Der #Dschihad breitet sich in #Afrika aus, während der #Westen die Augen verschliesst

#Dschihadisten morden, vergewaltigen, foltern, entführen, versklaven und verbrennen Menschen bei lebendigem Leib – in ganz Afrika und jetzt auch in #Syrien . Kürzlich auf X veröffentlichte Videos zeigen, dass syrische #Islamisten mit #Alawiten dasselbe tun wie die #Hamas mit #Juden , die in der Nähe von Gaza leben. Christen, Drusen und Jesiden in Syrien – wie auch ihre nicht-muslimischen oder nicht-arabischen Geschwister in Afrika – fürchten, die Nächsten zu sein.

Amadou Balaké – Super Bar Konon Mousso

amf.didiermary.fr/super-bar-ko

Although the video says it was recorded in Lagos in 1978, the reality, as Discogs states and as many musicians and bands did at that time, is that Amadou Balaké (or Ballaké) from Burkina Faso gathered musicians in Abidjan, Ivory Coast. This track is also available on “The Original Sound of Burkina Faso” compilation. …

ELN: A Look Towards Africa

In Africa, tectonic movements of liberation and decolonization are again being felt. In the African Sahel, Burkina Faso, Mali, Niger, Chad and Senegal have expelled France permanently. On the continent, the panAfricanist agenda of the 1960s is being revived. In November 2024, the historicConference in Solidarity with the Peoples of the Sahelwas held in Niger, organized by the Pan African Secretariat (PAT) and the Organization of the Peoples of West Africa (WAPO), under the slogan: “For antiimperialist unity, peace and friendship among peoples.” PAT and WAPO are two great engines driving the panAfrican liberation project. It is placed on the agenda in the revolutionary and national liberation movements of the world, calling us to a dialogue and coordination with this African libertarian reality. Malcolm X, on his trip to Africa (1964) having renounced the Nation of Islam, which preached black nationalism, discovered affinities and identities with revolutionary leaders, some of whom were not black, such as Ahmed Ben Bella of Algeria and Gamal Abdel Nasser of Egypt. By finding deeper identities with African revolutionary leaders, and not just with Black Africa, he further sharpened contradictions with the Nation of Islam leadership, especially Elijah Muhammed. Then Malcolm X would profess his identity and admiration for revolutionary leaders of Our America, such as Fidel Castro and Ché Guevara, questioning whether the strategic thing wasbeing blackorbeing revolutionary.” This dilemma persists today for the AfroColombian movement, a powerful force for emancipation and transformation in Colombia, which has managed to significantly influence the nation’s political agenda. Certainly, the project of emancipation in America is inconceivable and becomes unviable without black and indigenous liberation. That is why we should turn our gaze to Africa. However, on France’s two visits to Africa, he failed to engage in dialogue with the ongoing African liberation organizations and processes. In Ghana he met with the president who openly promotes the conspiracy against the countries of the African Sahel. He also appeared at a press conference with an Ashanti chieftain, notorious in Ghana for his corruption and starring in politics. Socialist revolutionaries in Ghana watched with sadness that a black leader from Latin America, from a leftwing party, showed no affinity with the African left. Black identity and the struggle against structural racism is and has been a key point in the unity building of the African American diaspora. It has been a 500-year struggle, fraught with unimaginable sacrifice and suffering. Black identity against the systemic racism of the white and mixed world is legitimate and necessary. The difficulty lies in the fact that black identity is not the epicenter of the liberation project in Africa, but the decolonization, the confrontation with imperialism and the revolutionary transformation of its societies.Africa is not a monolithic continent; there are proimperialists and antiimperialists, as well as left and right; also exploitative bourgeois and exploited workers. These factors are decisive in the African liberation struggle. At COP 16, held in November 2024 in Cali, there was a clear misunderstanding between the AfroColombian movement and the delegates from African countries, precisely for that reason: black identity is not decisive in the African struggle, as it is taken in the struggles of our America. Here emerges the debate and tensions that have existed between identity struggles and revolutionary struggles, where the latter focus on class identity, between exploited versus exploiter. The unity of class and the unity of identity need not quarrel, for there are multiple points of encounter. The meeting of the two in a strategic project of emancipation is vital to achieve the revolutionary transformation we desire. The black and the Indian in the Petro government are interesting topics for a current debate. Comandante Antonio García Source: ELN Voces

Amadou Balaké – Taximan (n’est pas gentil)

amf.didiermary.fr/amadou-balak

The Golden Voice from Burkina Faso in a track that has become a “classic”: Taximan (n’est pas gentil).

Like the previous post (Maitre Gazonga), most of this music was recorded in Abidjan during the 80s, where so many musicians from various countries met and worked together, creating a giant & rich melting pot of music […]

"Um Gold im Wert von 245 Millionen Dollar zu transportieren, bräuchte man mindestens zwei Hubschrauber. Das wissen wir, weil genau so viele Hubschrauber Regierungssoldaten in Mali im Jänner nutzten, um etwa drei Tonnen Gold aus der Mine Loulo-Gounkoto zu beschlagnahmen, die dem kanadischen Unternehmen Barrick Gold gehört. Die Regierung behauptet, Barrick schulde ihr Hunderte von Millionen Dollar an unbezahlten Steuern."

En mars 1986, le président du #BurkinaFaso, qui cachait ses #livres dans des cantines pour ne pas se dévoiler 'Une #bibliothèque, c’est dangereux, ça trahit.
