Field notes
The date selector lets a visitor jump to a birthday or anniversary, while the month lists provide a year-round browsing route. The featured October 31 account names the protests, Compaoré's 27-year rule, and his departure to Côte d'Ivoire. The page describes companion films as about sixty seconds each and presents a book as an expanded version of the 366-day calendar.
