I refer to the Bookers "localization" campaign which resulted in that training center. Skeldon is going down and his knees and sticking his tongue up some white man's butt crack singing praises.

Clearly if the struggle against colonialism began with Cuffy and extending through later slave rebellions and strikes colonialism wasn't that great.
Please tell this to those clowns who want to go back to being treated like a child by a Mummy who hates you. When the West Indians journeyed to Mummy in the 40s and 50s she certainly didn't show any love for them or for the other colonials who arrived from Indo/Pak or West Africa.
