“In other words, the colonising, enslaving, and dispossessing West failed to notice the irony of its very own cannibalisation of non-Western 'Others', their labour, bodies, creative energies and material riches, while actively claiming real or imagined cannibalism amongst those it sought to annihilate literally, socially, and metaphorically. How could they not see that their craving for total and absolute control over the colonised -- body, mind, and soul -- was nothing short of cannibalism (Brown 2013)?”
