The Western Church

Post under your class -- go beyond just asking a question -- try to answer it yourself. See what links you can find to share with the class. If you can't find an answer, still ask the question -- just explain that you could not find the answer.

Ethiopia Questions

Post two thought-provoking questions under your class on the right.

Africa Paper Topic

Post under your class -->

Here's a sample of what you should write:

I am interested in learning more about Ian Smith, the Prime Minister of Rhodesia from 1965-79 who apparently made it illegal to consider that Africans might have created the ruins at Great Zimbabwe. I think it's interesting to think about how the British turned over power to a small group of white people who continued to rule Rhodesia until 1980. I'm also interested in learning about how Robert Mugabe, the current leader of Zimbabwe, came to power. He's been in the news lately, with the contested elections in Zimbabwe, and I think that knowing more about Ian Smith would help me put Mugabe in context.
