The Real Mobile Phone Wars - DRC, 10 October 2001

As the high tech age takes over more and more of our lives manufacturers will go to any lengths to get the sometimes scarce minerals that go into them. Tantalum is one such rare ingredient. Few of us know that in the middle of Africa much human suffering is created in the pursuit of it.

Coltan is a valuable metal because it can be processed and manufactured into a component called a capacitor, which sits on the circuit board of mobile phone and other portable electronic devices. The Democratic Republic of Congo is the world's second biggest supplier of coltan (after Australia), supplying an estimated 18 per cent of the world market. The trouble with coltan from Congo is that it is fuelling the war there. Various rebel groups and militias are mining, stealing, taxing and/or smuggling coltan to raise funds for their war effort. A recent UN report has declared the trade in coltan from Congo illegal because the legitimate and internationally recognised Government of the Democratic Republic of Congo does not license it. Instead the trade of coltan is helping to destabilise that government. Our reporter, JULIANA RUHFUS, travels via Uganda across the Kasindi border crossing, to Congo, her quest to find the source of coltan. Her often dangerous journey takes her via coltan traders, miners and warlords including the Mayi Mayi.

Makandal's revolution is responsible for ending worldwide slavery according to the author. See www.macandal.org. Davis traveled to Haiti, the DR, and France in 1996-7 for this research. He is the only Westerner ever allowed to see where Makandal lived and began his revolution. He interviewed many Voodoo Houngans, academics, and story keepers in Haiti for his ebook "Black Millennium" and this original documentary. U.C. Berkeley supplied grants for travel & production.

Uhem Mesut, le renouvellement des naissances: http://uhem-mesut.com/

Dr. Jemima Pierre, born in Gros Morne, Haiti and raised in Miami, Florida, speaks to The Other Narrative about why Haiti is paying a price - 220 years after it yanked Independence from the jaws of colonizers. Dr. Pierre speaks about the resilience of Haitians and their struggle against imperialism - in all of its iterations - and the fact that Haiti's emancipation is part and parcel of the global African/Black emancipation.

Dr. Pierre also speaks about the importance of Haiti to US imperialism; the way the West manufactures narratives; racism in international structures; regional neocolonial countries in service of imperialism; and so much more.

Dr. Jemima Pierre is Professor of Global Race in the Institute of Race, Gender, Sexuality and Social Justice (GRSJ) at the University of British Columbia and a research associate at the Centre for the Study of Race, Gender and Class at the University of Johannesburg.

Trained as a sociocultural anthropologist in the African Diaspora Program at the University of Texas, Austin, her research and teaching engages with Africa and the African diaspora across three broad areas of inquiry: 1) the relationship of political economy to race, as articulated through capitalism, white supremacy, and imperialism; 2) migration, transnationalism, and diaspora; and 3) the ethics and politics of western knowledge production and disciplinary formation.

Dr. Pierre has published widely; her essays and articles have examined the racial history of the discipline of anthropology, race and colonialism, theories of the African diaspora, the cultural politics of racial formation in Africa, Western resource extraction in Africa, and the history and politics of U.S. imperialism in Haiti and the Caribbean.

She is also the author of The Predicament of Blackness: Postcolonial Ghana and the Politics of Race. The Predicament of Blackness was winner of the 2014 Elliot Skinner Book Award in Africanist Anthropology and long listed for the 2013 OCM – BOCAS Literary Prize.

Her next book, titled Of Natives, Ethnics, and True Negroes: A Counter-History of Anthropology, will be published in 2024.
