For an even better analysis than you could ever get in a university class, I highly recommend reading Domenico Losurdo - Liberalism, a counter-history for a more detailed history of what liberalism is. Even from its very foundations and founding authors, it was white supremacist, pro-slavery, anti-worker, pro-colonialism, pro-workhouse and prison, etc.
