Unity and Struggle cover

One of the world's greatest revolutionary leaders, Amílcar Cabral's long and arduous campaign for the liberation of Portuguese-dominated Africa is explored in this vivid compilation of his most influential speeches and writings.

Unity and Struggle is the compelling account of Amílcar Cabral’s fight against imperialism, discrimination and injustice, as well as his progressive advocacy for religious toleration and gender equality – all of which combined to make him one of Africa’s foremost political leaders.

Introduction by Basil Davidson.
