‘BURKINABÈ RISING: the art of resistance in Burkina Faso’ by iara lee (a Cultures Of Resistance film)
Can a small African country inspire us all to unite and resist? The people of BURKINA FASO have shown us that if we come together, we can change the world!! Discussing her latest film, BURKINABÈ RISING, director Iara Lee talks about how the people of Burkina Faso rose up to remove a despotic president who had been glued to power for 27 years. The story is an inspiration not only for the rest of Africa-but for people all over the world seeking to confront tyranny and corruption with art, unity, and creative resistance.
