A man standing with every bone visible — but still standing.
He’s guarding his wife and children from scavengers. From cannibals.
From people driven mad with hunger.
This picture is from British-ruled India, during the Great Famine.
It killed more people than most modern wars.
And yet, very few in the Western world have even heard of it.
30 million people have died in Indian famines during British rule.
That’s not a tragedy. That’s a holocaust.
