The Black Lions were an anti-fascist resistance movement[1] formed to fight against Fascist Italy during the occupation of the Ethiopian Empire in World War II.[2][3]
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."[4]
