Black Lions
For other uses, see Black Lion.
The Black Lions were an anti-fascist resistance movement formed to fight against Fascist Italy during the occupation of the Ethiopian Empire in World War II.
As Bahru Zewde notes, in spite of its "marginal impact on the Resistance" the Black Lions made "eloquent attempts to give the struggle coherent ideological and political direction."
