    'England has been the biggest victim of the colonial mindset. It is vulnerable to feeling nostalgic about the empire and wanting to feel superior to others... which makes it difficult to accept the reality'.

  6. #Churchill was the Prime Minister when the British caused a famine in Iran during WWII by forcibly requisitioning stores of grain there.

  7. "Let’s take that number-one narrative, which is I was taught to treat everyone the same. You know, actually no one was - or could be taught to treat everyone the same. We can’t do it. We don’t do it."

    "A white progressive generally believes niceness is all that it takes. As long as I’m nice and friendly, I’m finished. And niceness not only is not courageous. But niceness is not going to get racism on the table."

    NPR’s Jennifer Ludden talks to author Robin DiAngelo about her book, "White Fragility: Why It’s So Hard For White People To Talk About Racism": npr.org/2018/08/18/639822895/r

  8. First Worldism—“the loss of the prerogative, only and always, to be the one who transgresses the sovereign boundaries of other states, but never to be in the position of having one’s own boundaries transgressed.”
    —Judith Butler, J. (2009). ‘Violence, mourning, politics’, in Harding, J. and Pribram, D. eds., Emotions: A Cultural Studies Reader. London: Routledge, pp. 387–402.
