Tribute to Amílcar Cabral – A Centenary in the United Souls Hall of Fame

September 12, 2024, marks a pivotal moment: the 100th anniversary of the birth of Amílcar Cabral, a central figure in the anti-colonial struggle in Africa. Through his legacy, Cabral embodies a powerful cultural resistance, an ideal that resonates deeply with the philosophy of United Souls.

An agronomist, founder of the African Party for the Independence of Guinea-Bissau and Cape Verde (PAIGC), and a revolutionary visionary, Cabral established himself as a moral and intellectual leader. His ideas, shared at the Tricontinental Conference in Havana in 1966, continue to inspire the struggle for justice and dignity. His commitment to creating African unity in the resistance against colonialism and his call for African elites to commit "class suicide" in support of the people remain benchmarks for liberation movements.

On this occasion, United Souls is highlighting one of the first creations in our collection, designed by artist Joy Hanoun, in tribute to Amílcar Cabral. This model, an integral part of our vision, celebrates the strength of struggle and the duty to remember. Wearing this creation today is a way of reaffirming our pride and gratitude for those who have left their mark on history with courage and integrity.

Join us in celebrating this tribute to Cabral by wearing this piece from our United Souls collection and sharing in his spirit of resistance. Together, we continue his fight for a more just future.
