Nyuki Comic Book
In a stunning visual masterpiece, the Nyuki comic book brings to life the deep and enduring connections between colonialism, imperialism, and patriarchy, exposing how these historical forces continue to shape wealth inequality today. It vividly illustrates how power structures of the past laid the foundation for modern systems of privilege, where the concentration of wealth remains in the hands of a few. The piece challenges viewers to confront this legacy and underscores the urgent need for systemic change—starting with a fair redistribution of tax obligations.

The culprit behind this depoliticization is none other than the usual suspect; insatiable imperialist profit-minded entities that […]
