After assuming power in 1980, the Zimbabwe African National Union (ZANU) has sought to control the narrative of the struggle for liberation from colonialism, to the exclusion of other players such as the Zimbabwe African People’s Union (ZAPU). This book investigates the ways in which photographs are being used within Zimbabwe, especially on social media, to challenge the prevailing narrative and reclaim the memories of the subjugated. The book analyses the photographs produced by Zenzo Nkobi during the struggle against colonialism. Drawing on the memories of veterans from ZAPU and its military wing the Zimbabwe People’s Revolutionary Army (ZPRA), the book shows that photographs can both act as a conduit for existing narratives, and as a tool for shaping memory narratives, and evidencing ZPRA military prowess ahead of other movements.At a time when Zimbabwe is reassessing the legacy of liberation, this book offers a powerful multidisciplinary assessment for researchers across the fields of history, memory, political science, African studies, and media studies.

This volume examines the trends and patterns of journalists’ harassment in Africa and assesses the policy interventions and protection mechanisms that are put into place in the region.Drawing from case studies from selected African countries, an international team of authors offer a broad insight into the state of harassment across the continent, while building new theoretical perspectives that are also context-specific. The chapters bring previous theories and research up to date by addressing the continual change and development of new discourses, including the use of big data and artificial intelligence in harassing and intimidating journalists and mental health issues affecting journalists in their line of duty. More so, the authors argue that the state and form of harassment is not universal, as location and context are some of the key factors that influence the form and character of harassment.Offering new theoretical insights into the scope of journalism practices in Africa, this book will interest students and scholars of journalism, African studies, political science, media and communication studies, journalism practice and gender studies.

Since its launch ten years ago, TikTok has become a global cultural phenomenon, with more than 1 billion monthly users worldwide, 100 million of which are in Africa. Investigating this transformation from a range of perspectives, this book demonstrates that TikTok is not merely a space for entertainment, but also a platform through which African youth articulate dissent, perform identity, and mobilize for social and political causes.The book argues that rather than simply importing global digital trends, TikTok users in Africa use the platform to reflect and rework pre-existing cultural norms and values. The book begins by exploring political and social justice movements, youth engagement, and activism on TikTok. It then goes on to investigate how personal identities and culture are expressed on TikTok, and how the platform can be used for youth culture, livelihoods, performance and monetization. The book also shows how TikTok has introduced new modes of protest in Africa, via performative activism, hashtag dances, and meme politics that challenge traditional ideas of what political engagement looks like.Overall, the book demonstrates that TikTok in Africa has become a key space where political consciousness, cultural identity, and creativity intersect. Its findings will be of interest to researchers and civil society actors across the fields of digital media, communication studies, popular culture, journalism, and African studies.

This book explores how popular cultural artifacts, literary texts, commemorative practices and other forms of remembrances are used to convey, transmit and contest memories of mass atrocities in the Global South. Some of these historical atrocities took place during the Cold war. As such, this book unpacks the influence or role of the global powers in conflict in the Global South. Contributors are grappling with a number of issues such as the politics of memorialization, memory conflicts, exhumations, reburials, historical dialogue, peacebuilding and social healing, memory activism, visual representation, transgenerational transmission of memories, and identity politics.
