Cuba, Africa, and Apartheid’s End: Africa's Children Return!
examines the history and impressive dimensions of the Cuban
Revolution’s solidarity with Africa. Cuba’s role in the southern African
national liberation and anti-colonial struggle was the largest and most
consequential manifestation of the island’s commitment to Africa. A key
moment was the 1987–1988 battle of Cuito Cuanavale, which involved Cuba
and Angola on one side, and South Africa and its allies on the other.
Cuito Cuanavale contributed the end of apartheid and has assumed
legendary status within the Cuban Revolution and the southern African
liberation movement.

leading scholar on Pan-Africanism, has written the following appraisal:
"Cuba,
Africa, and Apartheid’s End is a definitive account of Cuba’s role in the
liberation of southern Africa, especially South Africa and Namibia, centering
on the Battle of Cuito Cuanavale. Isaac Saney skillfully and meticulously
chronicles the internationalism of the Cuban government and its people to repay
Cuba’s debt to Africa, the ancestral homeland of so many of its citizens."
