"We must dare to invent the future. Everything man is capable of imagining, he can create." When Thomas Sankara gained power in Burkina Faso in 1983, he saw his first task as expunging the effects of colonialism. A dedicated pan-Africanist, he believed that Africa could sustain itself. He rejected all foreign aid and nationalised land and mineral wealth. This book brings us Sankara in his own words, with a selection from his writings and interviews from 1983 until his tragic and untimely assassination in 1987. An African leader and intellectual in many ways ahead of his time, Sankara's ideas are as current today as when first formulated.
