The People Shall Govern!
Author: Antawan I. Byrd
Publisher: Yale University Press
ISBN: 0300254342
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 161
Book Description
A revelatory and informative presentation of the anti-apartheid posters created by Medu Art Ensemble Formed in the late 1970s, Medu Art Ensemble forcefully articulated a call to end the apartheid system’s racial segregation and violent injustice through posters that combined revolutionary imagery with bold slogans. Advocating for decolonization and majority (nonwhite) rule in South Africa and neighboring countries, Medu members were persecuted by the South African Defense Force and operated in exile across the border in Botswana. The People Shall Govern! features nearly all the surviving posters that Medu created between 1979 and 1985. These objects are exceedingly rare, as they were originally smuggled into South Africa and mounted in public places, where they were regularly confiscated or torn down on sight. Offering new insight into the conceptual framework of Medu’s working practice and featuring a beautiful silkscreened cover, this volume examines the continuing relevance and impact of its poster production.

A Sort of Homecoming

Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 153268357X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 289
Book Description
We live in a culture of collective fear over climate change and mass migration, and we experience increasing intense personal anxiety and despair. How might the Bible's themes of homecoming and homemaking address our physical, emotional, and spiritual displacement? This collection of essays honors the academic and community work of Brian J. Walsh upon his retirement as Campus Minister at the University of Toronto Christian Reformed Campus Ministry. The collection is a stunning mosaic at once academic and personal--representing the many elements of Brian's life as pastor, theologian, professor, farmer, mentor, and friend. In an age when "home" feels physically and spiritually elusive for so many, this volume reawakens our imaginations to the foundational biblical themes of homecoming and homemaking. Academic, pastoral, personal, and timely, this volume honors Brian's career and equips readers to engage the fear and anxiety of our age with the hope of the gospel.

The Purple Psalmody
Author: Arcadio Morada, Jr.
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1465379681
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 330
Book Description
They call him Mr. Purple, and this is his Psalmody. The Purple Psalmody is a collection of musical settings of the psalms for Sundays, solemnities, feasts, and memorials of the Catholic Church. It began with The Queen Stands, a song for the Solemnity of the Assumption, and ended up with Highest Honor of our Race, for the Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe. Between the two Marian songs are more than a hundred other musical settings composed sporadically within a span of almost three decades. These songs have been used in the author’s music ministry at several Catholic schools and parishes both in the Philippines (where he came from) and the United States (where he now resides). Varied in styles and moods, these musical settings are the author’s personal expression of faith in, and love for, Jesus through Mary. They are his personal prayer to God. But they can be yours, too. Come sing—and pray twice, as St. Augustine said in effect—with Mr. Purple. Come sing The Purple Psalmody.

Decolonizing Development
Author: Jennifer Keahey
Publisher: Policy Press
ISBN: 1529224373
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 192
Book Description
Post-Soviet Latvia and post-apartheid South Africa are far apart geographically and yet have endured a similar history of colonial and authoritarian rule before transitioning to democracy at the end of the 20th century. This book examines these two nations in an unusual comparative study of post-authoritarian efforts to decolonize production and trade. The book combines an analysis of political economy and ecocultural heritage to unpack alternative trade formations. It also connects world systems thinking with Indigenous knowledge to articulate a decolonial theory of development and change over the longue durée. Conclusions and insights drawn are timely and important for a planet confronted by crises such as authoritarianism, laissez-faire capitalism, climate change and the COVID-19 pandemic.
