The author looks at the former Belgian Congo during the turbulent sixties. He also looks at the events that followed, including American involvement, in the bleeding heart of Africa. Mercenaries from apartheid South Africa were also some of the most important players on the Congo scene during that period.
The author also looks at the role a number of African countries such as Tanzania played in the Congo to help the pro-Lumumbist nationalist forces during that critical period in the history of the continent as colonial rule was coming to an end.
Another important player on the Congo scene was Che Guevara together with a number of Cuban troops who entered Congo through Tanzania. Tanzania served as a conduit and as a rear base for them during their Congo mission.
The author takes an in-depth look at the role of Che Guevara and the Cubans during the Congo crisis and at a number of other events which unfolded during that period. The Congo crisis was one of the most important political developments in the history of post-colonial Africa. And its impact is still felt today as the country continues to suffer from years of abuse and neglect, including external intervention, a fate it has endured since the sixties.
