History Uncut: Samora Machel Funeral
On 20 October 1986, the Mozambican presidential plane crashed into a remote part of South Africa (whose government was blamed, but never admitted guilt). To his people, Machel was more than a leader; he was a national hero, and this is evident in the outpouring of grief, the long patient queues of mourners, and the international dignitaries in this footage of his state funeral.
