Description

The Cause of Empire Colonization, Civilization, Extermination - The Echoes That Built Our World Inspired by the documentary by Raoul Peck, Exterminate All the Brutes: A Historical Reckoning. What if the story of "civilization" is not one of progress but of power? What if the triumphs celebrated in textbooks are inseparable from the destruction of entire peoples and ways of life? Drawing inspiration from Raoul Peck's groundbreaking documentary Exterminate All the Brutes, this book expands his urgent work into a historical narrative that is both searing and revelatory. It traces the through-line connecting colonization, slavery, Indigenous displacement, and genocide, exposing the mythologies that have allowed these atrocities to be justified, erased or forgotten. By blending Peck's original narration with added historical context and insight, this work becomes more than a companion to the film-it becomes a tool for understanding how empire and violence have shaped the modern world and why confronting these truths is essential for the future. For students of history, lovers of truth, and those wrestling with the whitewashed stories they were taught, this book is both a challenge and an invitation: to remember, to reckon, and to refuse to look away from the oppression and unprecedented historical horrors of European colonial empires; a past that is being lived out in the here and now.
