En los campos de refugiados de Goma, el pueblo congoleño se echó a las calles a celebrar el pase de la selección del Congo en el Mundial, recordando al líder anticolonial Lumumba, imitando su saludo.
Lumumba fue torturado, descuartizado y disuelto en ácido por EEUU y Bélgica por lograr la independencia del Congo... y ni así los imperialistas pudieron borrarlo de la historia, 65 años después de su asesinato, el pueblo sigue recordándolo.
The 20th century produced a generation of African leaders who challenged colonialism, apartheid, economic dependency, and foreign influence in their countries. Many paid a heavy price for their political beliefs and activism.
Among the figures are Patrice Lumumba of the Congo, Thomas Sankara of Burkina Faso, Steve Biko of South Africa, Amílcar Cabral of Guinea-Bissau and Cape Verde, Samora Machel of Mozambique, and Muammar Gaddafi of Libya. Although their political ideologies, goals, and methods differed, each became a symbol of resistance and self-determination for many people across Africa and the Global South.
Patrice Lumumba became the first Prime Minister of the independent Congo in 1960 and advocated for genuine political and economic sovereignty. Thomas Sankara introduced ambitious reforms aimed at reducing poverty, increasing literacy, and promoting women's rights in Burkina Faso. Steve Biko played a major role in South Africa's Black Consciousness Movement, encouraging Black South Africans to reject the psychological effects of apartheid. Amílcar Cabral helped lead the struggle against Portuguese colonial rule, while Samora Machel became Mozambique's first president after independence. Muammar Gaddafi remains one of the most debated figures in modern African history, praised by some for his pan-African vision and criticized by others for his authoritarian rule.

Congolese fans were excited to see Vea standing in support of the team, but the US turning him back isn't surprising b/c his presence is a direct indictment of what the gov't and CIA did to Lumumba, and the present day exploitation and subjugation of Congo, her people, and Africa
