Deep Roots and Bitter Greens: Legacies of Colonial-Era Forced Displacement in Western Acholiland
REFNo: SS419ES
For my Master’s thesis research I studied the way British colonial officials used Sleeping Sickness control measures to justify the forced relocation of the entire population of western Acholiland between 1911 and 1920. For my PhD dissertation research, I will use qualitative interview methods to explore how the history of this early colonial-era forced displacement is remembered and understood in Acholiland today. I intend to examine what sorts of socio-cultural changes colonial-era displacement precipitated in Acholiland. At the same time, though, I hope to trace examples of cultural resilience and examine how Acholi culture and society recovered from these upheavals over the course of the intervening century.
