  • Throughout History there have been many executions that have been carried out by firing squad. One of these which took place under the cloud of the Cold War was Patrice Lumumba's, the First Prime Minister of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. He was a man who came from humble beginning to become the Prime Minister for a short time, but he was seen by America as a threat as he would ask the Soviets for help during a military coup. He was overthrown and was then imprisoned under harsh conditions.
    But then the authorities in Katanga made the decision to sentence Patrice Lumumba to death, and that evening a hastily gathered firing squad was readied to carry out his execution. Lumumba was forced against a tree and then the executioners shot their weapons, and immediately he was executed. It was a swift and brutal end for the man who many in the DRC saw as a martyr.

    Il est clair que Patrice Lumumba a eu une influence majeure sur l'histoire politique de l'Afrique, en tant que leader nationaliste et panafricaniste. Sa lutte pour la libération du Congo et la souveraineté africaine a inspiré de nombreux autres militants et dirigeants, et sa mort a suscité une vague de colère et de mobilisation dans tout le continent. Il reste une figure importante de l'histoire africaine, et son héritage continue d'influencer les luttes politiques et sociales d'aujourd'hui.
    Vive les #Wazalendo

    Some of this footage is absolutely heartbreaking. Of all the dreadful and at times unspeakable acts committed by the European colonialists in Africa, those by the Belgians were perhaps the very worst. It is said that 10 million Congolese were killed during Leopold 11’s reign. 10 million! That places him alongside Hitler, Stalin and Mao Zedong as among the most despicable leaders in history, responsible for the deaths of tens of millions of people.

Nice plants and animals but the most brutal and most corruptest peoples of the world ! Let them be under themselves until there will be enough civilization to let them out of the DARK Continent ! Beware of the cruel continent that has never seen a peaceful period! And they are proud of this behaviour !

    As if apologies justify decades of humiliation, rape and torture of thousands of people. Lumumba and his fellow mates were, before, murdered, tortured for days, until they couldn't move a singel finger. What a shameful page of modern hinstory, and of course Lumumba should have never asked the Soviet Union for help, of course. Of course?
