Shokanti 21 Music Video dir by Peter Da Silva produced by Marley Music and Djim Job
21 is a song of a young cape verdean who is becoming a man and questions his identity by telling the story of the people who suffered at the forgotten concentration camp for the sake of his generation
Tarrafal (also known as Campo da Morte Lenta, the "Camp of the Slow Death") was a prison camp in Cape Verde, then a Portuguese colony, set up by the dictator António de Oliveira Salazar after the outbreak of the Spanish Civil War (1936), where opponents of his right-wing authoritarian regime were sent. At least 32 anarchists, communists, and other opponents of Salazar's regime died there.

The camp was closed in 1954 but was re-opened in the 1970s to jail African leaders fighting Portuguese colonialism.

In 2006, the World Monument Fund named Tarrafal one of its 100 watched monuments.
