Colonial Subjugation Creating a class of Brown British natives🔗

"We must at present do our best to form a class who may be interpreters between us and the millions whom we govern; a class of persons, Hindu in blood and colour, but English in taste, in opinions, in morals, and in intellect. To that class, we may leave it to refine the vernacular dialects of the country, to enrich those dialects with terms of science borrowed from the Western nomenclature, and to render them by degrees fit vehicles for conveying knowledge to the great mass of the population."

Thomas Macaulay, East India Company, Minute on Education (1835)
