What are some good books about colonialism? I am interested in how it affected the indigenous peoples. Differing perspectives are welcome.

Gayatri Spivak is arguably the most significant scholar on postcolonial aesthetic and cultural theory.

I will get eviscerated for saying this, but I actually enjoyed Howard Zinn's People's History of the United States. The first few chapters are dedicated to the colonial era, and cover a lot of how the natives were treated. I enjoyed it and a lot of it still sticks out in my mind.

Bakunin, Stirner, Malatesta, Kropotkin. There’s a lot to choose from. It’s certainly not a one size fits all politics. The rightwingers (of a sort) may tend towards anarcho-primitivism or some variety of green

Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee is the standard pop history text. Check out First Nations? Second Thoughts by Tom Flanagan. If you encounter bad press about him treat it with a huge grain of salt (>>19314526). He was an influential political advisor and prominent talking head that was targeted because of the aforementioned book.

Projecting much? This is all about (you) insect. You've told us over and over how your parents were mean so it's understandable you failed to learn the difference between "positive" and "negative" attention. I'll be pointing out the difference to you at least a few more times.
