Abstract

Amílcar Cabral’s legacy transcends conventional African narratives, embodying a profound challenge to established paradigms. Through his revolutionary contributions, Cabral not only reshaped the discourse surrounding African liberation but also sparked a transformative shift in our understanding of identity, resistance, and postcolonial transformation. His insights into the complexities of national liberation and his emphasis on culture as a catalyst for change continue to inspire scholars and activists alike to reimagine Africa’s past, present, and future.
