Extractions: It seems that we hear a lot about the Jewish communities in North American and Europe, but we are less familiar with the Jewish Communities of Africa, the Middle East, Caucusus, Central Asia, India and China. These are some of the oldest Jewish communities in the world so they deserve attention. Blady has compiled a history and study of these communities. First Blady offers some general information on the country and then focuses on the Jewish community in that country. The communities Blady focuses on are Yemen, Iran, Crimea, Kurdistan, Georgia, Afghanistan, Daghestan, Uzbekistan, India, China, Morocco, LIbya, Tunisia and Ethiopia.

Extractions: In the Americas and Australia it is clear that there were long established civilisations that were overcome by European colonisation. It is in these countries that legal precedents, including treaty systems, were established between the colonisers and the first peoples. However, in other parts of the world, the colonisation was internal. In Africa, Asia and the Arctic, it was frequently related to the expansion of agricultural peoples and their cultural-linguistic systems which engulfed the planet. Some indigenous peoples also adopted agriculture or horticulture, but the defining issue has been that certain dominant agricultural peoples came to control the state and its institutions, such as the police, schools, health care and bodies like parliaments. Typically, indigenous peoples have been excluded from the institutions of the state, marginalised within their own countries. The two major expansions of dominance in Africa have included the migration of Bantu speaking agro-pastoralists across Central, Eastern and Southern Africa and the expansion of Arab influence and language across North Africa.

Extractions: Sahara , which in Arabic simply means "The Desert." Around 750 AD, under the influence of Islamic peoples, northern and western Africans began to use the camel to transport goods across this forbidding terrain. Camels do several things exceptionally well: they can carry unbelievably heavy loads for impossibly long distances and they can keep their footing on sandy terrain. It was as if someone had invented sand ships and its effect on western African culture was just as profound as if they were sand ships. The most important developments occurred in the Sahel area just south of the Sahara; the Sahel provided southern terminal points for the goods being shipped across the Sahara. The Sahel is a dry, hot area with fertile areas and grasslands; all of the major north African kingdoms grew up in this area: Ghana, Mali, Songhay, and Kanem-Bornu: the Sahelian kingdoms

Afropop Worldwide many berber musicians and people resent the while the music of North africa s original inhabitants have mostly ignored beautiful indigenous berber music, and http://www.afropop.org/multi/feature/ID/112/Berber Rising!
Extractions: Berber Politics and World Music Afropop Worldwide's Berber Rising program is certainly not the first time Berber music has been featured on our show. But it is by far our most extensive look at this often overlooked vein of North African music. Understandably, many Berber musicians and people resent the fact that so much effort has gone into promoting Afro-Arabic genres like rai and to a lesser extent shaabi internationally, while the music of North Africa's original inhabitants is relatively unsupported, and hence less known in world music circles. The subject is complex. In the 1970s, Berber singer Idir made one of the first North African hits in Europe, but Berber music has not kept pace since. On the one hand, much of the most interesting Berber music is not pop, but rather village and urban folk music. The major forces behind promoting rai have a dance pop-oriented mindset, and this, they argue, is the reason they have mostly ignored beautiful indigenous Berber music, and even more artistic fusions like that of exiled Algerian singer/songwriters Iness Mezel and Akli D.. The argument overlooks some great Berber-related dance pop by artists like Takfarinas, Tayfa and German-based Moroccan fusion artist Houssaine Kili, but more on that later.
BBC NEWS | Africa | Q&A: The Berbers They dominated North africa until it was conquered by Arabs in the 7th century. Canaries The indigenous people were berber. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/3509799.stm
Extractions: Algeria's Berbers revere slain singer Matoub Lounes For centuries Berbers have fought to prevent their language and culture from being swamped by Arabs. Most numerous in Morocco, they are scattered across nine countries. Their voice has been most loudly heard, amidst outbreaks of violence, in Algeria. Q: Who are they? The Berbers are a non-Semitic people who since prehistoric times inhabited the Mediterranean coastline from Egypt to the Atlantic. They dominated North Africa until it was conquered by Arabs in the 7th century. Ethnically, a majority of Moroccans and Algerians are Arabicised Berbers. Today it is more language and culture that set Berbers apart. Berber speakers account for some 50% of Moroccans and 30% of Algerians. Q: Where does the name come from? One theory derives 'Berber' from Barbaros, ancient Greek for 'Outsiders'. Berbers call themselves 'Imazighen' (Free), plural of 'Amazigh'. They call the Maghreb 'Tamazgha', or Land of the Imazighen.

The Moors Moslem people of mixed Arab and berber descent. This first applied officially to the indigenous people of a Roman province in North africa called Mauretania http://herso.freeservers.com/moors.html
Extractions: The Moors are not a specific race of people. The word has never been clearly defined and remains ambiguous and confusing. This term has been broadly used to denote various people in North Africa, people who came from Morocco or simply to describe Muslims in general. Christians in the 13th century also referred to the Moors as "Moriscos" and "Mudejares" The word MOORS may have evolved from the Greek 'Mauros' which means 'dark'. The Greeks were in Spain around 500 BC, 300 years before the Romans . The Romans probably pinched it from the Greeks, complete with its original connotation of 'dark'. This might explain why the Latin 'Maurus' translates literally into 'Moors', with no further definition. Borrowing directly from the Greek meaning, this would have been good enough for the Romans to describe the 'dark' skinned people of North Africa. This is all conjecture of course, but its close enough for me.

It is a mistake to regard Berbers as an excluded minority, however. Berbers can be found in the highest levels of Algerian military, political, business and intellectual circles. hadiths (traditions) were fabricated which described the conversion of the Berbers by the Prophet Muhammad himself well before the Arab conquest. The Moroccan Bargawatiyya movement translated the Koran into Berber in the 10th century, but Sunni Muslim reformists destroyed their kingdom and burnt the offensive Berber Koran.
