Video: Watch Miss Lauryn Hill Gives An Amazing Performance In Ghana



Over the weekend, Lauryn Hill performed a concert in Accra as part of the Afrobeats Big Festival. Ms. Hill had only performed in Africa twice before her first ever Ghanaian show — Ethiopia in 2005 and a concert at 2012’s Cape Town Jazz Festival that was unfortunately marred by sound issues (ed: as some commenters have noted, she’s also previously performed in Rwanda and Senegal).

We came across some fan footage from Lauryn Hill’s recent show in Ghana and, though the audio’s not the best throughout, it’s pretty clear this one was a booming affair. Watch a 6-minute fan recap of Lauryn Hill’s Accra concert, which features her live renditions of Fugees classics “Ready Or Not” and “Killing Me Softly,” as well as Miseducation staples like “Everything Is Everything.” Watch the footage below via Swit Salone.

Watch Miss West Africa III - Banjul, Gambia 2013; The Crowning Of Vanny Reis

As we get ready to show to you, the amazing footage and crowning of our new beautiful queen, Miss West Africa IV, Maria Sawaneh who was crowned this year in Cape Verde, March 2013. We didn't think it would be appropriate to bring you that footage without showing to our dedicated fans the footage they missed and were dieing to see footage of the 2011 event.

This might seem like just another pageant, but it is a storm and whirlwind of great memories of some of the greatest people we've met in West Africa.









The delay of the footage came when Vox Africa UK had promised to showcase the event on TV in May 2012 with their recorded footage but never did nor outline why. Nevertheless we managed to get hold of more footage due to great contacts and videographers there on the night. We did our best to bring to you a nicely documentary of the event that took place and ensure you your countries and sheroes were well represented.

Congrats to every lady that took part, and congrats to all those that organised and help organised the event to make it a success. The road to discovering our Miss West Africa International queens has not been easy, it will never be. But every now and then, these beautiful pageants and their dedication to their country and heritage makes it worthwhile.

Thank You all. Video footage of Miss West Africa International IV (2013) coming up next on Miss West Africa TV. Exclusive footage of the exciting event that took place in Cape Verde 2013. Subscribe to our youtube channels and networks for instant updates.

The "REAL SIZE" Of AFRICA | La "Taille Réelle" de l'Afrique | O "Tamanho real" da ÁFRICA

English: This picture below shows the real size of Africa when calculated by land mass, which is very different from that we see in the usual maps around the world. The figures are correct. This drawing shows that if you take USA, some countries in Europe and in Asia, and a few more countries, they could all fit inside Africa. By land mass calculation. So here is the big question, why isn't this reflected on many maps?

PS: We hope to be corrected if wrong.



Francais: Cette image ci-dessous montre la taille réelle de l'Afrique lorsqu'elle est calculée par la masse terrestre, qui est très différent de celui que nous voyons dans les cartes habituelles à travers le monde. Les chiffres sont exacts. Ce dessin montre que si vous prenez Etats-Unis, certains pays en Europe et en Asie, et dans quelques pays de plus, ils pourraient tous tenir dans l'Afrique. Par calcul de la masse terrestre. Donc, voici la grande question, pourquoi n'est-ce pas réfléchi sur beaucoup de cartes?

Portugues: Esta foto abaixo mostra o tamanho real da África, quando calculado pela massa da terra, que é muito diferente do que vemos nos mapas habituais em todo o mundo. Os números estão corretos. Este desenho mostra que se você tomar EUA, alguns países da Europa e na Ásia, e mais alguns outros países, todos eles podem caber dentro da África. Ao cálculo da massa terrestre. Então aqui está a grande questão, porque não é isso refletiu em muitos mapas?

Haiti Is Part of Africa!! / Haïti fait partie de l'Afrique! / O Haiti é parte de África!



Okay, not exactly, or not yet. Haiti is 5000 or so miles away from Africa, but recently, The new Haitian president, Joseph Michel Martelly, made a bid to join the African Union. This will give them access to the trading relationship and acknowledgement as an African state from other colonies. It also means in times of need and financial backing, where other African countries may support one another, Haiti will also be considered in this relationship.

We are not sure how much help the African Union will be of to Haiti as we do not have an accurate account of the African Unions activities. However, what we know is this will be a very significant act if this bid is to become a reality.

The History
Haiti became the first free black republic in 1804, when a group of enslaved African men overtook the French military to earn the nation’s freedom. At the time where the French had the strongest army throughout Europe. Haiti has been known for their strong resistance against colonial and neo colonial forces. And till today they are still battling the occupation of the UN (known as Munistah) with many protests around the world.



18 Year Old Boy Raped by UN Peace Keepers?
Tension has been growing between Haitians and the UN "peace keeping" group Minustah, with various rumours of their human rights abuse and rape claims. However, this was brought to the forefront when a video showing the alleged sexual assault of a young 18 year old boy in Haiti by Minustah (UN) peacekeeping soldiers (see video). Many Haitians also believe the UN and France is also responsible for the spread of Cholera that expanded ever since the UN occupation began. (see various videos on youtube)



Similarities
Haiti's culture, interms of food, lifestyle and clothes are very similar to that of African people. There is no saying if this entry to join the African Union will be granted, but if so, hopefully Africans in Africa will begin to identify with the amazing culture and history of the Haitian world.





Francais:
Okay, pas exactement, ou pas encore. Haïti est de 5000 ou si miles de l'Afrique, mais récemment, le nouveau président haïtien, Joseph Michel Martelly, a fait une demande d'adhésion à l'Union africaine. Cela leur donnera accès à la relation commerciale et la reconnaissance comme un Etat africain à partir d'autres colonies. Cela signifie également en cas de besoin et le soutien financier, où d'autres pays africains peuvent se soutenir mutuellement, Haïti sera également pris en compte dans cette relation.

Nous ne savons pas combien d'aide de l'Union africaine sera de à Haïti que nous n'avons pas un compte exact des activités syndicats africains. Cependant, ce que nous savons est que ce sera un acte très important si cette offre est de devenir une réalité.



l'histoire
Haïti est devenu la première république noire libre en 1804, quand un groupe d'esclaves a dépassé l'armée française pour gagner la liberté de la nation. Au moment où les Français avaient la plus forte armée dans toute l'Europe. Haïti a été connus pour leur forte résistance contre les forces coloniales et néo coloniales. Et jusqu'à aujourd'hui, ils sont encore aux prises avec l'occupation de l'ONU (connue sous le nom MINUSTAH) avec de nombreuses protestations à travers le monde.

18 ans garçon violées par des gardiens de la paix de l'ONU?
La tension n'a cessé de croître entre les Haïtiens et les Nations unies "maintien de la paix" groupe de la Minustah, avec des rumeurs diverses de leur abus des droits humains et les revendications de viol. Cependant, cela a été porté à l'avant-garde d'une vidéo montrant l'agression sexuelle présumée d'un jeune garçon de 18 ans en Haïti par des soldats de maintien de la Minustah (ONU) (voir le clip édité). De nombreux Haïtiens croient aussi l'ONU et la France est également responsable de la propagation du choléra, qui a élargi depuis l'occupation de l'ONU a commencé. (voir différentes vidéos sur youtube)

similitudes
La culture d'Haïti, interms de nourriture, mode de vie et les vêtements sont très semblable à celle des peuples africains. Il n'est dit si cette entrée pour rejoindre l'Union africaine sera accordé, mais si c'est le cas, nous l'espérons Africains en Afrique va commencer à s'identifier à la culture étonnante et de l'histoire du monde haïtien.









Portugues:
Ok, não exatamente, ou ainda não. Haiti é de 5000 ou assim milhas de distância da África, mas recentemente, o novo presidente do Haiti, Joseph Michel Martelly, fez uma oferta para se juntar à União Africano. Isso lhes dará acesso à relação comercial e reconhecimento como um Estado Africano de outras colônias. Significa, também, em tempos de necessidade e apoio financeiro, em que outros países africanos podem apoiar um ao outro, o Haiti também serão consideradas nesta relação.

Não temos certeza quanto ajudar a União Africano será de ao Haiti como não temos um relato preciso das atividades africanos Sindicatos. No entanto, o que sabemos é que será um ato muito significativo se esse lance é se tornar uma realidade.

a História
Haiti se tornou a primeira república negra livre em 1804, quando um grupo de escravos ultrapassou o exército francês a ganhar a liberdade da nação. No momento em que os franceses tinham o exército mais forte em toda a Europa. Haiti tem sido conhecida por sua forte resistência contra as forças coloniais e neo coloniais. E até hoje eles ainda estão lutando contra a ocupação das Nações Unidas (conhecido como Munistah), com muitos protestos ao redor do mundo.

18 ano velho menino estuprada por manutenção da paz da ONU?
A tensão vem crescendo entre os haitianos e da ONU "manutenção da paz" grupo Minustah, com vários rumores de seu abuso de direitos humanos e as reivindicações de estupro. No entanto, este foi trazido à tona quando um vídeo mostrando a suposta agressão sexual de um menino de 18 anos no Haiti por soldados da Minustah (ONU) de manutenção da paz (veja clipe editado). Muitos haitianos também acreditam que a ONU ea França também é responsável pela propagação da cólera que se expandiu desde a ocupação da ONU começou. (ver vários vídeos no youtube)

semelhanças
Cultura do Haiti, interms do estilo de vida, comida e roupas são muito semelhante ao dos povos africanos. Não há como dizer se essa entrada para aderir à União Africano será concedido, mas se assim for, espero que os africanos na África começará a se identificar com a cultura incrível e história do mundo do Haiti.
