Amilcar Cabral and the Liberation Struggle: Education as the Corners for Revolution

Join militant historian Sónia Vaz Borges for a lecture on the revolutionary struggle of the PAIGC and life and legacy of Amilcar Cabral.

“The people of ‘Portuguese’ Guinea took up arms to free their country from colonial domination in 1963, under the leadership of the Partido Africano da Independencia da Guiné e Cabo Verde (PAIGC). Amilcar Cabral, the founder of the PAIGC, saw the necessity of freeing their country from Portuguese colonial domination. The experiences of other liberation movements, the growth of neo-colonialism in the newly ‘independent’ African countries, and above all the development of the movement within Guinea itself made clear the necessity of a true socialist revolution if any real change was to be made.

To revolutionary movements throughout the world, the struggle in Guinea is of prime importance as an outstanding illustration of the need to study one’s own concrete conditions and to make the revolution according to these conditions, rather than relying on the experience of others, valuable as this may be.”

-From Amilcar Cabral – Revolution in Guinea Bissau. An African People’s Struggle. London: Stage 1. 1969

Oliver Laurence North (born October 7, 1943) is an American political commentator, television host, military historian, author, and retired United States Marine Corps lieutenant colonel. He was convicted in the Iran–Contra affair of the late 1980s, but his convictions were vacated and reversed, and all charges against him dismissed in 1991.

North is primarily remembered for his term as a National Security Council staff member during the Iran-Contra affair, a political scandal of the late 1980s. The scandal involved the illegal sale of weapons to Iran to encourage the release of U.S. hostages then held in Lebanon. North formulated the second part of the plan, which was to divert proceeds from the arms sales to support the Contra rebel groups in Nicaragua, which had been specifically prohibited under the Boland Amendment. North was granted limited immunity from prosecution in exchange for testifying before Congress about the scheme.

The ⁣CIA-backed Contras were filling their coffers by collaborating with drug traffickers then flooding U.S. borders with cocaine from South America that was funneled into the Black community to continue US government repression of political dissent, agitation and revolutionary activities.

Racism in the United States has been a major issue since the colonial era and the slave era. Legally sanctioned racism imposed a heavy burden on Native Americans, African Americans, Asian Americans, and Latin Americans. European Americans (particularly Anglo Americans) were privileged by law in matters of literacy, immigration, voting rights, citizenship, land acquisition, and criminal procedure over periods of time extending from the 17th century to the 1960s. Many non-Protestant European immigrant groups, particularly American Jews, Irish Americans, Italian Americans, as well as other immigrants from elsewhere, suffered xenophobic exclusion and other forms of discrimination in American society.

Major racially structured institutions included slavery, Indian Wars, Native American reservations, segregation, residential schools (for Native Americans), and internment camps. Formal racial discrimination was largely banned in the mid-20th century, and came to be perceived as socially unacceptable and/or morally repugnant as well, yet racial politics remain a major phenomenon. Historical racism continues to be reflected in socio-economic inequality. Racial stratification continues to occur in employment, housing, education, lending, and government.

The 20th century saw a hardening of institutionalized racism and legal discrimination against citizens of African descent in the United States. Although technically able to vote, poll taxes, acts of terror (often perpetuated by groups such as the Ku Klux Klan, founded in the Reconstruction South), and discriminatory laws such as grandfather clauses kept black Americans disenfranchised particularly in the South but also nationwide following the Hayes election at the end of the Reconstruction era in 1877. In response to de jure racism, protest and lobbyist groups emerged, most notably, the NAACP (National Association for the Advancement of Colored People) in 1909.

This time period is sometimes referred to as the nadir of American race relations because racism in the United States was worse during this time than at any period before or since. Segregation, racial discrimination, and expressions of white supremacy all increased. So did anti-black violence, including lynchings and race riots.

In addition, racism which had been viewed primarily as a problem in the Southern states, burst onto the national consciousness following the Great Migration, the relocation of millions of African Americans from their roots in the Southern states to the industrial centers of the North after World War I, particularly in cities such as Boston, Chicago, and New York (Harlem). In northern cities, racial tensions exploded, most violently in Chicago, and lynchings--mob-directed hangings, usually racially motivated—increased dramatically in the 1920s. As a member of the Princeton chapter of the NAACP, Albert Einstein corresponded with W. E. B. Du Bois, and in 1946 Einstein called racism America's "worst disease."

The Jim Crow Laws were state and local laws enacted in the Southern and border states of the United States and enforced between 1876 and 1965. They mandated "separate but equal" status for black Americans. In reality, this led to treatment and accommodations that were almost always inferior to those provided to white Americans. The most important laws required that public schools, public places and public transportation, like trains and buses, have separate facilities for whites and blacks. (These Jim Crow Laws were separate from the 1800-66 Black Codes, which had restricted the civil rights and civil liberties of African Americans.) State-sponsored school segregation was declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court of the United States in 1954 in Brown v. Board of Education. Generally, the remaining Jim Crow laws were overruled by the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act; none were in effect at the end of the 1960s.

Segregation continued even after the demise of the Jim Crow laws. Data on house prices and attitudes toward integration from suggest that in the mid-20th century, segregation was a product of collective actions taken by whites to exclude blacks from their neighborhoods. Segregation also took the form of redlining, the practice of denying or increasing the cost of services, such as banking, insurance, access to jobs, access to health care, or even supermarkets to residents in certain, often racially determined, areas. Although in the United States informal discrimination and segregation have always existed, the practice called "redlining" began with the National Housing Act of 1934, which established the Federal Housing Administration (FHA).

An Anti-African spirit will control your thinking to belong to a Group, groups or self-delusion that eventually DESTROY YOUR African Spirit. You ask Can thoughts change the course of events and change our reality? It is possible to get a different reality from what we are, if we start to change the way we think. If you follow Groups that causes You to nurse dominating thoughts that hate your natural given race-based culture, religion and spirituality you have an anti-African mentality. Which groups? They include among many…Political parties, Religious Groups, Economic ideologies like capitalism all give false Hope and champion foreign ideologies…they are anti-AFRIKan
Religious Groups like-Catholics, Christianity, Islamic groups, even the Nation of Islam are not promoting a purely African Spirituality. We include Hebrew Israelite religion, Majority of Thinkers, Modern Educators and many other groups. Beware of gurus like…. Sadhguru. If You do not reverence your righteous ancestors and call upon the Divinities You are operating under the possession of an anti Afrikan spirit. You are a disgrace to yourself, to nature, righteous ancestors and Divinities. We need to exorcize this anti-African spirit daily. HOW? By knowing that African spirituality refers to the religious and philosophical beliefs and practices of the African people. It is a unique and diverse system of beliefs that is rooted in African history, religion, and culture. The practice of African spirituality encompasses various aspects of life, including birth, death, and the afterlife. It is an integral part of the African heritage and has a profound impact on the African continent and its people. One of the most significant aspects of African spirituality is the concept of the color bar. This term refers to the segregationist policies that were implemented by anti-African groups during apartheid in South Africa. These policies aimed to restrict the movements and rights of African people, and they had a profound impact on the development of African spirituality. Despite the efforts of these anti-African groups, African spirituality has managed to endure and flourish, and it continues to be an important part of the African heritage.
African spirituality is also deeply connected to the African history of slavery and the slave trade. The slave trade was one of the most brutal and inhumane practices in human history, and it had a profound impact on the African people. Despite the efforts of slave traders to suppress African spirituality, the African people were able to maintain their cultural and spiritual traditions through their music, art, and other forms of expression. African spirituality is characterized by its focus on the spirit and the connection between the individual and the divine. The concept of the holy spirit is central to African spirituality, and it is believed that the spirit is present in all things, including nature, animals, and people. This belief is reflected in the traditional African spiritual practices, which focus on connecting with the spirit and seeking guidance from the divine.
One of the key aspects of African spirituality is the concept of night spirit, which is believed to be the time when the spirits of the dead are able to communicate with the living. African spirituality also places a strong emphasis on the importance of ancestors and their role in guiding and protecting the living. This belief is reflected in the traditional African spiritual practices, which often involve communing with the ancestors and seeking their guidance.
Whether you are an African or someone interested in learning about African spirituality, exploring this rich cultural tradition is a rewarding and enlightening experience. It is the major goal of this post.
You must Know the impact of belonging to any Group. This is the first and primary antidote. There is a deadly anti-African Spirit that may end up destroying billions of Africans on earth. You can block it and develop POWER and wisdom in your Soul. Amen!

Bla Xit was invited to witness the graduation of IT students from IIHT.

We captured some of the ceremony to share with you to give you an insight into what a College Graduation looks like here in the Gambia. Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
As you know Bla Xit are out and about capturing and sharing as much as we can about life in Africa, however recently we have been receiving a lot of emails about the usual negative coverage of Africa by mainstream press outside of our Continent. This is is not a new phenomena and nor will it be, this is just the scandalous the sensationalism that sells and promotes and demonstrates their continuous influence within and outside of Africa. Widely exaggerated claims only serve to further taint the reputation of our Continent. The problem needs to be tackled in its Continent of origin in Europe. Africa Diaspora News with Phill Scott has my comments should anyone want to hear my views. Do not let a targeted and premeditated media attacks dissuade you from coming home as I suspect that was the motive behind it. Lets stand strong and unite and not let anyone divide us.
