Title: The untold history of Winston Churchill and the British Empire | Tariq Ali | The Big Picture S4E9
.
Winston Churchill is one of the most biographed figures in modern history, held up as an orator and wartime strategist that turned the tide against Hitler and Nazi Germany.
.
But how accurate is this image? And is it hiding a darker reality?
.
This week on The Big Picture, we sit down with British-Pakistani writer, political activist and public intellectual Tariq Ali.
.
Ali published his own biography, titled ‘Winston Churchill: His Times, His Crimes’. In it, he paints a different portrait - one of a self-obsessed, ruthless and deeply racist colonial leader, who lost little sleep over his crushing attempts to maintain Britain’s rule.
.
In particular, his actions in Ireland, Kenya and Bangladesh led to some of the most horrific atrocities of the 20th Century.
