Projekt Beschreibung
No Gold for Kalsaka
BY MICHEL K. ZONGO
Since the dawn of time, the people of Kalsaka, a small village in the African country of Burkina Faso, have lived off their land. All of this ended with the arrival of a multinational mining corporation, which expropriated local landowners and exploited the natural resources, leaving the local people with nothing. NO GOLD FOR KALSAKA follows the struggle of the local community to denounce this injustice and to claim back its dignity, as it battles the injustices inflicted upon it.
