“[Suspicious Things]

“In a colonised world, domination does not begin with the occupation of land. It begins with the occupation of appearance. The coloniser does not merely seize territory; they take control of the stage on which reality is presented. They reshape the world until conquest appears as civilisation, domination as order, extraction as development, violence as security, possession as legitimacy and power as virtue. He dresses himself as morality. He presents himself as civilisation. He presents himself as progress. He builds monuments, institutions, roads, churches, schools, parliaments, armies and cities that all silently proclaim the same message: 'We belong at the centre of the world.”
