Thomas Sankara is important for anti-colonialists and, I would argue, for patriots in all countries everywhere. He spoke to the United Nations about puppetism.

So far as I can tell Sankara does seem to have done a fair deal of good for his people & it is thus a pity he was killed--most especially by those who didn't care a touch for his nation or people. I salute him tho' a ghost he may be... An interesting attempt at synthesis.

Jesus and Mohammed and Gautama Budda were “overmen". Nietschze was a sick genius with a lot of good ideas and the tortured oedipal complex of the sun of a protestant theologian, more the stuff of a little man complex than a nazi “ overman".

Sankara represents slave morality.
