Imperialism, which today is waging war against a genuine struggle for human liberation, sows seeds of decay here and there that must be mercilessly rooted out from our land and from our minds.
-- Frantz Fanon
Written four and half decades ago, in Africa, by and to the colonized. Interestingly, relevant in a different way to those who benefit from colonialism and imperialism in twenty-first century Canada.

Well done Scott!
Hi Paul. Thanks for stopping by and reading, and thanks so much for the great rec on your own site!
I told you that you should submit that piece for publication. Seriously.
