Description
Summary:Twenty editors of Christian newspapers and magazines in Africa came together earlier this year to discuss the challenges of their work.Arriving from points as widely scattered as Ethiopia and South Africa, Lagos and Nairobi, they spent nearly a month at the Africa Literature Center in Kitwe, Zambia, discussing both the theological and the practical. Nearly all serve in areas of rapid urbanization and technological revolution, and nearly all face restriction or censorship from their churches or their governments.Reproduced here are a few of the papers read by seminar participants. They reveal something of life on that changing continent; they also reflect problems that are common to those who try to edit Christians journals anywhere in the world today.
