There was an indigenous student protest where some of the Black Student Association reps spoke(one quarterback people were swooning over, one skinny turtleneck guy trying to rile up the crowd), and after it all died down I went up to the turtleneck guy and asked if he was the one putting up all the Sankara fliers across town.
Unsurprisingly he was, and we got along great. Apparently, he was a Maoist immigrant and was radicalizing the BSA.
Once I also saw a collection of people in suits waiting for a train and they had burkina faso pins etc. I asked if they were from there, they said they were a diplomatic envoy coming from a meeting, and I told them how Sankara was a hero to the entire world, and that we needed another as soon as possible. They were overjoyed to find someone in the west talking of Sankara that way.
