Psychology of racism

BollywoodFilms
 Kala chashma jachada hai gore mukhde pe…
 Gori radha ne kalo kaan…
 Kale hai to kya huaa dilwale hai…
What Is color?
 A fact
 Accept certain limitations
 Color here is internalised mindset.
 “The white man is sealed in his whiteness.The
blackman in his blackness.”
 There are no binaries, desire is common to all.
 Ideaofhumanism
 Fanon begins his work with the idea of
humanism.
 “Towards a new humanism
Understanding among men
Our colored brothers
Mankind, I believe in you…
Race prejudice
To understand to love.”
Conclusion:
 All these problems of racial discrimination are
mental constructions.
 It is humanism that is important not color.
 My final prayer:
Oh my body, make me
always a man who
questions…
