I remember my friend, a brilliant Kenyan writer, and I once walking the streets of London some years ago, and as he walked past beautiful after beautiful building he would point at one and say ‘this one was payed for by colonial loot from Kenya’ and he would point at another and say ‘this one was payed for by colonial loot from from Nigeria’. It was funny and a bit exaggerated but fundamentally not untrue. There is a link between the affluence of Europe and the poverty of Africa.”

The Stories That Europe Tells Itself About Its Colonial History (via stay-human)
This reminds me of something I watched, either a documentary or a news report, in which some Congolese ex-pats living in Belgium referred to an iconic parliamentary building (if my memory serves me correctly) and called it something along the lines of, “building of the chopped hands”. In short, they were outlining the direct link between Belgium’s “wealth” (I use quotation marks as I don’t believe that anything stolen is worthy of being called the wealth of the thief) and the heinous atrocities committed by Belgian colonialists in the Congo, in order for the tiny European country to steal and use the country’s minerals for Belgian profit.
