In 1952, a 27-year-old psychiatrist from Martinique published a book arguing that colonialism wasn't just a political system, it was a documented form of collective mental injury, and he had the clinical training to prove it. Frantz Fanon trained as a psychiatrist in France before working in colonial Algeria, and Black Skin, White Masks was his first major work, written while he was still finishing his residency. In it, he argued that colonized Black people are pushed to internalize whiteness as the standard of worth, then measured permanently against a standard they're never allowed to fully reach, producing real psychological damage he treated directly in his own patients. He wasn't writing as an outside observer theorizing about race. He was a clinician diagnosing a condition he watched colonialism actually produce in people. The book became foundational to postcolonial theory and influenced the thinking of civil rights leaders well beyond Africa and the Caribbean. More than 70 years later, people are still assigning it in university courses because the psychological pattern Fanon described never fully went away, it just changed its packaging.

Too many brilliant devs in Nigeria. Can't be a coincidence. 🇳🇬👀

If only there was a book written about it.... then we'd know "What is to be done?"

Evangelicalism has been working hand in hand with imperialists for decades to destroy cultures, families, better systems of education & governancce, and world histories. The entire aim is power & control, and this is why it should be your enemy like zionism is.

Playing this game has made me realize that nobody needs that much wealth. It’s why people have that kind of money and become sexual deviants because there’s nothing else for them to use their money for.
