Stanowisko
Cabral held that liberation movements need theory, but theory grown from their own reality rather than borrowed formulas. In “The Weapon of Theory” he reworked Marxism: the motor of history is the development of productive forces, so peoples without classes are not outside history, and liberation means a people regaining its own history. The educated petty bourgeoisie must commit “class suicide” and identify with workers and peasants. National liberation is also an act of culture: culture sustains resistance, yet must be renewed critically, not idealised. He urged his comrades to tell no lies and claim no easy victories. Freire, who later worked in Guinea-Bissau, drew on him.
Życie i kontekst
Amílcar Cabral was born in 1924 in Bafatá, Portuguese Guinea, to Cape Verdean parents, and grew up partly in Cape Verde. He studied agronomy in Lisbon, where he met other students from the Portuguese colonies, and carried out an agricultural census of Guinea. He co-founded the PAIGC and from 1963 led its armed struggle. In January 1973 he was assassinated in Conakry, months before Guinea-Bissau declared independence.
