Q9

An important part of college, and any content creation, is organizing and storing your information. When you write an academic paper, part of what you will do is use other people's research to support your assertions. When you do this, you have to properly quote and cite this information (or paraphrase with citation), and then reference this information. When in college, the typical citation methods include APA, MLA, and Chicago. In addition, there are others such as AP, AMA, Bluebook, and IEEE.

Watch this short news clip about the Kamba. Take special note about the preservation of their cultural practices and traditions.

 

Paso 3 : Watch this video about the Manjani

The Imani Dance and Drum Company perform the Manjani, a West African dance that celebrates an important event such as the harvest (as in this performance), a wedding, or a naming ceremony. This performance segment focuses on the musicians as much as the dancers, showing the important relationship between the two groups.

Kamba Kua, which in Guarani, the native language of Paraguay, means "place of the black." Think about the origin of the Kamba Kua tribes and some of the ways in which the preservation of their culture and beliefs continue on today. Reflect on the following points:

Reflect :

1. What is your initial reaction? Why?

2. What interests you about it?

3. What role does music and/or dance play in your family or culture?

Analyze :

1. African music and dance have had a far-reaching influence on styles of music and dance popular today. Do you see similarities between the Kamba Kua and Manjani?

2. Yaya Diallo described many different roles that dancing plays in West Africa. How do you see this at work in the video you watched about the Kambua Cua? 

3. Respond to at least two (2) of your classmates (minimum of 50 words each response). 

Your thoughtful, personal reflection and analysis should be written at a college level with a a minimum of 80-100 words. If you seek outside sources, please cite them. Using ChatGPT and other large language model AI programs is NOT permitted for this assignment.
