Description

Explore the life and political impact of Thomas Sankara, one of Africa's most significant anti-imperialist leaders. This book examines his belief that fundamental socio-political change requires a certain amount of madness, a philosophy that fueled the Burkinabe Revolution and influenced the 2014 popular uprising. Through the Black Critique series by Pluto Press, readers gain new insights into Sankarist political philosophies. The text analyzes his unique synthesis of Pan-Africanism and humanist Marxist politics. It also provides critical evaluations of his approaches to gender, development, ecology, and decolonisation. This work is essential for understanding his lasting legacies and their continued relevance in modern political discourse.
