Did Indians deal with their colonial past better than Africans? Thau-Thau Haramanuba, the leader of South Africa’s Rastafari United Front, seems to think so. He claims we’re still stuck trying to conform to British ideals and culture, whereas the Indians just kept what served them – the technology. Is he right? Do we, for example, obsess too much about ‘perfect’ spoken English as a marker of intelligence? Do we try to imitate European culture too much? Like why are African judges in 2025 still wearing those silly wigs? Why do we think looking smart is wearing a suit made by Italians? Let us know what you think in the comments.
