According to Lupe, what is Cecil Rhodes connection to imperialism?

Cecil Rhodes sold war and genocideTo the countryside just to get his shine on!I fear what De Beers and his peers use to do, before the world really knew, just to get their "mine" on!Making paper with slave labor and hittin little kids with life time bids making em cut and shine stones.Inflating the price and making em look nice and i wasnt thinking twice when i was putting mine on.About a young shorty in Sierra Leone or other conflict countries that people call home.I figured i would never go to Angola so it never did affect me that maybe indirectly.That my necklace was funding a rebellion or a military coup,Started by militias that dont believe in following none of Geneva's rules.I was brushing off the haters, trying to be cool.Didnt have a clue that the rapper was helping the rapers, raiders of the villagers, pillagers of the schools.Shooters of the innocent, torturers of the witnesses, burners of the businessesAnd my bracelet was the fuel.

What are his thoughts on imperialism? "Why should we not form a

secret society with but one object, the furtherance of the British Empire and the bringing of the whole world under British rule, for the recovery of the United States, for making the Anglo Saxon race but one Empire? What a dream, but yet it is probable, it is possible.“ Cecil Rhodes (age 23)

What are his thoughts on imperialism? Great Britain is a very small

island. Great Britain’s position depends on her trade, and if we do not open up the dependencies of the world which are at present devoted to barbarism, we shall shut out the world’s trade. It must be brought home to you that your trade is the world, and your life is the world, not England. That is why you must deal with these questions of expansion and retention of the world.”

“I would annex the planets if I could.” (1895)

Sample obituaryRubin "Hurricane" Carter, the boxer whose wrongful murder conviction became an international symbol of racial injustice, died Sunday. He was 76. He had been stricken with prostate cancer in Toronto, the New Jersey native's adopted home. John Artis,a longtime friend and caregiver, said Carter died in his sleep. Carter spent 19 years in prison for three murders at a tavern in Paterson, N.J., in 1966. He was convicted alongside Artis in 1967 and again in a new trial in 1976. Carter was freed in November 1985 when his convictions were set aside after years of appeals and public advocacy. His ordeal and the alleged racial motivations behind it were publicized in Bob Dylan's 1975 song "Hurricane," several books and a 1999 film starring Denzel Washington, who received an Academy Award nomination for playing the boxer turned prisoner. Carter eventually wrote and spoke eloquently about his plight, publishing his autobiography, "The Sixteenth Round," in 1974. Benefit concerts were held for his legal defense. After his release, Carter moved to Toronto, where he served as the executive director of the Association in Defense of the Wrongly Convicted from 1993 to 2005. He received two honorary doctorates for his work.
