Abhijit Naskar
“A Brief History of Earth Cannibals (Sonnet)

There's no such thing as slave traders,
get your language straight, you idiots -
they were human traffickers, not traders,
you trade in commodity, not people.

Colonizers were not slave traders,
they were terrorists and traffickers;
settlers are not civilizers,
they are plague upon the civilized world.

The world outside europe was already civilized
beyond the wildest dreams of the europeans,
then those brutes set sail, and the human race
experienced an extinction level catastrophe.

To trade in human lives like livestock
is the savagest form of cannibalism -
white history sells the West as the free world,
but dig into earth history, and you'll realize,
West is the biggest threat to life and freedom.

Here is some rectified history,
dig up the rest for yourself -
Churchill was a big fat cannibal,
Leopold was an ugly deadly virus,
Columbus was a most wanted terrorist.”
Abhijit Naskar, Sonnets From The Mountaintop

“who is more barbaric? The alleged cannibalistic savages, who at least waited until their victims were dead before they cooked and ate them? Or the European slave traders who thrived on live meat, that is, the exploitation of these human 'animals'?”
Samantha Hurn, Humans and Other Animals: Cross-Cultural Perspectives on Human-Animal Interactions
