The ravages of the colonialist powers

Dear Steve, Thanks for some wonderful insights. It will keep me engaged. How about covering the ravages of the colonialist powers starting 1492 CE? Thanks, Regards, Sampath………..

Hello Sampath—Thank you very much for your kind feedback, much appreciated. As for covering the 'ravages of the colonialist powers from 1492’, there’s a topic that could take up a few episodes! Where to begin? As you know, I cover events with anniversaries in the following week. To do this, I keep a (fast-growing) database with as many of the world historical events that I can. It is like a monster that needs constant feeding. I have quite a few colonial-related references in the database, but will revisit it to give this part of history greater weight. That should mean stories start appearing more frequently on this subject when the key dates arrive. Thank you for shining some light on this pertinent period of history, I look forward to digging deep into the detail. Best wishes Steve
