devices are the poorest things of the kind we have ever had." Lewis Foreman Day criticised the new coins in The Magazine of Art, "British sculptors are justly aggrieved when a production is put forth, presumably as the best we can do, when they themselves know it to be very far from representing the standard of national design, and it aggravates their grievance to think that the favoured artist bears not even an English name". This criticism entered the House of Commons, where Goschen answered questions about the new coinage on 23 and 28 June. The chancellor told MPs that Royal Mint officials preferred artistic designs from past times for the coinage rather than text stating their values. that just as the public did not confuse the florin and half crown, they would not confuse the double florin and crown. The Conservative MP, Lewis Henry Isaacs, asked if the coins could be called in, and more suitable designs made. Goschen responded that the public demand for the new coins had been so great that a premium was being paid for the five-pound piece and the depiction of the queen was similar to other authorised depictions of her. Continued circulation The five-pound and two-pound pieces did not circulate to any great extent, and were intended primarily as souvenirs. Soon after the issuance of the new coins, there was an outcry because the new sixpence was identical in size and similar in design to the half sovereign, and was gilded to pass as one. Although the shilling was similar in size to the sovereign, and had lost the statement of its denomination in the redesign, it was less often gilded as the reverses of the two coins did not resemble each other. The Numismatic Magazine'''s July 1887 issue noted that production of the new sixpence had been stopped pending enquiries. Before the end of the year, the Royal Mint had resumed production of the sixpence's former design, with a wreath surrounding the words , though paired with Boehm's Jubilee head obverse. These were made current by a proclamation dated 28 November 1887. By September, The Graphic was reporting that the new coins were scarce in circulation, and there was talk that many of them had been sent to the colonies. The withdrawn sixpence carried a premium, as did the five-pound piece, and some crowns had been gilded to pass for the five-pound coin. The Sheffield Independent'''s London correspondent reported on 17 September that the withdrawn sixpences were passing for half a crown each, and that in addition to the quantities of coin sent to the colonies, large amounts had been absorbed by jewellers, who placed them in ornaments, and by visitors to London seeking souvenirs of the Jubilee, especially Americans. In his annual report released in May 1888, Fremantle reported that though "the issue of the new coins was received with some adverse criticism", there had been a considerable demand for them, above what was needed for circulation, with the largest amount of silver coins issued in several years. Beyond the sixpence, there was no immediate move to replace the Jubilee coinage; the numismatist, Jeffery L. Lant, explained that "the Jubilee coinage was popular with the public notwithstanding the criticism directed against it. It constituted, initially, the best form of Jubilee keepsake". He pointed out that the Royal Mint sold 1,881 proof sets of the 1887 Jubilee coinage at a price of 11 guineas (£11 11s, that is, eleven pounds and eleven shillings or £11.55 in decimal reckoning), about 25 percent above the face value, and the demand for the sets and for the Jubilee medal bearing a similar bust of Victoria by Boehm was such that work was not completed until the end of 1888. The Royal Mint was so busy striking Jubilee coins that extra money for labour costs had to be requested. These factors made it easy for the Royal Mint to wait until some time after the Jubilee to consider a replacement. Goschen wrote to Ponsonby in September 1889, "'As the general discussion on the Jubilee coinage had subsided, and the public appeared to have got used to the new coin, I thought that it might possibly be best to let the matter rest for a while." Groats, or fourpence pieces, had not been struck for circulation in Britain since 1855. Disliked because they were the same diameter (though somewhat thicker) than the threepenny bit, they retained some popularity in Scotland, and circulated in British Guiana as the equivalent of a quarter guilder. An issue of groats was made in 1888, the last of its series. These were intended for British Guiana, and bore Boehm's Jubilee head on the obverse, with the William Wyon reverse used since the currency groat's initial issuance in 1836. Fourpence pieces with the colony of British Guiana's name on them were struck by the Royal Mint from 1891. Victoria took the opportunity, when inspecting proposed changes to the shilling in June 1888, to lobby Goschen for the inclusion of her title as empress of India (, abbreviated as on the coinage). Since the act allowing Victoria to assume the Indian title had forbidden its use in the United Kingdom, Goschen took no action on the request, but Victoria got her way with the following issue of coins, which debuted in 1893. In 1889, both sides of the shilling were slightly altered, with a larger version of Boehm's effigy of Victoria being approved by the queen, and slight changes made to the reverse. Nevertheless, in September 1889, Victoria wrote, "the Queen dislikes the new coinage very much, and wishes the old one could still be used and the new one gradually disused, and then a new one struck". In reply, Goschen promised to confer with Royal Mint authorities as to possible options. Replacement and end of series The double florin had been controversial, with some questioning the need for such a piece or complaining it was too near in size to the crown coin. Anecdotes of losses sustained by publicans and their help, who accepted the double florin under the misapprehension it was a five-shilling piece, led to it being dubbed the "Barmaid's Ruin". The government attempted to increase its circulation by including it in pay packets for its workers, but minting was stopped, as it proved permanently, in August 1890. The death of Boehm in December 1890 set the Royal Mint free to consider replacement designs without being concerned about grieving the queen's favourite sculptor, and in February 1891, Goschen appointed a Committee on the Design of Coins with Sir John Lubbock as chairman, and including Fremantle and such notables as Sir Frederic Leighton, president of the Royal Academy. The committee's remit was "to examine the designs on the various coins put into circulation in the year 1887, and the improvements in those designs since suggested, and to make such recommendations on the subject as might seem desirable, and to report what coins, if any, should have values expressed on them in words and figures". At its first meeting, on 12 | years previously. Boehm gave only intermittent attention to the project, and it took years before it came to fruition. The queen finally gave approval in early 1887, and the new coinage was prepared. Some of the reverse designs for the coinage were changed at the same time, depicting heraldic imagery and engraved by Leonard Charles Wyon. When the new coins were released in June 1887, they proved a popular souvenir of Queen Victoria's Golden Jubilee. They were criticised, not only for the diminutive crown, but because the new reverse designs did not state the value of the coin. The sixpence was gilded by fraudsters to pass as a half sovereign, and it was quickly withdrawn by the Royal Mint, which resumed its old reverse design (which stated its value). Royal Mint authorities began to consider replacing the Jubilee issue within a year of its release, and this may have been hastened by Boehm's death in 1890. A committee was created to consider replacements, and the Old Head coinage, with an obverse created by Thomas Brock, began to be struck in 1893. Background and preparation By the late 1870s, most denominations of British coins carried versions of the obverse design featuring Queen Victoria created by William Wyon and first introduced in 1838, the year after she acceded to the throne. The queen, approaching her 60th birthday, no longer resembled her numismatic depiction; and in February 1879 Sir Henry Ponsonby informed the Deputy Master of the Royal Mint, Charles Fremantle, that the Austrian-born sculptor, Joseph Boehm, had been engaged to produce a medallic likeness of the queen that could be adapted for coinage purposes. Boehm had trained as a medallist and had undertaken several sculptural commissions for the royal family. There was no deadline for the commission, and Boehm throughout often put aside the portrait in favour of more pressing projects. In June 1879, Victoria recorded in her journal that she had "sat to Böhm for a Bas Relief" and in August Ponsonby wrote to Fremantle that the head was done, leading the deputy master to become more involved in the project. Nevertheless, in November, Boehm wrote apologising for his lack of progress. He wrote again on 1 January 1880, stating that he had completed several small models, and mentioning a small crown he had placed on Victoria's head. Although this would be similar in style to the 1877 Empress of India Medal, Fremantle was dubious about the headgear and wrote to Charles Francis Keary at the British Museum asking if there was precedent in numismatics for this. Keary replied that "'in the case of Greek coins I need not add the crowns are put on as if meant to be worn and not to tumble off at the slightest movement". In January 1880, the queen's daughter, Princess Louise, viewed Boehm's work, and suggested a larger crown, and on 20 February, Victoria paid a call on the sculptor, and approved the revisions. Fremantle visited Boehm three days later, and, still concerned about the crown, asked for advice from the Tower of London and from the College of Arms. Victoria sat for Boehm again on 28 February, and work had advanced to the point where Fremantle suggested having the Royal Mint's modeller and engraver, Leonard Charles Wyon (William's son) prepare steel coinage dies. Wyon did so, and pattern coins were struck several times over the next three years, but no version satisfied everyone involved. Boehm's design, with a crown fitting Victoria's head, was used for the Afghanistan Medal (1881). At the end of 1882, Fremantle proposed to Boehm that an entirely fresh start was needed, and the sculptor, busy with other commissions, agreed. Wyon was not initially involved in this second attempt, and Boehm invited the Viennese sculptor, , under whom he had trained. Radnitzky had some of the work done by one of his students, whose identity is not known; the work may in fact have been done by Radnitzky himself. In August 1884, Fremantle had the chancellor of the Exchequer, Hugh Childers, show a pattern half crown to Victoria, who considered it a good likeness but criticised the fall of the veil on the coin, and stated that she preferred the existing coinage. By this time, the smaller crown had been placed upon her likeness again. Revisions were made, and more dies were sent from Vienna. In 1885, Leonard Wyon re-joined the project, and in January 1886, Fremantle authorised payment of 200 guineas (£210) to Boehm for his work to date, much of which was probably sent on to Radnitzky. By June of that year, the project had advanced far enough that Fremantle told Boehm it would be desirable to have the new coins available for Queen Victoria's Golden Jubilee in 1887. The queen approved the new effigy in July, when she sat for Boehm again. A report of the session in the Court Circular prompted Wyon, who would have preferred to make a design himself, to write sadly to Fremantle. Further revisions were necessary, and it was not until March 1887 that the new chancellor, George Goschen, approved the coins, dies for which were prepared from Boehm's models by Wyon. They were then taken to be approved by Victoria, who gave her consent, though her hope that the coins bear some indication of the jubilee was resisted by Fremantle, who wished to have dies sent in the next post to the Australian branch mints. He stated that as they were first struck in the jubilee year, the coins would always be "associated with the idea of the Jubilee". Designs On the obverse of the Jubilee coinage, Victoria wears her small diamond crown, which she had bought so as not to have to wear a heavier one. It was the crown that she preferred to wear at that time, and appears on other contemporary effigies of her. Nevertheless, it quickly became controversial; as the numismatic authors, G. P. Dyer and P. P. Gaspar wrote in A New History of the Royal Mint, "the Boehm portrait, with its tiny crown in danger of tumbling off the back of the queen's head, attracted most criticism". Sir John Craig, in his earlier history, The Mint, deemed the effect of the small crown on Victoria's head "ludicrous". Kevin Clancy, in his history of the sovereign coin, stated that: The numismatic scholar, Howard Linecar, deemed the Jubilee head coinage "conservative in design, except only for that unfortunate crowned bust". Richard Lobel, in Coincraft's Standard Catalogue of English and UK Coins, stated, "the small crown placed on the back of the queen's head made her look a bit foolish". The numismatic writer, Stephen Skillern, explained that, "the Jubilee portrait of the Queen had made no attempt to conceal or soften the results of time on the old Queen's face." The numismatist, Lawrence W. Cobb, writing in 1985, took a more nuanced view of the portrait, "Wyon seems to have tried to soften the Queen's look of age, tension and strain [on the medal], but in so doing he lost some of the strength and vigor of the Queen's indomitable spirit. Nonetheless, even with its faults, Wyon's portrait preserves the majesty of the Queen's presence." Leonard Forrer wrote, "Unfortunately, his head of Queen Victoria was so much wanting in artistic merit, that it was severely criticised by all experts, and never gained favour with the public." In addition to bearing the crown, Victoria's head has a widow's veil. Following the death of Albert, Prince Consort in 1861, she had remained in mourning, and the veil would have been black in colour. The veil descends from a widow's cap worn under the crown. The queen has a pearl necklace and there is an earring in her visible ear. She wears the Ribbon and Star of the Order of the Garter and the badge of the Order of the Crown of India; the artist's initials may be found on the truncation of her bust. For the various reverses, according to Dyer and Gaspar, "Fremantle had revived some of the finest heraldic designs from the past". He felt that a reverse design with the denomination inside a wreath was "feeble", and sought artistic designs. Fremantle selected designs originating with the Great Recoinage of 1816–1817 or even further back, and these were engraved by Wyon. In 1873, soon after he had assumed the deputy mastership, Fremantle had secured the return of Benedetto Pistrucci's 1817 design of Saint George and the Dragon to the sovereign, for the first time in almost a half century. This design appeared on the gold sovereign, double sovereign and five-pound piece of the Jubilee coinage, and also on the silver crown, or five-shilling piece. Beginning with the Jubilee coinage, a plume was restored to Pistrucci's design; it had featured in his original work, but had later been omitted. The sixpence, shilling, florin, half crown, half sovereign and a new coin, the double florin, were given variations of the ensigns armorial of the United Kingdom. This was done in various guises, thus, according to the proclamation making them current that was issued in May 1887, the half sovereign had a "garnished Shield surmounted by the Royal Crown" while on the half crown, they were "in a plain Shield surrounded by the Garter, bearing the Motto 'Honi soit qui mal y pense' and the Collar of the Garter". The half sovereign's reverse design was a slight modification to those of earlier Victorian half sovereigns, and its crowned shield did not differ much from designs used since the denomination had originated in 1817. Each of the reverses for the sixpence and above carried the date of minting, but none carried a statement of the coin's monetary value. The sixpence had borne a wreath surrounding a statement of its value since 1831, with one reason for this being that it was the same size as the half sovereign, and was fraudulently plated to pass as one. The silver threepence, as well as the Maundy coinage (which would not appear with the new obverse until 1888, as the Royal Maundy had already occurred before the new coins were ready) carried their longtime designs (since 1822) of a wreathed and crowned number indicating their denominations, though changes were made to the crown, and the Maundy twopence carried a different style 2. Leonard Wyon made those alterations from the designs of Jean Baptiste Merlen, and they are still used as the Maundy reverse designs. No change was made to either side of the bronze coinage (the penny and its fractions) as there was then a large surplus of bronze pieces. Nevertheless, pattern coins of the penny, halfpenny and farthing were prepared with obverse designs similar to Boehm's. The Jubilee coinage bore various shortened |

Nadal's comeback victory from two sets down was only the seventh time in the Open Era that a player won a major final after a two-set deficit (preceded by 5 French Open finals and 1 US Open final). It is considered one of the greatest tennis matches in history. Background Nadal and Medvedev had met on four previous occasions, including in the 2019 US Open final where Nadal prevailed in five sets. Heading into the match, Nadal led their head-to-head 3–1.

their music relationship. Regarding Cyrille's musical background, Schweizer recalled: "I followed the collaboration between Cecil Taylor and Andrew Cyrille during the 60s with great interest. I was inspired. Cecil's way of playing, his clusters, strongly influenced me at that time. Andrew is an unusually fast and agile drummer. He plays free, but he's also an exceptional time player. He listens very acutely. His long collaboration with Cecil Taylor was the best schooling for listening to the piano."

There is no stalling between these two, no looking around for a language, it's all one syllable: "GO!"... There are few expressions of spontaneous communication in improvisational music that could equal, let alone surpass, this one." The authors of the Penguin Guide to Jazz Recordings awarded the album 3½ stars, but noted: "One senses that Schweizer is very aware of the Taylor lineage and deliberately tries to steer away from it, though the clusters and clumped runs she falls into are immediately and inescapably redolent of the American pianist."

Fortunately, the owner of the car was able to escape without any injuries.

The comments resulted in a meeting between the National Association of Black Journalists and the NBC. The Sun reported: "The controversy started Dec. 1 when Williams' statement was posted online by Robert (Rob) Redding Jr. at his Web log, www.reddingnewsreview.com, which is targeted to "black news readers." Williams' statement and reaction to it have also been reported and discussed in Richard Prince's widely read Journal-isms column at www.may nardije.org, the Web site of the Robert C. Maynard Institute for Journalism Education." Books Redding has written 12 consecutive best selling books. The Professor (2019) Redding, who documents blacks in numerous books, wrote in a column about his book The Professor in The American Philosophical Association about Malcolm X's queerness. He wrote: "It is clear we have a long way to go from cleansing our society from this type of homophobia largely visited upon us from our European counterparts. Simply put, there is nothing straight about Malcolm. He was an enigma to many in his time despite his stature and ability to promote his bold and sometimes caustic rhetoric. He was ferociously fearless for his time like many other militant blacks. All of these black voices were fearless but still labeled by many whites as inappropriate and odd for giving narrative to the community. The very definition of queer is to be “strange” or “odd.” To the point, the series points out how strange it was that Malcolm did not fear whites. The show points out how he was political when the nation didn’t want him to be. And how it was strange he grew up in all- or mostly white classes in the schools he attended. All of those observations feed the point of Malcolm’s queerness." Out Loud (Amazon, 2017) Redding called "Out Loud a tell-all performance and conceptual autobiography.

Rush Limbaugh In May 2011, Redding got into a verbal altercation with talk icon Rush Limbaugh when he asked Michael Steele, the former chairman of the Republican National Committee, about a skit in which a Limbaugh staffer "reintepreted" his criticism of Pres. Obama's immigration speech in Ebonics. "I thought it was highly inappropriate," Steele told Redding. "It is stupid. It's not something that furthers the conversation." Limbaugh responded: "In what may be a first, we have a formal complaint lodged against the Official Obama Criticizer, Bo Snerdley. Bo Snerdley was recently utilized on this program last week as the Official Obama Criticizer, and it was as though it had happened for the first time. Now, we’ve been featuring the Official Obama Criticizer for close to a year, if not more on this program, but something about last week’s version of the Official Obama Criticizer has rubbed ‘em wrong out there, particularly your translation for brothers and sisters in the hood. The complaint is that there aren’t any of those listening to the program. Of course, the left and the media are on this kick now that there’s racism everywhere, and really racism and race-baiting has its home on the left. But there’s a show out there called Redding News Review."It’s some guy named Rob Redding and his program is syndicated. Whose isn’t? And Rob Redding interviewed the former chairman of the Republican National Committee, Michael Steele. And Redding says, “Okay, Rush Limbaugh is widely thought to be a racist.” President Obama's 2008 election In 2007, Redding was also responsible for reporting that Amb. Andrew Young's views on Barack Obama should not have run for president. Redding was first to report that Young said that Obama should wait his turn. Young explained: "I don't really think about words. Now Martin was an orator. Martin Luther King thought about words. He was an English major at Morehouse. He had memorized long passages of Shakespeare and W.H. Auden and all the poets. Knew the Bible. Almost had a photographic memory. So for him, the oratory was important. I just never was into it that much. I started out very early figuring that I had to say what was in my heart. And I didn't really worry about how it came out. That's the reason I get in trouble every now and then. That quite often people will misunderstand or misinterpret what's in my heart. Because I don't censor myself."

an album by saxophonist Pharoah Sanders. It was recorded in October 1992 at Sear Sound Studio in New York City, and was released by Venus Records later that year. On the album, Workman is joined by pianist William Henderson, bassist Charles Fambrough, and drummer Sherman Ferguson. Reception Writing for AllMusic, Scott Yanow remarked: "Although there are some passionate moments, this is actually one of his mellower sessions... There are some heated moments... but Sanders's trademark screeches are at a minimum this time around." The authors of the Penguin Guide to Jazz Recordings awarded the album 4 stars, calling Sanders's group "a perfectly balanced band," and commenting: "The 25th anniversary of Coltrane's death spawned a rash of tribute albums, few of them as apostolically convincing as this... Sanders sounds thoughtful and even a little wistful, as befits a tribute to his friend, but he never lets his playing drift into sentiment. A strong, creative record, perhaps the only one of the recent batch that can be considered essential." In a review for All | for All About Jazz, Chris May stated: "Without at any time attempting to 'be' Coltrane, retaining his own singular sound and style throughout, Sanders creates a uniquely vibrant evocation of Coltrane's genius at particular time in his development. Interestingly — some may say happily — the particular time Sanders chooses to evoke is not the late period Coltrane with which he'd personally been involved... Crescent with Love is... one of Sanders's finest mature albums. The sound he developed alongside Coltrane, and then burnished and refined on his own late 1960s/early 1970s albums, is here in its full grown-up glory—out there but lyrical, multiphonic but mellifluous... Magnificent music through and through."

established in 1815, there was little difference between the rights of British subjects and protected persons. In 1911, at the Imperial Conference a decision was made to draft a common nationality code for use across the empire. The British Nationality and Status of Aliens Act 1914 allowed local jurisdictions in the British self-governing territories to continue regulating nationality in their jurisdictions, but also established an imperial nationality scheme for use throughout the realm. Under its terms, common law provisions were reiterated for natural-born persons born within the realm on or after the effective date. By using the word person, the statute nullified legitimacy requirements for jus soli nationals, meaning an illegitimate child could derive nationality from its mother. For those born abroad on or after the effective date, legitimacy was still required, and nationality could only be derived by a child from a British father (one generation), who was natural-born or naturalised. It also provided that a married woman derived her nationality from her spouse, meaning if he was British, she was also, and if he was foreign, so was she. It stipulated that upon loss of nationality of a husband, a wife could declare that she wished to remain British. It allowed that if a marriage had terminated, through death or divorce, a British-born national who had lost her status through marriage could reacquire British nationality through naturalisation without meeting a residency requirement. The statute specified that a five-year residency or service to the crown was required for naturalisation. British crown colony (1923–1949) On 12 September 1923 Southern Rhodesia became a crown colony. Though not granted in actual fact Dominion status, the country was allowed broad powers to govern, but Britain retained the right to supervise affairs and the local legislature was forbidden to regulate on matters dealing with the indigenous population. Amendments to the British Nationality Act were enacted in 1918, 1922, 1933 and 1943 changing derivative nationality by descent and modifying slightly provisions for women to lose their nationality upon marriage. Because of a rise in statelessness, a woman who did not automatically acquire her husband's nationality upon marriage or upon his naturalisation in another country, did not lose their British status after 1933. The 1943 revision allowed a child born abroad at any time to be a British national by descent if the Secretary of State agreed to register the birth. Under the terms of the British Nationality Act 1948 British nationals in Southern Rhodesia were reclassified at that time as "British subjects without citizenship", pending passage of a regulation by the Southern Rhodesian legislature. Provisions were made in the 1948 British Act that each Commonwealth Country could regulate their own domestic citizenship laws, which would provide that persons defined as citizens anywhere within the Commonwealth were automatically British subjects and not aliens. The basic British nationality scheme did not change overmuch, and typically those who were previously defined as British remained the same. Changes included that wives and children no longer automatically acquired the status of the husband or father, children who acquired nationality by descent no longer were required to make a retention declaration, and registrations for children born abroad were extended. Internally self-governing colony (1949–1953) Though not empowered under the Statute of Westminster 1931 as an equal self-governing independent state within the British realm, in 1949, the Southern Rhodesian Citizenship and British Nationality Act was passed by the Legislative Assembly of Southern Rhodesia. Under its terms, British nationality was conferred on anyone born in Southern Rhodesia between 12 September 1890 and 31 December 1949. Persons born on or after 1 January 1950, acquired the status of British subject if their father was a British subject by birth or naturalisation. Women married to British subjects automatically acquired the status of British subjects as did women who had previously been British subjects but lost their status because of marriage to a foreigner. Qualified foreigners could naturalise after a five-year residency and persons who were British subjects by virtue of Commonwealth Citizenship or Irish citizenship could register after a two-year residency in Southern Rhodesia, unless they were naturalised citizens, in which case a three-year residency was required. Foreign wives and children of Southern Rhodesians were allowed to apply for registration as British subjects. Persons who did not acquire Southern Rhodesian citizenship in conjunction with British nationality under the terms of the 1949 Act, remained British subjects without citizenship. The 1951 Amendment (Act 49), besides making procedural changes, provided that children of enemy alien fathers or mothers confined to a camp because of marriage to an enemy alien, or born to parents in polygamous marriages were not entitled to be Southern Rhodesian citizens (nor British subjects). It also disallowed a wife or minor children to register based upon having a South Rhodesian husband or father, if they were a party to or product of a polygamous marriage. A subsequent amendment passed as Act 63 of 1953, which made minor changes to acquisition by birth and descent. That year, Southern Rhodesia was formally linked to the British protectorates of Nyasaland and Northern Rhodesia in the Federation of Rhodesia and Nyasaland. The Federation was administrative and each member retained its status as either a protectorate or colony, meaning that internal affairs could be regulated by the federation, but foreign affairs were under Britain's control. Each of the three territories maintained separate nationality rules until 1957, when the Citizenship of Rhodesia and Nyasaland and British Nationality Act was passed. Federation (1958–1964) Under the terms of the Citizenship of Rhodesia and Nyasaland and British Nationality Act 1957, persons born within the territories of the federation, before and after it was created, were considered to be British subjects with citizenship in the federation, if they had previously been British subjects, as long as their father was not granted diplomatic immunity or was not an enemy alien. It excluded children from acquiring citizenship or nationality if they were illegitimate. Persons born outside of the federated territories were also considered British nationals if their father had been born in one of the territories. Wives of those who became British nationals of the federation, or would have become so except for the death of their spouse, who did not gain nationality by other provisions, were allowed to register, as long as they were not a party to a polygamous relationship. Those who were British protected persons had no change in status under the statute, which reclassified as British nationals of the federation only those persons whose fathers were British subjects. In 1962, the United Nations General Assembly affirmed that under Chapter XI of the Charter of the United Nations the status of Southern Rhodesia was as a non-self-governing territory. A special committee was assigned to evaluate the status of Southern Rhodesia between 1962 and 1964 and concluded that Rhodesia was not ready for independence and self-government because of discriminatory restrictions on the franchise, which would limit the ability of the population to exercise their right to self-determination. The Federation of Rhodesia and Nyasaland dissolved on 1 January 1964. Those who had been British nationals of the federation were reclassified as CUKCs, unless they became on that date British nationals of Southern Rhodesia. Nyasaland and Northern Rhodesia returned to the status of protectorates and BPPs therein retained their status as protected persons. Effectively, on that date, the Citizenship of Southern Rhodesia and British Nationality Act 1963 came into force. It specified that anyone who previously was a citizen of Southern Rhodesia and a national of Britain under prior legislation continued to be so. It further provided that after 1 January 1964, persons could obtain the status of British subject and citizen of Southern Rhodesia by birth, descent, registration, or naturalisation under the same standards as previously acquired. On 24 October 1964, Northern Rhodesia gained independence and thereafter, Southern Rhodesia was known simply as Rhodesia. Return to self-governing colony (1965–1979) On 11 November 1965, Rhodesia claimed independence, but the United Nations General Assembly condemned the action on the same day because it was an illegal seizing of authority of a small, white, settler, minority over the majority-African population, and a threat to international security and world peace. To enforce their action the UN Security Council urged enforcement of an oil embargo and economic sanctions against Southern Rhodesia. The Rhodesian Legislature passed a new constitution and attempted to ratify it. Under the 1965 Constitution, enacted by the Rhodesian legislature, British authority over the country was terminated, meaning that it declared that the governor was no longer the head of state and that the British Parliament had no oversight of internal or external affairs. The new Rhodesian Constitution was not confirmed by the British Parliament and was legally invalid. On 16 November 1965, the British Parliament passed the Southern Rhodesia Act reaffirming British sovereignty over Rhodesia and the 1961 Constitution as the valid constitutional instrument. An Order in Council (No. 1952) was issued by | Portuguese attacks on the Mutapa Kingdom had weakened the state, causing some of their tributary states to gain autonomy. The weakened Mutapa state was attacked by the Rozvi Empire in the latter half of the century and forced into vassalage. Simultaneously, the Rozvi drove the Portuguese from the area and gained dominance in the southwestern central plateau. Beginning around the 1820s, the Mfecane brought widespread disruption and conflict, as people migrated into the area from the south. Nguni groups, like the Ndebele people and Gaza people, moved into Shona territory. The Ndebele raided the Manyika people and Mashonaland, eventually establishing the Ndebele Kingdom in Matabeleland, while the Gaza people established themselves on the Sabi River. Though they did not conquer the territory, they destroyed the Rozvi kingdom, and kept the Shona people from reorganising their states. In 1854, British missionary Robert Moffat was accompanied by the traders Samuel H. Edwards and James Chapman into the area. The following year, Moffat's son-in-law David Livingstone visited and named Victoria Falls. Increased missionary activity led to traders and settlers moving into the region in the 1880s and 1890s. In 1884, British mining magnate Cecil Rhodes convinced Parliament to grant him a charter for the British South Africa Company to develop the region and protect it from expansion of the Portuguese. In 1888, Rhodes secured a mining concession from Lobengula, king of the Ndebele, which was recognized by Britain on 12 September 1890. That year, the company sent agents to occupy Mashonaland and established a headquarters at Fort Salisbury. British South Africa Company rule (1891–1923) Under the charter, and terms of the Order in Council issued 9 May 1891, Britain acquired extraterritorial jurisdiction over British subjects, in the territories operated by the British South Africa Company. From their headquarters, the Company expanded westward, and took over Matabeleland after defeating the Ndebele there in 1893. In 1895, the large territory the Company was operating in Southern Africa was named Rhodesia with the dividing line between Northern Rhodesia and Southern Rhodesia being the Zambezi River. By 1896, the subjects of the declining Ndebele Kingdom revolted and were joined by the Shona people residing in the northeastern and central regions of Southern Rhodesia. The Company suppressed the uprisings in 1897 and made reforms to their administration of the area. In 1923, the British South Africa Company relinquished responsibility for Southern Rhodesia to Britain. In Britain, allegiance, in which subjects pledged to support a monarch, was the precursor to the modern concept of nationality. The crown recognized from 1350 that all persons born within the territories of the British Empire were subjects. Those born outside the realm — except children of those serving in an official post abroad, children of the monarch, and children born on a British ship — were considered by common law to be foreigners. Marriage did not affect the status of a subject of the realm, but under common law, single women, including divorcées, were not allowed to be parents thus their children could not derive nationality maternally and were stateless unless legitimated by their father. British Nationality Acts did not extend beyond the bounds of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, meaning that under Britain's rules of conquest, laws in place at the time of acquisition remained in place until changed. Other than common law, there was no standard statutory law which applied for subjects throughout the realm, meaning different jurisdictions created their own legislation for local conditions, which often conflicted with the laws in other jurisdictions in the empire. Thus, a person who was naturalised in Canada, for example, would be considered a foreigner, rather than a British national, in Australia or South Africa. When British protectorates were established in 1815, there was little difference between the rights of British subjects and protected persons. In 1911, at the Imperial Conference a decision was made to draft a common nationality code for use across the empire. The British Nationality and Status of Aliens Act 1914 allowed local jurisdictions in the British self-governing territories to continue regulating nationality in their jurisdictions, but also established an imperial nationality scheme for use throughout the realm.

pregnant. But she had to confront a white demon snake and save her home, the Min Kingdom, from drought. She cast a spell to make it rain, but had to sacrifice her child (the fetus) and hide it so it would not be harmed by the spell. However, the demon snake ate the fetus, but Chen Jinggu battled and defeated the demon snake, thereby saving the kingdom. It is noted that Chen Jinggu essentially performed abortion on herself to save her people. The story was translated into French in 1988. Later, in 2008, it was translated into English with the help of Baptandier in a book published by Stanford University Press. Analysis Scholars have analyzed the book based on the reversal of gender norms and the woman's role in society. They note that Chen Jinggu initially eschewed the traditional role of women. First, she refused an arranged marriage. Moreover, rather than giving birth to her child, she chose instead to sacrifice her fetus in order to save her country. Scholars also analyze the book in terms of the challenges that women may face when trying to become leaders in society, or in Chen Jinggu's case, becoming a Daoist leader. Guanyin Chen Jinggu is said to be related to Guanyin via the following story. One day in Quanzhou, Fujian, the people needed money to build a bridge. Guanyin turned into an attractive lady and said she would marry any man who could hit her with silver. Many tried, and Guanyin was able to accumulate a lot of silver ingots through this process. Eventually one of the Eight Immortals, Lü Dongbin, helped a merchant hit her hair with some silver. Guanyin's hair then floated away and became a white demon female snake. The snake would seduce men and kill other women. Guanyin then disappeared, but she let some of her blood from her finger flow down the river. A woman named Ge Furen (葛妇人 Lady Ge), whose husband was from the Chen family, then drank some of Guanyin's blood from the water and became pregnant, giving birth to Chen Jinggu. Later Chen Jinggu would fight and kill the white demon snake. As for the merchant, he later reincarnated as Liu Qi (劉杞) and would marry Chen Jinggu. The story continues with how Chen Jinggu grew up, studied at Lüshan, and eventually saved Northern Fujian from drought while defeating the white demon snake, but at the cost of sacrificing her own child. It is said that she died of either miscarriage or hemorrhage from the self-abortion. Chen's title Linshui (臨水 near the water's edge) could be related to how Guanyin stood near the water before being hit by silver, ultimately leading to the births of Chen Jinggu and the white snake. It could also symbolize Chen Jinggu's status as a goddess of the sea, with the coastal province of Fujian bordering the ocean. It could also refer to how Chen summoned rainwater to cure a drought in north Fujian. Chen Jingu and three Monkey Saints The Journey to the West's main character Sun Wukong's inspiration might have also come from the White Monkey legends from the Chinese Chu kingdom (700–223 BC), which revered gibbons. These legends gave rise to stories and art motifs during the Han dynasty, eventually contributing to the Monkey King figure. The Monkey King may have also been influenced by local folk religion from Fuzhou province, where monkey gods were worshipped long before the novel. This included the three Monkey Saints of Lin Shui Palace, who were once fiends, who were subdued by the goddess Chen Jinggu. The three were Dan Xia Da Sheng (丹霞大聖), the Red Face Monkey Sage, Tong Tian Da Sheng (通天大聖), the Black Face Monkey Sage, and Shuang | in the 2nd year of Dali during the Tang dynasty. Another source says she was born at the end of the Tang dynasty and died in the 5th year of Tiancheng in the Later Tang dynasty. When young, Chen Jinggu went to the Lushan school (or Mount Lü, said to be located in modern Jiangxi) with Lin Jiuniang and Li Sanniang to study under Xu Xun (许逊). But even at Lushan, Chen learned all about Daoism except the traditional female roles of maternity, pregnancy, etc. After finishing her studies she returned home and married Liu Qi (劉杞) from Gutian County Ningde. She continued to subdue spirits and help those in need. At the age of 24, Chen Jinggu became pregnant, but she continued to help the people through rain or drought. A drought hit north Fujian, so she used her Daoist powers to create rain, but eventually sacrificed her fetus and herself to save the people and vanquish an evil demon snake. She was regarded as a deity by the people and bestowed the honorary title Linshui, the goddess who protects the fetus and the people (順產助生護胎佑民女神). It is said that one of the goddesses (懿德夫人 Madame Yide) of Ryukyu Islands is a disciple of Chen Jinggu. Chen Jinggu, Lin Jiuniang, and Li Sanniang were sworn sisters (義結金蘭 Yijie Jinlan). Chen Jinggu was the head and was called Danai Furen (大奶夫人) or Chen Nai Furen (陳奶夫人). Lin Jiuniang was called Lin Nai Furen (林奶夫人) or Lin Ernai (林二奶 second lady Lin). Li Sanniang was called Li Nai Furen (李奶夫人) or Li Sannai (李三奶 third lady Li). Chen, Lin, and Li are sometimes referred to as the "Three Ladies". Titles Chen Jinggu was also given the title of saint (聖誕 for example 正月十四:臨水夫人陳靖姑大奶夫人聖誕). Defending Maiden Chen (陈靖姑) where 姑 is as in 姑娘 guniang Linshui Nu (臨水嬭) Chen Fourteen Nainai (陳十四娘娘) or Fourteenth Damsel Chen Shunyi furen which is said to have been bestowed during the Song dynasty She was also given the title "Just Lady" around 1250 during the Song She is also sometimes called the "Goddess of pregnancy" The name Linshui Furen (臨水夫人) has been translated as "Lady at the Water's Edge" or sometimes "Water-margin Lady" as Linshui means "near the water". Cultural influence In Taiwan, there is a children's festival involving Ox horns (牛角做出幼) which is a coming of age ceremony for young people. It is held in front of Chen Jinggu's shrine, as it is believed in the region that Madame Chen protects children from growing up safely, so the event is thankful for her protection. The people of Matsu Islands have a tradition of placing gifts in front of Chen Jinggu's shrine in order to pray |
