Bourgeois ideology, colonialism, and capitalism are tied together through a myth of European superiority. Amin shows how global history has been rewritten to justify imperialism, capitalism, and Western dominance — not just through violence but through powerful ideas.

Today in Labor History April 14, 1919: Workers in Limerick, Ireland, initiated a General Strike against the British military occupation. They ran the city as a soviet for two weeks. Workers printed their own newspaper and issued their own currency, which local businesses accepted. They also regulated food supplies to keep prices low and prevent profiteering. Numerous other soviets were created during the Irish War of Independence.

While Denmark financially supports Greenland with one hand, it plundered mineral resources from the colonized nation worth hundreds of billions of kroner with the other hand. Now a new documentary revealing this exploitation has been censored or "depublished" in Denmark

They've stolen the bride which I think proves my theory that the only reason Aliens would come to a backward world would be to interfere with the people there, sexually.

Thinking about what that British guy did to the Senitalese to make them fear outsiders for generations..

To anyone who tells people to put content warnings on images of people in impoverished countries suffering, like Palestine, because it makes them "feel uncomfortable": SHUT UP! You're made uncomfortable seeing someone other than yourself suffer? GOOD!! That means you have empathy, and given that there's barely anything you can individually do to stop their suffering, at least have the common fucking courtesy to acknowledge their suffering. #Palestine #Israel #freepalestine #colonialism

There is no hope for America. There is no saving America, only destroying it. We in America aren't suffering. We don't know what suffering is. The worst, most painful suffering you'd see in America is superceded by the average daily suffering of the working classes of colonized and semi-colonial countries. The labor aristocracies of imperial core countries have nothing to be liberated from other than their own existences.

l’entità sionista vuole distruggere sia il presente sia soprattutto il futuro dei palestinesi

Credo che ormai sia chiaro a tutti perché i bambini e le donne sono il principale obiettivo dell’esercito israeliano, nel senso che vengono scelti volontariamente come bersagli: perché gli abitanti dell’entità sionista detta Israele temono di non riuscire a riprodursi abbastanza in fretta, e quindi di venir sopravanzati numericamente dai palestinesi. Se il sopravanzo fosse notevole, mantenere lo stato di apartheid risulterebbe molto più difficile, e la possibilità di rivolte da parte degli oppressi più probabile. Da qui al genocidio il passo è breve, e infatti è stato compiuto. Ora ci avviamo a gran passi alla soluzione finale, senza che non dico l’America, ma nessuno dei governi europei, compreso il nostro schifoso governo fascista, abbia fatto un gesto per fermarli. Buona domenica delle palme a tutti, mi raccomando pregate e non scendete in piazza perché date fastidio

A story about #CulturalHeritage, #colonialism and justice, conveyed through play:

12 dadikwakwa-kwa shell dolls, traditionally used to teach kinship, literacy, numeracy and about women’s health – have been given by the Indigenous Australian #Anindilyakwa community to Manchester Museum on one condition: that children play with them once a year.

"#Poilievre’s decision to support a candidate engaging in #residentialschool denialism is disappointing but not surprising. There is a clear pattern of denialism and anti-#Indigenous #racism within the Conservative Party of Canada." https://canadiandimension.com/articles/view/pierre-poilievre-and-the-conservatives-have-a-residential-school-denialism-problem

When you're busy stealing a people's land, you treat everyone there as the enemy.

#Colonialism in a nutshell!

“Colonialism demands history begin past the point of colonization precisely because, under those narrative conditions, the colonist’s every action is necessarily one of self-defense. The story begins not when the wagons arrive, but only after they are circled." - Omar El Akkad

This. Every day of the week and twice on Sundays.

"Adventurer's trek claim 'ignorant', say islanders"

David Hempleman-Adams' daughter Camilla had an astonishingly expensive holibob ski-touring a Canadian island, and made some grandiose claims about being the first woman to do so. Cue the somewhat surprised locals, who pointed out that their womenfolk - and even men - have been doing it on a yearly basis since before history was invented.

Note also the politician's apology:

"I am truly saddened that the coverage of my journey may have caused concern or upset..."

Well, no: the upset is mainly about the claims you made, not the journey or its coverage.

#Indigenous "#ReMattering": A conversation with #DavidShaneLowry, PhD

"Sheeva Azma talks to Dr. David Shane Lowry about his work magnifying #IndigenousPerspectives from an anthropological perspective, including in science and technology, and science communication.

"Dr. Lowry serves on the faculty at the University of Southern Maine. He earned his BS from MIT and both Master’s and PhD from UNC Chapel Hill, all in anthropology. He is an anthropologist and member (citizen) of the Lumbee Tribe of North Carolina. He grew up in the #Lumbee community in Robeson County, North Carolina. In 2021-22, he was Distinguished Fellow in #NativeAmerican Studies at MIT, where he led a new conversation at MIT about the responsibilities of MIT (and science/technology education, more generally) in the theft of American Indian land and the dismantling of American Indian health and community. From 2022 to 2023, he was Visiting Senior Fellow in the School of Social Policy at Brandeis University. At USM, Dr. Lowry runs the #IndigenousRelationshipsLab as a place for and commitment to #justice and re-mattering of American Indian and other Indigenous peoples from #Maine, to #Massachusetts, to #NorthCarolina. David writes and hosts conversations on InTrust [link below]."

#DavidShaneLowry Calls for More Than a #LandAcknowledgement in Talk Hosted by Robert S. Peabody Institute of Archeology

by Christian Estrada and Tayla Stempson
Oct 18, 2024

"On Indigenous Peoples’ Day, the Robert S. Peabody Institute of Archeology hosted a talk by David Shane Lowry, a member of the #Lumbee Tribe and an Assistant Professor of Anthropology at the University of Southern Maine. His discussion centered on settler #colonialism, the #LandBack movement, and the importance of returning #IndigenousLands to their original owners.

"In an interview with The Phillipian, Lowry urged students to grapple with #IndigenousHistory in the current era, not just the past. He expressed his hopes for Andover students not to shy away from uncomfortable situations.

"'You have to make Native and Indigenous peoples part of today. They can’t merely be part of events/politics/wars in the past. Every experience that you all at PA have with your local and national community ought to be to work to reverse the realities that allow you to live comfortably outside of relationships with Native and Indigenous peoples,' wrote Lowry in an email to The Phillipian."
