Musical Migrations

Last year, the Immigration Museum in Paris held an excellent exhibition on the influence of migration from former colonies on the musical culture of the UK and France after decolonisation in the 1960s. Paris-London Musical Migrations fits perfectly with the themes of Shine Bright 1e File 7 Caribbean Vibes and Shine Bright LLCE File 8 From Isle to Isle. Although the museum has been closed during lockdown, they have had the great idea of making an online version of the exhibition available.

Teaching about Refugees

The Walk with Little Amal project aims to raise awareness of the plight of refugees and particularly refugee children. As Amal makes an 8,000 km journey across Europe on foot, the project hopes to help other children think about the issue, and they've provided lots of educational tools to help teachers explore the topic in class. You can read more about the giant Little Amal puppet and her stops in France in our article . The Walk with Amal site has a teaching pack for classes, available in English and also in French . The beautifully designed pack has activities encouraging pupils to think about what home means to them, which objects are most important to them, create family trees or look into the meanings behind names. There's a scrapbook page about Amal for them to read and reproduce about themselves. A section on migration starts out with migratory animals before moving on to human migration and the push and pull factors associated with it. There's lots of poetry in the pack, like this poem by Warsan Shire, who had to flee Somalia. No one leaves home unless home is the mouth of a shark. You only run for the border when you see the whole city running as well. … No one would leave home unless home chased you to the shore. No one would leave home until home is a voice in your ear saying - leave, run, now. I don’t know what I’ve become. There's a whole section on facing fears and another on climate change as a push factor for refugees with examples of young climate activists. And the pack closes on a section on adventure.

Partitioning India

Director Gurinder Chadha has given cinema audiences a glimpse of British Asian experience with films like Bend it Like Beckham or Bhaji on the Beach . Now a series of chance encounters has led her to examine a difficult period in her family history and that of the country of her ancestors: the Partition of India in 1947. Chadha says she loves historical epics like David Attenborough's Gandhi or David Lean's Passage to India . But in The Viceroy's House , Indian history is being portrayed by a British Indian director whose family was directly affected by Partition. At the moment of Indian Independence, like millions of others, Chadha's family found themselves on the wrong side of the Partition line between Hindu-majority India and the new Muslim homeland Pakistan. As Sikhs in Pakistan they were forced to flee to India, joining 14 million people in the largest mass migration ever seen. Many suffered terrible hardship and at least a million died in violent clashes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id_ZyNdvXKQ Growing up in London, Chadha had never really faced the reality of Partition until she participated in BBC genealogy programme Who Do You Think You Are? in 2005. She returned to her grandfather's village in what is now the Pakistani Punjab and was very touched to find that the people living in and around her grandfather's house were all themselves refugees. They had arrived in the Punjab in 1947, pushed north as her family had been pushed south. Chadha decided to make a film about the Independence process and Partition but she needed to find the right way to tell it. As the opening titles say, "History is written by the victors" and as Chadha says, growing up in Britain, she had been taught that in 1947, after a long struggle for freedom led by Gandhi and others, Britain had decided to relinquish its Indian colony. Lord Mountbatten was sent as the last British Viceroy of India, to oversee the transition to independence. But faced by the opposing demands of Gandhi and Nehru on one side, calling for a united India, and Jinnah on the other, who pleaded for a separate Pakistan so that the Muslim population wouldn't find itself suddenly a disadvantaged minority, Mountbatten had been forced to accept Partition. As Chadha read up about Partition, and partly thanks to documents have only recently become available for public access, she began to hear another story. Some of it from a most unexpected quarter. She met Prince Charles at an event, and when he heard she was preparing a film about Mountbatten, his godfather, he suggested she read The Shadow of the Great Game by Narendra Singh Sarila, who had been Mountbatten's aide-de-camp. In an odd coincidence, a few days later she was contacted by an Indian actor, Narendra Singh Sarila’s son, also urging her to read the book. Singh Sarila suggests that the roots of Partition lay in a deliberate "divide and rule" policy the British administration had developed since the Indian Mutiny against the East India Company in 1857. Many politicians felt that Britain's interest was to encourage Partition, to ensure Pakistan's loyalty and help in stabilising the region. Mountbatten, believed Singh Sarila, was kept in the dark about this plan. Chadha says she wanted to avoid laying the blame for Partition and its consequences at the door of any one community. "It seems to me that the violence was the tragic consequence series of errors committed by all the protagonists." Despite all the historical research, Chadha was keen to focus the film on the impact Partition had on people's lives, not just the geopolitical effects. It was after all sparked by her desire to tell her own family's story. She says, "‘The People’s Partition’ was actually my working title seven years ago when I began. I wanted to show the emotional impact, not the fighting." To do that, she centred the film on the Viceroy's palace and all the people who inhabited and visited it. Both the political leaders — Mountbatten, Gandhi, Nehru and Jinnah — and the 500 ordinary Indians from every community who worked as servants below stairs. A star-crossed love story between a Hindu and a Muslim servant, humanises the impending conflict. The "upstairs downstairs" theme was in place long before the Downton Abbey series became such a big hit. Coincidentally, she cast Hugh Bonneville, as Mountbatten — the actor now known around the world as the Downton patriarch the Earl of Grantham. She admits, "‘I was absolutely furious when Downton Abbey came out first, but now I am so grateful. The genre has become global in a very big way." Mountbatten's shrewd wife is played by Gillian Anderson (The X-Files, The Fall). And they are surrounded by a trio of veteran Indian and British Asian actors playing the Indian and Pakistani leaders Gandhi (Neeraj Kabi), Nehru (Tanveer Ghani) and Jinnah (Denzil Smith). The film starts with one aphorism, "History is written by the victors". Another could easily be applied to it: "You can please some of the people some of the time…" Despite the infinite care Chadha took to be impartial, her film has been accused of being anti-Muslim, anti-Hindu, pro-British, anti-Churchill…. One thing is certain though, it has the merit of presenting a different vision from the "official" history of the colonists. As the director herself says, "I do not believe that anyone but a British Indian could truly inhabit these differing perspectives on partition." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rKp1NQT16r0

On Route 66

Route 66 has mythical status in the U.S.A. and around the world. It’s been immortalised in songs, novels and films. Although it’s no longer a major highway, it still draws visitors keen to experience the iconic home of the road trip. Every September, enthusiasts gather in Springfield, Illinois, for the Mother Road Festival, using the nickname coined by novelist John Steinbeck for Route 66. For a weekend, Springfield echos to the sound of vintage cars from the road's heyday , not to mention Nat King Cole urging them to "get your kicks on Route 66". Probably the most famous road in the world, Route 66 has been in terminal decline since the 1980s. But like all good myths, it lives in the hearts and minds of people across the U.S.A. and beyond. Route 66 ran 2,448 miles from Chicago to Los Angeles. It’s always described in that direction, as if it was fundamentally linked to the country’s historical expansion west. In fact Cyrus Avery, an Oklahoma businessman who had been instrumental in getting the highway built, had travelled west in a wagon train as a boy. Avery was one of the people pushing for a decent road network to match the increase in cars on the roads. There were half a million registered motor vehicles in the U.S.A. in 1910. That rose to 10 million ten years later. The first sections of Route 66 opened in 1926. During the Great Depression in the 1930s, it saw the hundreds of thousands of migrants fleeing the Dust Bowl in the Mid-West who were immortalised in Steinbeck’s The Grapes of Wrath . Ironically, it was finally completely paved between 1933 and 1937 by the unemployed given work by Roosevelt’s New Deal solution to the Depression. Trucking and Tourism In the early days of the road it was adopted by the new road cargo industry that was taking over from trains in the movement of freight. The diagonal route of Highway 66 linked agricultural producers in the Midwest with the booming urban centers of California. It avoided the northern routes that were prone to bad winter weather. From the outset, Route 66 was a leisure and tourism destination. In 1927, just a year after it opened, the U.S. Highway 66 Association was founded to boost tourism. Soon cabin camps, motels, diners and eccentric roadside art were put up to cater to tourists. After World War II, as prosperity to returned to the country, Americans loved to spend their hard-earned cash and leisure time on road trips. For the Beat Generation, that desire for movement seemed to become an end in itself. It was immortalised in Jack Kerouac's On The Road , published in 1957 but based on diaries of his road trips from the late 40s. The Beginning of the End Route 66 was born out of one technological revolution and eclipsed by another. Trucks and automobiles had become so much part of American life that they were literally destroying the highways that hadn't been designed for this enormous increase in volume. During the Cold War, President Eisenhower advocated developing a modern highway network modeled on the German Autobahns he had seen used to great effect to move troops during World War II. He believed it was critical to be able to move troops rapidly in the event of attack. So he persuaded Congress to pass the Federal Aid Highway Act in 1956, financing a new network of four-lane Interstates. It was the death knell for Route 66 and it’s like. In 1985, Highway 66 was finally decommissioned, meaning the state wouldn't ensure its continued upkeep. Nevertheless, the road remains imprinted on the American psyche and still attracts visitors from far and wide. Various schemes are trying to protect part or all of the road. Parts of it are listed on the National Register of Historic Places, or as National Scenic Byways. When Congress passed the Route 66 Study Act 1990, mandating the National Park Service to consider plans to preserve the road, it recognized that Route 66 had, "Become a symbol of the American people’s heritage of travel and their legacy of seeking a better life." You can download this poster for your class. Have a good trip! You can find documents on Kerouac's On th e Road, Steinbeck's The Grapes of Wrath , Dorothea Lange's Dust Bowl migrant photos and Route 66 in Shine Bright 1re Advanced File 4: "On the Road".

Discovering Oceania

A new exhibition at the Musée Quai Branly-Jacques Chirac explores the vast continent of Oceania, where water is omnipresent in real and metaphorical senses. The exhibition was originated at the Royal Academy in London to commemorate the journeys of James Cook in search of a mythical southern continent in the late Eighteenth Century. Cook never found the inexistent land mass geographers believed must exist to balance the globe. What Cook and his crew encountered on arrival was a vast number of island civilisations covering almost a third of the world’s surface: from Tahiti in Polynesia, to the scattered archipelagos and islands of Melanesia and Micronesia. The exhibition includes unique historic artefacts from museums collections but also work by contemporary Oceanian artists around the themes of meetings, memories, past and future. Oceania: exhibition trailer from Royal Academy of Arts on Vimeo . The exhibition opens with a section on journeys. From 8000 BC till 1300 AD, skilled South Asian navigators explored the South Pacific and made its islands their homes. Common origins mean there are similarities in the languages and lifestyle of the different islanders but isolation and specific geographical conditions meant that each adapted and adopted its own specific characteristics. The exhibition is full of artefacts from across the region — often examples of indigenous cultures that Europeans collected, while trying to replace the cultures that created them with Christianity and “civilisation”. Past, Present and Future The exhibit isn’t only facing towards the past. It also features many works by contemporary artists from Oceania. A monumental blue "wave" marks the entrance of the exhibition. It is made using a traditional Maori weaving technique but it is woven from blue plastic tarpaulins which are omnipresent in Maori communities. The collective who created it share their stories and experience on the exhibition site. A magnificently carved piano again confronts indigenous and colonial culture, referring to Jane Campion’s film The Piano (1993) based on a classic New Zealand novel where the clash of cultures is exemplified by European missionaries trying to transport a grand piano to a. inaccessible place with a totally inappropriate climate for the sensitive instrument. The work, by Michael Parekowhai, is entitled He Korero Purakau mo Te Awanui o Te Motu: story of a New Zealand river. The piano, symbol of European civilisation, has been transformed in turn with the technique Maori use for the canoes or wake that transported them thousands of miles over the Pacific. In a video installation, another Maori artist, Lisa Reihana, reinvents a 19th century European representation of exotic Oceania: French artist Jean Gabriel Charvet’s panoramic wallpaper entitled The Savages of the Pacific Sea. Reihana's work, In Pursuit of Venus (Infected) , pictures Captain Cook’s expedition’s encounters with different Pacific peoples. Cook’s expedition was ostensibly a scientific mission to observe the planet Venus. Reihana reimagines the meetings of cultures from the point of view of the peoples of Oceania. Less romantic idyll and more colonial nightmare, with the arrival of infectious diseases brought by the Europeans which decimated local populations. The exhibition closes on a major contemporary problem: rising sea levels threating the future of many island nations. In this video, poet Kathy Jetnil-Kijiner from the Marshall Islands describes the attachment that island peoples have to their land. She concludes, Tell them we don’t want to leave we’ve never wanted to leave and that we are nothing without our islands. https://youtu.be/w9D88ST9qbw Océanie Musée du quai Branly Jacques Chirac Till 7 July See our webpicks for some excellent videos exploring works and themes from the exhibition.
