Undated, 1970s or 1980s?
August 3 became an historic date in Guinea-Bissau and Cape Verde. On that date in 1959, PAIGC, the liberation movement, was involved in organizing a major dockworkers' strike at the Port of Bissau. The Portuguese authorities broke up the strike by force, leading to what became known as the Pidjiguiti massacre, in which at least fifty people were killed and several hundreds wounded. This poster celebrates that day. The year when this poster was produced is not known. Size: 55x33 cm.
