As any activity within the islands was impossible, the activists remained abroad from where they pursued a modest anti-colonial struggle. When the Portuguese Revolution of 25 April 1974 created space for the struggle in the islands, Sãotomean students in Portugal were sent back home to wage the fight for total independence. This article traces these endeavours from the years in exile until the turbulent months in 1974 that paved the way for the archipelago’s independence on 12 July 1975. ER -
