    ’Where is imperialism?” Look at your plates when you eat. These imported grains of rice, corn, and millet – that is imperialism.

    “The root of the disease was political. The treatment could only be political. Of course, we encourage aid that aids us in doing away with aid. But in general, welfare and aid policies have only ended up disorganizing us, subjugating us, and robbing us of a sense of responsibility for our own economic, political, and cultural affairs. We chose to risk new paths to achieve greater well-being.”

    Obligatory Thomas Sankara
