📜 The First Opium War - Part 1 - Extra History
In 1792, Great Britain had just come out of an expensive war that cost them their control over many of their colonies in North America. Other wars had also cost them their access to the silver mines of South America, which had been helping fund so much of their trade with the Qing Dynasty of China. European traders all wanted greater access to China, but the Emperor was wary of letting outsiders too far into his country and kept them all penned up at the port of Canton, which was strictly regulated by the Hong business group. A flourishing blackmarket trade grew, but Britain wanted more. One trader, acting on his own initiative, grew bold enough to approach Beijing and attempt to get a hearing over his trade grievances, but the Chinese considered this a huge breach of protocol and an offense to the Emperor. Britain had to do something, however: they imported over 10 million pounds of tea each year, equal to 10% of the government's annual spending, and the fact that China did not have anywhere near as great an interest in British products meant that they were running an enormous trade deficit they could no longer sustain. The Crown appointed an official envoy, Earl George Macartney, with orders to end the Canton system, establish an embassy, and acquire rights to an island that would be under British control in the same way that the Portuguese controlled Macao. The mission failed spectacularly. Although Macartney got permission to sail north and meet the Qianlong Emperor in his summer palace at Jehol, he refused to perform the traditional kowtow which was required upon meeting the Emperor. He presented gifts from the British court, but the Chinese interpreted these gifts as tribute, not trade enticements, and decided they had no need for nor interest in what he offered. Since he failed to get them to agree to any of his three requests, Britain wanted to find another way to address the trade imbalance with China. Soon, this would lead them to start bringing in opium.

📜 The First Opium War - Part 2 - Extra History
The tea trade flowing from China had left the British government in staggering debt. They had loaned huge amounts to the Honourable East India Company (EIC) to conquer India, and to pay their debts, the EIC turned that land into poppy fields and manufactured opium in huge quantities. Since China had banned the opium trade, the EIC set up a market in Calcutta (part of their Indian territory) and turned a blind eye to the black market traders who smuggled it into China. By 1839, over 6.6 million pounds of opium were being smuggled into China every year. The Chinese DaoGuang Emperor appointed an upright official named Lin Zexu to halt this opium trade. Lin orchestrated a massive campaign to arrest opium traders, force addicts into rehab, and confiscate pipes. He even laid siege to British warehouses when the merchants refused to turn over their opium supply, instead taking it all by force and burning it. The outraged merchants sought redress from their government, but although the Chief Superintendant Charles Elliot promised them restitution, the government never had any intention of paying them back. Amid the unrest, two British sailors brutally murdered a Chinese man. Lin Zexu demanded their extradition, but Elliot insisted on trying them aboard his ship and sentencing them himself. Lin Zexu had enough. He halted the British food supply and ordered the Portuguese to eject them from Macau. They retreated to a barren island off the coast (now known as Hong Kong). Since the island could not support them, Elliot petitioned the Chinese to sell them food again. He received no response. Then he sent men to collect it directly, but on their way back they were halted by the Chinese navy, and the first engagement of the Opium Wars began.

In this video show Young Africans working hard to bring changes economically.

Captain Ibrahim Traore inaugurated the Mining residue processing plant.Captain Traore said the opening of the factory was all part of his regime's bid to have the country manage its own resources. He invited other African states to bring their own mining waste to Burkina Faso "because we have the technology to process."The establishment of the plant is designed to allow Burkina Faso to process onsite and have full control of the waste.

Africa undeniably has a problem with religious extremism. Why is it that Africans remain vulnerable to fanaticism and doomsday sects?

Kenyan cult leader Paul Mackenzie, who’s been in custody for over 100 days, has now been charged with manslaughter for the deaths of over 200 people. The self-proclaimed pastor and 94 other suspects, including his wife, pleaded ‘not guilty’ to 238 counts of manslaughter in what is now known as the Shakahola massacre. Mass graves in the forest by that name have turned up the emaciated and abused corpses of his followers, sometimes of entire families. It’s alleged he preached starvation as a route to heaven.

We chat with Pan-African professor PLO Lumumba as we wrap up January to find out why the African continent is so susceptible to religious manipulation, discussing the root causes as well as possible ways to deter preying ‘pastors.’

⁣This video is a documentary by Ange Casta aired on Channel 1 for the first time on September 7, 1969, on the program "Un Certain Regard". It is an interview by Enrico Fulchignoni with the great Amadou Hampâté Bâ (1900/1901 - 1991), a Malian writer, historian and ethnologist and one of the most authentic interpreters of the genius of African oral tradition.

Amadou Hampâté Bâ is the author of the famous quote: "In Africa, when an old man dies, it is a library that blazes up." This program dedicated to him aimed to highlight the important and valuable knowledge of the African continent and its universal heritage of culture. In this interview Amadou Hampâté Bâ shows how colonization, literacy, and at a different level, ethnological work, have broken the springs which allowed this culture to perpetuate and develop.

The content of this video is important to share with the public as it describes our vision of education. To expand its reach Renée Akitelek Mboya and Aude Mgba worked on English subtitles which is an ongoing project on translation and language.

Amadou Hampâté Bâ in Un certain regard is part of My learning is affected by the condition of my life, a symposium spread over time by Aude Christel Mgba, which is an experiment of various forms of learning, listening, touching, transmitting and producing knowledge.
