" -Letterboxd review (https://letterboxd.com/film/sankara-and-that-day-they-killed-happiness/) "« Friends, the documentary on Thomas Sankara on Raitre is one of the most beautiful things I have seen on Italian TV in the last ten years. The story of Sankara and how he transformed Burkina Faso is the story of how Africa could have been (and could be). He carried out the largest vaccination campaign ever seen, gave five liters of water and two meals a day to all citizens, fought corruption, sold all the Mercedes to declare Renault 5 the state car. He explained very well to the world and the UN how debt (the new form of colonialism) was strangling Africa. He said that “happiness”, and nothing else, should be the goal of a State. After his death, Burkina Faso fell back into poverty. A special thanks to France and the United States for having supported the coup that eliminated him. » Cecilia Strada" -https://www.thomassankara.net/ (machine translation) Wed, 08 Apr 2026 22:23:02 GMT https://validator.w3.org/feed/docs/rss2.html PeerTube - https://tankie.tube https://tankie.tube/lazy-static/avatars/3ba3ff73-a8b6-49c9-add8-9653ef090c7f.webp https://tankie.tube/videos/watch/55282c4d-c9b3-48a8-b1a7-494bddbf106f All rights reserved, unless otherwise specified in the terms specified at https://tankie.tube/about and potential licenses granted by each content's rightholder.
