I used to love sharing this, on #Frelimo and #SamoraMachel, but a friend told me of the darker side of the struggle. Lives are lost! May they all rest In Eternal Peace

While the Mulungushi club & Frontline States did their bit, the number 1 warrior in Africa's total liberation & number 1 Frontline state, was Fidel CASTO and CUBA!

He turned the tide in The Battle of Cuito Cuanavale. Let me share a video ImageImage

Marx had postulated that 'force is the midwife of every old society pregnant with a new one'
— MUHOOZI KAINERUGABA

✳️ Excerpt from book 'Battles of the Ugandan resistance: A tradition of #Maneuver'

#TraditionOfManeuver Image
It is the ambiguity about the role of individuals in the making of history that presents the greatest problem with the deterministic notions inherent in Marxism's conception of history.

— MUHOOZI KAINERUGABA

✳️ 'Battles of the Ugandan resistance'
#TraditionOfManeuver
For Gen Tumwine, mental preparation in terms of sharpening convictions and demonstrating victory is possible, is much more important than the amount of arms one has access to initially. It is people who win wars not weaponry.

The key lesson for Uganda's politicians and generals ...

"Has it ever occurred to you, that we can all be winners?"
#BattleOFCuitoCuanavale 1/2
#Diplomacy
#War
#WinWinSituation

PIK BOTHA - SOUTH AFRICA:
Has it ever occurred to you that we could both be winners?

JORGE RISQUET - CUBA:
What do you mean?
PIK BOTHA: If we carry on with this war, we will both be losers. If you withdraw your troops on the basis of having given Namibians independence, Castro can say he won.

And I say to white voters of South Africa, 'I got rid of the Cubans troops.' That makes us both winners! 2/2 Image

📌Start the year with a LONG READ!

✅ The scene...

▶️ Nelson Mandela, conducting his own defence in his 1962 trial.

▶️ Presiding, is a 'white' magistrate

▶️ Mandela starts with an application asking magistrate to recuse himself....

omalley.nelsonmandela.org/omalley/index.…

#GreatReads2021🎆
MANDELA: A judiciary controlled entirely by whites and enforcing laws enacted by a white parliament in which we have no representation, cannot be regarded as an impartial tribunal in a political trial where an African stands as an accused

#GreatReads2021🎆
MAGISTRATE: After all is said and done, there is only one court today and that is the White Man's court. There is no other court. What purpose does it serve you to make an application when there is only one court. What court do you wish to be tried by?
