Colonialism

How British capitalism grew rich through slavery

Details Fiona Lali logo 02 Jul 2020

The Black Lives Matter movement has helped to shine a light on Britain’s own racist, colonial history. Fiona Lali looks at the origins of British capitalism, which came into being – in the words of Marx – with “blood dripping from every pore”.

Details Girish Malhotra logo 12 Apr 2019

Tomorrow, 13th April, marks the 100th anniversary of the brutal suppression by British imperialism of a protest in colonial Punjab, India. To this day, no British government has ever offered a formal apology for this bloody crime.

Gandhi: the myths behind the Mahatma

Details Ravi Mistry logo 15 Aug 2017

15th August 2017 marks the 70th anniversary since Indian independence from British colonial rule. Mahatha Gandhi is often portrayed as an anti-imperialist and non-violent leader of the Indian independence movement. But, as Ravi Mistry explains, the truth is that Gandhi betrayed as many as he inspired, playing a role that ultimately led to the disaster of partition.

Details Steve Jones logo 07 Nov 2016
