People Profile The Tswa People Religion: Christianity, Traditional Animism Population: 1,060,000 (1996 estimate) Status: 50% Professed Christianity; 20-25% Evangelical Location: The greatest concentration of Tswa people is in the southern Mozambiquan province of Inhambane. Smaller concentrations live in portions of the provinces of Gaza, Maputo, Manica and Sofala. The Tswa people also live in eastern portions of the Republic of South Africa, and eastern and southern Zimbabwe. International borders were established long after the arrival of these people in this area of Africa. There are basically no significant concentrations of Tswa people living in Mozambique north of the Zambezi River, which more or less divides the country in two. The capital city of Maputo is now home to quite a few Tswa people as well, despite the major people group of the city being people of the Ronga group. Identity: The name of this people in their language is Vatswa. The singular form is Mutswa. They are often referred to, especially by outsiders, as Tswa, following the patterns of English grammar. The Tswa people are part of a larger language/people group called the Tsonga (Vatsonga). The Tsonga encompass three sub-groups: the Ronga, Tswa and Tsonga (Shangaan). These three groups are very similar in practically every respect. They originated from the same indigenous Bantu peoples who came down from the north to inhabit much of what is now called southern Mozambique and portions of several bordering countries.

A Portuguese colony from 1752 until 1975, Mozambique's culture is now a blend of both indigenous and Portuguese traditions, revealed through the country's unique architecture, literature, poetry, and music. Artwork produced in Mozambique is celebrated as some of the finest on the continent, including the renowned wood sculptures and masks of the Makonde people and the country's famously large and colorful murals. Portuguese is the official language of Mozambique, although numerous local languages are spoken as well. The vast majority of Mozambicans belong to ethnically diverse indigenous groups such as the Makua, the Makonde, the Sena, the Chokwe, the Manyika, and the Shanagaan. A small number of Portuguese, other European, and Asian residents make up the expatriate population. About half of the Mozambican population practices traditional indigenous religions, while the remaining half practice either Islam or Christianity.

To these people Africa was, and will continue to be a continual theme in their culture and even their perceptions of themselves. It was the underlying commonality of their Africanness which pulled African Americans one of the most turbulent times of their history, the time of slavery. It is this same underlying theme of Africanness which continues to consolidate the African Americans and which allows them to resist total assimilation into white culture. Some suggests that the creation of Africa-centered schools would be a positive factor in the welfare of contemporary Black Americans. While the ideology and culture of Africa is something which should continue to be stressed into our future, however, the segregation of black from white in the form of Africa-centered schools would only be a regress into our past.

Prayer Profile The Makua of Madagascar Madagascar , the largest island in the Indian Ocean, is located off the southeastern coast of Africa. Its more than 14 million people are composed of many diverse ethnic groups. Uninhabited until 2,500 years ago, it was first populated by Malays and Indonesians. In the last thousand years, groups of African and Arab ancestry have claimed the island as home. In the 1500's, Europeans were the last to appear. Despite its proximity to Africa, the main inhabitants of the island (the Malagasy) do not consider themselves African, but related to Indonesians. The 158,600 Makua are an African tribal people who were originally from northern Mozambique . Why they are in Madagascar is not clear, but it appears that at one time a neighboring tribe, the Makonde, captured and sold many of them to Arab traders as slaves. In turn, the Arabs took the captives to Madagascar, where eventually they became free residents. The Makua speak a language that is part of the Niger-Congo language family. What are their lives like?
