An individual neurotic’s behavior cannot be generalized into a law of black psychology

Evidence

Just as there was a touch of fraud in trying to deduce from the behavior of Nini and Mayotte Capécia a general law of the behavior of the black woman with the white man, there would be a similar lack of objectivity, I believe, in trying to extend the attitude of Veneuse to the man of color as such. And I should like to think that I have discouraged any endeavors to connect the defeats of Jean Veneuse with the greater or lesser concentration of melanin in his epidermis. — Frantz Fanon, Constance Farrington, Black skin, white masks, 300 (#corroborates, via linked claim)
