In academia, the horrors of imperialism get more and more attention each year. In this episode, besides covering the events that unfolded during the Battle of Rorke&#8217;s Drift, we try to capture the ambiguous nature of colonial history. Yes, the last stand of the British soldiers against an overwhelming Zulu force is impressive, but whether or not it should be celebrated is open for debate. We would like to have this conversation in the comments down below, but keep it civil. Any racist, apologist or revisionist comments can lead to a ban.<br \/>\nCheers, The Sabaton History Team. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/quotulatiousness.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Screenshot_2019-10-25-\u201cRorke\u2019s-Drift\u201d-\u2013-The-Anglo-Zulu-War-\u2013-Sabaton-History-038-Official.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/quotulatiousness.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Screenshot_2019-10-25-\u201cRorke\u2019s-Drift\u201d-\u2013-The-Anglo-Zulu-War-\u2013-Sabaton-History-038-Official-480x270.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"480\" height=\"270\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-52010\" srcset=\"https:\/\/quotulatiousness.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Screenshot_2019-10-25-\u201cRorke\u2019s-Drift\u201d-\u2013-The-Anglo-Zulu-War-\u2013-Sabaton-History-038-Official-480x270.png 480w, https:\/\/quotulatiousness.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Screenshot_2019-10-25-\u201cRorke\u2019s-Drift\u201d-\u2013-The-Anglo-Zulu-War-\u2013-Sabaton-History-038-Official-150x84.png 150w, https:\/\/quotulatiousness.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Screenshot_2019-10-25-\u201cRorke\u2019s-Drift\u201d-\u2013-The-Anglo-Zulu-War-\u2013-Sabaton-History-038-Official-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/quotulatiousness.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Screenshot_2019-10-25-\u201cRorke\u2019s-Drift\u201d-\u2013-The-Anglo-Zulu-War-\u2013-Sabaton-History-038-Official-853x480.png 853w, https:\/\/quotulatiousness.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Screenshot_2019-10-25-\u201cRorke\u2019s-Drift\u201d-\u2013-The-Anglo-Zulu-War-\u2013-Sabaton-History-038-Official.png 930w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sabaton History Published 24 Oct 2019 The Battle of Rorke&#8217;s Drift was the last stand for the British defenders, facing thousands of Zulu fighters with only a few hundred of their own.
