I never heard of this guy but apparently the French assassinated him because he wanted his country and Africa to become self-sufficient and just basically fix it. >WHY ARE THEY SO POOR? >WHY CAN'T THEY FIX THEIR OWN PROBLEMS?

>>8320681 okay, from wiki domestic policies were focused on preventing famine with agrarian self-sufficiency and land reform, prioritizing education with a nation-wide literacy campaign, and promoting public health by vaccinating 2.5 million children against meningitis, yellow fever and measles Other components of his national agenda included planting over ten million trees to halt the growing desertification of the Sahel, doubling wheat production by redistributing land from feudal landlords to peasants, suspending rural poll taxes and domestic rents, and establishing an ambitious road and rail construction program to "tie the nation together". On the localized level Sankara also called on every village to build a medical dispensary and had over 350 communities construct schools with their own labour. Moreover, his commitment to women's rights led him to outlaw female genital mutilation, forced marriages and polygamy, while appointing females to high governmental positions and encouraging them to work outside the home and stay in school even if pregnant.[6] government suppressed many of the powers held by tribal chiefs such as their right to receive tribute payment and obligatory labour. administration was also the first African government to publicly recognize the AIDS epidemic as a major threat to Africa. He sold off the government fleet of Mercedes cars and made the Renault 5 (the cheapest car sold in Burkina Faso at that time) the official service car of the ministers. He reduced the salaries of all public servants, including his own, and forbade the use of government chauffeurs and 1st class airline tickets above is good

his government eschewing all foreign aid, nationalizing all land and mineral wealth increasingly exerted authoritarian control over the nation, eventually banning unions and a free press, which he believed could stand in the way of his plans.[6] To counter his opposition in towns and workplaces around the country, he also tried corrupt officials, counter-revolutionaries and "lazy workers" in peoples revolutionary tribunals these policies are bad

Whether people like to admit it or not, a weak Africa is in our best interest. We can beat around the bush, say it is the fault of this or that, say it is because they are niggers or Muslims or another shade of non-white but the fact of the matter is, we need Africa to be dirty poor and a shithole.

>>8320903 >"Sankara’s assassins were guided by imperialism, which could not allow a man with the ideas and actions of Sankara to lead a country on a continent so exploited for hundreds of years by international imperialism, colonialism, and neocolonial governments that do their bidding. Sankara’s political ideas will endure, like those of Patrice Lumumba of Congo and Amílcar Cabral of Guinea-Bissau, also assassinated by traitors at the behest of the empire." >— Ulises Estrada, a key organizer of Che Guevara's 1966-67 guerrilla mission to Bolivia. I don't know, it is pretty sad when I think about it.

>>8321143 Erm.. no. I have worked with UNICEF in East Africa. The seeds that were handed out were sterile (I don't know whether it was Monsanto or not). It was during a famine and those farmers would line up again next year to get those "aid" seeds again. They are bought with aid money. Us aid workers just relaxed, drank, played poker and had sex with prostitutes after handing out food, tents and logging the IDPs. As for the international aid and "investment", there are strings attached. For example, the government in Mali got shit loads of aid from France and they HAVE to spend it on French products, mostly military grade weapons, etc. Sankara's policies would have helped his country more than any foreign power could.

>>8321401 >surely it is the fault of UNICEF for handing them out? Yes it is their fault but you are missing the bigger picture. This happens because we need them to be dependent on us so that we can keep buying them sterile seeds. NGO "aid" falls into the hands of administrators, government officials, militiamen and everything in between. What little is left is usually used to buy them sorghum, corn and sterile seeds. We almost went into Somalia because there was a mini famine in southern Somalia but the terrorist group/militia wanted a cut of the aid and since, under strict conditions from the US and EU, we couldn't comply, they said, "we won't let you in because you are not Muslims", to save face. it was fucked up. Aid is probably the worse thing that has happened to Africa since their "decolonisation" and since we need their markets open for exploitation, they can never have anything other than western backed neoliberal governments. Otherwise they will get destabilised, overthrown or even assassinated.
