It s the turn of the nineteenth century and a small contingent of British colonialists has been dispatched to a (fictitious) African country, their mission: to establish colonial dominion over an unclaimed territory . While some of colonialism s cruelties have by this stage been realised, the Scramble for Africa , under the auspices of Darwinian theory, Christian charity and Eurocentrism, has assumed the guise of philanthropy.
