 Definition of racism
 Racism In Fanon’s Easy “Black
skin white mask”
 Racism in India
RACISM
 Racism is the belief in the superiority of one race
over another, which often results
in discrimination and prejudice towards people
based on their race or ethnicity.
 Racism is an ugly word that has been around as
long as humankind itself. Racism actually can be
broken down into two distinct definitions: on the
one hand it simply means that groups of people are
defined by their inherent differences (skin color,
culture, appearance) and that, because of these
differences, one group is seen to be better than the
other.
 The second definition of racism is the unfair
treatment of others based solely on these
differences. Throughout history, humankind has
treated others with contempt and committed
atrocities upon them just because of the color of
their skin or the culture from which they come.
WHAT IS RACISM
 Fanon takes some different examples from
different literary texts and experience and some
real experience for analyzing the psyche of
human nature.
 It is written in Eight chapter
1) The Black man and Language.
2) The Woman of color and the ‘Whiteman’
3) The man of color and the white woman.
4) The so-called Dependency Complex of the
Colonized
5) The Lived Experience of the Black Skin.
6) The Black man and the Psychopathology.
7) The Black Man and Recognition.
