- Title
“Now we don't have anything": remembering Angola through the lens of American missionaries.
- Authors
Sousa, Sandra I.
- Abstract
This article considers American foreign relations with Angola by exploring the role of Methodist missionaries in the country until the 1961 uprisings in the north. Focusing on interviews by three American missionaries who were imprisoned for three months by the Portuguese government, I will explore their perspective on Portuguese colonialism and the role that memory plays – in this case, memories that come from an “outsider" perspective – in shaping a better understanding of Portuguese colonial Angola.
