Extractions: In anthropology, a pygmy is a member of any human group whose adult males grow to less than 150 cm (59 inches) in average height. A member of a slightly taller group is termed pygmoid. The best-known pygmy groups and those to whom the term is most commonly applied are the Pygmies of tropical Africa; elsewhere in Africa some of the San (Bushmen) of the Kalahari are of pygmy size. All Asian pygmies are known by the generic term Negrito. These groups are biologically independent in origin. Culturally, all pygmy peoples are nomadic hunters and gatherers, practicing neither agriculture nor stock farming. Nearly all of them maintain close symbiotic relations with sedentary agriculturalists in their environment; consequently, in most cases they have lost their indigenous language and adopted that of their hosts. The famous Pygmy groups of the Ituri Forest in Congo (Kinshasa) present an example of a pygmy culture relatively unchanged as a result of acculturation with neighboring peoples. Known collectively as the Bambuti, they are probably the earliest inhabitants of the region. Another well-known Pygmy group in equatorial Africa are the Twa (Batwa), who live in the high mountains and plains around Lake Kivu, in Congo, Rwanda, and Burundi, in symbiosis with the pastoral Tutsi, the agricultural Hutu, and other tribes. Many specialize in pottery, which they market; others hunt; some act as court musicians and attendants.

Extractions: Jan van Boeckel (partly published in INDIGO, magazine of Netherlands Centre for Indigenous Peoples, Jan./Febr. 2000) The alarming interest of the ''New Right'' for indigenous peoples A well-known expression of indigenous peoples is: ''The Earth does not belong to us, we belong to the Earth.'' Man is only a small part of Creation, and he should not be its ruler. This view communicates a respectful, humble attitude towards nature. But with some evil will, this expression of relatedness with all that lives can easily be associated with dangerous ''Blut und Boden''-thinking. In this regard, it could be instructive to look back in history to see how feelings of connection to nature have been misused in pre-Second World War Germany. Today, again, radical-rightist groups are standing up which pride themselves in saying that their conduct is being guided by ''the laws of nature''. Next to that, they claim to be big proponents of cultural self-determination, even - or expressly - for indigenous peoples. Inspired by Romanticism, a broad interest in protecting nature developed in Germany at the end of the nineteenth century. Nature was regarded as something pure and transcendental, the antipole of the modern world which had broken adrift. Something in their traditional character as a people was to give Germans a special touch with that nature. The word ''Volk'' (people) was a concept infused by myth, with which a special bond was expressed with a transcendental ''essence''. Via the Volk, the individual knew he or she was related to the wider cosmos. This bond, or so people thought, was of real influence on their deepest inner being. Life was given meaning by being member of a large whole, the ''Volks-gemeinschaft''. The so- called

Never a dull country, the people, topography and dynamic political changes make Rwanda one of the continuous riddles on the continent. Blessed with superb wildlife, beautiful green mountains as well as sublime Lake Kivu, this is one of the 'must visit' countries in central Africa. Topography: A hilly plateau dominates the central portion of Rwanda. Eastward toward Tanzania, the land slopes downward to a series of marshy lakes along the upper Kagera River. To the west of the plateau lies part of the volcanic Virunga Mountains, which form the watershed between the Nile and Congo river systems. Volcan Karisimbi, on the border between Rwanda and Congo (DRC), is the range's highest peak at 4,507 meters (14,787 feet).

Extractions: The World Conference on Racism ended in Durban, this year, recognizing that historical injustices have undeniably contributed to poverty, under development, marginalisation, social exclusion, economic disparity, instability and insecurity affecting peace and development in developing countries. Sub-Saharan Africa seems to be the mostly affected victim of slavery, colonization and neocolonialism. Not surprisingly, this region is also predominantly inhabited by Black peoples who are still faced with manifestations of racism, which continues to threaten their identity and existence. Racism continues to generate a permanent state of cultural genocide against Black peoples and African civilisations. Cultural genocide in this case refers to systematic rejection or destruction of culture, identity and existence of an ethnic group or community on basis of race.

Extractions: Published in African Security Review Vol 8 No 6, 1999 The histories of Burundi and its northern neighbour Rwanda provide interesting comparisons and contrasts. This is not simply because they share the same ethnic composition, but because by the time they were absorbed into the German colonial empire in the late 19th century, both were long-established kingdoms. In other words, Burundi and Rwanda are unusual among modern African states in that they are not simply artificial creations of the colonial era. The kingdom of Burundi developed its present territorial base starting in the 17th century. Under the leadership of a royal clan, Hima pastoralists entered the country from southern Ethiopia and extended their control over the indigenous Bantu societies, which they then assimilated. Further conquest was prevented by the proximity of other powerful states, but in the early 19th century, expansion was resumed to include areas that now form part of Rwanda and Tanzania.

Extractions: by Majid Tehranian A Bahaii in Iran is a non-entity. Under the Shah's regime, a Bahaii could not declare his or her faith in an application for civil service employment. Under the Islamic Republican regime, he or she is subject to arrest and execution as an apostate. A Kurd in Turkey is called a Mountain Turk. S/he is denied to have his or her own cultural identity, the right to speak her language and to recreate her culture. Although Kurds constitute some 22% of the population of Turkey, they are denied regional autonomy in eastern Turkey where 13 million of them live. In fact, Kurds are perhaps the most stateless nation in the world. Their population of 26 million is divided between Turkey, Iran, Iraq, and Syria, in all of which they suffer various degrees of discrimination. A girl in Afghanistan under the Taliban regime has no right to schooling let alone any other human rights. A woman in Saudi Arabia cannot elect or be elected to public office. She also is not allowed to drive a car or ride a bicycle. Females in many parts of Africa are subjected to genital circumcision and mutilation.

Extractions: RIGHTS: Victims Speak about their Experiences with Racism By Cheryl Goodenough DURBAN, Sep 7 (IPS) - Twenty-one people who told the World Conference Against Racism about their experience with racism in a special forum entitled 'Voices' have called for their voices never to be forgotten . The speakers, from countries including Brazil, South Africa, Turkey, the United Kingdom, India, Niger, the United States, Australia, Bosnia and Rwanda handed 'The Voices Vision' to the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights Mary Robinson on Thursday. The vision stated, ''As individuals we speak of deeply personal experiences but make no mistake, these stories are not ours alone. We speak for all of our brothers and sisters who suffer in every country, on every continent, in every part of the world.'' In response, Robinson said that she never would forget their voices. ''None of us who heard you will ever forget your voices.'' She said that the speakers had told ''shocking stories'' and that they were correct in saying that they represented millions of people. ''This is our world,'' stated the high commissioner.

Extractions: The guilt returns every time I remember the incident. And with it comes a different kind of anger, deeper and more durable. It is an anger against everything that had colluded to prompt those words to a child. The insidious learning of racism which comes about through our friends and families, the films we watch, the stories we hear, the education we get, the line our politicians peddle. Because racism affects both offender and victim, albeit unequally. Racist societies are literally sick societies. Their myopia will not let them see that their economic woes are due to economic policies rather than scapegoats: they bear the ulcers of violence, mistrust and inequality. The racist is chained to hatred; it defines and controls. For the person subject to race hatred, every social interaction can be a reminder.
