“The Belgians, under orders of King Leopold II hung thousands of Congolese citizens.” “The white man’s quest for power has led him to destroy with utter ruthlessness whatever has stood in his way.” ~ The Honorable Steve Biko “The question as to who, and what, is responsible for African underdevelopment can be answered at two levels. Firstly, the answer is that the operation of the imperialist system bears major responsibility for African economic retardation by draining African wealth and by making it impossible to develop more rapidly the resources of the continent. Secondly, one has to deal with those who manipulated the system and those who are either agents or unwitting accomplices of the said system. The capitalists of Western Europe were the ones who actively extended their exploitation from inside Europe to cover the whole of Africa. In recent times, they were joined, and to some extent replaced, by the capitalists from the United States; and for many years now even the workers of those metropolitan countries have benefited from the exploitaiton and underdevelopment of Africa.” ~ Walter Rodney ( Walter Anthony Rodney was a prominent Guyanese historian, political activist and preeminent scholar, who was assassinated in Guyana in 1980. ) “We must find new lands from which we can easily obtain raw materials and at the same time exploit the cheap slave labor that is available from the natives of the colonies. The colonies would also provide a dumping ground for the surplus goods produced in our factories.” ~ Cecil Rhodes ( Cecil John Rhodes was a British businessman, mining magnate, and politician in South Africa. An ardent believer in British colonialism, Rhodes was the founder of the southern African territory of Rhodesia, which was named after him in 1895. South Africa’s Rhodes University is also named after Rhodes. He set up the provisions of the Rhodes Scholarship, which is funded by his estate. ) “Having read the histories of other countries, I saw that expansion was everything, and that the world’s surface being limited, the great object of present humanity should be to take as much of the world as it possibly could.” ~ Cecil Rhodes “Why should we not form a secret society with but one object, the furtherance of the British Empire and the bringing of the whole world under British rule, for the recovery of the United States, for making the Anglo Saxon race but one Empire? What a dream, but yet it is probable; it is possible.” ~ Cecil Rhodes “Cecil Rhodes said, before he died, that he was going to leave his millions and millions of dollars to setup a secret society that would teach young white men to be able to come into power and handle the reins of a vast world government. So that was the dream of Cecil Rhodes, to be able to create a secret society that could dominate the world from behind the scenes and do it with such expertise that no one would ever have knowledge about it.” ~ Jordan Maxwell; Matrix of Power “Remember that you are an Englishman, and have consequently won first prize in the lottery of life.” ~ Cecil Rhodes
