I thought this might be interesting for those who chose to defend
colonialism and its modes of thought, in re the Zambian essay.

Some new research suggests that colonialism is directly responsible for the
spread of AIDS. Here's the essay from the *Washington Post*:
http://www.washingtonpost.com/national/health-science/colonialism-in-africa-helped-launch-the-hiv-epidemic-a-century-ago/2012/02/21/gIQAyJ9aeR_story.htmlThe
book mentioned is at
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Tinderbox-Sparked-Epidemic-Finally-Overcome/dp/159420327X/

I have attached a paper which goes over the history of the virus, and lends
significant support to the headline claim in the *WaPo*.
