Hommage à Todd Matshikiza
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Aujourd'hui, 25 septembre 2023, je vais vous parler de Todd Matshikiza. C'était un pianiste, compositeur et un journaliste de jazz sud-africain.
Todd est né en 1921 (jour et mois de naissance non précisés) à Komani, en Afrique du Sud. Il est issu d'une famille de musiciens, était le fils de Samuel Bokwe (père) et Grace Ngqoyi Matshikiza (mère). Il est le dernier de sept enfants.
Diplômé en musique à Adams College à Natal et professeur à l'institut Lovedale à Alice, il enseigne l'anglais et les mathématiques aux étudiants, jusqu'en 1947.
Il enseigne pendant un certain temps et fonde la Todd Matshikiza School of Music, une école de musique privée, où il enseigne le piano.
En 1952, Matshikiza est invité à rejoindre le magazine Drum qui, sous une nouvelle direction éditoriale, s'adresse à un lectorat plus critique. Matshikiza, avec plusieurs journalistes d’investigation, est devenu l'un de ses premiers écrivains.
Parmi ses proches collaborateurs, son style d'écriture innovant est devenu connu sous le nom de « Matshikese » et se caractérise par une utilisation créative et ludique de la syntaxe et du style musical.
Todd s’est exilé en Angleterre avec sa femme et ses enfants pour fuir l’apartheid qui sévissait en Afrique du Sud. L’apartheid a été utilisé pour désigner le régime politique de l’Afrique du Sud de 1948 à 1991. À l’époque, le pays imposait explicitement la ségrégation raciale, instituant à travers tout un système de lois et de pratiques la domination et l’oppression d’un groupe racial par un autre, en l’occurrence celle des noirs par les blancs. 
Matshikiza a composé de nombreux titres dont le plus connu, Uxolo, qui veut dire « paix » et qui a été créé pour le 70e anniversaire de Johannesburg, capitale de l’Afrique du Sud. Ce morceau-hommage a d’ailleurs été commémoré par un Google Doodle le 25 septembre 2023.
L’un de ses morceaux – intitulé Hamba Kahle – a notamment été joué pour l’arrivée de la princesse Elizabeth à Bulawayo (ville du Zimbabwe) en 1946 et pour le Festival de musique de Johannesburg en 1950.
En 1958, il est également à l’origine de la bande originale de la comédie musicale King Kong qui sortira un an plus tard.

Hamba kahle, Sydney. It was short, but sweet. We are so happy you could make it home, even if it was only for 10 days. See you at your graduation in May. Finish well, my girl. We love you and are so proud of you! So classic Sydney to bring in the New Year while in a plane, crossing time zones.

Holding breath
So, I came to this NAISA really freaking nervous.
I hadn't been accepted in the last two conferences, and there'd been some particularly unsettling things told me about not seeing my work on African indigeneity as acceptable, and it made me freaked out when I got accepted and really excited.
But it also meant I came to Hamilton with my soul clenched, afraid of rejection, and particularly uncomfortable with the idea of my own complicated relations to indigeneity as a black American studying Zulu indigeneity and thinking of the historic alienations that I as a person in the diaspora experience whilst being mindful of respecting others spaces, especially one I've come to love as much as Aotearoa.
The welcome day saw me anxiously wandering onto the Waikato campus, wondering if I could/did belong, and every person I met, from Maori undergraduates to conference planners to American graduate students were kind and welcoming and I felt at peace.
While sitting in the kapa haka on Wednesday I turned and chatted with the man next to me, a Southern African man teaching in Victoria BC's indigenous governance program and we lapsed into isiZulu in the midst of the te reo Māori happening all around us. I met a fellow black woman professor who now works both in Aotearoa and New York and thinks about state relationships to belonging and constitutional documents. I've attended a series of amazing panels, each talking in some part about blackness explicitly--from blackness in Oceania, to black and native contestations in the US, to Ethiopian American student's understanding Sara Ahmed in the racist university spaces of Australia. I've felt seen, and understood, and part of something. People have been kind, have been sharing, have been part of a community with me.
Today, while leaving a panel with a friend, an older Māori woman made a direct beeline for me, never once breaking eye contact. She came up to me immediately, pressed her face and nose against mine, shared breath, and told me her name, her arrival to the conference, and then stopped, with a half smile.
"Are you Two Spirit?" she asked, using an umbrella term in some indigenous communities in North America for non-heterosexual or earlier gender-nonconforming or alternate gender formations.
"I....well, not quite," I stammered. "I'm black and queer and I think about my own indigene--"
"I'm takatapui," she interrupted, using the Māori term for a non-heteronormative person. "I saw you and knew you were one with us." She gestured to her daughter, nearby. "She is as well."
"Oh. wow," I said simply, overwhelmed. "We're glad you're here. We see you. You're here with us." She put her hands on both sides of my face. "I saw you over there, and said, 'there's one of us, here to visit.' Welcome here."
I blinked back tears forming in my eyes. "Thank you. Thank you so much."
"Thank you for being here. I have to go, but I wanted to say hello."
"Travel well," I said simply. "Hamba kahle," I said, repeating the farewell to her in isiZulu.
"Hamba kahle," she said back with a smile. "I like that."
The brisk winter wind whipped through my hair and I swallowed a lump in my throat. An unsolicited gift was given, one that was beautiful and complicated and loving. I felt grateful and unworthy and confused and thankful and overwhelmed at once.
There's a lot to think through here, but I'm so fucking grateful. I'm glad I get to be here and think and work and ponder and process and feel.

The right words
I smile and step in a car. I wave my hand and shout; “Hyvästi, Farewell, Adios!”
I drive, fly and walk around a planet. See the new worlds, meet the new people. Then waved my hand and shouted again; “さようなら, Farvel, Hamba Kahle!”
I travel by train, bike and run around the planet. Swim every ocean and lake, climb every mountain and hill. Then waved my hand and shouted again; “Namaste, Hwyl fawr, Bon vent!”
I never stay anywhere. Still, when I hear one word... “Tervetuloa, Welcome, Bienvenido, ようこそ, velkommen, Wamkelekile, Namaste, Croeso, Bienvenue...”
I know, I’m home.
