“Colonialism is not simply content to impose its rule upon the present and the future of a dominated country. Colonialism is not satisfied merely with holding a people in its grip and emptying the native’s brain of all form and content. By a kind of perverted logic, it turns to the past of the oppressed people, and distorts, disfigures and destroys it.”[9] Put succinctly, colonialists attempt to colonise not just territories, resources and destinies, but the mind, culture and history of a people as a necessary means to achieve total and perpetual exploitation.”
