Arts and Literature
Art and literature both have influenced Mozambique throughout its history. This is because as a country, Mozambique's history has been heavily influenced by propaganda. Marxism came to Mozambique through pamphlets and flyers, but that is all it takes to spark a new idea and eventually, a new revolution. As culture, Mozambique's colonization by Portugal gave its art and literature a very European feel to it. During the Renamo operations, the US began spreading capitalism through flyers, propaganda, and political cartoons. Especially in Mozambican history, writing and art have both been mediums through which people have expressed their political ideals and beliefs. In the next 30 years, I predict that Mozambican art and literature will continue to evolve and change alongside its growing and changing population.
