I am from Burkina Faso, and, I can tell you, this man is still revered and even called prophet by many of us. He was a blessing to our country and would have achieved more on the continent. His friend Compaore has recently been sentenced to life emprisonment and is in exile, but this is not enough to comfort us because we are still an underdeveloped country. That would have been different if Sankara was still alive. We are still crying for this big loss...

Comrade, I say this with nothing but love. Sankara left a road map to salvation. He is gone and isn't coming back, but he last left to the people of Burkina Faso the means to their salvation. Through revolution the people of Burkina Faso can continue the work he started. Power comes from the masses of the people💙

What makes me so sad is that this is not the history we are taught in our African schools. We are taught about the Christopher Columbus and do on but nothing that reminds us Africans about how strong we can be and how we can change our fate on our own if we want to.

This man was the face of the third world, the voice of the voiceless. Next time someone tells me "socialism never worked", I will tell them about this great man. Imagine if him and Gaddafi were both still alive today, the whole middle east and Africa would be totally different. The third world must unite. Asia, the Middle East, Africa, and Latin America all have the same oppressors, EUROPE AND AMERICA, and Thomas showed us how to fight back, he was more successful than any other socialist leader.

Baathism is somewhat reactionary in it´s believe, especially Qadaffi in it´s later live and work. No doubt he would achieve great things, though. And you could (nowadays) ad China and Russia to the list of imperialist Oppressors. Sadly Panthirdworldism oder something like this is utopian without a binding power like Redchina or the USSR. But hey, in the end, communism will win.

While T. Sankara was indeed dynamic and a great leader, he is not the only or best! You speak as though Afrika is a young continent with a young history! Afrika has the longest history, and many of Her ancient Leaders were as great if not greater than Sankara! I would say though that for the very short time he was given, he accomplished tremendous feats that many of these modern leaders have yet to begin to appreciate. K. Nkrumah of Ghana also did great things in his time as leader of Ghana.

When you see a nation progress and improve so drastically through Marxist rhetoric, such as this nation's story shows, how can you possibly still blame the fall of the USSR on communism? Just as this nation fell due to imperialism, so did the USSR. Imperialism is not something which can be fought by militaries and nations. Imperialism is something which MUST be fought by every decent citizen within EVERY nation. Whether you compromise the war crimes of your government's military, or you inform the public, or you fight for political power, if you have the ability to fight against imperialism and you do not, you are committing a disservice to your character and to the world which surrounds you.

I don't know if it's lost in translation, but it really is remarkable. There is absolutely none of that robot talk typical of politicians. He talks to people as friends and siblings, there's some kind of intimacy; there's a real sense of equality and respect.

The Ziaur Rahman of Burkina Faso. Ziaur Rahman is a Bangladeshi freedom fighter, Bir Uttom(2nd Hightest gallantry award given to the freedom fighters). He also ruled the country for a little less than 4 years and did a lot of great stuff. Free market economy, human resource export, industrialization etc. He was also targeted by people who couldn't endure the rise of a nation. He was brutally murdered in my hometown of Chittagong. May Allah bless such leaders, may Allah send us more leaders like them.

Thomas Sankara was an upright man. He was a patriot for his nation and Africa. Such people are not loved by the corrupt and those who love material goods. Blaise Compaore and his companions were very uncomfortable since they couldn't steal and enjoy under his leadership. God rest his soul in peace, he loved people so much.
