In this episode of Lumumba’s Africa, the professor takes the viewer to the heart of the Sahel to dissect the radical and transformative vision of one of Africa’s most enigmatic and revolutionary leaders – Thomas Sankara. Often called ‘Africa’s Che Guevara’, Sankara’s brief but explosive four-year rule in Burkina Faso was not just a political shift, it was a total societal reboot. Join Professor Lumumba for a look at revolutionary statecraft, the price of true independence, and the enduring flame of Sankarist ideology that still inspires a continent.
