Prestwichstraat-begrafplaas: Memory contestations innie Kaap

Katika kipindi hiki, Bongani Kona anatembelea tena waasi wa vijijini ili kukomboa nchi yake ya Zimbabwe kutoka kwa utawala wa wazungu katika miaka hii ya 1970. Kona anasema kuwa jinsi maadhimisho ya waliouawa kutokana na vita hivi yanavyofanywa na serikali ya baada ya ukoloni, ni suala linaloathiri masilahi ya walio hai na waliokufa. Hili ni toleo la Kiswahili la podikasti hii. Unaweza pia kusikiliza matoleo katika Kiingereza na Kifaransa.

In this episode, Bongani Kona revisits the largely rural insurgency to liberate his homeland of Zimbabwe from white rule in this 1970s. How the slain from this war are commemorated by the postcolonial state, Kona argues, is a matter that affects the well-being of both the living and the dead.

This episode is about the impossibility of telling the story of a child from Batibo, who died during the German colonial period in Cameroon at about eight years old. It is about the deliberate erasure of people, their knowledge, their culture, societal and political structures and the very real challenges with which this violence confronts us today. Current efforts towards restitution have to navigate the manifold effects of this violence, which often limit the possibilities of recovery and restoration. In this episode, Mikael Assilkinga talks about a part of his academic journey that brought him in contact with the physical remains of people from Cameroon, housed in a German university collection. This is the English version of this podcast. You can also listen to the versions in French and Fulfulde.

In this episode, Ibrahima Thiaw and Lamine Badji shed light on the often brutal ways in which knowledge was created at the Institut Français d'Afrique Noire. The agenda of the institute, better known as IFAN, was to study the people of the French West African empire. Ibrahima Thiaw and Lamine Badji discuss the urgency of addressing the colonial legacy of institutions such as IFAN in a sovereign Africa seeking to recover its humanity and dignity. They focus on the history of the remains of griots, which are still part of the collections of the Archaeology Laboratory of IFAN Cheikh Anta Diop. It is a particularly painful history. Not least, because it remains unresolved. This is the English version of this podcast. You can also listen to the versions in French and Wolof.

In 2003, the construction of a major residential and retail complex in Green Point, one of the more affluent, trendy districts of Cape Town, came to a grinding halt. Construction workers found the remains of people beneath the ground. Unexpectedly, these findings triggered one of the most symbolic struggles relating to memory politics and neoliberal urban planning in the post-apartheid era in South Africa. This is the English version of this podcast. You can also listen to the versions in French and Afrikaans.

Sophie Schasiepen introduces the histories discussed in the different episodes, gives some context to the choice of languages and talks about the reasons for creating the Mourning the Dead podcast.  'Mourning the Dead: Connecting histories of people, places, and remains' is a podcast about histories connected to the mortal remains of people. We talk about the violent dislocation of remains during or in the aftermath of colonial rule, the legacies of scientific racism, and the meaning of these histories for postcolonial struggles, memory politics and the work of restitution and redress. This is the English version of this podcast. You can also listen to the version in French.  Credits Author: Sophie SchasiepenNarrators: Sophie Schasiepen and Mamello MakhethaProducer / editor: Andri Burnett Acknowledgments  Many thanks to Professor Ciraj Rassool at the Department of Historical Studies for his unwavering support, as well as to Jane Smidt and the central administration of the University of the Western Cape for their administrative work.
