The new part of the project 'Lumumba's Africa' — 'Women in the struggle'.

Africa’s struggle against colonial rule is often associated with male leaders. Yet women also played a major role in resistance movements, leading uprisings, mobilising communities and challenging colonial authorities.

Nzinga Mbande, ruler of Ndongo and Matamba in present-day Angola, resisted Portuguese expansion for decades. Kimpa Vita, a Congolese religious leader, called for the restoration and reunification of the Kingdom of Kongo.
