Colonialism: The Acceleration
From: The Memory We Could Be
$3.60
Colonialism was, and remains, a wholesale destruction of memory. Lands, the sources of identity, stolen. Languages, ripped from mouths. The collective loss to humanity was incalculable, as cultures, ideas, species, habitats, traditions, cosmologies, possibilities, patterns of life and ways of understanding the world were destroyed. Countless ecological traditions — involving diverse ways of being with nature — were swept away.
