Britain was never a colony. They were the colonizers. I could understand if
they were protesting in India or some African country that was colonized by
Britain, or even here in America, which used to be British colonies. But how
do you 'decolonize' Britain itself? It was never a colony in the first place.
It's a logical oxymoron.

If the second part is true, then what's their gripe with white people? They
should be bitching about all those black Britons that stole the wealth of
Africa.

Other claims made by the book:

--Black people have inhabited Britain (and all of Europe, for that matter, to
include Scandinavia) for longer than whites and it was barbaric whites who
stole it from them.

--It was a black Roman that introduced Christianity to Britain.

--The Vikings worshipped Allah, not Odin or any of the other Norse gods.

--The book claims Africa at the time was a wonderland of various Wakanda-like
societies with gleaming cities that were technologically far ahead of white
Europeans. Yet despite being so advanced and powerful, they were somehow
unable to keep the rapacious and barbaric whites from overrunning them, taking
everything the black Africans had, and leaving them all in poverty.

It cites "Cheddar Man", a 10,000-year-old skeleton found at the turn of the
century in a cave in the Cheddar Gorge near Bristol, as proof that black
people were native to Britain long before whites. Recently, scientists at the
Natural History Museum in London ran DNA tests on the skeleton and announced
that in life, the guy had blue eyes, curly black hair and "skin as dark as can
be".
>
However, when questioned as to how these determinations were made, the
scientists involved in the testing and reconstruction of Cheddar Man admitted
that their findings were directed by the administrative staff at the museum
"to prevent native Britons from identifying with ancestral populations". In
other words, they didn't want to give any scientific validation that nativist
anti-immigration groups could use to support their cause. So they made up the
'fact' that this ancient man was black. The museum staff were quoted as
saying, "Regardless of refutations of his black ancestry, once black Britons
adopt Cheddar Man as part of their cultural identity, he will remain black
thereafter, regardless of the actual science."

The book ends with a celebration of George Floyd and his sacrifice for the

Agreed: all of the claims made by the anti-whites are an flat-out lies. As such, they need to be removed from the history books so that kids are NOT taught this nonsense, otherwise they'll grow up actually believing it, making it that much harder to expunge in a future generation. There will be a genuine danger that this nonsense will be accepted as fact forever more.

As usual, the flaw in the ointment is that there's no absolute arbiter of Truth.  E.g., maybe the moon landing *was* faked...
