Pi Colonialism

When math historians from the US and the West never fail to emphasize the contributions of white mathematicians on the development of the number π, with quasi-zero mention of inputs from their nonwhite counterparts.
With a large proportion of journal articles being published by co-authors from different nationalities or races, to what extent is pi colonialism still being practiced in academic publishing today?

Nativizing Settler Colonialism

The worst type of settler Colonialism. Here the colonizers not only steal the land and kick out the natives but also brainwash their future generations that they are the "true natives". Thus the descendants of the colonizers believe that they are the "natives" that no matter how much someone tries they won't be convinced.

A notable example of Nativizing Settler Colonialism is Arab colonization of Israel.
Palestinians are the real colonizers. Read the history books properly. Jews are the true indigestion people of Israel. The Palestinians aren't colonizers themselves but they are descended from arab colonizers who invaded Israel and stole the land. Zionism is a Decolonization movement but due to brainwashing the Palestinians saw the true natives ,Jews as colonizers and most of the world naturally bought the Palestinian side of the story. This is a popular example of Nativizing Settler Colonialism.

Colonial Murderer

Watson: There seems to be a "C" burnt into the victims body, could this be the work of the Colonial murderer?

A wook but like in colonial times. Often found hanging outside the local tavern bumming pipe tobacco and retelling stories about the fife and drum show from Williamsburg fall 1772.

Colonial spring

A bout of warm, springlike weather toward the end of winter; the opposite of an Indian summer.
I think we ought to dub this period of unseasonably warm weather a 'Colonial spring' because:

1) It wasn't invited and it's not supposed to be here,
2) It seems like a blessing at first, but you suspect a global calamity may be lurking,
3) Its 'gifts' are often laden with nasty surprises like illness and flash flooding, and
4) Things could turn ugly again really quickly, without warning, despite assurances to the contrary.
