With a population of more than 11 million people, the Zulu Kingdom, South Africa's largest ethnic group lost its King and Queen within days of each other.

This tragedy has thrown the culturally rich Kingdom into disarray as the battle for the throne gets tough.

Sulaiman Aledeh was joined on #VillageSquareAfrica by SIHAWUKELE NGUBANE, Professor of African Languages at the University of KwaZulu-Natal, Durban South Africa.

This exclusive Al Jazeera documentary is the incredible behind-the-scenes account of one man's extraordinary battle against judicial corruption in Ghana, one of sub-Saharan Africa's most developed countries.

Over the course of two years, acclaimed investigative journalist Anas Aremeyaw Anas secretly filmed 12 of the country's High Court judges, 22 other judges, and 140 other court officials accepting bribes.

In early September this year, despite huge pressure to keep his findings confidential, Anas released them to the Ghanaian public, unleashing an almost unprecedented crisis of confidence in the nation's judiciary - hitherto one of its most trusted and revered institutions.

Justice! follows this most unconventional journalist, a qualified barrister in his own right, as these dramatic events come to a climax; revealing the complex moral and ethical dilemmas involved in an self-funded crusade that always looked likely to humble some of the most powerful men in the country, but which controversially also led to the release of alleged violent criminals from police custody.

Although his identity is a closely guarded secret - because maintaining his anonymity is so crucial to working undercover - Anas has long enjoyed huge public support in Ghana and across Africa. Famously his work has even been endorsed by US President Barack Obama. But this this time even many of his friends feared he had bitten off more than he could chew, that the stakes were too high, that the risks to his safety were too great.

This film tells of the huge political and personal pressures that saw Anas put his own and his family's lives on the line as the day of revelation drew near, the number of deaths threats increased and tense last-minute manoeuvring was needed to outwit the shadowy enemies trying desperately to stifle the story.

The resulting scandal, which is still playing out, is changing the political landscape of the nation and its effects may be felt for years to come. As Kofi Annan, former UN Secretary- General and one of Ghana's most famous sons says in the film. "Sometimes it takes a spark, just a spark, and I think Anas has provided that spark for the whole edifice to blow up."

One thing is certain - it makes for compelling viewing.

We're honoring the 100th anniversary commemoration of the Tulsa Massacre sometimes poorly referred to as the Tulsa riot. We discuss how the pre-massacre Black Wall Street, a prominent Black business district located in the segregated Greenwood neighborhood of Tulsa, Oklahoma, was not the self-sustaining Black utopia/Wakanda that popular media has depicted it as. More importantly, we discuss the nature of the racial violence that occurred on May 31st - June 1st 1921, and how it was an inevitable outcome of racial capitalism. In the end, we hope to honor the descendants of this horrible tragedy by reporting the truth of what they built and how they worked to defend it.

Syliphone
Au lendemain de la décolonisation de la Guinée, le nouveau président Sékou Touré s'affirme comme le promoteur d'une réhabilitation de l'authenticité africaine face au déni colonial des cultures colonisées. Dans une perspective d'unité nationale et panafricaine, les artistes obtiennent le statut de fonctionnaire d'état et sont encouragés par le gouvernement à composer et écrire de nouvelles chansons dans un style plus moderne tout en puisant dans le répertoire des récits historiques et des musiques ancestrales de l'aire Mandingue. Le fer de lance de cette politique n'était autre qu'un label d'état, le label Syliphone, dont les enregistrements sont de formidables témoignages du dynamisme et des richesses culturelles d'un peuple à l'aube de son indépendance qui porte au monde la voix de sa révolution.

► Bembeya Jazz National
Le Bembeya Jazz National, mosaïque des traditions guinéennes, est fondé en 1961. En gagnant aux deux premières biennales (1964 et 1966), cet orchestre, issu des groupes régionaux, est invité en tournée à Cuba et promu orchestre national en 1966. Modèle de tous les orchestres ouest-africains, il s'inspirait de la musique Mandingue réadaptée aux guitares électriques avec des rythmes évoquant la rumba zaïroise et les orchestres cubains soutenus par une section de cuivres. Son rôle est de jouer tous les rythmes du pays. Un de ses membres historiques Achken Kaba, s'en explique ainsi : "la Guinée est musicalement un résumé de l'Afrique de l'Ouest, et même au-delà. Dans le Fouta, la flûte et la vièle des Peul font le lien avec le monde arabe. Sur la Basse-Côte, on retrouve les mêmes danses qu'au Libéria ou dans le sud de la Côte d'Ivoire et du Ghana, et jusqu'au Nigeria. Les Guinéens forestiers ont une alimentation, une corpulence et une culture qui les rapprochent même des Congolais."
Dans sa longue épopée jusque dans les années 90, le Bembeya a vu défiler de nombreux grands musiciens parmi lesquels son fondateur et chanteur légendaire Aboubacar Demba Camara, accompagné du guitariste non moins légendaire Sékou "Bembeya" Diabaté "Diamond fingers", puis plus tard notamment du jeune chanteur et futur star Sékouba Bambino qui est à l'honneur dans le Volume 2 : "Bembeya Jazz : Les années 80".
