This is Episode 1 of our new series, "Are We Still Living in the Shadow of Colonialism?" This episode calmly decodes the complex economic systems—like international debt, trade imbalances, and structural adjustment programs—that replaced formal colonies. The goal is not blame, but understanding. We then explore powerful solutions, from the rise of fair-trade movements and local-first economies to major debt-forgiveness campaigns, all aimed at building true economic independence.
