    'There are countless poets of the body, but in Cornell's hands women's bodies bleed, and leak and ache, they become sites of explicit corporeal information so that we cannot ignore them. They are "never small, never light, always all" - brought to the forefront, not as palatable or acceptable, but as an act of confrontation and resistance.' - Sarah Lubala, award-winning poet Nica Cornell is a South African writer with a Masters in African Studies from the University of Oxford. She began her career, aged 14, as a weekly newspaper columnist for the South African Times. This is her first book of poetry.

    I am a ventriloquist who uses both the Bible and oracle cards to dig into people's pasts, present and futures. For personal purposes, I also occasionally throw bones. I translate some of these 'rare moments' into poems that not only offer personal healing but also serve as media through which I transverse alternative worlds of thoughts. This collection is a creative engagement with my Xhosa heritage from both personal and historical perspectives. That is the platform that Dark Lines of History utilizes, a creative ownership of both individual and collective histories.Sithembele Isaac Xhegwana is an award winning South African poet presently working as a curator for Amazwi South African Museum of Literature. His debut novel, The Faint-Hearted Man was published by Buchu Books in 1991 and was longlisted for the Noma Award for Publishing in Africa.

    The contribution works toward achieving its mentality-changing goals by essentially providing Afrikentication lessons radiating principally around the theme: Making African education relevant to African liberation and progress. The linchpin of the book is that we Africans truly need to cease dangling uselessly and reclaim our authentic roots if we have to independently move forward. This is an objective we clearly cannot correctly achieve when our intellectuals and universities (among others) who are supposed to be furnishing our liberation movements with sane policy and thought-leadership do continue in the same old colonial way of sheepish 'theorising' that excessively indulges in obliterating genuine African perspectives. Indigenous African education is the way to go! An inevitable rethinking in education, culture, and religion in Africa is recommended, basing on innovation and critical thinking which are sure highlights of communalism, which is a defining feature of the African way of life. The book thus harps on the need to recentralise African values and philosophy in the freedom and governance of the continent, as well as stressing the dire need for unity and visionary, dedicated and patriotic leadership. Peter Ateh-Afac Fossungu, a researcher and prolific writer currently based in Shawinigan (Quebec, Canada), is holder of a vast array of academic degrees, including a PhD in law, three Master's in law (LLM), and a Master of Arts in Political Science. He has lectured courses in law and political science in both Cameroon and Canada, with his current research interests revolving on human rights, African cultures, African unity and development, African politics, family law and politics, and comparative studies. He has widely published on an assortment of issues of society and life in Africa and North America.

    Africa has always blamed external colonisation for its Catch-22s such as violent ethnic conflicts for the struggle for resource control, perpetual exploitation, poverty, and general underdevelopment all tacked to its past, which is a fact, logical, and the right to pour out vials of ire based perpetual victimhood it has clung to, and maintained, and lost a golden chance of addressing another type of colonialism, specifically internal colonisation presided over by black traitors or black betrayers or blats or blabes. Basically, internalised internal colonisation is but a mimesis of Africa's nemesis, namely external colonisation as another major side of the jigsaw-cum-story all those supposed to either clinically address or take it on, have, by far, never done so for their perpetual peril. In addressing internal colonisation, this corpus explores and interrogates the narratives and nuances of the terms it uses. The untold story of Africa is about internal colonisation that has alluded to many for many years up until now simply because it made Africans wrongly believe that it is only external colonisation their big and only enemy.Nkwazi. N. Mhango is a Peace and Conflict Studies scholar currently at the Arthur V. Mauro Institute of Peace and Justices, St. Paul College, University of Manitoba, specialised in African studies, African history, decolonisation, deconstruction theories and terrorism.

    Even though Zimbabwe's ghetto musicians have been vocal in articulating the ghetto struggles through Zimdancehall music, Ghetto literature in the 21st century in Zimbabwe is an area that has scarcely got strong attention from Zimbabwean poets and writers writing now. Yes, we have tackled ghetto subjectivities and difficulties through tackling Zimbabwe's political situation, which I still do in this collection, but I also went further and tackled ghetto as "place literature", developing voices for the masses in ghettos, especially in Zimbabwe's biggest ghetto city, Chitungwiza. The ghetto is a place that changes you in ways that only blues music can manage to encapsulate and like Blues music this collection is both bitter and sweet. A few poems in Ghetto Blues give insight into what shaped the poet, in poems about his birthplace in the east of Zimbabwe, on love, on religion, on race, on migration and xenophobia in South Africa.

    This project comes from our need to harness voices in Africa and the Latin America, giving these voices an opportunity to converse, argue, synthesize, agree, and share ideas on the craft of writing, on life, on being, on thinking, so that we will all benefit. Sixty-two writers and poets are included, of which 19 were purely fiction writers, six were mixed genres writers, one a non-fiction writer, one a playwright, and 35 are poets. Altogether there are 92 pieces in two languages: English and Spanish. Starcy Hardy, in the first entry in the anthology, deals with a war situation in an unnamed African country. Afopefoluwa Ojo deals with the personal haunted worlds of the writers, artists or art enthusiasts who dealt with the demons (supposed) in her own unique way. Ayo Oyeku deals with adultery, Ikechukwu Nwaogu deals with abuse and AIDS, Honduran Ludwig Varela describes a Latin America numbed by violence and crime where the family man lives on the border between the legal and the survival instinct, in an asphalt jungle where only the strongest survive. Soira Celestino from Brazil takes us back to the magical world of fairies and the dead in a romantic fable. In the conference of Hocquetot Gustavo Campos makes us witnesses of comic responses from a slightly eccentric writer; the poetry of Argentine Claudio Archubi invites us to dream with its dramatic and somber images at once. Este proyecto surge de la necesidad de tratar de aprovechar las voces de África y América Latina, dando eco a la oportunidad de conversar, discutir, sintetizar, estar de acuerdo, diferir y compartir ideas, puede ser dentro del terreno de la escritura, la vida, el ser, el pensamiento, de modo que todos nos beneficiemos. 62 escritores, de los cuales 19 eran puramente escritores de ficción, 6 escritores de géneros mixtos, 1 escritor de no ficción, 1 dramaturgo, 35 poetas, en total reunimos 92 piezas en dos idiomas: inglés y español. Starcy Hardy en el primer texto de la antología nos describe una situación de guerra en un país africano sin nombre. Afopefoluwa Ojo se ocupa del mundo embrujado de los escritores, artistas o aficionados al arte que se enfrentan a los demonios (supuestamente) en su particular estilo. Ayo Oyeku habla sobre adulterio, Ikechukwu Nwaogu se ocupa de los abusos y el SIDA, de Honduras Ludwing Varela nos describe una Latinoamérica adormecida por la violencia y la delincuencia donde el hombre de familia vive entre la frontera de lo legal y el instinto de supervivencia, como una jungla asfáltica donde solo los más fuertes sobreviven. Soira Celestino desde Brasil nos remonta al mágico mundo de las hadas y los muertos en una fábula romántica. En la conferencia de Hocquetot Gustavo Campos nos hace testigos de las cómicas respuestas de un escritor un poco excéntrico, la poesía del Argentino Claudio Archubi nos invita a ensoñar con sus imágenes dramáticas y sombrías a la vez.Tendai Rinos Mwanaka is a publisher, editor, mentor, thinker, literary artist, visual artist and musical artist with over 40 books published.Rodríguez Ricardo Félix was born 1975 in Caborca, Sonora, Mexico.

    The epistemic deficiency of contending issue in post-imperial Africa, Zimbabwe in particular influence the author to take readers on the interesting journey of joining the reflections of ghetto life into concept and culture. Ghetto renaissance responding to ghetto condition proved itself to the future, Cultural Revolution confronting Afro-fascist nationalist regimes and the complex global coloniality. Though some challenges, such as identity crisis, self-hate and criminal activities, ghetto cosmology left no stone unturned in making the post-colonial Zimbabwe a practical political project in the prism of decoloniality.
