MIRIAM MAKEBA: REMEMBERING FESTAC [1977]
I

“[After the Soweto Uprising of 1976] in many places I went I would meet . . . South Africans [in exile]. I met many when I was in Nigeria during FESTAC 77. FESTAC was the Festival of African Culture that brought together artists and musicians from about 50 countries in Africa and the African diaspora, as it is called. The first FESTAC was labelled the World Festival of Negro Arts. It had been held about 10 years before in Senegal and I had been invited. In the early Sixties some Senegalese artists approached me and they booked me, it was five years in advance. I agreed, but thought to myself, "Who will be alive in '66?" So of course by the time the Senegal event happened I had double-booked and I missed it.”

II

“But yes I was alive for FESTAC 1977. Stevie Wonder was there that year and it was the year that he won four Grammys for his album ‘Songs in the Key of Life’. His acceptance speech was telecast from Nigeria and this was organised by me. We stayed up all night waiting for America to award the Grammys. Stevie Wonder received the award from FESTAC. While he was in Nigeria he wanted to go to the great Nigerian musican Fela Kuti's home at his Kalakuta Republic. I said to him, "You cannot go there tonight." That night Kalakuta was raided and many people were hurt including Fela's mother. The night of the awards was the only time FESTAC was really mentioned internationally even though it represented so many African countries. Here were all these African countries gathered to celebrate our arts and our culture yet the world ignored us.”

III

“At FESTAC we lived in one big village where there were houses for all the different countries. Each night we would say there is a party in Guinea or there is a party in Tanzania, depending on which people from which country were organising it. It was beautiful, but it was a big, big thing and there were problems, like bad organisation. But here were different African peoples meeting and getting together. Some people there had never seen aboriginal people, they were there. There were people from Swaziland, for example, wearing their traditional attire. It was beautiful.”

IV

“At FESTAC I met so many young people and students who had left South Africa. Many of these young people were getting out [of Apartheid South Africa] even without passports. They were everywhere. People were desperate to go out and learn anything so they could go back and fight for their land and for their rights. It showed me that you couldn't keep the people down forever. I met people like David Sibeko, Vusi Make and even Tsietsi Mashinini at FESTAC. Tsietsi was the leader of the South African Students Movement branch in Soweto, the group that had led the June 16 [1976] protests in Soweto.”

V

“He had heard about this Miriam Makeba, and so he came to the house I was staying at and said to me, ‘I am looking for Miriam Makeba.’ I said, ‘You are looking at her.’ He came with his friends and they sat down. They said they had no money, no clothes, no food. They said they had left, escaped from Morris Isaacson School and had gone to England and then come here. I sat with them and asked about home. I also met a young woman called Muntu Mvuyana there. She also had no passport. I eventually took her to Guinea with me. There was a lady doctor in Nigeria who helped a lot of the [South African] students. Some ended up in schools in the north far away from Lagos. These kids never stayed in one place long. Most of them could not. I know someone like Tsietsi went to Liberia, then I heard that he was in Senegal then Nigeria, then all was quiet. When I came home [to South Africa] in 1990 [after the fall of Apartheid] I had pictures of Tsietsi and his family that I gave to his parents.”

My boys are dealing with you inside your country like a Mumu, nacking your girlfriends like potatoes you are here wailing like a demon, show me another source this story you and your father cooked up

KingCold:
As for the other gibberish...
Europeans colonised every corner of Africa bar Ethiopia... don't know what you're on about. The same Anglo-Saxons colonised you and you've been crying for them ever since

Zimbabweans, Ethiopians, west Africans, Malawians, Mozambicans, etc, exist on the periphery of our society, mostly in slums. Don't know who they're "out-eking'here, lol. Look at the GDP per capita of South Africans and compare it with the shitholes you've name dropped or better yet compare it with the GDP per capita of your own country.


When Nigerians are caught with drugs blame who? Outerspace aliens? The Lesotho illegal miners bombing their way in the country blame who? The food poisoning Somalis and Pakistanis? Thr murderous and cable- thieving Zimbabweans? You can't come to SA and act as you please, over-burden our country then expect us to be quiet about it. You won't see that, call me "xenophobic" for all I care!

LOL, As for the tired "your women prefer us" delusion, it just goes to show little you know of South Africans and how much you're despised over here, dating Nigerians is taboo fam, those that do are outliers and are looked down upon by society because you do not have a good standing in SA. South African women prefer their own men hence 99.9% are dating them. I understand the insatiable need to be desired by them, we have by far the hottest damsels on the continent, I get the projection

Google, actual slavery in Africa, Nigeria comes out top place my guy. You enslave your own over there. Anyways, what would it be so bad in your own country that your people rush to a place of slaves en masse while the actual "slaves" don't even bother escaping over there? Who's drowning in oceans trying to escape the slave-like conditions of their own country trying to make it to Europe? Certainly NOT South Africans.

The food stamps and the welfare, the road accidents fund amongst other things, is the stuff your ignored brethren dream of enjoying. Your ugly women cross borders to have their babies born this side because of the perks of being born in South Africa. Which other country has its elders earning a salary? the mothers, the disabled, etc, it's called being taken care of by your own govt.

We re not the ones waiting for manna, we go forward building and improving our own country, today we have universities, hospitals, high-speed trains, etc , unmatched by your loudmouth country. You on the other hand japa all over the place, hopping from one country to another , leeching on the sweet and blood of other men.

If you people were nearly as "enterprising" as you love claiming online, your country would be like Singapore by now or at least South Africa, but as things stand, Nigeria's one Africa's worst countries .the likes of Senegal, Angola, etc are far ahead infrastructuraly and in standard of life.

Do you even know what the economy is or how it's generated? Lol

Eish! You have clobbered this flat head very hard. He won't wake up until next year

KingCold:

But its still a damn slum

zinaunreal:


But its still a damn slum

hahaha..its because you know a South African "slum" will likely still have amenities even your big towns can only dream of Khayelitsha has malls, hotels, hospitals, etc, etc...it's called a "slum" because the settlement is informal and you still find proper houses there

No slum in South Africa comes close to anything I've seen of Makoko

zinaunreal:


But its still a damn slum

Here's the so-called "slum" Khayelitsha, because you bark it's name on every thread but have no clue what it looks like
