In interviews spanning the voices of perpetrators and survivors and witnesses who collected, smuggled out, and revealed the facts of Wiriyamu, this painstaking oral history reconstructs both the truth of the massacre and the story of its exposure. * AbdoolKarim Vakil, Lecturer in Contemporary Portuguese History, King's College London, UK *\u003cbr\u003eThis collection of oral testimonies constitutes a major body of work. It is an irrefutable proof of the massacre which took place in this area and contains all the numerous elements which confirms Portugal’s genocidal strategy along the river Zambezi since 1972. The research reveals sufficient evidence for the UN to reopen the dossier on Portugal’s genocidal practices during the Fascist era. A dossier that without any debate, was inexplicably closed in 1974. * Joao-Manuel Neves, Lecturer in Portuguese, University of Paris Sorbonne Nouvelle, France *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eList of Illustrations List of Maps List of Tables Foreword Preface Acknowledgements 1.
