Mfuko wa Umoja wa Mataifa wa maendeleo ya kilimo IFAD umefanikiwa kubadili maisha ya wananachi waliohisi wametengwa na dunia huko Bahia nchini Brazil ambao hata miundombinu ya kuwafikia ilikuwa shida lakini sasa wanauza bidhaa zao kwa njia ya mtandao. Wamewezaje? Taarifa iliyandaliwa na IFAD inasomwa studio na Evarist Mapesa wa Redio washirika SAUT FM ya Mwanza Tanzania. Brejo Dois Irmãos,ni kijiji kidogo kilichoko katika jimbo la Bahia kaskazini -Mashariki mwa Brazil, ilikufika katika Kijiji hicho inabidi kupita kwenye barabara ya mchanga yenye urefu wa kilometa 12 ambayo magari mengi hayawezi kufika huko. Jumla ya familia 200 zinazoishi Brejo zinaona kama zimetengwa na dunia kama anavyoeleza aliyekuwa rais wa jumiya hiyo Cosme Aves de Sousa “Changamoto kubwa ya kuishi Brejo nikwamba kuifikia jamii hii ni ngumu sana” Jamii hii imejificha na hazina ya thamani kubwa ya BURITI, mti wa mtenda ambao kwa lugha ya kwao ukimaanisha “Mti wa Uzima”. Mti huu ambao kila kitu chake kuanzia matawi mpaka matunda yana thamani kubwa kwakuwa na uwezo wa kutoa juisi,dawa na bidhaa mbalimbali lakini umekuwa na thamani ndogo kiuchumi kwakuwa imekuwa ngumu kutengeza bidhaa na kuuza. Hata hiyo hali hiyo imebadilika baada ya Mfuko wa Umoja wa Mataifa wa maendeleo ya kilimo, IFAD kufika katika kijiji hicho na kufadhili mradi ambao mbali na kuwapatia mafunzo pia uliwapatia vifaa vya kisasa kama anavyoeleza Sousa....“Mradi wa Pro-Semiarid umetufungulia milango, umetufundisha mbinu mbalimbali za mauzo, tumuuzie nani na kuongeze vipi dhamani kwenye bidhaa zetu” Kwakutumia mashine mpya, wanakijiji sasa wanaweka tunda la mtende kwenye mashine ambayo inaosha, kumenya na kusaga na kupata malighafi ambayo inatumika kwenye bidhaa za chakula na urembo, kazi hii iliyokuwa unachukua siku kadhaa sasa inafanyika kwa saa kadhaa. Rais wa sasa wa chama cha jamii hiyo Eliane Ribeiro anasema Usindikaji ilikuwa kazi ngumu, iliyotumia nguvu kazi kubwa na ngumu. Tulikuwa siku nzima tunakaa chini kwasababu hatukuwa na miundombinu ya kutufanya tusimame. Tulikuwa tunatoa maganda ya tunda moja baada ya jingine na kisha kwenda kuyaanika nje kwenye jua ili yakauke, kisha tunayaleta ndani tunayaosha na kwenda kuyaanika tena nje yakauke. Lakini sasa hii yote ni kazi moja tunayaweka kwenye mashine tuu na kazi yote inafanyika na kumalizika. Haya ni maendeleo makubwa sana kwetu.” Kupitia mradi huu wanakijiji wameanzisha kiwanda kinachochakata zaidi ya tani 40 za matunda ya mtende kwa mwaka. Upatikanaji wa mtandao wa intaneti ilikuwa vigumu sana hapo awali. Lakini mradi huu uliwezesha kuwaunganisha na mitandao ya kijamii na sasa wanauza bidhaa zao mtandaoni na kipato cha wananchi kimeongezeka kwa asilimia 30 mpaka 40. Mafanikio mengine yaliyopatikana ni wanawake kujumuisha katika vikao vya kufanya maamuzi na kuleta maendeleo na sasa wananchi hawa hawaoni tena kama wametengwa na dunia.

I had the opportunity to go to Argentina for a semester in school. It was a shocking experience to see local Indigenous individuals bowed down on their knees in the airport as if me and the other 2 black women were goddesses.It was incredible. However what was left out of my tour of South America was the slave trade. In fact, while studying international studies and visiting museums from Peru, Chile, and Argentina, slavery was not mentioned but glossed over. I was taught that Germans moved to Argentina during the Nazi War. What I recently learned was, the only black people in Argentina came from Bahia Brazil. This was untrue as well. There is a population of descendants of slaves that still exist in Argentina but they are being phased out. Many white immigrants were ushered to go to Argentina because of the fear of so many free black slaves walking around. What is disturbing is that the same programming happened in North America. They sadly share that there history is being erased. What is more alarming is that it is true. I missed out on these connections while visiting and it explains why people were so intrigued to see black people. Many immigrants come to America for access and some conform to the racist narrative that continues to tear a part communities. There are shared experiences from the descendants of slaves around the world, forever connecting us closer to our roots. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/hair-and-skin-alchemy/message

A specialist of lichens and other Alpine plants, Edward helped found the Natural History Society of Boston. As a professor at Amherst College, Edward spent his spare time botanizing in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. Today Tuckerman Ravine is named in honor of Edward Tuckerman. America owes a debt of gratitude to Edward for rescuing some of the Lewis and Clark specimens at an auction. It turns out that after the Lewis and Clark Expedition, a botanist named Frederic Pursh was hired by Meriwether Lewis to process the plants from their trip. After butting heads with his boss Benjamin Smith Barton and Meriwether’s apparent suicide, Frederick Pursh took the Lewis and Clark specimens and went to England. Once in England, Pursh reached out to botanists Sir James Edward Smith and Aylmer Lambert about putting together the Flora of North America. Ultimately, Aylmer became his botanical fairy godfather. Aylmer had a substantial personal botanical library, herbarium, and funding. Aylmer also forced Pursh to be productive. Frederick Pursh was kind of a rough and tough guy, and he was an alcoholic. Aylmer made a space for Frederick in the attic of his house. Once Aylmer got him up there, he would lock Frederick in for stretches at a time to keep him focused on the project. It was an extreme way to deal with Frederick’s demons, but it worked. It took Pursh two years to complete the Flora of North America, and the whole time he was racing against Thomas Nuttall, who was working on the same subject back in America. American botanists felt Frederick Pursh had pulled the rug out from under them when he took the expedition specimens to England. And this is where Edward Tuckerman enters the story. Somehow Edward learned that the Lewis and Clark specimens that Pursh had brought to England were going to auction. It turns out Aylmer had hung on to all of Pursh’s material, including the Lewis and Clark originals. In 1842, after Aylmer died, the Lewis and Clark specimens and papers were up for auction along as part of his estate. Somehow Edward realized the value and the important legacy of these botanical specimens and papers. After winning the items, Edward eventually donated all of the material to the Academy of Natural Sciences in Philadelphia.   December 7, 1822 Today is the birthday of the English-American botanist, nurseryman, landscape gardener, and landscape designer William Saunders. William served as the first horticulturist and superintendent of the experimental gardens at the newly created U.S. Department of Agriculture. During his professional career, William enjoyed many successes, but two stand out above the rest. First, William designed the Soldiers' National Cemetery at Gettysburg. On November 17, 1863, William visited the White House to show President Abraham Lincoln his design for the cemetery near the Gettysburg battlefield. William thoughtfully made sure that the Union army dead would be organized by state. A devoted botanist, William’s design was the setting for Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address, an ode to the fallen soldiers interred there. William’s second major accomplishment was introducing the seedless Navel Orange to California. After William had received cuttings from a navel orange tree in Bahia Brazil, he forwarded the cuttings to a friend named Eliza Tibbetts, who had recently settled in a town called Riverside, fifty-five miles east of Los Angeles. Eliza and her husband, Luther, planted the navel oranges in their front yard. They watered the trees with dishwater, and both of the trees flourished. In California, navel oranges are picked from October through the end of May. Navel oranges are known for their sweetness and the sweet little navel on the blossom end. A ripe navel orange should have thin, smooth skin with no soft spots. The orange should feel firm, and the riper the orange, the heavier it should feel. The sweetest time to eat navel oranges is after Thanksgiving; that’s when their flavor and color are at their peak. Because navel oranges are seedless, they can only be propagated by cutting. Over the years, Eliza and her husband took so many cuttings of the original two trees that they nearly killed them. In the early 1880s, they sold enough cuttings at a dollar apiece to make over $20,000 a year - that’s over half a million dollars by today’s standards. Ironically, in the 1930s, Brazil’s entire navel orange crop was destroyed by disease. In response, the USDA sent cuttings of Tibbett’s navel oranges to restart Brazil’s navel orange orchards. Today, every navel orange grown in the world is descended from the cuttings William Saunders sent Eliza Tibbetts. Today, one of the Tibbett’s navel orange trees still stands on the corner of Magnolia and Arlington avenues in Riverside. The tree has been a protected California Historic Landmark since 1932.   December 7, 1893  On this day, the Phipps Conservatory first opened to the public. A gift from Henry Phipps, Jr. to the City of Pittsburgh, Henry was a childhood friend and business partner of Andrew Carnegie. And gardeners who know their garden history probably already know that the Crystal Palace by Joseph Paxton inspired the 14-room glasshouse at the Phipps Conservatory. In 1893, as the Chicago World’s Fair ended, the plant material was fortuitously available to the highest bidder, and over 8,000 plants ended up on 15 train cars headed east to the Phipps. And that’s how the Phipp’s Conservatory ended up benefiting from impeccable timing; stocking their brand new space with incredible plants for a botanical bargain on a scale never seen before or since. In 2018, the Phipps Conservatory and botanical gardens celebrated their 125th Anniversary. Today the Phipps encompasses fifteen acres and includes 23 distinct gardens.   Unearthed Words There's a sound of a festive morrow, It rings with delight over the snow, Dispelling the shadows of sorrow With promise that makes the heart glow... An angel peeps in at the window, And smiles as he looketh around, And kisses the mistletoe berries That wave o'er the love-hallowed ground. — Henry Rowland Brown, English entomologist, and poet, Christmas Eve   Grow That Garden Library The Art of the Garden by Relais & Châteaux North America This book came out in 2018, and the subtitle is Landscapes, Interiors, Arrangements, and Recipes Inspired by Horticultural Splendors.

Remembered for her novels of frontier life like O Pioneers! and My Ántonia, Willa won a Pulitzer for her World War I novel called One of Ours. Here’s an excerpt that will delight the ears of gardeners from Cather’s My Antonia. The story’s narrator is Antonia’s friend Jim Burden. In this excerpt, Jim is lying on the ground in his grandmother’s garden as the warm sun shines down on him: The earth was warm under me, and warm as I crumbled it through my fingers. Queer little red bugs came out and moved in slow squadrons around me. Their backs were polished vermilion, with black spots. I kept as still as I could. Nothing happened. I did not expect anything to happen. I was something that lay under the sun and felt it, like the pumpkins, and I did not want to be anything more. I was entirely happy. Perhaps we feel like that when we die and become a part of something entire, whether it is sun and air, or goodness and knowledge. At any rate, that is happiness; to be dissolved into something complete and great. When it comes to one, it comes as naturally as sleep. — Willa Cather, American writer, My Antonia   Thanks for listening to The Daily Gardener.

New Books in Latin American Studies
Scott Ickes, “African-Brazilian Culture and Regional Identity in Bahia, Brazil” (University Press of Florida, 2013)

From the sounds of Samba to the spectacles of Carnival, Afro-Brazilian traditions are today seen as emblematic of Brazil and especially of Salvador de Bahia, the northeastern city where many Afro-Brazilian cultural traditions were first established. Salvador’s present status as the “Black Rome” of Brazil marks a shift from the early Twentieth Century, when Afro-Brazilian practices – particularly those associated with the religion Candomble – were denigrated as “primitive” and subject to repression in Bahia. Yet even as Afro-Brazilian culture is celebrated in Bahia and throughout Brazil, Afro-Brazilians themselves remain subject to discrimination, economic marginalization, and negative stereotypes, often directed at those same cultural traditions. In African-Brazilian Culture and Regional Identity in Bahia, Brazil(University Press of Florida, 2013), Scott Ickes explores the emergence of this paradoxical modern attitude towards Afro-Brazilian culture during and after the rule of Getulio Vargas (1930-1945). Ickes describes how during the Vargas era, Afro-Brazilians who sought greater acceptance for their practices found an newly-receptive audience among the white Brazilian elite: progressive intellectuals and journalists who valued Afro-Brazilian culture as folklore; and politicians, both national and regional, who sought the support of the Afro-Brazilian working class. Through government initiatives and the media, these elites elevated certain Afro-Brazilian practices – the martial art Capoeira, Samba music, and Candomble-influenced festival celebrations – and in doing so provided a public cultural and political forum for Afro-Brazilians involved in those practices. But as Ickes notes in every case, the new elite acceptance of Afro-Brazilian culture was limited and conditional. Only those Afro-Brazilian traditions deemed acceptable by elite intellectuals became accepted, and Afro-Brazilian culture never attained the prestige of European cultural traditions in Brazil. Thus, while the acceptance of Afro-Brazilian culture during the Vargas era had real benefits to Afro-Brazilians, it still allowed for Afro-Brazilians to remain marginalized into the modern day.

Simone shares her abortion experience in Salvador da Bahia, Brazil in 1981 where abortion was and still is prohibited by law. Currently, Brazilian law states that a pregnancy can only be terminated if it was a result of a rape, the child would not survive outside of the womb, or if the woman's health is in danger. It is estimated that 800,000 to 1 million people have illegal abortions in Brazil every year.
