African Stories: Once Upon a Chameleon

Sanctuary

With his bestseller, Between the World and Me, Ta-Nehisi Coates established himself as a unique voice in his generation of American authors; a brilliant writer and thinker in the tradition of James Baldwin. In his keenly anticipated new book, The Message, he explores the urgent question of how our stories - our reporting, imaginative narratives and mythmaking - both expose and distort our realities. Travelling to three resonant sites of conflict, he illuminates how the stories we tell - as well as the ones we don't - work to shape us. The first of the book's three main parts finds Coates on his inaugural trip to Africa - a journey to Dakar, where he finds himself in two places at once: a modern city in Senegal and the ghost-haunted country of his imagination. He then takes readers along with him to Columbia, South Carolina, where he reports on the banning of his own work and the deep roots of a false and fiercely protected American mythology - visibly on display in this capital of the confederacy, with statues of segregationists still looming over its public squares. Finally in Palestine, Coates sees with devastating clarity the tragedy that grows in the clash between the stories we tell and reality on the ground. Written at a dramatic moment in American and global life, this work from one of the country's most important writers is about the urgent need to untangle ourselves from the destructive myths that shape our world - and our own souls - and embrace the liberating power of even the most difficult truths.

The Message

The first monograph on the decorative, Afrofuturist tableaux of Pamela Phatsimo SunstrumThis debut monograph on Botswana-born, Johannesburg- and Toronto-based artist Pamela Phatsimo Sunstrum (born 1980) accompanies a mid-career survey at the Contemporary Arts Center, Cincinnati (CAC). Presenting the largest display of works by the artist to date, the exhibition conjures a transformative space that evokes the impression of traveling through a tunnel. Visual nods to elements of Tswana home-adornment traditions, as well as sand embankments along the perimeter of the gallery where the walls meet the floor, heighten this sense of passage and location. In addition to documenting these portions of the exhibition, the book also presents a new site-specific wall drawing created in response to Zaha Hadid’s architecture. The book includes an interview with Sunstrum by Elvira Dyangani Ose, Director of The Showroom, and valuable texts from Bessie Head, who, though born in South Africa, is considered one of Botswana’s most influential writers, and Raphaela Platow, Director at the CAC.

Animal Lives

"Fongoli chimpanzees are unique for many reasons. Their female hunters are the only apes that regularly hunt with tools (tiny bush babies with wooden spears). Unlike most other chimps, these apes fear neither water nor fire, using shallow pools to cool off in the Senegalese heat. More than ninety percent of their home range burns annually-the result of human hunting or clearing for gold mining-and these apes have learned to predict the movement of such fires and to avoid them. The study of Fongoli chimps is also unique; while most primate research occurs in isolated reserves, Fongoli chimpanzees live alongside humans. As primatologist and anthropologist Jill Pruetz reports, this shared habitat creates both challenges and opportunities. The issues faced by Fongoli chimpanzees-particularly food scarcity and environmental degradation-are also issues faced by people living alongside them. This connection is one reason Pruetz, who has studied Fongoli apes for over two decades, created the non-profit Neighbor Ape in 2008 to help provide for the welfare of humans and their shared animal community. It is also why Pruetz decided to write this book, which is the first to offer readers a view of these chimps' lives and to explain specific conservation efforts needed to help them. Incorporating stories from her field work, including a compelling rescue mission of a young chimp from hunters, this book will be fascinating to anyone interested in animals and conservation"--

How to Give People and Nature the Space to Thrive

Land Smart

The Zambezi is the fourth-longest river in Africa, and one of the continent's principal arteries of movement, migration, conquest and commerce. In this book, historian Malyn Newitt quotes rarely used Portuguese sources that throw vivid light on the culture of the river peoples and their relations with the Portuguese creole society of the prazos. Hitherto unused manuscript material illustrates Portuguese and British colonial rule over the people of the long-lived Lunda kingdoms, and the Lozi of the Barotse Floodplain. The Zambezi became a war zone during the 'Scramble for Africa', the struggle for independence and the civil wars that followed the departure of colonial powers. Recent history has also seen the river's wild nature tamed by the introduction of steamers and the building of bridges and dams. These developments have changed the character of the waterway, and impacted--often drastically--the ecological systems of the valley and those settled along its course. The Zambezi traces the history of the communities that have lived along this great river; their relationship with the states formed on the high veldt; and the ways they have adapted to the vagaries of the Zambezi itself, with its annual floods, turbulent rapids and dramatic gorges.
