Identification with music operates on many psychological and cultural levels from childhood to old age, and is reinforced and expressed most cogently in their use of song during cotton farming. Cotton farming is a relatively recent chapter in Sukuma history, a result of (and creative response to) British colonial government requirements between the two world wars. A new farming class emerged, which drew on prior musical labor fraternities such as medicinal societies, hunting societies, porters, and military organizations for their personnel, musical repertory, and dance paraphernalia. The Sukuma made the imposition of long-distance migrant labor and cotton cropping their own by making these labors musical. The author discusses how Sukuma farmers developed musical farming from these prior musical labor practices, and provides several examples of this transformation.

Ijele: Art eJournal of the African World (2002) ISSN: 1525-447X DRESS CODES AND PRESTIGE STAFFS: CONSTRUCTING POLITICAL AUTHORITY WITH STAFFS IN TANZANIA Fadhili Mshana Staffs come in different materials and forms and most examples in Africa are made of wood and are most commonly used for walking, though some staffs serve as ritual items and as symbols of authority. For example, chiefs, diviners, and linguists own staffs connected with their obligations. This is not to say that such types of staffs are used on a daily basis. Rather, these items are employed during special events and for performing specific tasks. These include chiefs who display them to legitimize their title, and to represent their realm and power. Healers and diviners also utilize staffs in their activities, as do linguists, orators, and leaders of associations (fig.1). To cite an example, in Ghana, major Ashanti chiefs have an okyeame or public spokesman who holds his staff as he speaks to underscore his authority and message. While the woodcarver was the main creator of staffs, the chief or title-holder could ask other artisans like a smith to work with the carver. Indeed, a combined effort perhaps depended on the materials that a staff demanded. If, for instance, metal such as iron and copper was needed, then specialists in this field of metallurgy were called upon to contribute their expertise. In another example, a bead-worker may be involved together with a woodcarver in the creation process if a staff was to be decorated with beads. Considering the crucial functions of staffs, it would seem that after the creation process is completed, other actions may be taken upon the objects. For example, a practitioner would be given the task of manipulating a staff with view to consecrate it, thereafter the object is given to the title person.

The importance of ongoing long-term vision and photographic collaboration is an issue close to his heart. One of the country's leading social-documentary photographers with a firm belief in the collaborative strength of South African photographers, Weinberg helped establish the Afrapix photographers collective in the eighties which put South African images into the mainstream international media network. His work has appeared in numerous photographic books and anthologies. Much of it concerns the environment and the local communities. Weinberg has just completed a book titled " Once We Were Warriors " exploring indigenous people in Africa and their relationship to land, conservation, and the survival of their cultures. He is currently working on a book about Durban, a portrait of a city. Books: Contributor to "The Cordoned Heart" with Omar Badsha and Francis Wilson, Gallery Press, Cape Town, 1986

Kevin Brand and Louise Linder Invitation to the show at the AVA CAPE TOWN Kevin Brand, Louise Linder and John Murray at the AVA In the Main Gallery, Kevin Brand is showing a group of remarkable small bronzes entitled 'Late Afternoon'. The body of work has been taken from his sketchbooks of the last 10 years and represents ideas on a variety of themes, many of which have been realised in other media and on other scales as well as some which haven't made it there yet. Brand has been the recipient of various awards, has exhibited nationally and internationally and his work is included in several important collections Louise Linder, who has also exhibited widely and is also well represented in public collections, is showing a group of oil paintings entitled 'Encounters'. The works deal with personal history and family memories and are based on small black and white photographs from her childhood in Mozambique. Upstairs on the ArtsStrip, recent Stellenbosch graduate John Murray shows his mixed media works. He explores themes including violence, sex, religion and consumerism in these works.

16. Traditional Bukakhwae Cultural knowledge falls into the category of indigenous knowledge and many people know how In 1972 Keitiretse kwere was born in the middle of a breading http://www.khwai.org/culture.html

Traditional Babukakhwae I Sebukakhwae I Learn Sebukakhwae Indigenous Knowledge I How the Culture is Changing Traditional Bukakhwae The naming of the people of Khwai and the greater ethnic group they belong to is problematic. The most familiar name is probably Bushmen or Bushpeople but some consider this to be an insult. The Setswana name is Basarwa and anthropologists have named these people San. When I asked people in Khwai what they wanted to be called most people didn't care. They referred to themselves by bushman and Basarwa and sometimes San. I think this partly shows how silly labeling is but it's still needed so I'll use the legal term, Basarwa. The Basarwa were the first inhabitants of Southern Africa. Traditionally they made a living through hunting and gathering. Their lifestyle is often called nomadic but that is a misnomer. Basarwa did not move aimlessly like a nomad does but instead moved from location to location according to the seasons and the food resources available in each place. Food and water resources were protected form over-exploitation through elaborate social customs about which groups of people could use which regions and how often people should hunt. The hunting and gathering lifestyle required an intimate knowledge of their natural surroundings. Many Basarwa may never have attended school but they were still highly educated by a different set of standards. The Babukakhwae are a section of the Basarwa also known as "river bushmen." They are typically taller than other Basarwa and their language and culture varies greatly from other Basarwa groups in the Kalahari and even just 30 Km away in Mababe village.

BIBLIOGRAPHY The Physical Environment: The peoples that are discussed in this study live in the West African country named Burkina Faso. (Map of Burkina Faso) Burkina Faso is a landlocked country of about 274,200 square kilometers (about the size of the State of Colorado) just south of the great bend of the Niger River and 500 kilometers from the Bight of Benin. To the south along the coast are Ivory Coast, Ghana, Togo, and Benin (Dahomey). To the north and northwest lies Mali, and the eastern border is with Niger. Rainfall amounts vary considerably from year to year, and since the late 1950's there has been a steady decrease in averages. o C. (105 o F.), and it is not much cooler at night. The landscape is desolate, with grey or red dust and dust-covered vegetation to the horizon. Families retreat to the shade of the family dwellings, and livestock huddle in the sparse shade of the few scorched trees. Dust devils dance across the fields, and as the water level of wells drops, women must walk miles for a muddy bucketful. With the first heavy and frequent rains in June, the landscape is transformed, as roads become lined with dense green walls of millet and sorghum stalks seeming to submerge villages in a sea of vegetation.
