"Cabral has not died"
(A Voz De Cabo-Verde, 1977)
Superb cover of the song by Os Tubarões: youtu.be/LZ26Q0rPxIE?si=a-ZbrAmPbY5NpPFf
It is a song about the assassination of Amílcar Cabral, a prominent anti-colonial leader. The song expresses the sentiment that Cabral's s spirit and the ideals for which he fought continue to inspire people, despite his physical absence.
Cabral was a key figure in the liberation movements of Guinea-Bissau and Cape Verde, leading the Partido Africano da Independência da Guiné e Cabo Verde (PAIGC).
He was assassinated on January 20, 1973, in Conakry, Guinea, shortly before Guinea-Bissau declared its independence.
