Our brief study will consider the Guyanese author as part of a great movement of the African diaspora, which in those years already had a long history and had given rise to some very prominent figures, teachers and fighting comrades of Walter Rodney, and which some social scientists group together, under the name of Black Marxism as part of a Black Radical Tradition. Some biographical data of the pan-African author are mentioned and then some specific characteristics of the independence process in Tanzania are analyzed. Finally, some aspects of Walter Rodney's analysis of the process are addressed. Este artículo se propone una primera aproximación al proceso histórico tanzano en la visión de Walter Rodney, a partir del análisis de algunos documentos inéditos en castellano, que abordan la situación concreta de su desarrollo, en particular, Class Contradiction in Tanzania (1975). Nuestro breve estudio considerará al autor guyanés como parte de un gran movimiento de la diáspora africana, que en aquellos años tenía ya un amplio recorrido y había dado algunas figuras muy destacadas, maestros y compañeros de lucha de Walter Rodney, y que algunos cientistas sociales agrupan bajo el nombre de Marxismo Negro como parte de una Tradición Radical Negra. Se mencionan algunos datos biográficos del autor panafricano y analizan luego algunas características específicas del proceso de independencia en Tanzania. Finalmente, se abordan algunos aspectos del análisis que realizara Walter Rodney sobre el proceso.
