4.25. I liked this a lot. A really interesting interpretation of Imperialism/Colonialism that was subtly deep. It takes a look at the subjugation of the native people as would be expected, but also the psychological impact of violent resistance; while simultaneously using multiple perspectives to highlight the depravity of the colonizer and the pertinence of the maxim “When we dehumanize others, we lose our own humanity”.
