During the golden century the wool industry enjoyed in Australia, great swathes of land across the Outback were enclosed in what became colloquially known as 'sheep stations'.There were varying degrees of success. Some squatting ventures failed miserably in the first generation whilst there are more than a few sheep stations still in the family five and six generations after they were formed and continuing to be relevant in the twenty first century. It was sometimes a matter of luck; of being in the right place when seasonal and commercial conditions were favourable to producing numbers of surplus stock for sale or having many bales of Merino fleeces grown for export to the woollen mills in Yorkshire.Drought, floods, wild fluctuations in sheep and wool prices all contrived to bring pastoralists undone if not for their management skill and sheep breeding expertise. There have been inevitable changes to those stations as they were developed from the natural state. Fences, yards, woolsheds and homesteads were erected, each proclaiming individual ownership. The original mix of fauna and flora has also inevitably changed, but the fact that sheep stations exist continue to remind us of their place in the history of this country. They were essential in determining our commercial, political and cultural independence.One such sheep station was Yanga.

Yanga, a young African prince, was preparing to rule his Senegambian kingdom when Portuguese slavers captured and condemned him to a life of toil and torture in colonial Mexico. But Yanga never gave up, leading an uprising of self-liberated Africans and establishing the first free territory in the Americas. Based on a true story, this action-packed work of historical fiction recalls Yanga's incredible journey from warrior prince to enslaved plantation worker to freedom fighter. Meet Mexico's Greatest African Hero, the man brought the Spanish Imperial forces to its knees.

This book is about the life of Yanga, an important figure in Mexico and the African diaspora in the Americas. It tells the story of how Yanga reinvented himself on a new continent and fought for his freedom and his people, founding in the early 17th century the first town free of slavery in the Americas officialy recognized by the King of Spain. The author hopes that Yanga's example will encourage children and young people to develop resilience and show them that victories can be achieved with conviction, constancy, and strategies. The book aims to promote a love for reading and knowledge of the past, while respecting cultural differences, with easy-to-understand maps and timelines, reflection questions, a reader comprehension questionnaire, and a glossary. The language is simple and written in the present tense to help readers empathize with Yanga's anti-slavery struggle and feel like they are experiencing it in the moment. Arturo Martinez, a native of the state where Yanga founded his town, provides vivid and accurate artwork that complements the book. Through his cultural contribution, which demonstrates his first-hand knowledge of the people whose story is narrated in this book, the reader gains a deeper understanding of the cultural context.

"From its modest beginnings in the 1860s, Dar es Salaam has grown to become one of Africa's most important urban centres. A major political, economic and cultural hub, the city has also acted as a crucible of local social and cultural innovation, exerting a powerful influence on wider Tanzanian society. Reflecting important contemporary socio-economic trends of urban Africa, it has recently attracted the attention of a diverse range of scholars from several disciplines. This collection draws on the best of this scholarship." --Book Jacket.

The Encyclopedia of African Cultural Heritage in North America provides an accessible ready reference on the retention and continuity of African culture within the United States. Our conceptual framework holds, first, that culture is a form of self-knowledge and knowledge about self in the world as transmitted from one person to another. Second, that African people continuously create their own cultural history as they move through time and space. Third, that African descended people living outside of Africa are also contributors to and participate in the creation of African cultural history. Entries focus on illuminating Africanisms (cultural retentions traceable to an African origin) and cultural continuities (ongoing practices and processes through which African culture continues to be created and formed). Thus, the focus is more culturally specific and less concerned with the broader transatlantic demographic, political and geographic issues that are the focus of similar recent reference works. We also focus less on biographies of individuals and political and economic ties and more on processes and manifestations of African cultural heritage and continuity. FEATURES: A two-volume A-to-Z work, available in a choice of print or electronic formats 350 signed entries, each concluding with Cross-references and Further Readings 150 figures and photos Front matter consisting of an Introduction and a Reader’s Guide organizing entries thematically to more easily guide users to related entries Signed articles concluding with cross-references
