Lit Crit for Dummies! Is back after a short hiatus 💭📚🤍 Today we are discussing Post-Colonial Theory. Postcolonial theory looks at how the histories of colonialism CONTINUE to shape culture, politics, literature, and identity long after formal empires end. It asks who gets to speak, whose knowledge is valued, and how power still operates through language, representation, borders, and institutions. When we read texts through a postcolonial lens, we’re paying attention to silenced voices, uneven power relations, and the ways colonial logics get reproduced (even in places that claim to be “neutral” or “universal”). As I mention in the video, the term postcolonial is also contested. Calling it “post” can suggest that colonialism is over, finished, safely in the past. For many communities, that simply isn’t true. Economic exploitation, racial hierarchies, cultural domination, and political control persist in new forms. So postcolonial theory isn’t about what comes after colonialism. It’s about living with its ongoing consequences, and learning how to name, resist, and rethink them. Like I said, Colonialism/Post-Colonialism by Ania Loomba is a great introductory work for Post-colonial theory. Writers including Chinua Achebe, Salman Rushdie, Ngũgĩ wa Thiong'o, Arundhati Roy, and Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, alongside theorists like Frantz Fanon, Edward Said, and Homi K. Bhabha are fantastic for reading post-colonial works. They often "write back" to the colonial center, reclaiming narratives and challenging Eurocentric perspectives #literarycriticism #reading #books #postcolonialism #literature

In a rare 1957 high school debate, students from newly independent nations openly questioned the legacy of British rule. Amin Jan from Pakistan opened with a bold challenge to colonial narratives. Gopinath Padmanabha from India argued that democracy was not a British gift, pointing out that local self governing village councils, or panchayats, existed in India long before modern European democracies. He also highlighted how India’s cotton, jute, and agricultural wealth fueled Britain’s rise while the colony itself was left economically drained. Sara Chatt from the UK added another perspective, making the discussion balanced and intense. The debate raises questions that still matter today. Did colonial rule delay India’s natural development? Would democratic systems have evolved without imperial control? How should history be remembered by those who lived its consequences? More than half a century later, this conversation still feels relevant.

DISCLAIMER: I do not have the answers and do not pretend to be an authority in this space. My opinions are formed from my experiences and education in postcolonial theory, globalisation, neoliberalism and now eastern spirituality and philosophy. I am, as much as any one else, asking questions about things I find difficult to reconcile with. Meditation is not a productivity tool! When wisdom migrates without its ethical and philosophical foundations, it risks losing the integrity of the entire practice, turning what was meant to liberate us into yet another loop that keeps us stuck in our suffering.

🇨🇲“Cette reconnaissance [du passé colonial] est très importante pour se reconstruire.” L’acteur, réalisateur et humoriste Thomas Ngijol change de registre en signant un polar social au Cameroun. Dans "Indomptables", en salles le 11 juin prochain, qu’il réalise, il tient le rôle principal, celui d’un commissaire de Yaoundé. Dans la lignée du documentaire qui l'a inspiré (“Un crime à Abidjan" de Mosco Boucault), son film est "100 % africain, sans prisme occidental", selon ses mots. @thomas_ngijol @artefr ⏯️ Cet extrait est issu de notre émission du 9 juin 2025 à retrouver en replay sur arte.tv, YouTube ou en podcast. #28minutes #arte #Cameroun #France #Colonialisme #PostColonial #Réparations #Immigrés #Diasporas #Cinema

Is America diverse or just colonial? I want to believe in what I’ve been taught is possible: diverse communities and beliefs coming to the table and working together for the greater good. But to get there, we need to not overlook the real circumstances of our history as a nation and the stories of why these communities wound up where they are. #imperialism #imperialismo #americanhistory #postcolonialism #postcolonial

Le premier empire colonial à tomber. The first colonial empire to fall. On a longtemps raconté l’histoire à l’envers. Comme si tout cela appartenait au passé. Comme si c’était un détail. Haïti n’a pas été vaincue. Elle a gagné. Et cette victoire a fait peur. Peur à un système qui ne pardonne pas ceux qui gagnent sans demander, ceux qui ne s’excusent pas, ceux qui brisent l’ordre établi. Ce n’est pas un problème historique. C’est un précédent politique. Un signal envoyé au monde entier. Haïti est devenue le premier empire colonial à tomber. Et le prix à payer a duré plus d’un siècle. This is not just history. It’s power, fear, and consequence. A victory the system never forgave. #Haiti #HistoireColoniale #ColonialEmpire #PostColonial #HistoricalTruth #MémoireHistorique #Empire #Decolonization #JusticeHistorique #HiddenHistory

John Mbano’s great-grandfather, Songea Mbano, was executed by the German 🇩🇪 colonial army in Tanzania 🇹🇿 in 1906. His head was later transported to Germany for racist research purposes. The profound grief and trauma inflicted upon Mbano’s family echoes through generations. Now, John is on a mission to find the remains of his great-grandfather. What will it take? #colonial #colonialwars #songea #songeambano #tanzania #reparations #áfrica #postcolonial #colonialsm

These writers don’t just tell stories… they write what it feels like to belong nowhere and everywhere. 🌍📚 From Rushdie’s magical histories to Lahiri’s quiet loneliness, diasporic literature is not just about migration — it’s about identity, memory, displacement, and the search for home. If you’re preparing for UGC NET English Literature, this is your must-know list — because diaspora is not just a topic, it’s a recurring question. Save this for revision. Because sometimes, literature is the only place we truly belong. . . .
