And the white people were deaf <br>to the dark voices of independence.<br>The Portuguese settlers had been promised a land of plenty, and <br>the local people would be their willing serfs. Foreign legion soldiers <br>helped them flee the wrath of the exploited. Back in Portugal again, <br>dipping their hands in manual work, the African dream was over.<br> Photos never tell a story it’s a blank canvas made up of shadows <br>and the unspoken. Memories will be sweet and often untrue. <br>People who had to return back to poverty, will insist they brought <br>civilization to Angola, especially now that the avenue of Liberty, <br>in Luanda, is potholed.</div><div style="margin:10px 0"><br /></a><br />poem by <a href="http://en.citatepedia.ro/by.php?a=Oskar+Hansen">Oskar Hansen</a><div class=q> <img src="https://www.citatepedia.ro/g/32share.png" style="float:left" alt="Share"> <script type="text/javascript" src="//s7.addthis.com/js/300/addthis_widget.js#pubid=citatepedia" async="async"></script><div style="display:inline-block" class="addthis_sharing_toolbox" data-url="http://en.citatepedia.ro/comments.php?id=473476" data-title="Angola the African dream de Oskar Hansen" data-description="Angola, the African Dream.
