Colonialism in 10 Minutes: The Scramble For Africa

Uploaded on Feb 25, 2008
An excerpt from the film Uganda Rising showing in a (very!) brief overview the utter decimation of Africa that took place via colonialism and the so-called "Scramble For Africa."
Despite the film's focus on Uganda, I think this excerpt sheds light on just how much of the violence that we see today actually has a colonial/European precedent rooted in exploitation and racism.
It's also an instructive lead in, I think, to Darfur in 10 Minutes: An Overview of the Conflict in Sudan.
Uganda Rising was produced by Alison Lawton.
It was directed by Jesse James Miller and Pete McCormack (me). Jesse also edited the film, and I wrote it.

That's not true Bro. The Arabs enslaved Africans way before the White Man even knew about Africa.

Every single black male was castrated in Ottoman Turkey
Blacks were used as sex slaves (the black women) and the men as... cattle

Oh, I beg to differ. Every heard of the Jannissaries? Blacks were allowed to hold high positions in the military and governments of North African and Arabian countries. When did this happen in American European societies?

Not by a long shot, blacks were and are treated even worse in parts of North Africa and Arabia

Yeah, but white's took slavery of Africans to a whole different level. Not to mention the laws enacted by white's to keep blacks in subservient positions (Jim Crow in the United States) and (apartheid on the continent of Africa.) Slavery under whites was the most brutal.

Liberia was left alone. What's the solution? Poland was "raped" by Russia. "England" was raped by Rome. Doesn't Slavic mean Slave?

Let us liberate Africa from imperialism and global capitalism, let us unite all of Africa to build socialism on the continent and globally. We shall make it to the Promised Land!

Since Northern Ireland voted to stay in the UK, yes it would be colonialism if Southern Ireland invaded. Luckily the Irish aren't colonial so they aren't trying to colonise Northern Ireland against their will.
