Socialist revolutionary leader of Burkina Faso, (1983-1987) Thomas Sankara's speech to the African Unity Organisation Summit of 1987, in which he calls for his country to refuse to pay debts to international imperialist powers.
What is more wonderful is the fact that he is NOT reading a speech, he is speaking truth from the heart. I could not help but cry when watching this video. RIP, great son of Africa, we will always love you.
Yes you are right but I don't think it is the principal for the truest of speakers.
An absolute champion! A young charismatic military captain who realised the potential of Burkina Faso and built the country in under 4 years. Literacy rate and self-sufficiency improved drastically. This speech is wonderful. The indirect control of neo-colonialism is far more dangerous than direct control of colonialism. We do not owe the Europeans a penny! He is similar to Fidel Castro and Che Guevara, but I do not wish to call him the AFRICAN Che Guevara. He is his own man, and man of himself and no one else!
he was a shining star true leader
at the same time you can't tell your enemy your purpose and your drive and your truth!!!he was too obvious that is why he was killed by his own friend. At times you must be Machiavellian I'm not sure he really understood this. Too bad for Burkina. AT LEAST 4 NOW.
@@sahrfoyoh9214 great point there as someone who read the prince by Nicola Machiavelli, you cannot be obvious to your enemies but your agenda and intentions need to be addressed to your people which makes your objective obvious to your enemies. So in short it doesn't matter weather you hide it or not, you need to put fear in your enemies internally and externally. He put fear in the external enemies but forgot the internal who was his "best friend".
If u are still listening to the wise words of our beloved hero Sankara, in 2022, please gather here .
I am speechless!!! I am sure your ideas are a live.
love from Somalia.
+Hodan Hassan R you somali?
Mo Hersi yes, I am Somalia100%
Hodan Hassan wow me to. I didnt know any of the sistahs will be interested in real shit like this Bravo!
Mo Hersi Ooh what do you want me to interest? Hassan Sheikh or the Corrupted King of Saudi Arabia? Well i am sorry, Thomas Sankar is man and half that is why he was killed.
Hodan Hassan hey didn't mean to offend just the first time I seen a sistah concious that all.
Its funny some african leaders who attended that summit n did nothing have now left great legacies theoretically.....Sankara made me cry....the best president ever to exist in the twentieth century in the whole world
Tears come to my eyes when I see his clips. I love Sankara too much.
True revolutionary heroes never die - look at how he makes the corrupt leaders in the audience tremble with this speech!
You can look at the facial expressions of the other leaders they knew this brotha was right but they also knew he was digging his grave
Very true and there were all clapping but all coward.
WE LOVE YOU THOMAS SANKARA
I was thinking about the crisis in Greece and my thoughts came back to this speech.
He was killed 3 after that speech ! Proud of you Thomas Sankara ♥️RIP🇧🇫👊🏾
The sun continues to shine in Africa, with earthly riches far beyond one's imagination, a land that is bounded in chains of colonial masters in the disguise of foreign aid, whilst referred to as a third world. Africa watered by endless bloodshed and the assassination of voices of reason. That day will come where our beautiful land rises and claims glory, Africa unite!!!
Ashay my brotha, civil rights ain't going to do it for us, blacklivesmatter ain't going to do it for us, Pan-Africanism is the final frontier. THE TIME IS NOW! ✊😡♚
The Greatest President Africa has ever had. Salute to captain Thomas Sankara
Thomas Sankara. Massive heart!! In the spirit of John the Baptist.
Preparing the way for the coming Kingdom.
great Thomas Sankara I am proud of you
Its a scandal that African history doesn't teach about this great leader. What a great son of the soil!
That's the way a true leader talks. That's a man I would follow to the end.
Not only Africa, but even Europe and Americas should have leaders like him.
He cared about his, THE people more than anything else.
Shame people rarely mention this wonderful man and keep praising others like Mandela and his wife/ves, way far from Sankara and his valors.
Unfortunately Indoctrination guides on a global level.
If all world leaders were like him, we would have Heaven on earth
Sans doute c'est l'un des meilleurs président de l'histoire de l'humanité 😭😭😭
Thank you for the upload, only saw pieces before. That was already so impressive, but seeing it full is amazing! InshaAllah Africa will unite, be free and grow to become themselves. The wealthiest continent sould not have the poorest people..
Fierté africaine !! ❤
One of the African best leaders. I like this man.

you can tell some of the dignitaries there were definitely feeling something was gonna happen to him after this speech, and sadly they were right. RIP to Thomas Sankara, but may his example and legacy shine forwards forever!

Thomas Chev Sankala Africa needs brave,courageous leaders like you RIP HEROE
Je t'aime
WHAT A SOUL.
Un homme brave et audacieux
he was so woke
What would happen if all African countries refused to pay colonial debt?!
nothing will happen we only take our organization young man but where is the one who has real heart and stands up and says we don't pay?
Of course I respect your wisdom
What would happen if you stop voting neo Colonialists like Jubilee in Kenya
Ask Gaddafi.
MY HERO, LONG LIVE THOMAS SANKARA
Absolutely ingenious!!!
Een echte die weet waar de problemen liggen en ik zou zelfs zeggen dat mensen nu verdwijnen met de zelfde woorden of uitspraken !!!! Rip
R.I.P THOMAS SANKARA MAY UR WISE WORDS N ADVISE RESIDE 4 EVER
great man!
🙇😀☝Thanks God our Honest President Magufuli he opened his eyes!😐&stay 💪 .l wish this mind forever.
And now his Dead
he was a brave man to speak out the truth
absolute king
Sankara est toujour la.🖤
I hate Sankara more than any other African leader. Why did he have to die so early 😭😭 How could such an intelligent and foresighted man ignore loud and clear security warnings from his own defense team!!! If Sankara had acted early and strategically to contain Campore and his rebels, he would have lived just a few years longer - just 2 or 3 or 5 extra years would have galvanised his plans to transform his people. With his pace and depth of knowledge 3 extra years would been worth decades of growth for the Burkinabe. I hate the complacency that took him so early
I hope most African President can adopt this virtue.
The upright man thomas sankara
God send
Notre Capitain, vive Isidore Noel Sankara! Malheur ‚à ceux qui baillonent les peuples! We salute you sankara
part 2???
Your are hero Thomas Sankara
grandee sankara!!!!
THIS GUY IS A GRAIN OF SAND IN THE DESERT!!!!
🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
#Afrika😭😭😭🔥💪🏿
Obama is literally AND figuratively haft the black man compared to Thomas Sankara! 😅😂
You give Obama WAAAYYYYYYY way way way too much credit there unfortunately. I wish it was the case that Obama was half the black man Thomas Sankara was.
That's African dream
long live his ideologies
Good vision
@adamlivs Black people didn't invent capitalism. It is a relatively modern system, which was preceded by feudalism. If black people did invent capitalism, which they didn't, it would not be something to be proud of.
Aaaaah!!!!!!!! Rhema...Rhema.... punchline aye!!!!!!! "whoever doesnt, let him jump into his plane and go straight to world bank... 'payeeee'"
THE VIDEO IS MADE AGAIN FOR what ?..........unknown
The only ones who think like this are the Eritreans
And then he is killed the same year in October...
Less than 3 months after this speech.
Vive le patriotisme ! A bas l'impérialisme !
"Those who want to exploit Africa are those who exploit Europe too. We have a common enemy." Amen! Down with them! Don't lose hope Africa. Don't lose faith Burkinabe. The upright people of the world are with you in this struggle.
heroafric
ok yeas....he had to go!
@adamlivs You are wrong. Capitalism is never a system that works, as Sankara would tell you! Islamic capitalism was as bad as ''white'' capitalism. White people are not bad in their nature, just as black people are not. However, it was Europe that, by chance, became dominant and oppressed people. White and black workers and peasants are brothers! VIVA LA INTERNATIONALE! VIVA SANKARA!
He deliberately does not speak about the fact that most of Africa's problems today not 50 years ago, are because of its leaders corruption and mismanagement of money they borrow (Which they are not forced to). If you borrow a loan you pay interest that is nothing new so you have to find ways to generate your own money and therefore not borrow, has any African leader done this?? Has any African leader created a situation where the country he leads is manufacturing or earning money through manufacturing a product out of its natural resources without any foreign input? They use the word “neo-colonialism” at will but if you do your research who are the real colonialists in Africa today? Who are the “chosen ones” who benefited when the colonialists left leaving their citizens in poverty??
***** Well said
***** thank you
Clearly you know nothing about Sankara...he was relentless in fighting corruption & refused foreign aid, that's why France did not like him. Please do not insult the legacy of this man...a simple Google search could help!
