Concerning the independence of the Portuguese territories in Africa, I wrote a book “From Goa to Goa”, 2020, which focuses a little on the decolonisation of Mozambique and resettlement in Portugal. This is however, from a personal perspective. Carolina Costa Sent from my iPhone > On 2 May

Dear Jules, We must look strange going around with our cameras photographing gravestones. LOL.  I think digitisation of those records is the need of the hour and somehow an appeal must be made to the government to make this a priority. They could even make it a paywalled site earning thousands
