Reviews
"The book's essayists bring some complex and interesting analysis-- interlaced with Cabral's biography and an overview of his writings--to the fore. They examine the theories of class suicide and re-Africanisation, which are intrinsically linked to Cabral's revolutionary consciousness. The book's thorough scrutiny of the impact of Cabral's struggles and African liberation movements bring perspective to his legacy and also draw attention to Black movements in the Americas, where the dialectics of culture and ideology as dissected by Cabral served as an essential tool for the unpacking of social realities. Cabral's global vision of struggle also touches on his fight for the emancipation of women, described as his rejection of that era's 'masculinist and militarist images of struggle'." --The Africa Report "As a collection it is a timely one and will be valuable for anyone seeking to be introduced or reacquainted with debates about revolution, colonialism and culture, nationalism, and pan-Africanism."--Claudia Gastrow, Feminist Africa

Synopsis
2013 marked the 40th anniversary of the assassination of Amilcar Cabral, revolutionary, poet, liberation philosopher, and leader of the independence movement of Guinea Bissau and Cap Verde. Cabral's influence stretched well beyond the shores of West Africa. He had a profound influence on the pan-Africanist movement and the black liberation movement in the US. In this anthology, contemporary thinkers commemorate the anniversary of Cabral's assassination. They reflect on the legacy of this extraordinary individual and his relevance to contemporary struggles for self-determination and emancipation., On the centennial of Amíiacute;lcar Cabral's birth, and fifty years after his passing, Claim No Easy Victories brings to life the resonance of his thought for today's freedom movements. "Never has it been more certain that our victory depends principally on our own actions. Tell no lies, claim no easy victories . . ." - Amílcar Cabral World-renowned revolutionary, poet, liberation philosopher, and leader of the anticolonial independence movement of Guinea Bissau and Cape Verde, Amílcar Cabral's legacy stretches well beyond the shores of West Africa. His profound influence on the pan-Africanist movement and the Black liberation movement in the United States and the English-speaking world spans the ages--and is only growing in an era of renewed anti-imperialist internationalist struggle. In this unique collection of essays, radical thinkers from across Africa, the United States, and internationally commemorate Cabral's life and legacy and his relevance to contemporary struggles for self-determination and emancipation. Claim No Easy Victories serves equally as an introduction or reintroduction to a figure and militant history that the rulers and beneficiaries of global racial capitalism would rather see forgotten. Understanding Cabral then and now sheds light on the necessity of grounding radical change in the creation of theory based on the actual conditions within which movements develop. The depth and dimension of Cabral's theoretical ideas and revolutionary practice of building popular movements for liberation are assessed by each of the authors and critically reanimated for a new generation of freedom fighters. The book features contributions by: Kali Akuno, Samir Amin, David Austin, Jesse Benjamin, Angela Davis, Bill Fletcher Jr, Mireille Fanon-Mendèegrave;s France, Lewis Gordon, Firoze Manji, Asha Rodney, Patricia Rodney, Olúuacute;féeacute;mi Táaacute;íwòograve;--and others., On the centennial of Amílcar Cabral's birth, and fifty years after his passing, Claim No Easy Victories brings to life the resonance of his thought for today's freedom movements.
