How does a peoples' music reflect their history, their occupations, cultural beliefs and values? These are the core questions that this book addresses in relation to the Aawambo people of Namibia. The author, herself born and bred in Namibia, brings to the fore the nuanced views of different people, describing their personal musical experiences -- past as well as present. This is the first time that the music and stories of contemporary Namibian musicians is shared alongside those of the elderly. Similarly, it is the first time that some of the traditional Aawambo dances are analysed and described, abundantly illustrated with colourful photographs and several songs. Based on years of personal research, this book will appeal to research scholars, students and other interested readers alike, since its style is accessible but detailed, personal yet objective. Recommended for all those interested in culture, anthropology, the arts, and Namibian studies.

Dit lespakket over Namibië en de waterproblematiek in dit land is uitgewerkt voor de tweede en derde graad van het lager onderwijs. Je kan er in verschillende vakgebieden mee aan de slag. Het lespakket wil kinderen duidelijk maken dat iedereen ter wereld recht heeft op gezondheidszorg, maar dat dit ondanks alles toch niet overal een evidente realiteit is. Onder andere in Namibië hebben veel mensen geen toegang tot enige vorm van gezondheidszorg. De leerlingen leren over de gezondheidszorg voor mensen die ver weg van steden, ziekenhuizen en artsen wonen. Het lespakket focust op een water- en sanitatieproject van het Rode Kruis in de Namibische Kunene-regio. Dankzij dit project heeft de lokale Himbabevolking toegang tot zuiver water en is hun gezondheidssituatie verbeterd. Met het water- en sanitatieproject werkt het Rode Kruis ook aan een aantal millenniumdoelstellingen. De teksten in het lespakket zijn gebaseerd op het kinderboek 'Robbe en de Himbamaan', door Hanne en Wouter Ninclaus. Het lespakket kan gedownload worden.

The first genocide of the twentieth century, though not well known, was committed by Germans between 1904-1907 in the country we know today as Namibia, where they exterminated hundreds of Herero and Nama people and subjected the surviving indigenous men, women, and children to forced labor. The perception of Africans as subhuman "lacking any kind of civilization, history, or meaningful religion" and the resulting justification for the violence against them is what author Elizabeth R. Baer refers to as the "genocidal gaze" an attitude that was later perpetuated by the Nazis. In The Genocidal Gaze: From German Southwest Africa to the Third Reich, Baer uses the metaphor of the gaze to trace linkages between the genocide of the Herero and Nama and that of the victims of the Holocaust. Significantly, Baer also considers the African gaze of resistance returned by the indigenous people and their leaders upon the German imperialists.
