We also want to appeal to your personal participation in this interactive website by inviting you to join the membership Kina Klub. It is designed to explore people, places and ideas, as an important learning process. The Kina Klub membership is free, with a few extra benefits. We aspire to attract curious professionals, and active, liberal, honest debate on issues affecting Africa and the world in general.
African books: We want to build a library of African books to include cultural, artistic and contemporary books, historical missives and philosophical and political tracts and so on. If you have a book or other published material, send it to us for display in our library section, which we hope has great prospects for growth. We can promote and sell them for you.
The written history and culture of Africa, at home and abroad, is not so readily available because of the limited access of African writers to the international publishing and distribution market. While the book trade is actually growing worldwide, it is virtually shrinking for the African book trade as the electronic media and economic crises gain a foothold through Africa.
