Een kwart eeuw later is het op het hele eiland gedaan met de slavernij. Net als met de onafhankelijkheid van het sultanaat. Zanzibar wordt een Brits protectoraat, bekrachtigd door de kortste oorlog in de geschiedenis – nog geen drie kwartier. Einde van de slavernij, begin van de onderwerping. Het westerse imperialisme is, heel paradoxaal, zowel humanitair, commercieel als agressief. De Zanzibardriehoek beschrijft de laatste episode in de slavernijgeschiedenis vanuit de direct betrokkenen: de zendeling-ontdekkingsreiziger David Livingstone, bijgestaan door bevrijde slaven als James Chuma en gevolgd door avonturiers als Henry Stanley. Sultan Barghash en slavenhandelaar Tippu Tip verzetten zich, maar moeten buigen voor één man, de selfmade diplomaat John Kirk. Uiteindelijk is ook Kirk zelf niet meer dan een trekpop van de werkelijke hoofdrolspelers in de Europese regeringscentra. De Zanzibardriehoek gaat net als De Boerenoorlog over goede bedoelingen, kwade opzet en de tragiek van Afrika, het slaafgemaakte continent.

Henry Stanley was a soldier-turned-journalist-turned explorer who charged wide swaths of the Congo. He famously searched for the source of the Nile, commanded the Emin Pasha Relief Expedition (a major expedition into the interior of Africa), and, most famously, searched and found missionary and fellow explorer David Livingstone.” He was knighted in 1899He led major expeditions there and wrote much of the early scientific literature of Sub-Saharan Africa and contributed to nearly every field of inquiry in the subject area. His accounts remained the standard work in botany, biology, zoology, geography, and anthropology of the regions treated for decades. One English writer related of his discoveries, “The fact is now generally recognized that Stanley, after Livingstone, gave greater impulse than any other man to the movement which resulted in the rapid exploration of most parts of unknown Africa.” But Stanley's legacy has its black marks, though. He was a product of nineteenth-century colonialism and the European Scramble for Africa, and as such was used by monarchs to extend their landholdings on the continent.

Henry Morton Stanley war Journalist und Afrikaforscher und wurde berühmt, indem er den verschollenen Missionar David Livingstone in Afrika aufspürte.
Em 1885, uma conferência em Berlim entre as principais potências europeias acordaram que todo o continente africano menos a Libéria (independente dos EUA em 1847) e a Etiópia tornariam-se protetorados europeus. A reunião, sem nenhum africano presente, também reconheceu uma área de 2.345.000 km² no centro africano como propriedade do rei belga, Leopoldo II. O Estado Livre do Congo, era uma ambição do rei em realizar um trabalho missionário através de sua pessoas física, com o argumento de combater a escravidão entre outros africanos, assim como o canibalismo e o paganismo. Contudo, a ambição de Leopoldo era econômica e sua instituição filantrópica era apenas uma fachada para a Comunidade Internacional. Desde pequeno, o rei tinha fascínio em colônias e sonhava em ter um território lucrativo. Após estabelecer-se na região e ignorar totalmente a existência de reinos e povos que já existiam no atual Congo - mais de 30 milhões de pessoas - Leopoldo criou seu exército privado, a Force Publique, para suprimir revoltas, estabelecendo uma cota de extração de borracha e marfim que os congolenses eram obrigados a cumprir. Caso falhassem em cumprir suas cotas, os congoleses tinham suas mãos cortadas como sinal de punição. O trabalho forçado de Leopoldo estendia-se a todos africanos no Estado Livre do Congo, assim como crianças, mulheres e idosos, muitas vezes captados à força para servir na Force Publique. Através de uma campanha de mídia falsa que censurava todo tipo de denúncia feita na região, Leopoldo moldou uma imagem de filantropo, desmerecendo todo o trabalho de jornalistas, militares e missionários que denunciavam suas atrocidades. O Estado Livre do Congo foi propriedade privada do rei por quase 30 anos, enriquecendo o rei belga que promoveu dezenas de obras públicas na Bélgica como parques, prédios, museus, palácios pessoais e até mesmo uma Exposição Universal em 1897. Em 1900, jornalistas formaram a Associação de Reforma do Congo que tinha ambição de encerrar as atrocidades de Leopoldo. A associação promoveu palestras, comícios, distribuiu panfletos, revistas e fotografias sobre a causa. A associação teve a participação de pessoas como notáveis da época Mark Twain, Arthur Conan Doyle (criador do Sherlock Holmes) Booker T. Washington e Bertrand Russell. Após 6 anos de atividade, a Associação tornou a propriedade de Leopoldo indefensável, obrigando o governo belga a anexar o território como colônia, retirando-a como propriedade privada do rei. Contudo, Leopoldo e todos os envolvidos nas atrocidades no Congo, nunca foram julgados e sequer multados, muito pelo contrário. Henry Stanley, que comandou a Force Publique, foi promovido para o Parlamento Britânico de 1900-1905.

One of the most controversial subjects within the Body of Christ is the Holy Spirit Baptism. John the Baptist declared there was one mightier than him, who was coming, as he was baptizing in the Jordan river for the remission of sins. He declared the COMING ONE, would baptize you with the Holy Spirit and Fire. Before Jesus ascension on High He told His disciples to gather in Jerusalem and wait for the promise of the Father. This coming promise was the Holy Spirit that John the Baptist began to declare at his baptism. Luke 24:46-48 “And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day: 47 And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem. 48 And ye are witnesses of these things. 49 And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high.” kjv This experience was described by Jesus in Luke as being endued with power from on High, KJV version. The word endued means to clothe. Jesus was saying that the believers would be clothed with power from on high. This is Heavenly power or the power of Jesus Christ himself that is clothing the believer. The word power is means force, specifically miraculous power. There are teachings in the Church that somehow this power left after the Apostles. However, notice closely what Peter declares as recorded in the Book of Acts. Acts 2:38&39 “And Peter said unto them, Repent ye, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ unto the remission of your sins; and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 39 For to you is the promise, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call unto him.” This promise of the Holy Spirit was not only for the Apostles and those of that day, but for ALL that are called. God our Father delights to give us His Spirit. The miraculous of God should not be a once and a while occurrence. The miraculous of God should operate in our midst, as He is in our midst. While Jesus walked the earth there was the manifest presence of God in operation. What we must hear is that the same Spirit that was in Christ is NOW in operation within the Church His Body. Jesus even declared that the same works He had done would be also done through the believers, and greater works. This is what Jesus said, John 14:12. The Spirit is the enablement of these works. In fact, it is the works of the Spirit. When the lame man was healed at the gate of Beautiful, Peter asked why do you look on us as if we healed the man? It was through faith in the name of Jesus Christ that this lame man was healed. The miraculous was manifested by the Holy Spirit of God through the believers. The Baptism of the Holy Spirit was of utmost importance of the Apostles. When those in Samaria who received the word of God, and were baptized in water, the Apostles Peter and John went down among them that they might also receive the Holy Spirit. Acts 8:12-14 “But when they believed Philip preaching good tidings concerning the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women. 13 And Simon also himself believed: and being baptized, he continued with Philip; and beholding signs and great miracles wrought, he was amazed. 14 Now when the apostles that were at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent unto them Peter and John: 15 who, when they were come down, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Spirit:” This in like manner should be of utmost importance to us. We should desire that all who believe and receive the word of God, should be baptized in the Spirit. All should be clothed with God’s miraculous power to be a witness of Jesus Christ our Lord. Please enjoy this teaching on the Holy Spirit by Pastor Henry Stanley. May it touch your hearts and cause you to seek a greater relationship with the Lord Jesus.

Been crazy busy will come out within week new epsiode july 24 World cup has got in the way but you should know USA played really well, game of the tournament New episode June 24th Robert Falcon Scott, CVO (6 June 1868 – c. 29 March 1912) was a Royal Navyofficer and explorer who led two expeditions to the Antarctic regions: theDiscovery Expedition, 1901–04, and the ill-fated Terra Nova Expedition, 1910–13. Scott, writing his journal in the Cape Evans hut, winter 19112014-06-08 During the research for his dual biography of Scott and Roald Amundsen,[9] polar historian Roland Huntford investigated a possible scandal in Scott's early naval career, related to the period 1889–90 when Scott was a lieutenant on HMS Amphion. According to Huntford, Scott "disappears from naval records" for eight months, from mid-August 1889 until 26 March 1890. Huntford hints at involvement with a married American woman, of cover-up, and protection by senior officers. Biographer David Crane reduces the missing period to eleven weeks, Popular hero[edit] Discovery returned to Britain in September 1904. The expedition had caught the public imagination, and Scott became a popular hero. He was awarded a cluster of honours and medals, including many from overseas, and was promoted to the rank of captain.[35] He was invited to Balmoral Castle, where King Edward VII promoted him a Commander of the Royal Victorian Order (CVO).[36] The expedition had both scientific and exploration objectives; the latter included a long journey south, in the direction of the South Pole. This march, undertaken by Scott,Ernest Shackleton and Edward Wilson, took them to a latitude of 82° 17′ S, about 530 miles (850 km) from the pole. A harrowing return journey brought about Shackleton's physical collapse and his early departure from the expedition Dispute with Shackleton[edit] By early 1906, Scott had sounded out the RGS about the possible funding of a future Antarctic expedition.[39] It was therefore unwelcome news to him that Ernest Shackleton had announced his own plans to travel to Discovery's old McMurdo Sound base and launch a bid for the South Pole from there.[40] Scott claimed, in the first of a series of letters to Shackleton, that the area around McMurdo was his own "field of work" to which he had prior rights until he chose to give them up, and that Shackleton should therefore work from an entirely different area. Scott's group took this photograph of themselves using a string to operate the shutter on 17 January 1912, the day after they discovered Amundsen had reached the pole first.

His fame as an explorer helped drive forward the obsession with discovering the sources of the River Nile Although Livingstone is known as "Africa's greatest missionary,” he is only recorded as having converted one African: Sechele, who was the chief of the Kwena people of Botswana. Kwena Livingstone's heart was buried under a Mvula tree near the spot where he died, now the site of the Livingstone Memorial.[29]His body together with his journal was carried over a thousand miles by his loyal attendants Chuma and Susi to the coast toBagamoyo, and was returned to Britain for burial.

James Naughtie and a group of readers talk to journalist Tim Butcher about his bestselling travel book Blood River. When Tim Butcher was appointed the Daily Telegraph's correspondent to South Africa in 2000, he became obsessed with the Democratic Republic of Congo. This vast country dominated a map of Africa on his office wall and he began to plan a journey following in the footsteps of a famous predecessor - Henry Stanley. Stanley, of Dr Livingstone renown, had travelled along the route of the River Congo in 1876-77 whilst Africa correspondent for the same newspaper. Tim Butcher says in Bookclub that he lost all rationality - people who knew the country well told him his proposed trip was suicidal. The DR Congo stretches the same distance as Paris to Moscow and is one of Africa's most dangerous countries. Although it has immense economic resources, the DR Congo has been at the centre of what could be termed Africa's world war, and this has left it in the grip of a humanitarian crisis. Part adventure story, part travelogue and part history, Blood River tells the account of Tim's own journey along the river in 2004. We hear about the hardships and generosity of the people he met, as well as the fear and the practical difficulties of travelling in a country that has been ravaged by war and neglected for so long. A group of readers quiz Tim about his experience, and James Naughtie chairs the programme. March's Bookclub title: Refugee Boy by Benjamin Zephaniah Producer: Dymphna Flynn.
