Inkululeko

Hei, noe imot å ta med info på norsk om dette? "In 1988, NOCOSA got its own choir Inkululeko (meaning “freedom” in Zulu and Xhosa) launched by the Council’s Oslo group. The idea was to use the force of the freedom songs in the liberation struggle in South Africa to inspire and lend colour to anti-apartheid arrangements in Norway. Inkul-uleko chose to be an independent choral group, but according to its statutes, the choir has all along been “a cultural group supporting NOCOSA’s politi-cal platform”. The choir has performed on innumerable occasions, at rallies, arrangements, seminars, conferences, and at schools. When it was at its most active, Inkululeko gave over a hundred performances per year. In 1991, Inkululeko produced a successful cassette and accompanying booklet with songs, and these have been used a great deal in schools and by other choirs.Inkululeko also performed before many legendary anti-apartheid fig-ures such as Frank Chikane in 1989, Walter Sisulu and Govan Mbeki in 1990, Alfred Nzo in 1992, and also Nelson Mandela and F.W. de Klerk in connec-tion with the Nobel Peace Prize award ceremony in 1993. In 1995, the choir finally had the opportunity of visiting South Africa and among other events performed in several townships." https://www.diva-portal.org/smash/get/diva2:271589/FULLTEXT01.pdf T 84.208.86.134 4. jun. 2021 kl. 11:16 (CEST)
