Extractions: Anthropology 130A: Peoples and Cultures of Africa mmoritz@ucsc.edu Tuesday and Thursday 5:00 PM ñ 8:45 PM Social Science II, room 159 Session 2: July 26 ñ August 27 Course description When Africa is in the news, it is generally in reports of serious crises: ethnic conflict in Rwanda, civil war in Sudan, religious conflict in Nigeria; poverty and famine in Ethiopia; environmental degradation and poverty in the Sahel; corruption in Cameroon; and AIDS in Botswana. Unfortunately, most news stories do not increase our understanding of why Africa faces such crises. Journalists and academics go back and forth between optimism and despair about its future. The goal of this course is to come to an anthropological understanding of the political, economic, historical, and cultural factors shaping the crises that many Africans currently face, while avoiding sweeping generalizations that obscure our understanding. Since the beginning of the 20 th COURSE REQUIREMENTS AND GRADING Students are expected to attend class, to complete the reading assignments before the class for which they are assigned, and to participate in class by asking questions and actively engaging and contributing to class discussions. Attendance, preparation for and participation in class will count for 20% of the grade. There will be take-home assignments, which count for 50% of the grade, and a take-home final exam, which counts for 30% of the grade.

Extractions: Country Info Togo Introduction Togo General Data Togo Maps Togo Culture ... Togo Time and Date Togo People Back to Top The population of Togo comprises about 30 ethnic groups, many of whom are immigrants from other parts of western Africa. The groups indigenous to Togo live in the north and southwest. The northern groups include the following Gur-speaking Voltaic peoples: the Gurma; the Natemba, Dye, Bu-Bankam, Bu-Kombong, and Konkomba; the Tamberma; the Basari; the Moba; the Naudemba (Losso); the Kabre and Logba; and the Namba (Lamba); a small number of West Atlantic-speaking Fulani; and the Kebu (Akebu). In the southwest the indigenous Kwa peoples also belonging to the central Togo group are the Akposo, the Adele, and the Ahlo. The immigrants came from east, west, and north. The Ewe, who emigrated from Nigeria between the 14th and 16th century, form the major ethnic group. There are also some scattered Yoruba, mainly Ana. Groups who emigrated from present-day Ghana and Côte d'Ivoire since the 17th century include the Ane (or Mina), the Ga-Adangme, the Kpelle and the Anyana, the Chakossi, and the Dagomba. The northern groups of the Tem (Kotokoli and Temba), Gurma, and Mossi came from the north, mainly from areas in Burkina Faso. Most of the southern peoples use the Ewe or Mina languages, which are closely related and spoken in commercial sectors throughout Togo. French, the official language, is used in administration and documentation. The public primary schools combine French with Ewe or Kabye as languages of instruction, depending on the region. English is spoken in neighboring Ghana and is taught in Togolese secondary schools. As a result, many Togolese, especially in the south and along the Ghana border, speak some English.

Extractions: In the spring of 1998, when clouds of dust descended on the western United States from Washington to Texas, weather experts were mystified. They could not figure out where all the pollution extensive enough and heavy enough to settle like a blanket over the countryside was coming from. Eventually, they concluded it must have originated in China. A three-day dust storm, responsible for wreaking death and destruction in that country's interior, seemed to have been pushed east by tradewinds all the way across the Pacific. This was by no means the first time that soil had taken a trans-oceanic journey. Astronauts circling the Earth in 1994 watched in amazement as plumes of reddish-brown dust arose out of North Africa heading straight for Florida and the Caribbean. Hundreds of kilometres wide and thousands of kilometres long, this dust represented but a small proportion of the billion tonnes of African dust that can blow across the Atlantic yearly.

Extractions: [January 18, 2004 News] Since the publishing of the Japanese-language version of the "War Over Iraq: Sadam's Tyranny and America's Mission" , and especially after the American occupation of Bagdad, I have been forced to accept an abrupt change of my everyday lifestyle because of the difficulties of organizing a community support project in Iraq. Sometime during 2004, we will be in a position to deploy groundstations for satellite communication for Samawa, and we will certainly do everything possible to bring the children and youth of Japan, Iraq's Samawa and Holland together in direct three-way digital communication. God knows what this will bring about for all the participants, but we are determined to give it a serious try.
