After dedicating his life to the movement, a series of purges within the organisation lead to him being wrongfully branded an apartheid spy and traitor. So begins Oiva Angula's terrifying story of betrayal and torture by his comrades, which culminates in imprisonment in the omalambo - the hidden pits in Lubango, Angola, into which he, along with many others, is cast and left to die. SWAPO captive threads together personal narrative and national history, including childhood impressions that hint at a racially segregated existence, the rising tensions sparked by the apartheid regime's rule over South West Africa, his father's role in early liberation movements, and Angula's own politicisation and decision to join the struggle."-- $c Publisher's description. 600 10 $a Angula, Oiva. 610 20 $a SWAPO $v Biography. 610 20 $a People's Liberation Army of Namibia $v Biography. 610 27 $a People's Liberation Army of Namibia. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00589387 610 27 $a SWAPO. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00525464 650 0 $a Political prisoners $z Angola $v Biography. 651 0 $a Namibians $z Angola $v Biography. 651 0 $a Angola $x History $y South African Invasion, 1978-1990. 650 7 $a Armed Forces. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00814586 650 7 $a National liberation movements. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01033606 650 7 $a Politics and government. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919741 650 7 $a Soldiers. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01125233 651 7 $a Africa, Sub-Saharan. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01239520 651 7 $a Angola. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01208401 651 7 $a Namibia. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204890 651 7 $a South Africa. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204616 648 7 $a 1900-2099 $2 fast 655 7 $a Biography. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423686 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 655 7 $a Personal narratives. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423843 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231018025450.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=6BA67278462211E9A3F20F6897128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
