Winston Churchill was a staunch imperialist and monarchist who, according to historian Roy Jenkins consistently exhibited a "romanticised view" of both the British Empire and the reigning British monarchy, especially of Elizabeth II, during his last term as British Prime Minister. In the 21st century, his personal views on empire and race became one of the most discussed aspects of his legacy. Churchill made numerous statements which are obviously racist, and his critics have alleged that his personal views on race played a part in various decisions he made throughout his life; these include his response to the Bengal famine of 1943. His defenders, such as historian Andrew Roberts, have described such accusations as being attempts to discredit Churchill that lack factual support.

A partire dalla fine del XX secolo, queste dichiarazioni hanno comportato una revisione dell'eredità storica di Churchill da parte sia di alcuni storici sia del pubblico nell'immaginario comune di famoso leader ed eroe di guerra Egli mostrò diffidenza verso gli ebrei comunisti, ma appoggiò il sionismo e descrisse gli ebrei come: "la razza più formidabile e straordinaria" (it)
