Elizabeth II - The Architect of ColonialismCondolences and condemnation: Indigenous people and people of colour react to the death of Queen Elizabeth II<br /><br />While some have offered unflinching takes on the damage of British colonisation, others say the monarch held ‘a special place’ in their hearts<br /><br />Indigenous Australians have said she was ‘the architect’ of colonialism.<br /><br />https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2022/sep/10/condolences-and-condemnation-indigenous-people-and-people-of-colour-react-to-the-death-of-queen-elizabeth-ii<br /><br /><br />There has been a variety of opinion following the long-reigning monarch's death, from personal reflections to reminders of legacies of colonialism. <br /><br />https://www.sbs.com.au/nitv/article/2022/09/09/what-first-nations-people-are-saying-following-queen-elizabeths-death<br /><br /><br />Some critics have cited the Stolen Generation and erasure of Indigenous cultural identifiers as part of the Queen’s legacy, labelling her a “war criminal”.<br /><br />“Today we mourn all the stolen, violated, and traumatised lives who were affected and destroyed during Queen Elizabeth II (sic) reign,” said an Indigenous art collective in a viral post.<br /><br />“Today is a brutal reminder that war criminals will be honoured while entire populations and societies bear the battle scars of colonial genocide, invasion, religious persecution, and white supremacy.”<br /><br />https://www.theaustralian.com.au/breaking-news/indigenous-leaders-reflect-on-legacy-of-queen-elizabeth-ii/news-story/70220d1a9f38614c18d1774c28e032ff<br /><br /><br />Queen Elizabeth's death revives criticism of Britain's legacy of colonialism<br /><br />Critics are responding to "the relationship of the monarchy to systems of oppression, repression and forced extraction of labor, and particularly African labor, and exploitation of natural resources and forcing systems of control in these places," one professor said.<br /><br />While Elizabeth ruled as Britain navigated a post-colonial era, she still bore a connection to its colonial past, which was rooted in racism and violence against Asian and African colonies. There have been growing calls in recent years for the monarchy to confront its colonial past.<br /><br />Zoé Samudzi, a Zimbabwean American writer and an assistant professor of photography at the Rhode Island School of Design, wrote on Twitter: "As the first generation of my family not born in a British colony, I would dance on the graves of every member of the royal family if given the opportunity, especially hers."
