Horrors of Colonialism

Horrors Of Colonialism 

For all those who romanticize with British rule over sub continent do not know the value of freedom. We were British subjects in our own lands, not equals, they ruled us as our masters, made rules that benefited them and only granted riches and power to those who obeyed them as their masters, spoke their language and followed their system of rule. The freedom fighter and enlightened ones were labelled as rebels and were hanged till death. Today 2nd December is celebrated all over the world as International Day for the Abolition of Slavery, I would like to remind people of sub continent to remember the sacrifices their elders made and hardships they faced so we may live free today. We should celebrate this day and remember that we are enjoying the fruit of their labor and sacrifices.
Below is the picture of A Bengali woman carrying her British master 1903 India during the time of British colonialism. Imagine that being you for a second and you will know the importance of freedom. #NeverForget
