Colonial education programs made Negroes into white men then blamed them for their dependence.

Evidence

When a Negro talks of Marx, the first reaction is always the same: “We have brought you up to our level and now you turn against your benefactors. Ingrates! Obviously nothing can be expected of you.” And then too there is that bludgeon argument of the plantation-owner in Africa: Our enemy is the teacher. — Frantz Fanon, Constance Farrington, Black skin, white masks, 134 (#expands, via linked claim)
