    Subject: African Political Films

    In putting together a syllabus for an African Politics and Society class I
    wanted to include several films from Africa that might help to underscore,
    visually, some of the nuances of African Politics. For example Tableau
    Feraille, from Senegal, underscores the high stakes for those who have
    power, particularly when they go against the status quo.
    I would be most appreciative if folks could me send their suggestions (send
    them to me personally at cjohnson@polisci.ufl.edu
    <mailto:cjohnson@polisci.ufl.edu> ) on good films that portray an important
    political question in Africa. Films can be either documentary or fictional.
    If there is interest I would be happy to compile the responses I get and
    post them to the list for everyone's benefit.
    Thanks,
    Chris Johnson
