anti-colonial struggle

Anti-colonial struggle refers to efforts by people in colonies or territories controlled by foreign powers to gain independence and self-rule. It involves resisting colonial domination through protests, political activism, and sometimes armed conflict. The goal is to reclaim sovereignty, preserve cultural identity, and establish governments that serve their own people rather than foreign interests. These movements often arise from issues of injustice, exploitation, and desire for self-determination, leading to significant social, political, and economic changes in the struggle for independence.
