What happens when a country finally decides it’s tired of playing dress-up in someone else’s clothes? Burkina Faso just threw a massive wrench in the whole colonial hangover; ditching the ridiculous wigs and gowns that have been clinging to the country’s legal system like a bad fashion trend. But this isn’t about fashion, is it? No, it’s about power, pride, and throwing colonialism out the door. Imagine for a second; what if your whole legal system was dressed in the same outfits used by the people who once ruled over you?
Feels ridiculous, right? Well, that's exactly what Burkina Faso just dumped. But here’s the thing: this decision isn’t just about style. It's about Africa finally saying, “We’re done with this nonsense.” It’s a powerful rejection of the colonial mindset that’s been ingrained into the African psyche for far too long. But what does it mean?
Let’s find out.

In 2022, Ibrahim Traoré wasn’t a household name. He was a relatively unknown military captain in Burkina Faso—young, unassuming, disciplined. But behind that calm exterior was a deeply strategic mind, shaped by years of witnessing foreign interventions that promised peace and delivered nothing. While international troops flooded the Sahel and drone strikes turned villages into craters, the people of Burkina Faso were still dying. The nation, like much of Africa, had outsourced its security—and paid the price in blood. As the African Diaspora saying goes, "I am because we are, and we are because I am."

President Ibrahim Traoré, Burkina Faso has not only broken free from economic shackles but has also laid the foundation for a future built on self-reliance, industrial strength, and cultural revival. He has defied global financial institutions, reclaimed national wealth, and rebuilt the backbone of his country’s economy—without a single handout from the West.
But revolutions don’t happen without a fight.
Traoré’s journey has been one of defiance, strategy, and sheer willpower. From rejecting IMF loans to nationalizing gold mines, from boosting food production to cutting government corruption at its core—his leadership has rewritten the rules of governance.

Description: Scholars Dr. Julius Garvey and Robin Walker with Dr Joyce King, discuss dynamic methods and modulates to best take Black Education and Studies forward, at multiple levels, including the Academic and Community level. The importance of bridging the cultural language gaps between English, Francophile and Spain speaking worlds is keenly sited, as such cultural and intellectual ‘cross pollination’ often brings new insights and ideas to the fore that often wouldn’t be achieved otherwise. Dr Joyce King gives a beauty example of this, recanting when a Brazilian friend and academic on a tour of Egypt they both took together, discovered and observed that the historic place name where an iconic Ancient Temple was located, called ‘Dendera’ bore many similarities to the name of the Palmares Legend and wife of King Zumbi, the iconic Afro Brazilian freedom fighter called ‘Dandara’( the spelling is slightly different, but the pronunciation from the locals was reminiscent ). Something that someone with a different cultural background might not have picked up so easily. On another note, that example also beautifully alludes to the cultural continuity of African brilliance and resilience across time, space, the seven seas and continents across the globe.About the Podcast: In this Revolutionary Podcast series of conversations, the son of the late great Marcus Garvey, the venerable Dr Julius Garvey shares and explores deep thought ideas and concepts with Robin Walker ( The Black History Man ) about the relevance and need for Pan Africanist principles today. How we can utilise and apply them effectively to uplift the Black Diaspora worldwide to bring about the change we need in this modern day and age. In the Principle of ‘Sankofa’ ( Looking back and Remembering ) the African origins and contributions to History, Politics, cooperative Economics, Religion, Science and Technology and Philosophy are explored in depth to inform the listener about the immense achievements of the Black Diaspora as a collective, and to show how we can apply unique African thought concepts and philosophies to our own lives as individuals and communities and to continually progress and improve ourselves as a ‘People’ in the present and the future for the better.
