I & I roots (Nos racines, nos cultures et traditions) extrait de l'album "I roots".
Avant même l'indépendance du Sénégal, les Sénégalais formaient un peuple uni et nul ne s'est jamais posé la question des différences de langues et de cultures. Récemment avec l'arrivée de nouveaux leaders, certains ont privilégié la division en utilisant les traditions pour semer le chaos. L'hospitalité fait partie de la culture sénégalaise et les a toujours sauvés. C'est à travers ce titre que Lëk Sèn met l'accent sur les valeurs de la Terranga à défendre et protéger.

Le Royaume-Uni s’embrase: “les flammes du conflit menacent nos régions”

Le premier ministre britannique Keir Starmer alerte : le conflit au Proche-Orient a “provoqué des étincelles dans nos propres communautés”.
Le dirigeant britannique dénonce l’augmentation des actes isla.mophobes et antisém.ites au Royaume-Uni depuis l’attaque du 7 octobre. “Il y a toujours des gens qui utilisent les conflits à l'étranger pour attiser les conflits ici. Depuis le 7 octobre, nous avons vu monter dans nos communautés une haine ignoble contre les juifs et les musulmans” , affirme-t-il dans une tribune du Sunday Times. Keir Starmer utilise la métaphore du feu pour souligner la gravité du phénomène sur le territoire britannique : “les flammes de ce conflit meurtrier menacent maintenant de consumer la région. Et les étincelles s'allument dans nos propres communautés, ici, chez nous”.
Dans cette tribune partagée la veille du premier anniversaire de l’attaque du Ha.mas sur le sol isréalien, le dirigeant travailliste demande à “toutes les parties d’agir avec retenue” et de “revenir à des solutions politiques, et non militaires”.

ABUJA, NIGERIA —
Nigerian authorities on Thursday placed key entry points into the country on high alert following the outbreak of the mpox virus in Africa. Authorities have also put nine Nigerian states, including the commercial hub, Lagos, and the capital, Abuja, under serious surveillance.
The Nigerian Center for Disease Control and Prevention told journalists that the action is in response to surging cases of the mpox virus in Africa and to intensify coordination to limit importation and spread of the virus.
This week, the Africa Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said it had recorded 2,863 confirmed cases of mpox, with 517 deaths, across 13 countries this year. It said there are about 17,000 suspected cases of mpox, formerly known as monkeypox, in total.
So far this year, Nigeria has recorded 39 cases of mpox, with no deaths.
Jide Idris, head of the Nigerian CDC, said it's best to be prepared.
"We're intensifying surveillance activities by tracking cases across Nigeria to swiftly detect and respond to any new cases,” he said. “Along this line, five designated international airports, some key seaports ... land and foot crossing borders have been placed in high alert. Declaration forms have been distributed to airlines where there's an ongoing outbreak of mpox in the last 90 days."
The Nigerian CDC said authorities are distributing diagnostic tools to states. They also have issued a public advisory on ways to prevent the spread of the mpox virus, including limiting contact with animals such as rodents and monkeys.
"We're also considering vaccination efforts for high-risk groups, as Nigeria expects to receive about 10,000 doses of the new vaccines that have just recently been approved for emergency use,” Idris said. “We're also meeting with collaborative agencies like Ministry of Environment and Agriculture for support and coordination efforts."
Authorities say a new strain of the virus, which is more deadly and more easily transmitted, is responsible for the recent spread. The strain was first discovered in the Democratic Republic of Congo and later reported in Kenya, Rwanda and Uganda, all previously unaffected nations.
On Tuesday, the Africa CDC declared mpox a public health emergency of international-continental concern.
Jean Kaseya, head of the Africa CDC, said, "This declaration is not merely a formality. It's a clarion call to action. It's a recognition that we can no longer afford to be reactive; we must be proactive and aggressive in our effort to contain and eliminate this threat."
Mpox is a viral disease that causes pus-filled lesions resembling rashes to appear on the skin.
In 2022, the World Health Organization declared it an international health emergency after cases were found in more than 70 countries.
Health analysts say the new strain is worrisome and will need a coordinated international response to control it and save lives.

56 sovereign states (54 of which are member states of the United Nations), two non-sovereign (dependent) territories of non-African sovereign states, and nine sub-national regions of non-African sovereign states. Malta and parts of France, Italy, Portugal, and Spain are located on the African continental plate, some considerably closer to the African mainland than the European mainland but, politically, are generally considered to be European by convention. Egypt, although extending into Asia through the Sinai Peninsula, is considered an African state.
50 States of the Union States of the U.S. There are fifty (50) states and Washington D.C.The last two states to join the Union were Alaska (49th) and Hawaii (50th)
The United States of America is a federal republic[1] consisting of 50 states, a federal district (Washington, D.C., the capital city of the United States), five major territories, and various minor islands.[2][3] Both the states and the United States as a whole are each sovereign jurisdictions.[4] The Tenth Amendment to the United States Constitution allows states to exercise all powers of government not delegated to the federal government. Each state has its own constitution and government, and all states and their residents are represented in the federal Congress, a bicameral legislature consisting of the Senate and the House of Representatives. Each state is represented by two senators, while representatives are distributed among the states in proportion to the most recent constitutionally mandated decennial census.[5] Additionally, each state is entitled to select a number of electors to vote in the Electoral College, the body that elects the president of the United States, equal to the total of representatives and senators in Congress from that state.[6] The federal district does not have representatives in the Senate, but has a non-voting delegate in the House, and it is also entitled to electors in the Electoral College. Congress can admit more states, but it cannot create a new state from territory of an existing state or merge two or more states into one without the consent of all states involved, and each new state is admitted on an equal footing with the existing states.[7]
The 51st state in American political discourse refers to the concept of granting statehood to one of the United States' territories, splitting one or more of the existing states up to form a new state, or granting statehood to the District of Columbia, thereby increasing the number of states in the Union (something that has not happened since Hawaii was admitted in 1959) from 50 to 51.
Voters in the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico have both voted for statehood in referenda.[1][2][3] As statehood candidates, their admission to the Union requires congressional approval.[4] American Samoa, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, and the United States Virgin Islands are other U.S. territories that could potentially become U.S. states.[5]
The phrase can be used in a positive sense, meaning that a region or territory is so aligned, supportive, and conducive with the United States, that it is like a U.S. state, or in a pejorative sense, meaning an area or region is under excessive American cultural or military influence or control. People who believe their local or national culture has become too Americanized sometimes use the term in reference to their own countries.[6] Before Alaska and Hawaii became states of the United States in 1959, the equivalent expression was "the 49th state".

Aya Nakamura: Paris Olympics culture row erupts as far right rages at French singer
13 March 2024

Aya Nakamura came to France as a child and mixes upbeat Afropop, R&B and Parisian street slang
She may be the most listened-to French female singer in the world, but is Aya Nakamura the right fit for the Paris Olympics?
President Emmanuel Macron's reported idea that the 28-year-old Franco-Malian singer perform at the opening ceremony in July has sparked an almighty row in France about identity and language.
On one side are ranged her supporters, who say there could be no better way of showcasing the vibrancy of modern-day Francophone culture - a culture that revels in its diversity.
On the other are the detractors, who say her music owes more to Africa and the United States than it does to France - and that her use of the French language only debases it.
The arguments, over an invitation that it is still only hypothetical, spilled onto social media, after her name was booed at an election rally of the far-right Reconquest party.
A small far-right group called Les Natifs (Natives) posted a picture of themselves online with a banner reading: "No way Aya. This is Paris, not the market at Bamako."
This prompted a response from the singer on Twitter/X: "You may be racist but you're not deaf. That's what hurts you. I'm the number one subject of state in debates ect (sic), but what do I owe you? Nothing."
Ministers, fellow musicians and the Olympics organisers have rushed to Nakamura's defence, accusing her opponents of rejecting her because of her foreign origin.

Nakamura was born in Bamako in 1995 under the name Aya Danioko, in a family of griots - traditional musicians and story-tellers. A few years later they came to the high-immigration Paris suburb of Aulnay-sous-Bois, where she went to school.
She changed her name to Nakamura after a character in the TV series Heroes, and in 2014 launched her career. With four albums to her name and a host of singles, she is regularly referred to as one of the most important figures on the French music scene.
Most importantly, Nakamura sells abroad. Where so many other French singers, of all kinds, have had to content themselves over the years with solely French-speaking audiences, Aya Nakamura has performed the rare feat of breaking through across the globe.
For President Macron, this is the strongest argument for inviting her to the Olympics.
According to the unconfirmed reports, she would sing a chanson of the late Édith Piaf - thus updating a French classic and showing it off before a modern, multi-ethnic worldwide audience.

Édith Piaf achieved international recognition for her trademark French chansons
Curiously though, a majority of the French public appears to disagree.
An Odoxa poll taken after the story broke found that, though Nakamura is extremely well-known with 80% recognition, only 30% of those asked had a good opinion of her.
Some 73% of those who knew her music said they did not like it, and a clear majority of 63% said she should not sing at the Olympics opening.
The most vocal criticism has come from Marion Maréchal of the Reconquest party, who said: "Like her or not, the fact is - this singer doesn't sing in French."
Interviewed on French television, Ms Maréchal said the decision to invite Nakamura, assuming there has been one, was political. "They have deliberately chosen to show a multicultural France … [But Nakamura] does not represent the French language."
In evidence she quoted the lyrics of Nakamura's most popular song Djadja, whose video has been watched online hundreds of millions of times.

Aya Nakamura is 28 and already has four albums to her name
About a man who spreads sexual lies about the singer, the song's chorus in French goes: "Y a pas moyen, Djadja. J'suis pas ta catin, Djadja, genre, en catchana baby, tu dead ça"
Which roughly translates as: "No way, liar-boy. I'm not your whore, like [sexual reference] baby, good job!"
Paul Verlaine it ain't, which is presumably why a majority of the French public appears to agree with Ms Maréchal that Nakamura would be unsuitable as a standard-bearer of French language and culture.
The counter-arguments are first that Nakamura would not be singing her own composition, but Édith Piaf.
But more important is the fact that Nakamura has been successful in France, a positive sign of integration, and she has influence with young people all over the world.
Her language may be innovative. But at its core it is, after all, French.
