I have just watched your interview with Li Jingjing on YouTube and looked you up on Substack. It was a great interview!!
You cannot appeal to the “moral sense” of our colonisers because they cannot give you what they don’t have. We have 500 years of history which supports this. The only thing that these people have for the colonised is disdain. I’m not surprised that’s what you and the civil societies got from the WB + IMF.
The solution is for us to create our own institutions and economic systems to safeguard our own interests. The challenge is whether our leaders would recognise what’s at stake.
