Dear Starchild,
Small, landlocked, sub-Saharan Burundi, scarred by ethnic conflict and civil war, is the poorest country in the world. 90% of its 12 million citizens live on subsistence farming in extreme poverty. Amidst endemic corruption and crime, less than 5% of the population has electricity.
Yet, come see how economic freedom is transforming life in Burundi. In downtown San Francisco on Wednesday, November 2, Silicon Valley entrepreneur John Chisholm will host the West Coast premiere of Papa Coriandre, Atlas Network’s new short film <https://atlasnetwork-dot-yamm-track.appspot.com/2zTTuFqFV0MqPkhpTU4zf9C-lMEPl-TJXRjNY-_MPzW9gfxj7gwFbWF3Ea22UlNtDprpibOgjx6zaeBKYH7Khj7m0OtVnm_SukGv3cYgsi9gsC-9zniPhQaBqYSwJFtAFa6q2QdfkR9nknG3mOXZeTKYZCgY6CUrndUxuzjKTKtZyzPAGMTdsHxI3U4brHcfAENfvuQ1zFTyU098r6RtM5zSsQx3ftQZ8dbNsCM0TBZZcVS-MkryZC6D_jbjZpKt-XW5v5nlDlfc>, part of the Atlas Network Dignity Unbound series <https://atlasnetwork-dot-yamm-track.appspot.com/2YcC6CRGTjfAy9yQnwe52BqWbA8xRRL6bNaXaobQYiyZjfxj7gwGxfzDfioosff2teiwf7HrSd0P5kKm775Idxl8MVmXrHHba3JyQzqoKue0g3DekOMxjMJv5f2hdGCX6UV_BjKA-qlJl-SaNMB78EujxA8BTgvNmLyxbJlbnWjXOoEpdn-HtyRYItO9F3Yzu4-f-Yuab6xJsRG-VjZf6Sv6li759M0WEu9hlt7WRQI1pwPLzrw> that has documented the impact of legalizing street vendors in India, land reform in Ukraine, ride-share apps in Nepal, and more.
