Lectura de hoy
Hoy comencé la lectura del libro A History of Modern Sudan del historiador Robert O. Collins. Es impresionante saber la cantidad de pueblos que habitan lo que hasta hace dos años era una sola nación. Mucho más interesante es saber que para poder entender la historia de este país/paises hay que analizar lo que ocurría en los paises vecinos y hasta en la misma Europa.

Tombouctou Manuscripts
http://www.tombouctoumanuscripts.org/
Timbuktu has often been invoked as a symbol of the most distant place on Earth, as a mysterious and exotic, but unreachable, attraction. Yet, it is a real city with a history.
Indeed, it has a rich and diverse heritage and a fascinating past. The city and its desert environs are an archive of handwritten texts in Arabic and in African languages in the Arabic script, produced between the 13th and the 20th centuries. The manuscript libraries of Timbuktu are significant repositories of scholarly production in West Africa and the Sahara. Given the large number of manuscript collections it is surprising that Timbuktu as an archive remains largely unknown and under-used. Timbuktu’s manuscript collections deserve close study. It is a significant starting-point for reflecting on Africa’s written traditions.
Recognising its significance as a site of African architecture and of its scholarly past, Unesco declared Timbuktu a World Heritage Site in 1990.
A South Africa-Mali Timbuktu Manuscripts Project was officially launched in 2003 and a major achievement of this project was the new library-archive building, which was inaugurated in Timbuktu in January 2009.
The Tombouctou Manuscripts Project at the University of Cape Town (UCT) is dedicated to research various aspects of writing and reading the handwritten works of Timbuktu and beyond. Training young researchers is an integral part of its work.
International Slavery Museum

Slavery is outlawed in every country, but that doesn't mean it no longer exists. Today, as many as 27 million people across the world endure forms of treatment that merit the term "slavery" just as surely as those bought and sold in the Transatlantic slave trade 200 years ago.. Many victims of contemporary slavery are young people - the same age as those taught in schools in England and Wales.
We hope that when students encounter this material, they will learn about how basic human rights, including those of people their own age, continue to be violated, and that they will develop empathy with those enduring slavery today and become motivated to contribute to their fight for freedom.
Who is the website for?
The site has been produced with particular reference to the teaching of Citizenship within the National Curriculum of England and Wales. We hope it will also be used beyond these borders among students aged 10-14.
What's included?
information on contemporary forms of slavery and initiatives to outlaw and combat it
teaching resources consisting of a set of lesson plans with supporting materials such as worksheets, and case studies
a list of campaigns and organisations that can help with research
a glossary with clear explanations of key concepts to help understand, think about and discuss contemporary slavery.
