Collection "Pensées d'hier pour demain"
Cette collection du CETIM se propose d'offrir au public, jeune en particulier, de courts recueils de textes de divers acteurs qui, hier, furent au coeur de la lutte des peuples pour l'émancipation et dont, aujourd'hui, la pensée s'impose toujours comme de la plus grande actualité.

Né en 1924, dirigeant historique du mouvement pour l'indépendance de la Guinée-Bissau et du Cap-Vert, Amilcar Cabral a été assassiné à Conakry le 20 janvier 1973, trahi par certains de ses propres compagnons à la solde, selon toute vraisemblance, du régime colonial portugais.
L'indépendance de la Guinée-Bissau et celle du Cap-Vert furent officiellement reconnues quelques mois plus tard, en 1973 par l'ONU et respectivement en 1974 et 1975 par la Révolution portugaise des OEillets... Amilcar Cabral était alors déjà entré dans l’Histoire comme l'un des principaux héros de l’émancipation africaine !
La commémoration des 40 ans de sa mort et les premiers pas vers la libération nationale nous aident à comprendre à quel point la contribution de Cabral a été unique, mais aussi à quel point sa pensée reste pertinente aujourd’hui.

In mid-April, the London-based lawyers submitted what they described as “the most credible case”, backed with affidavits and listing in detail specific cases of human rights abuses. Not only that, the new dossier provided nitty-gritty details of alleged behind-the-scenes decisions and instructions that led to alleged human rights violations. According to documents seen by The Independent, the new dossier was seen to be “credible” because its main source was “an insider” who knew exactly what was happening. The attached affidavits to the dossier now provided the same human rights violations as Lukwago, Besigye and their lawyers in London had done. This time, however, they provided more detail and gave specific meetings, places and dates when decisions were taken and instructions given that allegedly led to gross human rights abuses. - See more at: http://www.independent.co.ug/cover-story/7905-tinyefuzas-new-war-against-museveni#sthash.uNA6QBPE.dpuf
