Viscount Torrington, by Leslie Ward - Vanity Fair, 15 April 1876
George Byng was a British colonial administrator and courtier. In 1847 he was appointed Governor of Ceylon, a post he held until 1850. There he is known for his harsh suppression of the 1848 civil uprising.

Draw that clever, hot nerd, half Deutsch guy from my dream, named Budi.
He's my roommate and I'm a native. That dream was Dutch colonial era and WE'RE BALLET CLASSMATE
@reventron @abc730 @latingle @FergusonNews Fancy that, the foundations of the modern colonial Aussie Nation is built on disrespect, with the crimes of theft & genocide, along with lies etc etc. Time gone by, doesn't erase crimes. @Tiddapage @WgarNews @blakandblack @JennyPineapple2 @AuSenate @Greens
In 'The Myth of the Lazy Native', Syed Hussein Alatas shows how the humanity of the native populations had to be degraded to serve the interests of colonial capitalism

Today we have French Sudan.
Which despite their name, is not even near to the Sudan of today. Instead, they are what is now Mali. So technically I have drawn to Malian flags

@Glitched_OutHal Mexican American donkey that loves the desert, reading manga, and binging movies cozy at home. She appreciates the desert, Mexican food, and old haciendas/colonial architecture full of flowers
I desperately need everyone to read To Shape a Dragon's Breath by @PoirierMonique the moment it is out. This is the anticolonialist, queer, indigenous dragon riding book I have always wanted. I'm so into it, you guys. Everything I've ever wanted from a dragon book is RIGHT HERE.
There's always a darker side to paradise, as Winslow Homer shows in 'Forces of Nature' @NationalGallery. Beaches are invaded by colonial rule, red flags wave, ships are surrounded by sharks, tall walls segregate ppl, trees are torn by hurricanes. How these images still resonate
Today is Columbus Day. In 2020, Cuban cartoonist Ares made an excellent series of cartoons about the 'discovery' of America. If you haven't seen 'm check 'm out here: https://t.co/g6kNSZUMgS

We had a really productive discussion in #ScientificExpeditions last week on Joseph Banks, the Transit of Venus expeditions, and colonialism in the South Pacific, reading against the "famous explorer" narrative often at play here.
Ese momento feo cuando de tanto viaje necesitas un reposo, pero alguien te interrumpe de la peor manera, al menos en mi país. 😓

The Prairie Chicken, Similar to Bison, Are spiritually significant to Indigenous nations, especially nations who no longer can enjoy them in their natural habitat due to colonial caused urbanization.

Since NE won't, we will: today we celebrate the US Indigenous Peoples Day by remembering the tragic story of Angelina.
A Sioux, she and her family were driven from their ancestral lands and killed. Rest in power to all the victims, past and present, of colonialism in the Americas
