Cuba, Africa, and Apartheid’s End: Africa’s Children Return! examines the historic dimensions of the Cuban Revolution’s solidarity with Africa through the lens of Cuba’s role in the battle of Cuito Cuanavale and the southern African national liberation and anti-colonial struggle more broadly.
Cuba, Africa, and Apartheid’s End: Africa's Children Return! examines the history and impressive dimensions of the Cuban Revolution’s solidarity with Africa. Cuba’s role in the southern African national liberation and anti-colonial struggle was the largest and most consequential manifestation of the island’s commitment to Africa. A key moment was the 1987–1988 battle of Cuito Cuanavale, which involved Cuba and Angola on one side, and South Africa and its allies on the other. Cuito Cuanavale contributed the end of apartheid and has assumed legendary status within the Cuban Revolution and the southern African liberation movement.
