A Travel into World Culture (Africa)

My friend Kazue Nakamura organized a series of 6 lectures for the Liberty Academy, Meiji University. 6 speakers over the period of 10 weeks will talk about Africa, its images, and the diaspora of its people. Today Shinichiro Suzuki, the reggae-man professor, talked about the Caribbean and its musical culture. It was very interesting. Co(s)mic blackness... a nice phrase to be remembered! Afterwards we had tea together at the Hilltop Hotel.

I'll be the speaker in four weeks... what shall I talk about?
