Eduardo Mondlane

On this page we present a small selection of interviews with Eduardo Mondlane, who was highly articulate in both English and Portuguese, and had worked both as an international civil servant at the United Nations, and as a university lecturer at Syracuse University in the United States, acquiring useful diplomatic skills. The interview with Aquino de Bragança listed below was never published in its entirety; however, MHN believes that a recording of the complete interview still exists. The last interview listed below is not with Mondlane, but with his former bodyguard.
