Farida Nabourema: MONETARY COLONIALISM in Africa & oppression in TOGO
In this powerful interview, Togolese activist Farida Nabourema provides a deep dive into Togo’s ongoing struggle under one of Africa's longest-standing autocratic regimes. She paints a stark picture of life under a "thug regime," where Togolese citizens are treated as hostages rather than citizens, enduring decades of oppression, economic exploitation, and human rights abuses. Nabourema details the impact of the CFA franc currency, originally a colonial tool, which still ties Togo’s economy to French control. This system forces the country to store its reserves in France and allows France to set monetary and fiscal policies, leaving Togolese citizens vulnerable to devaluation, inflation, and restrictive economic policies.
As an activist with a family history of resistance, Nabourema reflects on her personal journey of activism, initially inspired by her father and grandfather’s struggle for Togo’s independence from colonial rule. She discusses the limitations of traditional resistance methods and her realization that Bitcoin could offer a unique form of financial independence for Togolese citizens. Through Bitcoin, Nabourema sees the potential for financial equality, resistance, and economic freedom, noting that it bypasses restrictive banking systems that are weaponized by authoritarian regimes.
Nabourema calls on viewers to understand Togo’s plight, challenge international support for oppressive regimes, and become allies in the fight for justice. She stresses that this struggle isn’t just about supporting Togo but about building a more just world, free from exploitation. Through this conversation, Nabourema provides insights into the resilience of Togolese citizens and how decentralized finance could serve as a path toward liberation.
