Textile Exchange report highlights concerns with recent increase in adoption of genetically modified (GM) cotton in Africa

Firstly why is this a discussion? Because the demand for organic and preferred cotton is growing; ensuring support for non-GM sustainable alternatives will give farmers a choice and protect their ability to have market access.

According to a new Textile Exchange Pan-Africa Sourcing Working Group white paper,

“Cotton in Africa: Sustainability at a Crossroads,”

an increasing number of countries in…

Une grande Dame est partie …Mireille Pame-Balin

image

Paris 1999, je viens de lire Diop, Rodney, Cesaire, Mongo Beti, Gandhi, Dubois…Mais aussi Maryse Condé, Jamaica Kincaid et bien d'autres.

Je suis dans l'effervescence juvénile de ceux qui découvrent avec stupéfaction cette histoire coloniale francophone qu'on nous cache en Afrique comme en Europe d'ailleurs et…Une conférence a lieu pour parler de ce projet chiracquien sur le Musée “des arts premiers” (devenu Musée du Quai Branly suite aux nombreuses manifestations). Ne comprenant pas le sujet de la mésentente entre les militants afros et l'ancien président français, je décide de m'y rendre.

Cet échange a lieu au cinéma Images d'Ailleurs (qui n’existe plus hélàs), non loin de la Sorbonne Nouvelle au métro Censier-Daubenton.

Je fais alors connaissance avec cette éloquente journaliste/enseignante/comédienne/auteure/activiste madame Mireille Pame-Balin.

Cette femme de culture est une oratrice hors pair, toujours avec un élégant chapeau tissé dans de jolies étoffes, un noir à lévre et un verbe chirurgicalement précis. Dame Pame-Balin partagera l'histoire de son enfance en Centrafrique (qu’elle quittera en 1967 pour ne plus jamais y retourner), le traitement réservé aux “indigènes” sur leurs propres terres, le mépris du colon, l’injustice du code de l’indigénat (ancêtre de l’actuel Code de l’Immigration…). 

Elle, la Martiniquaise qui a grandit dans une Afrique récemment “libérée”…Elle qui passa sa vie à sillonner notre continent-mère avec son époux feu Maître Balin!

Ce matin, il a fallu lui dire au Revoir. Celle qui a pris la décision de rejoindre “Abulikan” pour son ultimate voyage, elle qui a contribué à mon instruction politique…

C'était la première fois que je rencontrais une activiste francophone afrodescendante et babyboomeuse.

Toutes mes pensées pour Shaka votre fils et mon ami de longue date

Veuillez SVP Chère Dame,  Rejoindre en Puissance nos Ancêtres !

This is Robert Hakiza, an agricultural engineer, Congolese refugee & founder of a nonprofit called YARID. In 2008, he started a soccer tournament to unite refugees from different ethnic groups in Uganda. 

“We wanted to try to create the same situation as before, as it used to be before the war” — people playing together regardless of their identities, he says. 

Today, his nonprofit does so much more. Read his full story: http://n.pr/2zSqQAN
