Work through each sentence at your own pace. You will hear it once, then again — then it is your turn. The sentences this week move from saying where you are located, who you are , to asking who others are.

In 1954, the United States government and the CIA overthrew Guatemala's democratically elected president — not because he threatened American security, but because he threatened an American fruit company's profits. President Jacobo Árbenz tried to redistribute unused land back to starving peasants. The United Fruit Company, which controlled 42% of Guatemala's land and left 85% of it idle, called it communism. The Secretary of State and the CIA Director — both former lawyers and board members of that same company — agreed. What followed was Operation PBSuccess: a covert campaign of psychological warfare, fake radio broadcasts, bought priests, bribed officers, and a ragtag rebel army of 480 men that toppled a democracy in nine days. The coup reversed every reform, returned the land to the corporation, and set off a 36-year civil war that killed an estimated 200,000 people. This is the full story of how bananas, Cold War paranoia, and corporate greed destroyed a nation.

How did a relatively unknown military captain become one of the most discussed political figures in modern Africa?In this cinematic documentary, we examines the rise of Ibrahim Traoré, the history of Burkina Faso, and the struggle over sovereignty, security, economic independence, and Africa’s right to determine its own future.Born in the small town of Bondokuy, Traoré began not as a politician or member of a powerful dynasty, but as a geology student and soldier serving during one of the most dangerous periods in Burkina Faso’s modern history. His journey from the front lines to national leadership would eventually place him at the center of an international debate about military governance, Pan-Africanism, foreign influence, institutional strength, and national self-reliance.This documentary explores:* Burkina Faso’s history under French colonial rule* The revolutionary legacy of Thomas Sankara* The security crisis that destabilized the Sahel* Ibrahim Traoré’s childhood, education, and military service* The political upheaval of 2022* His rise from army captain to head of state* Burkina Faso’s changing relationship with France* The Alliance of Sahel States* Gold, agriculture, infrastructure, and economic sovereignty* The difference between revolutionary promises and lasting results* Why millions across Africa and the diaspora are watching his leadershipTo his supporters, Ibrahim Traoré represents a new generation determined to reclaim African sovereignty and build stronger, more independent nations. To his critics, his leadership raises serious questions about military rule, democratic institutions, transparency, and whether bold rhetoric can produce durable national progress.Marquett Burton approaches the story through the lens of history, leadership, civilization, and institution building—asking not merely what Traoré intends, but what must ultimately change for Burkina Faso’s transformation to endure.Because history does not judge leaders by applause alone.It asks:Did the people become safer?Did institutions become stronger?Did opportunity expand?Did the nation become more resilient?The final chapter of Ibrahim Traoré’s story has not yet been written.Continue the ConversationThis documentary connects to the principles explored in The Black Code, Marquett Burton’s educational framework examining leadership, economics, discipline, institution building, civilization, and Pan-African thought.Explore The Black Code Classroom at:SKOOL.COM/Marquett/ClassroomGreat civilizations are not built by spectators. They are built by disciplined students of history, principled leaders, and communities prepared to transform ideas into action.Do you believe Ibrahim Traoré can create lasting transformation in Burkina Faso, or will history judge his leadership differently?
