Description

Celebrated American Indian thinker Jack D. Forbes’s Columbus and Other Cannibals used to be probably the most founding texts of the anticivilization movement when it used to be first published in 1978. His history of terrorism, genocide, and ecocide told from a Native American perspective has inspired The united states’s most influential activists for decades. Frighteningly, his radical critique of the up to date “civilized” way of life is more relevant now than ever before.
Identifying the Western compulsion to consume the earth as a sickness, Forbes writes:
“Brutality knows no boundaries. Greed knows no limits. Perversion knows no borders. . . . These characteristics all push towards an extreme, at all times moving forward once the initial infection sets in. . . . That is the disease of the consuming of other creatures’ lives and possessions. I call it cannibalism.”
This up to date edition includes a new chapter by the writer.
