Winston Churchill was a British politician and former prime minister. He supported the colonization of Australia and the Americas, saying that the indigenous peoples were racially inferior.[1] During the 1943 famine in British-ruled Bengal, he said the Bengalis caused the famine by "breeding like rabbits."[2]
