LINGUISTIC IMPERIALISM Linguistic imperialism is the process whereby dominant powers impose their language on those they colonise, suppressing indigenous languages and thus marginalising their speakers and sustaining power inequalities. Indigenous languages in colonial Africa were frowned upon, while colonial languages were made mandatory. In Anglophone Africa, policies were all written in English; media and broadcasting used English; and there were many systemic policies forbidding the use of indigenous languages. For example, students in many Kenyan schools were punished for using any other languages, with most of these punishments involving shaming tactics such as the wearing of bones from dead animals as chains around the neck. This also happened to the indigenous people who were forced to speak Arabic and change their names in places like Sudan. This warped the consciousness of individuals, leading to a loss of appreciation for indigenous languages and cultures - and promoted the adoption of the coloniser’s worldview, values, systems and structures. UNESCO's 1953 report, The Use of Vernacular Languages in Education, indicated that around 40% of the global population received education in an unfamiliar language. Sub-Saharan Africa, which is home to nearly 30% of the world’s languages, still uses the colonisers’ languages as national languages. Consequently, the education and values instilled remain those of the colonisers. Many languages are at risk of extinction, with only a few speakers left. The loss of these languages is equivalent to the loss of African heritage and culture.

AFROCENTRIC SCHOOLS RULE! At independence, African countries typically inherited a European model of education. But a quiet revolution is unfolding in Kenya. At the centre of this transformation is Children in Freedom School - the country's first place of learning with an Afrocentric approach. Located in Nakuru, the school curriculum is based on African culture, values and languages. Kids study African history, philosophy and indigenous knowledge systems, and are tested in their local languages too. In an age where African languages are often downgraded, and sometimes outright banned in Westernised classrooms, this school is reclaiming what was taken away. We paid a visit, and definitely give them top marks! What do you think?

Yesterday I spoke at a special session at the United Nations and called on them to condemn the sexual violence committed by Hamas against Israelis during the October 7th attack. Their silence sends the chilling message that we do not value the humanity of women and girls in Israel — and all around the world — who are the victims of these horrific crimes.

#WATCH | Delhi: On the three-language policy issue, Andhra Pradesh CM N Chandrababu Naidu says "...Language is only a means of communication...All of you are aware that Telugu, Kannada, Tamil and other languages are shining globally...Knowledge is different, language is different. I'm going to promote 10 languages, including international languages, in every university. Students can study, go and work there. They need your services. Not only three languages, I will promote multi-languages. We had to promote Telugu. We should also promote English as it is an international language for livelihood. It is better to learn Hindi, so that we can mingle with people easily."
