Hi everyone, I am Lionel and I would like to inform you about one city from Africa. Let's beginning with a short video about this city. So I am going to talk about an unadvertised beautiful city called GAGNOA. I can afford to talk about this city because I was born and grown up over there.(Attention Getter). As I said, I’d like to share with you three things about this city such as the politics of Gagnoa, the delicacy of Gagnoa, and the culture of Gagnoa. (Preview main points) I will begin with the politics of Gagnoa. In fact, the politics of the city revolves around this man Laurent Gbagbo. Due to him, the city has the biggest hospital in West Africa and has also brought the population together. The first point about politic is the biggest …show more content…
Delicacy is everything about food. The most popular food in this city are the palm nut soup with rice and ‘’Garba’’.

In this part, let's me explain how french influence the people of gagnoa. The two ways french influence people are speaking to lady and building catholic school. Firstly, let's me explain how french influence people by speaking to lady. The first language over there is French, but people speaking more another language and that is called “ nouchi’’. Nouchi is a kind of language from this only part of Africa. If you does not come of this part of Africa, you can’t talk and understand the population. Some girl speaking it, but it is more for boy. So the french, helping some boy to have a good conversation with the lady who didn’t understand the
One of the notable aspects of Matsumoto’s history of Cortez is a sentimental relationship that she has established with her subjects in the course of her studies. On the first page, she has named and thanked almost a hundred members of this community, for contributing their time in sharing memories, personal experiences, institutional records, and their warm hospitality. Hospitality of the Cortez community members also shines in Appendix C where she mentioned twenty-four recipes that she got from Japanese women. These recipes ranged from traditional Japanese foods to more conventional zucchini bread to some cross-cultural cuisines like Jell-O mocha.

As Wagga Wagga is 147m above sea level, the altitude difference can affect the young athletes’ performance as it is initially less efficient due to them not being able to get a sufficient amount of oxygen to work the muscles throughout the body. The thinness of the air can increase chances of altitude sickness including headaches, dizziness and nausea. As the team only arrived 20 minutes before the scheduled start of play, they may not have had enough time to acclimatize and properly warm up before the game, causing players to become fatigue a lot quicker and possibly injuring themselves. There is less air resistance due to the air being thinner, allowing the ball to move faster and further through the air, increasing chances of direct injuries
One of the traditions is having seven meals a day. Kitchens are filled with scents, aromas and exquisite textures and colors. Normally dishes include are prepared with the catch from the Gulf of Mexico, such as the pejelagarto, the endemic state fish, and which is served in various
All this is a little too close to what A. G. Hopkins called, in the Introduction to his brilliant Economic History of West Africa, the 'Myth of Merrie Africa'. This myth, and any static picture of the African past, does an injustice to the dynamic and innovative features in African society.
Education proves to be a major factor in this transition, as the newly educated class demands higher standards of living and white-collar jobs. Falola is able to give a face to the topics and issues that we have been discussing in class. Little details such as how imported foods change the taste buds of students and "prepare them for a future that would enslave them in the global economy" (Falola 145). As a student who has eaten cafeteria food for many, many years this is a concept that I can identify with and allows me to see the subtle ways in which the Western world has tainted traditional African culture. Another major event, Pasitor's attempt to free Jakobu, leads the reader step by step through the escalating corruption of the government and demonstrates how it directly affects the lives of the citizens. However, while the reader can imagine what it looked like to live in Africa during these times of change and hardship, the memoir does not give any indication of what it felt like. The lack of emotional connections in the text was disappointing and it made it harder to connect on a personal level with Falola's experiences. In this regard, the book failed to live up to my expectations.
This modernization process, induced by the populational and geographical growth of the city of São Paulo, led to persecuting of some food habits, such as the commercialization of food in the streets and even to the traditional menu of this type of commerce, which was heavily based on the corn, called ‘iguarias do bugre’[i]. This cuisine was strongly influenced by the indigenous culinary culture, offering delicacies such as içás (a type of ant that would be fried and eaten with farofa, that is the cassava flour or the corn flour boiled or roasted), roasted pinhão (the seed of the Pinheiro-brasileiro), corn cakes, cuscuz (a type of couscous) and others.[ii]
On April 1st, 2014 in Washington D.C., General Motors (GM) Chief Executive Officer Mary Barra testified in front of a panel of senators regarding the company’s late delay in addressing a defect in ignition switches, causing cars to lose power and injuring or killing the drivers. While GM has issued a recall on cars that are known to have this defective product, the problem lies in the delay of action on the part of GM, who are accused of knowing about the defect as early as 2001.
Getting off the plane I can already feel the dry, humid heaves of the environment pressing against my body. My colleagues and I have traveled to West Africa, Liberia to conduct field studies in a nearby hot zone for an Ebola outbreak. We will stay in a nearby town named Monrovia, Liberia just off the coast of the Atlantic Ocean. It is a small, crowded and noisy town. Much like a majority of the country it is of very low human living standards.

Bill Cosby, an American comedian, once said, “Is the glass half full, or half empty? It depends on whether you are pouring, or drinking.” Nowadays, when one mentions of Africa, picture of a continent with a vicious cycle of war, poverty and hunger immediately appears in people’s mind. Thus, over the past 50 years, millions, trillions of dollars were sent to aid Africa from developed countries, or organizations. However, poverty and hunger still remain as issues as if nothing has changed. Trying to find the core reasons to this unchanging phenomenon, Good Fortune, a movie directed by Landon Van Soest, explores the disparity between the developers’ and the native’s perspective of needs in urban Africa as well as in rural areas, while explaining riots and chaos are formed due to lack of communication.

The road setting also shows political oppression, especially when persons are stopped and searched by the military for no good reason.
