What are the origins of American Racism and Piracy - how did we get to Donald Trump and the corporate domination of our democracy? How did piracy develop in the Americas? Who benefitted? Who suffered? Why did America keep it? With the racist and irresponsible Trump administration’s essential destruction of America’s world reputation, these become essential questions and this is an attempt to answer them by exploring their roots in British Imperialism.
