Planning For BBMM2013 (British Black Music Month 2013). Potential  
Partners Sought
British Black Music Month (BBMM) is a BritishBlackMusic.com/Black  
Music Congress (BBM/BMC) initiative started in 2006. It takes place  
throughout June into mid-July. BBMM offers an opportunity to celebrate  
domestic black music, discuss issues, better understand the music  
industry & copyright issues, and network. It uses a wide range of  
platforms, from debates, music industry courses, radio specials, live  
gigs, club nights, film nights, fairs, networking events, and Talking  
Copyright seminars. It’s not aimed exclusively at Africans nor at just  
those in the music industry. BBM/BMC works with partners to deliver  
its programmes. If you're a potential partner or would like to deliver  
a programme under the BBMM2013 banner, do get in touch. Cick to see  
BBMM2012 events and previous BBMM events.





BTWSC NARM African British Histories Roll On With NARM Paul Stephenson  
& Bristol Bus Boycott @ 50 And NARM John Archer London's First African  
Mayor @ 100 - for March events, see www.narm2013.eventbrite.com
Sometimes the way we carry on, it's so easy to think there isn't much  
of an African history in Britain! John Archer and Paul Stephenson are  
NARM role models and the focus of BTWSC/African Histories Revisited’s  
2013 African British history presentations. They can be dealt with  
separately or together in one programme. The presentation can be  
adapted for youths, adults and inter-generational audiences. We are on  
the look out for bookings – it can be presented in any venue suitable  
for Powerpoint presentation. We’ve got March bookings with Harrow and  
Wandsworth libraries. By the way, it will be 100 years since John  
Archer became London's first African mayor, and 50 years since Paul  
Stephenson successfully led the Bristol Bus Boycott. For more  
information regarding creating or delivering an African British civil  
rights history programme around these 2 NARM role models: [log in to unmask]

> Understanding imperialism leads to a better understanding of our own  
> history. It has proved of exceptional importance in the social  
> sciences and the humanities. With the end of formal Western  
> colonization of the Global South in the 1970s and the 1980s,  
> however, the absence of a primary academic scholarly reference on  
> imperialism has been unmistakably evident. Since the 1990s, to make  
> matters worse, the dismantling of the Soviet Union has diminished  
> scholarly concern with imperialism. While post-colonial studies have  
> dealt with persistent forms of cultural domination, the geopolitical  
> and economic factors of imperialism have been generally downplayed.  
> However, while formal imperialism has steadily declined, the rapid  
> expansion of free-markets that has dramatically brought together  
> global societies and stimulated a new era of imperialism within and  
> across borders. The Palgrave Encyclopedia of Imperialism and Anti- 
> Imperialism is conceived and designed to fill this enormous gap for  
> scholars and students across academic disciplines. In 2001, the  
> publication of Empire, by Antonio Negri and Michael Hardt, and more  
> recently Projecting Empire: Imperialism and Popular Cinema (2009),  
> by James Chapman and Nicholas J. Cull, once again demonstrated the  
> significance of imperialism. Other scholars like David Harvey, or  
> Lee Grieveson and Colin McCabe in Film Studies, have offered fresh  
> interpretations of the phenomenon. Nevertheless, there is still the  
> profound need for a comprehensive, non-Euro-/American-centric  
> collection on imperialism that will speak to the various and broad  
> interests of scholars and students in the social sciences and the  
> humanities across the globe.

> Description and Rationale
>
>
>
> The Palgrave Encyclopedia of Imperialism and Anti-Imperialism will  
> objectively present the prominent themes, epochal events,  
> theoretical explanations, and historical accounts of imperialism  
> from 1776 to the present. This scholarly endeavor will include  
> discussion of the phenomenon in international, national, regional,  
> ethic, and even religious terms. Our work will demonstrate how  
> diverse interpretations of imperialism have shaped the way  
> contemporary historians, social scientists, filmmakers, and  
> scientists map the past. It analyzes the various methodologies,  
> concepts, and pedagogies that have emerged. Imperialism has  
> economic, geo-political, and cultural variants. The phenomenon has  
> been generated by mercantilism, capitalism, and communism.  
> Imperialism has been understood as a function of nationalism and  
> militarism. Liberal, religious, and racist ideals have often  
> justified the imperialist impulse. Our work treats all of this. It  
> interprets imperialism from the standpoint of modernity and  
> postmodernity and, thus, we take the eighteenth century as our  
> starting point.

>
> Imperialism has transformed human civilization, economic activity,  
> redefined borders, and transformed the lives of most human beings on  
> the planet. In the process, imperialism has circumscribed racial,  
> ethnic, gender, class, caste, and other differences in identity. Our  
> work explores the means by which imperialism and changes in  
> transportation, science, and the new technology have propelled forms  
> of imperialism in humans, as well as the resulting transformations  
> of cultures, architecture, visual art, fashion, and food.  We also  
> analyze the negative impact of imperialism with respect to  
> population transfers, forced migration, and the like. Millions upon  
> millions of people have been displaced from their original  
> communities and moved into inhospitable and intolerant localities.  
> Refugees and victims of human and organ trafficking seeking  
> political asylum constitute only the tip of the iceberg while  
> slavery is only the most epochal and extreme example of what has  
> been a general exploitation of the non-western world.  While the  
> drive to colonize typically embraces a view of human freedom and  
> opportunity for some, for the vast majority, imperial and colonial  
> movements have resulted in new forms of economic subjugation by  
> those with more advanced technology and military might.

> But the story of imperialism would be incomplete without including  
> the resistance and the demand for freedom that it brought about.  
> Anti-imperialism has taken as various a set of forms as imperialism  
> itself. Resistance has been carried out by simple uprisings against  
> cruelty and external domination. It has been spurred by the desire

> oppressor, religious visions, and even the longing for imaginary  
> communities. Anti-imperialism has been carried on by communist
