...forum was contemptible. The Protocols of the Elders of Zion were on sale; flyers asking (approvingly) WHAT IF HITLER HAD WON? were freely displayed. In more than one place in its rambling, incoherent, 474-paragraph-long "Declaration," the forum declared Israel to be a "racist, apartheid state." (The full text of the declaration is available at www.racism.org.za I urge readers to look at it.) Michael Salberg, a New York City attorney attending the conference as an observer for the Anti-Defamation League, says of the forum, "There is no way to have prepared myself, as an American Jew born...

Kuti's music--American R.-and-B. guitar and horns over African percussion--is not just a sound but also the manifestation of a political idea: that the black man should know himself yet not be afraid to use the tools of the West to his own ends. Mali's chanteuse Rokia Traore, conversely, is a diplomat's daughter who grew up around the world but uses her native tongue, Bamanan, and Malian...
