½ a day to work in Gaborone (the capital) from small villages. Often the disease will be contracted in the major cities and brought back to the villages and it is spread from there

Extractions: NO JITTERS, ONLY SMILES, SMILES, SMILES... THE AUDIENCE WAS ELECTRIC AND WELL CONNECTED TO THE NEW BAND. VINNY WAS WELL RECEIVED AND WAS GLAD TO BE BACK IN THE SADDLE AGAIN. HE ADDS A WHOLE NEW DIMENSION TO THE BAND FORMALLY KNOWN AS PLANET DRUM. VINNY ROCKS...AND HE IS WEIRD, SO BEAUTIFULLY WILD AND SPONTANEOUS. HIS VOCALS ON THE NEW SONG, ENDLESS SKIES- I WROTE FOR MY WIFE 2 VALENTINES DAYS AGO WERE ESPECIALLY POWERFUL. HIS HIGH HARMONIES DEAD-ON AND HIS ENTHUSIASM FOR THE NEW MATERIAL WAS QUITE EVIDENT. BARNEY DOYLE IS WHAT I WOULD CALL A GUITAR POET; TRULY GIFTED AND VERY LYRICAL. HE DARTS IN AND OUT VERY MUCH LIKE OUR OLD FRIEND GARCIA, BUT HAS A SOUND AND MIND OF HIS OWN. SOMEHOW STRANGELY FAMILIAR YET FRESH AND NEW AT THE SAME TIME. SOFT VIBE WITH A STINGER AT THE END. RICH SHLOSSER IS A VERY DIFFERENT KIND OF DRUMMER- TIMEKEEPER. IN THIS BAND THE TRAP DRUMMER MUST REMAIN STEADY AND COOL UNDER FIRE WHILE THE POLYRHYTHMS DANCE AROUND THE CLAVE. HE BURNS STEADY AND APPROACHES THE GROOVE WITH A CAREFUL AND CALM CENTER. HE IS THE EPITOME OF STEADY. HE HAS A LIGHT TOUCH WHICH SEEMS TO BE CONTAGIOUS FOR THE CROSS- POLLINIZATIONS OF THE RHYTHMIC CORE OF THIS BAND. HE WAS THE DRUMMER ON ROD STEWART'S TONIGHT'S THE NIGHT AND HAS DRUMMED ON MANY HIT SONGS DURING HIS GREAT CAREER AS ONE OF THE TOP STUDIO DRUMMERS IN THE COUNTRY. HE IS LOVING THE FREEDOM THAT A JAM BAND HAS AFTER ALL THOSE TIGHT SONG SESSIONS.
