Factual errors[edit]

This article's claims are false. Slavery was abolished in Angola in the 19th century. Camarinha (talk) 17:26, 25 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The article is full of factual errors and the sources used are often inadequate and unreliable. I have tried to improve some points, but much remains to be done. -- Aflis (talk) 14:17, 23 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I am interested in the use of the term ethnic 'minorities'. Does the author actually know what a minority is? The population of Angola was majority black. And, incidentally, Salazar could not have re-imposed forced labour in 1926, he did not join the government until 1928 (other than for a few days). Don't get me wrong, the article is very informative - but about the world-view of the writer, not about forced labour in Angola. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sam1930 (talkcontribs) 15:33, 24 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Revertion war[edit]

Most of Waide Piki's contributions would be ok if he didn't erase well sourced text. So I reverted to a previous version which includes most of Waide Piki's edits and preserves older sourced text. Miguel in Portugal (talk) 23:42, 3 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Anachronism[edit]

"Slavery in Angola existed since the late 15th century when Portugal established" - I'm pretty sure it existed there even longer then that. --197.228.4.41 (talk) 17:06, 7 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • In particular when the next sentence reads "A number of those peoples, like the Imbangala[1] and the Mbundu,[2] were active slave traders for centuries (see African slave trade)." Portugal did a lot of evil but you can't blame them for introducing slavery to West Africa! 2603:8000:A901:E732:4DE:C34B:FF87:6584 (talk) 02:01, 22 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Question[edit]

@Havsjö: did slavery happened in all Portuguese African colonies including Angola, Cape Verde, Mozambique, Portuguese Guinea (now Guinea-Bissau), and São Tomé and Príncipe? ColorfulSmoke (talk) 00:00, 24 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
