How can a people overthrow 500 years of colonial oppression? What
can be done to decolonize mentalities, economic structures, and
political institutions? In this book, which includes the first
translation of the text 'Analysis of a Few Types of Resistance' as
well as 'The Role of Culture in the Struggle for Independence,' the
African revolutionary Amilcar Cabral explores these and other
questions. These texts demonstrate his frank and insightful
directives to his comrades in Guinea-Bissau and Cape Verde's party
for independence, as well as reflections on culture and combat
written the year prior to his assassination by the Portuguese
secret police. As one of the most important and profound African
revolutionary leaders in the 20th century, and justly compared in
importance to Frantz Fanon, Cabral's thoughts and instructions as
articulated here help us to rethink important issues concerning
nationalism, culture, vanguardism, revolution, liberation,
colonialism, race, and history. The volume also includes two
introductory essays: the first introduces Cabral's work within the
context of Africana critical theory, and the second situates these
texts in the context their historical-political context and
analyzes their relevance for contemporary anti-imperialism.
