"There is much more work to be done than the mere discovery of conspiracies... We must also look at the realities that confront us as people... As I have warned before, by the time you find out the "conspiracy" and who's behind it, it's TOO LATE. And it takes more than knowing about it to defend yourself against it. And you really don't HAVE to know about it, frankly speaking. If you are only going to LEARN about "conspiracy", and THEN react, you remain in the SAME MODE OF ACTION that we are in today -- REACTIONARY. Our orientation toward the world today as African people must be PRO-actionary. Our ability to defend ourselves must occur BEFORE the fact. Our programs to liberate ourselves and to defend our liberation, to enhance our quality of life, to overthrow white supremacy, must go on REGARDLESS to what other people are doing...This is a POSITIVE approach." - Dr. Amos Wilson,

Steve Cokely (June 17, 1952 - April 11, 2012) was an American political researcher and lecturer who lectured nationally on political and economic issues relating especially to the African American community.

Steve Cokely was also a futurologist who commented extensively on water conservation, organic farming, and communal living. Cokely gave over 5,000 lectures on the topic of global warming and corporate conspiracies, the Trilateral Commission, The Bilderberg Group, Rothchilds, Rockefellers, Boule, etc.

Cokely's research delved into the history of Marcus Garvey, the Black Panthers and other areas of African-American history.

Cokely lectured at many college campuses nationally and was also known for his conspiracy theories involving the Black Male elite organization known as the Sigma Pi Phi and the Assassination of Martin Luther King Jr by the hands of Rev.Jesse Jackson and the C.I.A.

Cokely was assistant to the special committee on rules under Mayor Harold Washington. He gained notoriety when he served as special assistant to the former mayor of Chicago, Eugene Sawyer.

Cokely was criticized for teaching that Jewish doctors were using the AIDS virus in an attempted genocide against Africans. His comments created a nationally publicized controversy in 1988 and he was dismissed from his position as aide to Sawyer.

When in 1990 Illinois Governor James Thompson signed an agreement to open an Israeli Aircraft Industries plant in Rockford, Cokely was an outspoken opponent. He argued that Black leaders in Illinois should oppose Israeli war industries because of their military support for the Apartheid system in South Africa.

Cokely gained the national spotlight again in 1996 after he was scheduled to speak at "Our Roots Run Deep", a Black History Month lecture series in New York City hosted by the Warner Music Group. Also scheduled were Al Sharpton, Conrad Muhammad, Jimmy Castor, Hannibal Lokumbe and Dick Gregory. The Jewish Defense Organization objected, organizing a call-in campaign to Warner Brothers and threatening a boycott. The Anti-Defamation League and the New York Post also objected to Cokely (as well as Sharpton and Muhammad) speaking at the event. Warner removed Cokely and Muhammad without issuing a press release.

This mondo-style documentary was shot by American filmmakers during a voyage to the African wilderness, and offers a glimpse of life in the vanishing primitive tribes. However, the film prefers to focus on the more exploitable elements of life among the indigenous cultures, such as a real life witch doctor performing brain surgery without anesthetic, group mating rituals, blood drinking, the slaughter of animals, human sacrifice and other examples of sex and violence in the "Dark Continent." Kwaheri was released in the United States by exploitation kingpin Kroger Babb, who billed it as "the film that stretches your eyes."

In Senegal, traditional wrestling has its roots in the culture and community of rural villages, particularly among the Serer people.

What began as tribal preparations for battle developed into village ritual and soon a form of entertainment. Men traditionally fought at village festivals after the harvest season as a way of attracting women, proving their virility and bringing honour to their communities.

But in the past 50 years, traditional Senegalese wrestling has grown exponentially to become a major national sport for both men and women - with celebrity fighters competing for big prize money, in large stadia and in front of thousands of fans.

"We can say that it is not just a sport," says sociologist Aly Tandian. "It has always been a socially stimulating factor in the Senegalese society."

"Today, there are villages that have become well known in all of Senegal because they have given birth to great wrestlers," he adds.

Today, the professional wrestlers at major events - like "Bombardier" and Eumeu Sene - are household names, winning over $80,000 a fight.

Up-and-coming fighters like "Lacrymogene", who we meet in this film, win more modest sums - from a few to a few hundred dollars. But the winnings mean that for some of the poorest Senegalese, wrestling can genuinely represent a means of clawing their way out of poverty.

Traditional wrestling is part of a wider phenomenon of combat sports in West Africa, including in countries like Gambia, Guinea and Gabon. In Senegal, the sport has attracted both genders, with the women's game now popular and well respected in its own right.

Olympic fighter Isabelle Sambou has won the African Championships nine times. Safiato Biola has competed in women's events in Europe and North Africa, and Anta Sambou says winning three golds at the 2017 Francophone Games has built her confidence and transformed her life.

"Wrestling is part of our culture," says Isabelle.

"If you wrestle when you're young, you can wrestle through your whole childhood, and as an adult you can still wrestle. Especially the girls, don't be afraid of a wrestler."

"I love my achievements so much that it has made me stronger," she says. "I also represent a force in my village, and that has made me reach the top."

In this film, we explore the popularity of traditional wrestling among Senegalese fighters and fans alike, men and women, urban and rural - from small village festivals to arena events in the capital, Dakar.

We look at wrestling as an expression of pride and cultural identity but also to show how sport - at even the lowest levels - can mean the difference for some between modest, local success and a miserable existence on the margins of society.

As Tandian says, "There are certain places, like the suburbs of Dakar, where young people only have two options: wrestling or leaving the country."

(14 Jan 2019) LEADIN:
Rammed earth is a construction method that has been around for millennia, but it's attracting renewed interest in countries like the USA and Australia.
In Ghana a construction company is returning to the technique of rammed earth building, promoting its eco-friendly and economical technique.
STORYLINE:
This construction worker is part of a team building an eco-friendly house near Ghana's capital city, Accra.
He is compressing a mixture of raw materials mostly sourced from within two kilometres.
When the temporary structure is later removed it will reveal a solid wall – the beginning of a house.
The technique is called rammed earth, as co-founder of Hive Earth Kwame de Heer explains.
"Rammed earth is a really old technique. Here in Ghana we have always built houses using mud, but here we have modernised it. We use a mixture of laterite which contains sand, a bit of silt, clay and some stones. We pour this into a temporary structure after being mixed. After pouring in eight inches we compress it to about four inches. We are mimicking a sedimentary rock, but speeding up the process. It's man-made stone."
About five percent of the raw materials used in this method requires imported cement, which is necessary as a stabiliser.
As well as being more eco-friendly, Hive Earth says it costs a third less than building with sandcrete blocks, commonly used in Ghana.
Foster Osae-Akonnor heads up Ghana's Green Building Council:
"Once you can get materials from the locality that you are working, then it helps to reduce the carbon footprint. In addition, comparing rammed earth to concrete, you save all the embodied energy that will be required in the manufacturing of cement."
Compared to other building materials, a very high amount of energy is consumed to produce cement. In addition cement is imported into Ghana.
Another of Hive Earth's rammed earth projects, in Accra, reveals its interesting aesthetic, which is the result of the ramming process.
The technique is well suited to the hot climate of Ghana as it keeps the room temperature cool, says co-owner of Hive Earth, British-Ghanaian entrepreneur Joelle Eyeson.
"Rammed earth is sound proof, it's termite proof, it's thermally insulative – so it regulates the internal room temperature. Because the walls are so thick it takes a while for the heat to penetrate through to the internal room. Our walls can be anything from 12 to 15 inches thick. It's earthquake resistant as well, due to the monolithic nature of the walls as compared to sandcrete blocks, because the walls are monolithic. With sandcrete blocks you have the mortar joints so it's easier for the wall to shake and become disinbursed, whereas with rammed earth it's just one straight monolithic wall. It's as strong as concrete as well – it can last for hundreds of years."
A long-standing example of rammed earth is the Great Wall of China.
Williams Nimailo from the Ghana Bureau of Standards helped draw up the country's new building code.
Allowance is made for rammed earth under both traditional and green building construction methods. Provision is made for modern materials such as clay-fired bricks or cement blocks.
Akosua Obeng is an architect who contracted Hive Earth to build the external walls of a luxury complex in Accra.
Obeng believes using rammed earth techniques in a high-end development will help to change perceptions about how earth materials can enhance design and architecture.
Hive Earth have produced eight rammed earth projects since starting up in 2016, and have many more projects planned in Ghana and regionally.
