The Bengal famine of 1943 serves as an example of one of the worst and most fatal atrocities in Modern History. It is also the only famine in India that is recognised to be caused by man-made factors; greed, complacency, and even racism all played a role. It claimed the lives of 2-4 million Bengalis. It reduced the appearance of otherwise healthy men, women, and children to skeletons. Like life, History is complicated. History merely seeks to record life, so it must be. History tells us that its celebrated figures can be capable of both immense bravery but also shocking inhumanity. The story of the Bengal famine drives this concept home, forcing us to re-examine past beliefs and arrive at more nuanced conclusions about such figures. Join us, as we uncover this extremely tragic and difficult history

Anyone who enjoys their history knows that this a common occurrence throughout history. That's why revolutions are also a constant in history. Until we finally see that those in power are slave masters at the whip.
We need the philosopher kings of ancient Rome before their imperialism. We need more Marcus Aurelius'.

Thank you for bringing this historical injustice to light. Being from Australia (and white) British colonialism has damaged so many countries and indigenous peoples it is embarrassing to be white. Please keep telling people about this hidden historical stories.

The British were certainly not
Godlike enough to create a famine
Certainly wartime measures to
prioritise what food there was did
not help the situation for normal
Bengalis but it's stretching things
to say Britain engineered a famine: /

There had been famines in India for thousands of years, it is Western science and modern agriculture which stopped famines. nitrate fertilizers, machinery, technology

Utter lies and fabrication, with the addition of distorted historical facts! Much like the nonsense being spouted about American history.

And now these governments in the UK, US and. with such inhumane history try to teach us civilisation in the Middle East and the global south.

Not a racist thing at all. They just didnt care enough to be racist. They did this to all peoples, do some better research.

Calculus was also invented in India, but British Empire suppressed the fact and gave the credit to Newton.
