Colonialism never really ended.
US/NATO regime change wars - either economic, covert, proxy, or overt - continue to kill millions of almost entirely non-white people.
Obama, a proud American supremacist who considers his country ‘the one indispensable nation in world affairs’, played a leading role in doing this to Yemen, before Trump then took the reins, over that war, and all the other wars that Obama oversaw.
Even a black president did nothing to end the imperial, racist system. The US Empire continues to expand on its 1000 military bases around the world. It continues to install puppet regimes that then call in the IMF to ‘restructure’ the economy, privatizing industry, allowing western corporations in to exploit and plunder.
Leading to the situation we have today, with a handful of billionaires having most of the world’s wealth, whilst one billion people go undernourished.
But this truth of Empire is disguised by an incredibly powerful propaganda machine that distracts, omits, skewers the truth, and tells sick lies of 'humanitarian intervention', forever depicting US liberal warmongers as the good guys.
Anti-racism MUST be anti-imperialist.
