Frantz Fanon
“To speak a language is to take on a world, a culture.”
Frantz Fanon

Frantz Fanon
“I am black; I am in total fusion with the world, in sympathetic affinity with the earth, losing my id in the heart of the cosmos -- and the white man, however intelligent he may be, is incapable of understanding Louis Armstrong or songs from the Congo. I am black, not because of a curse, but because my skin has been able to capture all the cosmic effluvia. I am truly a drop of sun under the earth.”
Frantz Fanon, Black Skin, White Masks

Frantz Fanon
“When we revolt it’s not for a particular culture. We revolt simply because, for many reasons, we can no longer breathe”
Frantz Fanon

Frantz Fanon
“The oppressed will always believe the worst about themselves.”
Frantz Fanon

Frantz Fanon
“In the World through which I travel, I am endlessly creating myself.”
Frantz Fanon
