Richard Wright, former EU ambassador to Moscow, and former director of UNRWA office in New York.

De Stokely Carmichael, figure des luttes noires du XXème siècle, on connaît surtout le combat aux États-Unis, comme dirigeant des Black Panther. On sait moins qu'en 1968, Carmichael a rejoint la Guinée avec son épouse, la chanteuse sud-africaine Miriam Makeba. Il est alors devenu un proche collaborateur du président ghanéen en exil Kwame Nkrumah et s'est engagé aux côtés de la révolution guinéenne. Bokar Ture, fils de Stokely Carmichael, a accordé un entretien à RFI : il raconte les années africaines de la vie de son père. RFI : Votre père a été un acteur important des luttes noires du XXème siècle. Aux États-Unis, où il a été l'un des responsables des Black Panther… mais aussi dans son parcours transatlantique puisqu'il vient s'installer en 1968 en Guinée. Parlez-nous d'abord de lui. D'où vient-il ? Comment est née cette conscience militante noire ?  Bokar Ture : Kwame Ture est né Stokely Carmichael à Trinidad et Tobago, connu aussi en français comme Trinité-et-Tobago, en 1941. Il immigre plus tard aux États-Unis pour retrouver sa mère -donc ma grand-mère- qui y était déjà installée quelques années plus tôt. Elle avait pu avoir sa nationalité américaine parce qu'elle était née à Panama. Comment a commencé cette conscience ? Déjà, il avait un penchant politique très tôt. Il y a une de ses tantes qui racontait une anecdote : quand il était jeune, il la poussait à aller voter pour un syndicaliste à l'île de Trinidad. Et au lycée, aux États-Unis, il fréquentait déjà des groupes gauchistes. Un de ses amis de classe était le fils du président du Parti communiste américain dans les années 1952. Et donc, très tôt, il a pu découvrir les discours marxistes. Et bien sûr, il vivait au sud du Bronx, à côté de Harlem. Et la 125e rue de Harlem est une rue reconnue pour des discours politiques de tout genre, de différents groupes.  Il a été l'un de ceux qui ont travaillé l'idée de Black Power. Il a même coécrit, en 1967 avec Charles Hamilton, un ouvrage qui le théorise, intitulé Black Power, the politics of Liberation in America.  Effectivement, le concept de Black Power existait avant. Il y avait un livre qui s'appelait Black Power par Richard Wright, qui a été écrit pendant les années 1950 et qui était un ouvrage dédié à Kwame Nkrumah. Mais personne n'a rendu l'idée de Black Power aussi populaire que Kwame Ture - Stokely Carmichael à l'époque. Notamment durant une marche contre la peur au sud des États-Unis, aux côtés de Martin Luther King, où il disait, plus ou moins : « On est fatigué de mendier notre liberté, comme on l'a fait ces dernières années dans les droits civiques. Maintenant, ce qu'on va faire, c'est de demander le Black Power », le pouvoir noir, qui était un appel à une autodétermination en termes de structures politiques et économiques pour les personnes noires descendantes d'africains aux États-Unis.  En 1968, votre père épouse une première femme, la chanteuse sud-africaine Miriam Makeba. Au-delà de la relation amoureuse qui s'est nouée entre eux, cette union reflète-t-elle aussi une pensée de votre père, de plus en plus tournée vers l'Afrique et vers le panafricanisme à cette époque ?  Ce n'est pas un tournant, c'est une continuité. Kwame Ture a toujours été Africain dans l'âme. Il vient d'un milieu où l'Afrique est centrale dans l'identité noire. Bien avant qu'il ne se marie avec Miriam Makeba. On le voit dans des photos au début des années 1960 avec ses camarades où il est en tenue africaine. Il se sentait toujours africain. Pour lui, être noir et africain, il ne voyait pas de distinction et toute sa vie était ainsi. Quand il a marié Tantie Miriam, comme je l'appelle, c'était juste une continuité. Après aussi, ma mère, Marlyatou Barry, qui était aussi une Guinéenne. C'était juste une continuité de sa façon de vivre.  Comment se fait concrètement la connexion entre votre père et le premier responsable guinéen, Ahmed Sékou Touré ? Stokely Carmichael, à l'époque, faisait une tournée mondiale et il a rencontré Shirley Graham Du Bois, qui était la veuve de W.E.B Du Bois, qui est aussi une légende de l'histoire de la lutte antiraciste et du développement du panafricanisme. Elle a invité Stokely Carmichael à venir en Guinée pour une conférence du Parti démocratique de Guinée pour rencontrer Kwame Nkrumah et Sékou Touré. Quand il est venu, il a rencontré les deux présidents. Il avait déjà beaucoup entendu parler de Kwame Nkrumah, parce que mon grand-père a travaillé dans un bateau un moment. Il est parti au Ghana et quand il est revenu à New York, il expliquait que c'était la première fois qu'il avait vu une nation noire, indépendante, avec sa propre armée, un président, etc. et il expliquait ceci à un jeune Stokely Carmichael. Cela a vraiment marqué sa pensée. Quelques années plus tard, ils se voient face à face avec Kwame Nkrumah. Après la conférence, en quittant la Guinée, il part dire au revoir à Sékou Touré, qui lui dit : « Écoute, mon fils. Ici, c'est chez toi, tu peux revenir quand tu veux. C'est ta maison. »  Il part voir Kwame Nkrumah qui lui dit « Écoute, moi, je cherche un secrétaire politique, donc si ça t'intéresse, tu es toujours le bienvenu. » Un an et demi plus tard, deux ans pratiquement, il était de retour avec sa nouvelle épouse, Miriam Makeba.  Qu'est ce qui fait qu'il vient s'installer à Conakry à cette époque ?  Pour lui, c'était le coin le plus révolutionnaire en Afrique. Lumumba a été assassiné très tôt donc il n'y avait plus le Congo. Après, il y a eu le coup d'État contre Kwame Nkrumah en 1966. Modibo Keïta en 1968. Quand lui est arrivé, le seul autre pays, c'était la Tanzanie, mais qui était beaucoup moins radicale. Donc il a choisi la Guinée. C'était le pays qui s'alignait le plus avec sa pensée du pouvoir noir à l'échelle mondiale.  Il est aussi menacé aux États-Unis. C'est aussi pour cela qu'il quitte les États-Unis ? De toute façon, mon père était prêt à se martyriser. Il a vu Malcolm X tué, il a vu Martin Luther King tué et les agences voulaient sa tête. Il a échappé à pas mal d'attentats. Mais ce n'était pas la raison centrale. Déjà, il y avait l'invitation. Ensuite, il ne voyait pas les États-Unis comme le centre de cette lutte à laquelle il a dédié sa vie. Il voyait l'Afrique comme étant une partie essentielle. Pour lui, en venant en Guinée, il rejoignait l'Afrique, il rejoignait la révolution africaine qui pouvait donner la dignité à tout le peuple noir à travers le monde.  Diriez-vous qu'il y a un vrai projet politique international derrière cette volonté de s'installer en Guinée ?  Il a toujours eu ce projet. Quand il parlait de Black Power, déjà, dans le livre dont vous avez parlé, il parlait aussi des colonies en Afrique. Dans Black Power, lui et Charles Hamilton faisaient le parallèle entre la situation que vivaient les Afro-Américains aux États-Unis et la situation que vivaient les Africains en Afrique et aux Caraïbes aussi. Il faisait ce parallèle. Dans sa tête, c'était quelque chose qui était un combat international dès le début.  Quelles sont les idées sur lesquelles votre père, Stokely Carmichael – Kwame Ture, une fois qu'il change de nom – et Ahmed Sékou Touré se retrouvaient ?  On parle de personnes qui avaient la même vision d'une Afrique unie, une Afrique libre où il n'y a pas d'inégalités. Ils étaient tous deux penchés vers des idées socialistes. Ils étaient totalement alignés idéologiquement. Sékou Touré était un de ses mentors, une de ces personnes qui l'ont formé dans cette idéologie.  Ils se retrouvent dans l'idée, qui est défendue par Ahmed Sékou Touré à l'époque, d'authenticité africaine ? À 100 %. Et il s'intègre à 100 %. Je peux vous dire que moi, par exemple, j'ai très peu de souvenirs de mon père en habit occidental. Il s'habillait en tenue africaine, cousue en Afrique. Il s'est enraciné dans la population africaine. Ce qui était quand même unique parce que tout le monde était tourné vers une façon de vivre occidentale. Et lui non, il voulait se réapproprier son héritage culturel.  Et la volonté de promouvoir les cultures africaines, de leur donner leur vraie place ? C'est exactement cela, revaloriser la culture africaine, la culture noire, se réapproprier celle-ci. Et ne pas avoir de complexes vis-à-vis des cultures européennes, dominantes et autres.  Depuis le début de cet entretien, on joue avec deux noms pour parler de votre père, Stokely Carmichael, Kwame Ture. À un moment donné de sa vie, il décide de passer du nom de Stokely Carmichael à celui de Kwame Ture. C'est une démarche qui dit aussi beaucoup de choses sur le lien qu'il a avec Kwame Nkrumah et Ahmed Sékou Touré.  Effectivement. Il y avait un précédent aux États-Unis. Il y avait pas mal d'Afro-Américains, notamment dans son milieu révolutionnaire, qui changeaient de nom. Notamment Malcolm X, Mohamed Ali. Bien sûr, le nom est inspiré de Kwame Nkrumah et de Sékou Touré. L'anecdote, c'est qu'il était en Tanzanie lors d'un entretien radio. Après l'entretien, apparemment, un vieil homme venu à pied d'un village lointain est venu le voir et lui a dit : « Écoute mon fils, j'ai vraiment aimé ton entretien. Mais il y a une chose : ton nom sonne un peu bizarre, un peu féminin, il faut le changer ». Il a alors pris le nom de Kwame Nkrumah et de Sékou Touré. Lorsqu'il venait l'annoncer à Sékou Touré et lui dire : « J'ai pris le prénom de Kwame », Sékou Touré lui a répondu : « C'est bien, parce qu'à chaque fois que nous avons des débats, tu prends toujours son parti. » Il lui a répondu : « Mais j'ai pris le nom Touré comme nom de famille. ». Ce qui était approprié, car c'étaient ses deux mentors. À lire aussiKwame Ture, le destin hors du commun d'un Black Panther parti s'installer en Guinée [1/2] Comment est-ce que vous décririez les liens qu'il entretenait avec Kwame Nkrumah et Ahmed Sékou Touré ? En Kwame Nkrumah, il voyait un symbole de cette lutte. Il était prêt à le suivre. Il a mené quelques opérations au Ghana pour essayer de voir s'il pouvait réinstaurer Kwame Nkrumah au pouvoir. Il était très proche de lui. Et Sékou Touré était comme un père pour lui. En 1970, votre père vit l'un des moments charnières de l'histoire de la Première République guinéenne, à savoir l'attaque contre Conakry du 22 novembre 1970. Savez-vous comment il a vécu ces journées ?  Je sais qu'il était un participant dans l'action de repousser les troupes portugaises. Il était armé ce jour et a dû utiliser son arme. Selon ce que j'ai appris, il était un des premiers à alerter les autorités, y compris le président, du fait qu'il y avait une attaque qui venait. Ca tirait sur sa case, donc il devait quitter sa maison. Lui et Miriam Makeba ont dû se réfugier quelque part d'autre où il l'a laissée et lui est ressorti pour aider à défendre la ville.  Cette opération conjointe de militaires portugais et de rebelles guinéens a conduit à la plus grande vague d'arrestations en Guinée de toute la Première République. La vie du pays va être rythmée pendant de longs mois par des confessions publiques de personnes présentées comme les complices d'un « complot impérialiste » aux ramifications tentaculaires. Comment est-ce que votre père se positionnait par rapport à cette thèse du complot permanent contre la Guinée ? Et plus généralement, quel regard portait-il sur l'État policier qu'était aussi devenu la Guinée de cette époque ?  C'est quelque chose de très complexe et malheureusement, la Guinée ne s'est toujours pas réconciliée avec ce passé et les positions sont assez ancrées. Maintenant, si on parle de Kwame Ture précisément, pour lui, c'était un régime panafricaniste, le seul régime panafricaniste radical. Et malgré toutes ses erreurs, c'était celui qui pouvait tenir jusqu'au bout cette conviction qu'il avait lui-même. Il était totalement d'accord avec le fait qu'il fallait conserver ce régime pour qu'il ne bascule pas dans un régime néocolonialiste.  À tout prix ? À tout prix.  En 1974, il y a un autre évènement important pour l'Afrique et plus généralement pour le monde noir, c'est le combat en Afrique, à Kinshasa, entre Mohamed Ali et George Foreman. Dans un livre de mémoires, votre père indique qu'il a été invité par Mohamed Ali lui-même à venir à Kinshasa pour le combat. Est-ce que vous savez ce que représentait cet affrontement pour votre père ?  Mohamed Ali était son ami. Il y avait ce symbole de Mohamed Ali qui représentait l'Africain fier et George Foreman qui était un peu l'opposé de cela. Mais après, il a rencontré George Foreman et il disait que George Foreman l'avait séduit avec son charme, l'a embrassé et tout. Je pense qu'au-delà du symbolique, mon père était beaucoup plus intéressé par ce qui se passait au Congo démocratique, c'est-à-dire le Zaïre à l'époque, et le fait que c'était sous le régime de Mobutu Sese Seko, auquel il était farouchement opposé par ce qu'il représentait en termes de corruption et d'alignement avec les puissances coloniales. Qui sont de manière générale les acteurs politiques qui fréquentaient le salon de votre père dans ces années 1970 et au début des années 1980, pendant la Première République en Guinée ? On parle d'un melting pot qui ne dit pas son nom. Que ce soit des artistes - Miriam Makeba et Nina Simone, qui était une de ses amies très proches - ou des activistes de partout dans le monde. Qui venaient à Conakry et qui venaient le rencontrer ? Qui venaient à Conakry ou qui y vivaient. Parce que vous savez qu'à une époque, Conakry était un centre du monde noir où on conciliait l'art, les mouvements de libération, etc. Il y avait un grand nombre de personnes qui y vivaient, comme Amilcar Cabral, comme Kwame Nkrumahn, avant même il y avait Félix-Roland Moumié du Cameroun, pour ce qui est de la politique. Concernant les arts et la littérature, il y avait Ousmane Sembène qui y vivait, il y avait Maryse Condé qui y vivait. C'était vraiment un centre… et il se retrouve chez lui avec toutes ces personnes, plus ou moins de différentes sphères. Moi, je peux raconter avoir vu des activistes exilés sud-africains, Tsietsi Mashinini, qui a commencé la révolte estudiantine de Soweto, qui était parmi d'autres exilés sud-africains. Il y avait beaucoup d'Afro-Américains, bien sûr, des Black Panthers exilés. Il y avait la diplomatie guinéenne, des diplomates de pays gauchistes et souverainistes, il y avait tout un monde. Mais aussi, il faut savoir que Kwame Ture était vraiment penché vers la masse, la masse populaire. Donc autour de tout ça, on voit un chef villageois qui est assis ou on voit la personne déshéritée du quartier qui est là, assise, qui peut recevoir un repas. Parce que notre maison était comme un centre communautaire pour la jeunesse du quartier. Il amenait tous les enfants du quartier à la plage chaque dimanche. Puis se retrouvait peut-être un mardi à saluer un chef d'État. Puis avait une conférence avec un groupe communautaire. Moi, j'ai vu tout cela dans cette maison. C'était quelque chose de magique. Il recevait où, justement ? Dans son salon, dans son bureau ? Y avait-il un rituel autour de la réception de ses amis politiques ? Déjà, il avait une véranda où il était assis… parce que c'était un bibliophile. Il lisait beaucoup, il écrivait beaucoup. Il ne lisait pas pour le plaisir, mais il lisait pour ses conférences. Après, il y a des gens qui venaient pour le rencontrer. Je sais qu'il y a eu Charles Taylor qui était venu de nulle part pour le rencontrer. C'était vraiment un melting pot.    À cette époque, votre père continue aussi ses voyages et ses tournées, il n'est pas tout le temps à Conakry ? Il était très organisé. Sur toutes ses photos, il écrivait les dates et les lieux. On se demande comment il pouvait parcourir toutes ces distances en si peu de temps. Un jour, on le voit au Connecticut. Le lendemain, on le voit à Paris, banni, chassé. En Angleterre, peut-être, d'où il est banni et chassé. Parce que c'était très compliqué pour lui d'avoir accès a beaucoup de pays. Après, on le voit en Californie... Il était partout. Sékou Touré disparaît en 1984. Mais votre père continue, lui, son engagement pour ses idées au sein du Parti démocratique de Guinée. Qu'est-ce qui a marqué ces années de militantisme politique sous Lansana Conté ? Le contexte a vraiment changé !  Et c'est là que l'on voit vraiment les convictions de l'homme. Parce que, du jour au lendemain, tout a changé. Il a été arrêté par le régime de Lansana Conté. Donc, il a perdu les privilèges qu'il avait, bien sûr, où il connaissait le président et était sous sa tutelle. Mais malgré cela, il a décidé de rester en Guinée. La moitié de sa vie guinéenne, quinze ans, s'est passée ainsi. Il a décidé malgré tout de rester en Guinée, d'être actif dans la vie politique guinéenne et la vie sociale de la Guinée.  … Et de rester fidèle à ses convictions.  Exactement. Vous êtes à l'époque enfant. Quel souvenir est-ce que vous gardez de ces années, de votre maison à Conakry, de ceux qui y passaient ? Quelle était l'ambiance ? Vous disiez tout à l'heure que tout le quartier se retrouvait chez vous…  C'est cela. Mon père était d'une gentillesse rare, d'un altruisme qu'on ne retrouve pas très souvent. Donc effectivement, c'était pour moi quelque chose de très formateur. Comment quelqu'un peut traiter un chef d'État avec le même respect qu'il traite la personne la plus déshéritée du quartier. Et toutes ces personnes pouvaient se retrouver chez lui, devant lui, avec le même respect, ou peut-être même le déshérité avec un peu plus d'amour.  Vous appelez régulièrement les Guinéens à se souvenir de votre père, Stokely Carmichael / Kwame Ture. Avez-vous le sentiment que son histoire a été oubliée en Guinée ?  Je parle de manière générale. Il y a une politique de mémoire en Guinée qui doit être améliorée. Stokely Carmichael est un pont unique entre l'Afrique et l'Amérique. On parle d'un personnage qui a passé la moitié de sa vie en Guinée. À ce stade, l'État guinéen n'a pas fait une seule initiative pour se réapproprier de l'héritage de cette personnalité.  Donc il y a un vrai chantier ? Il y a un chantier.  Une dernière question plus personnelle. Quel père a été Stokely Carmichael ? Quelle image retenez-vous de lui ?  Un père adorable, d'une gentillesse rarissime, qui m'a beaucoup appris, que j'ai profondément aimé. Quelqu'un qui était attaché à tout ce qui est beau dans le monde, à commencer par les enfants. ►A lire pour aller plus loin : BERTHO Elara, Un couple panafricain, Editions Rot-Bo-Krik, 2025 À (ré)écouterElara Bertho: «Replacer Conakry au centre des imaginaires, c'était un peu l'idée de cet ouvrage»

Nous y sommes....C'est le clap de fin de cette 11ème saison de l'émission consacrée aux musiques orientées rock progressif de votre radio préférée ! Merci au Kid pour la co-animation en direct de ce numéro et de m'accueillir d'ailleurs pour ses éphémérides hebdomadaires ! Vous pouvez d'ailleurs retrouver également ce redoutable duo dans le replay du dernier épisode pour la saison de STACK avec une excellente playlist concoctée par le Kid ! Mais revenons à AMAROK avec (pour commencer dans le désordre) les ultimes pépites françaises 2024/2025 suivantes :  Commençons par les sorties in extremis, notamment celle d'ESTHESIS sous forme d'un single d'excellente facture : "The Frame", histoire de patienter jusqu'au 03 octobre pour la sortie du 3ème album du groupe. Les toulousains avaient enchanté les soirées amarokiennes avec ses précédentes productions (notamment la dernière en 2022).  Le prochain et tant attendu opus aura pour titre "Out Of Step" et se veut, selon son fondateur Aurélien Goude : "le plus ambitieux, sombre, puissant et paradoxalement ambient (...) cinématique et hypnotique". Voilà une belle promesse et j'ai envie de dire : vivement la rentrée ! Ce 1er extrait en tout cas correspond bien au descriptif et bénéficie d'une production remarquable, va falloir sortir vos meilleurs casques les amis ! Grand est mon plaisir de retrouver l'un de mes groupes hexagonaux préférés !! Similitude de temporalité avec une autre formation hexagonale : EDENYA. J'ai découvert plus tardivement ce groupe fondé par le multi-instrumentiste Marco qui à l'instar de ses collègues toulousains, publie un 3ème album et nous fait patienter avec un nouveau single (un premier était diffusé il y a quelques semaines) : "Foreign Ground". Marqué par l'arrivée d'Ingrid Denis au chant (que j'avais découverte dans une autre formation française talentueuse : OSCIL ), Edenya sortira son album le 17 août, évènement que vous pourrez fêter avec eux le même jour à 17h30 sur la scène  du festival CRESCENDO à St Palais (17) . Pour avoir eu la chance d'écouter en avant-première ce nouvel album qui portera pour titre "The Secret Destination You Are Looking For", je ne peux que vous engager à le précommander les oreilles fermées ! On reconnait la "patte edenyenne" dans les compositions mais le groupe a su évoluer vers d'autres paysages sonores plus "heavy" mais toujours mélodique, bref vous m'en direz des nouvelles à la rentrée, décidément on va être gâtés !! Enfin, toujours pour patienter avant les sorties à venir,  un extrait de l'album live "Entre Acte" de ANGE. Si vous devez vous plaindre de l'existence d'une telle émission sur une radio hertzienne, c'est à la bande de Christian Décamps qu'il faut envoyer vos messages de récriminations ! Ce groupe qui navigue depuis plus de 55 ans a en effet été l'élément déclencheur de ce programme dans la tête de votre serviteur en 2014  à l'issue d'un concert dans la région ! Mais revenons à l'actu. Maintes fois repoussé (le groupe était des mois durant en tournée pour les adieux à la scène de son Capitaine qui tient toutefois toujours bon la barre en studio !), cet EP live était sorti en début d'années avec quelques inédits joués devant le public et à paraître sur le prochain album. Cet opus sortira finalement le 19 septembre. "Cunégonde", c'est son nom de baptême, sera ensuite défendu en tournée ! L'extrait de ce "mini live" de ce soir était un classique magistral associant les voix de Christian et de son fils Tristan Décamps, passage de relais émouvant avant cette nouvelle tournée "Quitter La Meute" pour la première fois dans l'Histoire du groupe... sans le Père... Autres nouveautés, celles-ci déjà disponibles, comme ce 3ème volet de la trilogie consacrée à la Mythologie grecque par l'excellent claviériste britannique RICHARD ANTHONY BEAN : "The Beauty, The Strength & The Divine". Un extrait dédié à la divinité de l'Amour, "EROS"...On en a tellement besoin ces temps-ci, alors que certains puissant préfèrent répandre leur guerre, une bonne façon, à défaut de ne pas oublier celles et ceux qui souffrent des conséquences, de penser à autre chose que cette lourde actualité...C'est l'été et quoi de mieux que ce titre très....caliente !! Découverte juste à la toute fin de saison, le premier album d'un groupe australien prometteur, "Thinking Without Language" par THE ORPHANED BEE. A l'instar du musicien britannique, il s'agit de musique essentiellement instrumentale mais ici plus rock avec toujours cette ambiance cinématique, arrangée avec des voix synthétiques telles que le vocodeur, le tout sans jamais sonner froid, au contraire, à découvrir !          Et puis une "fausse nouveauté".... Je m'explique. L'auteur de science-fiction et poète JULIAN JAY SAVARIN avait dans les 70's (en plus de ses talents d'écriture), celui d'être capable de composer et de jouer des claviers. Âgé aujourd'hui de 75 ans, notre homme avait commis deux albums concepts autour de son genre de prédilection (la science-fiction donc) :  l'un "A Time Before" en 1970 avec son groupe Julian's Treatment et le second "Waiters On The Dance", sous son propre nom en 1971. Celui-ci a d'ailleurs fait quelques fois l'objet de diffusion dans cette émission. Et puis il y a quelques semaines, je découvre "Beyond The Outer Mirr", nouvel album de l'écrivain. A la première écoute, je me dis que l'ingé-son est très bon, il a réussi à sonner très "analogique", très "rock prog 70's". Et pour cause... Si l'album est bien sorti il y a quelques semaines, il s'agit en réalité d'une suite à "Waiters..." enregistrée... en 1975 ! Et là je demande des comptes Messieurs Dames : qui a empêché la sortie d'un tel trésor ? Qui a osé interférer ? Bon, je me calme, voyons le verre à moitié plein (parce que  je m'échauffe !), mieux vaut tard que jamais...Je ne sais pas comment cet enregistrement a refait surface mais croyez-moi il faut l'écouter, il est riche, inventif,  audacieux, la voix de Lady Jo Meek rappelle ces vocalistes de l'époque (Sandy Denny, Maddy prior). INDISPENSABLE ! Souvenez-vous l'année dernière, dans ce même contexte de fin de saison, j'étais enthousiasmé par la sortie imminente du nouvel album de DAVID GILMOUR.  Un premier extrait diffusé et depuis la rentrée l'album "Luck And Strange" du guitariste de PINK FLOYD aura accompagné cette saison...La boucle est bouclée avec cet ultime extrait dans lequel on retrouve avec nostalgie les notes aériennes du regretté Richard Wright sur le titre éponyme. "Luck And Strange, a en effet été  enregistré à partir des bandes d'une jam session avec le claviériste flodyien.  Et puisque nous en sommes aux hommages (avant d'attaquer le désert) , souvenons nous de Garry Brooker disparu il y a 3 ans déjà, avec un extrait du premier album de PROCOL HARUM, sorti en 1967. On ne parlait pas encore de rock progressif, mais à l'instar de tous ces aventureux musiciens britanniques dans des styles aussi variés qu'audacieux, des Beatles à Pink Floyd, avec la période psychédélique et insouciante de la fin des 60's, Proco Harum aura ouvert la voie à notre musique de prédilection !   Et comme c'est la dernière de la saison, un bonus pour se dire "goodbye" :  APHRODITE'S CHILD et le titre de clôture de l'album "666" pour entamer un "break" de deux mois... Quelques derniers mots de remerciement :  à  SUN,  pour sa confiance renouvelée et son audace d'accueillir une émission sommes toutes à l'opposé du "mainstream" voire parfois complètement décalée (pour preuve cette émission so british du 15 mai avec des titres longs et présentée en anglais pas Ella !!). Merci à LOUIS DE NY, musicologue, écrivain, spécialiste du rock progressif italien (que j'avais reçu avec plaisir l'année dernière) et grâce à qui j'ai découvert modestement la richesse de la musique transalpine que j'essaye modestement mais régulièrement de vous faire partager à mon tour. Merci à Anne Claire de BAD DOG PROMOTIONS car il n'est pour ainsi dire pas une semaine sans que vous n'entendiez au moins un extrait d'album que m'envoie cette excellente agent de presse spécialisée dans le rock progressif ...Un mine de pépites ! Enfin merci à vous, et même toutes mes félicitations si vous m'avez lu jusqu'ici !! Sans personne pour écouter cette musique qui me passionne, Amarok ne servirait à rien.  J'espère encore cette saison vous avoir fait découvrir des albums, des artistes que vous aurez à votre tour adoptés, comme certain.es d'entre vous m'ont fait découvrir des coups de cœur que j'aie souvent relayés à l'antenne.  La saison 12 démarre le JEUDI 4 SEPTEMBRE 20h00 ! D'ici là passez un bel été, écoutez beaucoup de musique et prenez bien soins de vous  !  Thierry Joigny  Page facebook de l'émission : AMAROK44

In this special episode, Let's Be Having You is live from Soccer Aid with a very special guest - former Arsenal midfielder Jack Wilshere. Jack opens up about his early football journey, from idolising Paolo Di Canio and David Beckham as a youngster, to being scouted by a referee and signing with Arsenal at just nine years old - for a mere £1,500! He shares memories of his iconic performance in the victory over Barcelona, what it was like living with Wojciech Szczesny, and how he nearly botched his Goal of the Season strike against Norwich City. And yes - Jack also dishes on grabbing the mic to mock arch-rivals Tottenham during Arsenal's FA Cup victory parade.

Send us a textFormer label executive, guitarist and author Paul Rappaport joins Al to introduce him to Pink Floyd's 1994 album The Division Bell. Paul talks about how he became a part of the Pink Floyd “family” while working with them in his capacity as senior VP of rock promotion for Columbia Records. He shares his initial reactions to The Division Bell, which he had heard in bits and pieces while working on promotions for the album, and he explains why the album is still a favorite of his more than 30 years later. Paul also talks about how he came up with the idea for the Pink Floyd airship, which was a central part of the promotion plan for The Division Bell, and how he wound up playing guitar alongside David Gilmour during a Pink Floyd show in London. Finally, Paul discusses his book Gliders Over Hollywood, which recounts his experiences working with numerous revered rock artists over the course of his career.Gliders Over Hollywood is a highly entertaining read!

«En Amérique, nous sommes là depuis 3 siècles, rejetés dans le ghetto, mais nous sommes Américains !» revendiquait l'écrivain Richard Wright. Être des Américaines et des Américains comme les autres, est une aspiration partagée par toutes celles et ceux qui ont répondu à l'enquête historique menée par les deux sociologues africains américains St. Clair Drake et Horace R. Cayton dans les quartiers de Black Metropolis, au cœur du ghetto de la ville de Chicago. Une enquête devenue un classique de la socio-anthropologie urbaine, publiée aux États-Unis en 1945 et enfin disponible en français. Mais que raconte Black Metropolis de la réalité quotidienne des migrants noirs arrivés dans ce bastion industriel du nord ? Comment sont-ils venus alors qu'ils fuyaient le racisme officiel des États du sud ? Comment ont-ils survécu et lutté pour leurs droits dans le ghetto urbain de Chicago ? Et comment ont-ils organisé leur vie sociale et culturelle au rythme du blues de Chicago, genre musical qu'ils ont inventé ? Autant de questions à évoquer avec nos invitées Anne Raulin et Danièle Joly, directrices de la traduction en français de Black Metropolis, une ville dans la ville, Chicago, 1914-1945.À lire : Black Metropolis, une ville dans la ville, Chicago, 1914-1945, aux éditions de la MSH dans la collection Amérique(s).Une traduction dirigée par Anne Raulin, professeure émérite en Anthropologie à l'Université Paris Nanterre et spécialiste des minorités urbaines et des dynamiques mémorielles et Danièle Joly, sociologue, professeure émérite à l'Université de Warwick et spécialiste des questions d'intégration, de discrimination et d'asile en Europe. Playlist :  Duke Ellington, Caravan Mahalia Jackson, Precious Lord take my hand Jelly Roll Morton, Winin'boy blues Robert Johnson, Sweet home Chicago. Pour aller plus loin :À écouter aussi«Chicago - Juillet 1919, les premières émeutes raciales» Black Lives Matter, l'affaire Emmett Till

Reset chats with the unit head of the collection, Raquel Flores-Clemons, to learn about Harsh's life and legacy. For a full archive of Reset interviews, head over to wbez.org/reset.

Settling for your day to day routine is one of the best ways to ensure a boring unfulfilled life. When you feel unfulfilled and like everyday is filled with going through the motions, it becomes easy to turn to unhealthy, self-destructive habits. Without understanding why you feel this way, affairs, drugs, and other unhealthy addictions have the opportunity to creep in. Robert Greene is well known for books that have shaped culture, challenged beliefs and p*ssed quite a few people off. The Daily Laws, Mastery and The 48 Laws of Power are just a few of his bestselling books. Robert joins Tom in this epic conversation about how to look inward and uncover the root cause of the boredom that leaves you feeling like your just wasting life away. Fulfillment is key if you really want to change your life around. The path to fulfillment involves mastery and Robert breaks down our need for stress in order to get there.

"Wright was one of those people," said poet Amiri Baraka, "who made me conscious of the need to struggle." In this episode, Jacke takes a look at the life and works of Black American novelist and poet Richard Wright (1908-1960), author of Uncle Tom's Children, Native Son, Black Boy, and thousands of haiku. Born in Mississippi in desperate poverty to a schoolteacher mother and a sharecropper father (who were themselves the free children of formerly enslaved peoples), Wright had little formal education until he was 12, when he quickly demonstrated his intelligence and passion for reading. After high school, Wright traveled north to Chicago, where he set his most famous work, the fiery Dostoevskyan novel Native Son. Quickly achieving celebrity as one of America's most famous and successful Black writers, Wright moved to Paris, where he lived the rest of his life - and where he met a young James Baldwin, who accepted Wright's help before writing a pair of essays that strongly criticized Wright's fiction.

Faulkner James Baldwin, "Going to Meet the Man" 358 The Profound Wisdom of Black Life and Literature (with Farah Jasmine Griffin) The music in this episode is by Gabriel Ruiz-Bernal.
