People in Africa, what are ways colonialism has affected your life that people don’t often consider?

I’ve been to both Italy and Ethiopia. I like museums. Both countries profess to Italy having colonised (according to the ones I visited) Ethiopia. Now it might be that their colonial experience was not the same as a British, French or Dutch undertaking, but it was still colonialism. As a consequence of your inability to adapt to information that conflicts with your opinion, I looked up the google to confirm. Maybe do the same. I’m not sure why you think living near some Ethiopian migrants makes you an expert on their history. Does that somehow qualify you to opinionate with confidence against accepted history? FWIW I now live in a part of Australia with lots of Chinese migrants. I know fuck all about Chinese history.
