No ano de 1881, em Salvador -- BA, nasce Manuel Bernardino da Paixão. Em 1919, Bernardino iniciou-se na Nação do Kongo, pelas mãos do Muxikongo (designação das pessoas naturais do Kongo), Manuel Nkosi, sacerdote iniciado na África. Com o passar do tempo, Bernardino já muito famoso, fundou o Inzo Manzo Bandukenké (Bate-Folha), situado na Mata Escura, em Salvador, Bahia. Por volta de 1938, o primeiro filho da casa, João Correia de Mello, o João Lessenge (Lessengue), mudou-se para o Rio de Janeiro, em Anchieta, local onde o terreiro se encontra nos dias de hoje.
Este álbum, feito em parceria com diversos órgãos públicos, é um trabalho primoroso de reunião de 46 cantigas, três para cada Nkisi (leia inquice), interpretadas por Mam'etu Mabeji (mametu é a mãe de santo). Os Nkisi, na cultura bantu, correspondem aos Orixás da cultura iorubá. Essa correspondência é apenas semelhança, não são nomes diferentes para uma mesma coisa. Os Nkisi tem origens e cultos diferentes, embora muito das culturas se misture. Só para citar algumas dessas relações, umas quase idênticas, outras que só lembram de longe: Pambunjila (Exu), Nkosi (Ogum), Nzazi (Xangô), Hongolo (Oxumaré), Dandaluna (Oxum), Lembá (Oxalá).

Efrat Yerday, Ph.D. Candidate in Sociology at Tel Aviv University, Israel's Chairperson of the Association of Ethiopian Jews, and the 2020 recipient of the New Israel Fund's “Guardian of Democracy” Gallanter Prize, presents a public talk that was recorded on Feb. 10 on Ethiopian Jews' struggle for naturalization between 1955-1975.The story of Ethiopian Jewish immigration to Israel typically begins after 1975.

This talk is part of Protest, Race and Citizenship across African Worlds Winter 2021 Online Lecture Series. Sponsored by the Henry M. Jackson School of International Studies and African Studies Program, in partnership with the Center for Global Studies, Comparative History of Ideas, Near Eastern Languages & Civilization, Simpson Center for the Humanities at the University of Washington and the Henry M.
