This video explores the Malakand Campaign of 1897, highlighting the role of a young Winston Churchill as a soldier and writer during this tumultuous period of British imperialism in South Asia. Through Churchill's writings, the video contrasts his admiration for the bravery of the Pashtun tribes against his deeply rooted belief in British superiority. It underscores the complexities of colonialism, emphasizing that while the British framed their aggression as efforts to maintain order, the resistance led by the Pashtuns represented a fight for autonomy and dignity. Ultimately, the video presents a critical look at how history often glamorizes conquerors while neglecting the voices of those who resisted.
