We Are Heirs of the World’s Revolutions
Thomas Sankara was an iconic figure in the Pan African movement who led the revolution of 1983 to 1987 in Burkina Faso.
Collected here are five of his most important speeches, offering an inspiring introduction to his thinking, and insights into why his popular anti-imperialist policies were seen as such a threat by Western powers.
The book shows how his revolutionary government enacted sweeping changes, including introducing universal healthcare, fighting hunger and illiteracy, introducing green policies, reversing economic decline and challenging sexist oppression.
