"We must choose either champagne for a few or safe drinking water for all."

- Thomas Sankara


Water is life! Legendary among great African leaders of any era, the mighty yet selfless Thomas Sankara led his nation away from colonialism with an equitable and just vision for his country's future. Upon ascending to power, Sankara promptly sold the governmet fleet of Mercedes Benz cars and instead purchased a small fleet of inexpensive Renault 5 cars, the cheapest car available in the country at the time. He also refused air conditioning in his presidential office, reasoning that since only a very small elite could afford this luxury, it would be unfair for him to enjoy it. This was a president of the people who despised ostentatious displays of wealth and waste. He lived frugally, often riding his bicycle to work and spending his free time playing guitar in a local band. His impeccable character and devotion to the grassroots people earned him the moniker, "Africa's Che Guevara". Celebrate the great legacy of this mighty warrior for freedom when you rock this premium t-shirt, only from Black Dominion. 🇧🇫
