In 1977, after Afrobeat pioneer #Fela #Kuti criticised the military regime in his native Nigeria, 1,000 government soldiers raided his compound, Kalakuta Republic.

They beat and raped its inhabitants and threw Kuti’s 78-year-old mother from a second-storey window, ultimately killing her.

Despite the attack, Kuti continued to use his music as a way to speak out.
