GUTHRIE, Zachary Kagan. Race and Labor in Beira during the Era of Imperial Reform. e-JPH [online]. 2021, vol.19, n.2, pp.76-109. Epub 31-Dez-2021. ISSN 1645-6432. https://doi.org/10.26300/6h82-w449.
This article examines the history of race and labor in Beira following the imperial reforms of the 1960s. The reforms promised a new era of Luso-Tropical racial equality, and some workers gained improved conditions following their implementation. Nonetheless, the racial realities of Portuguese rule continued to limit African workers’ possibilities even despite the reforms. At the same time, the rigid emphasis on non-racial rule made it increasingly difficult for workers to openly criticize colonial racism. Using letters from workers published in the newspaper Voz Africana, the article examines how the history of urban labor in Mozambique illuminates the broader history of race and reform in the late colonial Portuguese empire.
