# Keiko (song)

## History

Reino Aventura ("Adventure Kingdom" in English) was a park located in Tlalpan in Mexico City. It opened to the public in March 1982 as the biggest amusement park in Latin America. Keiko was purchased from Marineland in Ontario, Canada, and was one of the new attractions aimed to improve the park.

Musart Records had the best selling teen singer to carry out this agreement, Lucerito.

# Victor Basch

Basch Viktor Vilém, or Victor-Guillaume Basch (18 August 1863/1865, Budapest – 10 January 1944) was a French Jewish politician and professor of germanistics and philosophy at the Sorbonne descending from Hungary. He was engaged in the Zionist movement, in the Ligue des droits de l'homme (president from 1926 to 1944) and in Anti-Nazism.
His father was the journalist and political activist, Raphael Basch. Born in Budapest in 1863, Victor Basch emigrated with his family to France as a child, and later studied at the Sorbonne. In 1885 he was appointed professor at the University of Nancy, and in 1887 at the University of Rennes, where he became friend with Jean Jaurès. During the Dreyfus affair Basch was the leader of the Dreyfusards at Rennes, who were placed in a serious and difficult position when the case was tried in that city. Both as a Jew and a Dreyfusard, Basch was subjected to persecution at the hands of the fanatical anti-Semitic populace. In a 1916 interview cited by his biographer and granddaughter, the French historian Françoise Basch, Victor Basch declared, " I'm really a Jew. I struggle and suffered for my Jewishness." However, biographer Françoise Basch underscores that her grandfather identified with his family history and the suffering of persecuted Jews, and not with Judaism as a religion. As both a member of the League against Imperialism created in Brussels in 1927, and as President of the Ligue des Droits de l'Homme from 1926–1944, Basch was one of the architects of the Popular Front. He fought and suffered for the principles of legal and social justice as well as human rights.
On 10 January 1944, Victor Basch and his wife, Ilona Basch (née Helene Furth) aged 81, were taken from their home in Lyon and assassinated by Joseph Lecussan and Henri Gonnet of the antisemitic Vichy French Milice Française under orders of the regional chief Paul Touvier.

## Literary works

His published works include an important study:
* "(Essai critique sur) L'Esthétique de Kant", Paris, 1896; the first volume of a work in 4 volumes on the history of esthetics;
* "(La) Poétique de Schiller";
* "La Vie Intellectuelle à l'Etranger";
* "Les Origines de l'Individualisme Moderne"
* L'indivisualisme anarchiste, 1904
* Max Stirner, 1904
* Titian, 1927
* "Schumann, A Life of Suffering", 1931, translated from French by Catherine Alison Phillips
* Essai d'esthétique de Kant, 1936
He also contributed frequently to the "Siècle" and the "Grande Revue" of Paris.
# Carrier Corps

The Carrier Corps was a labour corps created in Kenya during the First World War to provide military labour to support the British campaign against the German Army in East Africa.

## Service

Whereas the Germans, commanded by Paul von Lettow-Vorbeck, armed and trained African askaris to create an effective guerrilla force able to live off the land; the British attempted to deploy Indian Army troops under Jan Smuts and keep the King's African Rifles as internal security troops, with limited success. Not only were the Indian Army unused to the terrain, the need to feed a large body of foreign soldiers presented severe logistical problems, as troops in the interior had to be supplied over long distances without rail or road lines of communication. To deliver one kilogram of rice to the interior it could take 50 kilograms of rice at the coast—most of it being consumed en route to feed all the porters needed to carry it inland. The British Administration formed a military labour organisation, the Carrier Corps, which ultimately recruited or conscripted over 400,000 African men for porterage and other support tasks.
The effect on many of the native East African population, then still largely tribal, of being mobilised and then enduring considerable hardship for a remote and largely irrelevant foreign cause had significant effects in the long term, both highlighting the fallibility of the European presence in Africa (as armed askaris readily killed white men), and raising the political awareness of Africans as to the need to stand up for their own interests. The organisation of the Carrier Corps was a remarkable feat of improvisation by a small number of officials of the East African Protectorate's administration, under a District Commissioner Lt Col Oscar Ferris Watkins. Watkins and his officials faced a constant struggle against his superior's excessive demands upon the Carriers and to conscript further native manpower.

## Legacy

The Carrier Corps is commemorated on the War Memorials in Kenyatta Avenue, Nairobi and Jomo Kenyatta Avenue, Mombasa. The 14,000 men of the Northern Rhodesian contingent of the Carrier Corps are commemorated on the Mbala War Memorial at the entrance to the town of Mbala (formerly Abercorn) in Northern Zambia. They came from across the territory, with a large contingent from what was then Barotseland in North-Western Rhodesia. The Barotse were recruited by the British South Africa Company Native Commissioner, John Henry Venning, who marched with them to the East African border.
Several East African towns have quarters named after the carrier corps presumably because members of the corps were given housing in these places. Such quarters include Kariakor in Nairobi, Kariakor in Voi, Kariakoo in Dar es Salaam and also in Dodoma.
